Wb ay have happened to 40 Ameri can employes of the Cortez Oil Company, captured hv rehel np Tampico and held with the com pany e property for ransom, re mained a mystery tonight, although the rebel raid occurred last Sun day morning.

Department officials would not admit In any formal way that they felt nv uneasiness because of the lack of Information. It was Indi cated that the delay in a complete Clearing un or the situation was it regarded as unusual.
