The eight; Republicans and four tne Federal Gunboats Have Anchored In Pamico River Under General 1 Huerta's Insvruetiona. Washington. General Huerta's ac tion, suspending the order to blockade Tampico against the delivery of am munition ' by. the, steamer Antilla I to the . Constitutionalists', served to dis pel apprehension over a new- crisis between the United States and the Huerta government which had threat ened mediation of Mexican affairs. . Though Washington .officials ex pressed satisfaction over Huerta s action, it was persistently suggested unofficially that the blockade ' had been suspended only conditionally as a result 01" conferences between tne South American mediators and the Mexican and 'American delegates . Niagara Falls. It also was said the Antilla might be diverted in her course through an agreement with officials of the Ward Line, her owners and an American corporation. President Wilson and Secretaries Bryan and Daniels gave evidence' of great relief over the date develop ments which temporarily at least, nave averted another clash at arms. From no official source was there con firmation of reports that Huerta had no understanding with the mediators or the United States whiA" would, as sure him that the Antilla s cargo would not be delivered. Meanwhile nothing has been heard; from the. An tilla; which is due to arrive off Tampi co Wednesday morning V ( ? v . - v secretary Bryan was first informed of Huerta's - suspension of the block ade order by Mr. Riano, the ' Spanish ambassador, early in the day.! The Secretary declined to discuss reports from Niagara Falls that General Huerta had merely suspended his blockade order at the request, of the South American mediators, pending settlement of questions relating to an armistice. , One important question said to have been raised at Niagara Falls was whether the United States construed the mediation agreement to obligate it to prevent arms entering Tampico which the Huerta government had de clared closed. If the United States did not so construe the cessation of hostilities, which ,it was assumed would be' held inviolate, the mediators are said to have wanted to know whether this government would con sider it a breach of faith should Huerta's gunboats attempt to stop the Antilla's cargo of ammunition for Car ranza's forces. !

If Agreement Can Secure That. He says He Will Be Satisfied by Other Method. : ; . Niagara Fallsi No conditions are attached to Gen. Huerta's promise to resign the Mexican presidency as soon as his country Is "politically pac ified" His delegates to the mediation conference took occasion to say pub licly that he does not intend to hide behind technicalities, r The Mexican delegation had con cluded that its recent statement set ting forth the attitude of Gen. Huerta towards demands for his retirement was misinterpreted in some quarters. It had been said that under the lan guage of his pledge to retire when the country was politically pacified, Gen. Huerta might insist on holding office until all guerilla ' bands were dispersed. On that account another statement was issued by -the Huerta delegation. It reads. "Mr. Rabaza, of the Mexican dele gation has been asked what is the interpretation given by the Mexican delegates to the word 'politically' in the statement declaring that. Gen. Huerta is prepared to withdraw pro vided that at the time of his with drawal 'Mexico shall be politically pacified'; and if he thinks that an agreement between the two contend ing parties would not be considered as' fulfilling Gen. Huerta's condition. "To the above, question Mr. Ra baza answers that the expression used by the delegation does not mean that Gen. Huerta xdeFiandsril inatef rial pacification of the country " nor the dispersal of the last of the groups of bandits which overrun many paTts of it, making the revolution a pretext for their lawlessness; but, that peace shall be assured by. political means WANTED -3' All kinds of Medicinal Roots, Herds; 'Barks, etc Wanted, Highest market prices paid for Wool; Hides; Beeswax and ' Ginseng.
