HUERTA AGREES TO SALUTE FLAG U. S. ACCEPTING (Continued from Taga One.) mado put ( . nor was any formal atate' ment made describing them. No orders wore issued in the ships al remiy steaming toward Mexico, nor was there any chango In the plans for en forcing President Wilson'" demand. Some officials gava It 'us their personal view j that after Iluerta had compiled with the I demand' tor apology . and, saluted tho ! American flag, some' of the ships now .under way might be turned back, but j certainly not before. It was pointed out that atl admlnlatra , tlon officials w?re gratified by the news ; that Huerta was about to yield, but that mere was no .disposition to temporlta or delay further, -and that alt the plans for action would go as tbey ile until atl cause for it had been removed.. Other dispatches from Charge O'Shaughnessy were expected today, but both President . Wilson and Secretary Bryan were1 convinced by those already, at hand that Iluerta had yielded to the pressure from Washington and the dis patch of the fleet on both coasts to back up the demand. Treasure from Knroptr. Diplomatic representatives- In Mexico City,, under orders from their home for eign ofrices. anxious to avert a break, had pressed Huerta to yield and Mexicans In the United. 8tates had advised him to .apolqglie would bo the beM thing for Mexico. Just, about the time Mr. O'Shaughnessy's dlspatChea were being laid before the president. Charge Algara, representing Huerta hare, waa advised that some dis patches had been received, but was not fully Informed of their nature. He was given to understand that they brough "favorable news." Word of the promised rift In the storm clouds spread quickly to the capltol wMre the house foreign affairs com mittee has Just adopted a resolution sus taining President Wilson in his attitude. Several resolutions were proposed, but one voting to sustain the president was adopted unanimously. The resolution will not be taken before the house unless the crisis should not clear up finally, and Mr. Wilson should find it necessary to lay the situation before congress. Grnflflcatlon and Relief, In tho senate and house generally there was a singled feeling of gratification and relief. Some officials, because of- their long familiarity with the evasiveness of Huerta, ware not Inclined to be too anguine over the dispatches from Charge O'Shaughnessy. Privately, they said they would he convinced when the salute ac tually was fired. Othera who knew of the great pressure brought on Huerta did not, question that ,th dictator had seen the wisdom of yielding. Those offlclnls who know the language of the communication Charge O'Shaugh nessy has been presenting were sure Huerta had been convinced that If he did not yield the American government would compel him to do so by force. The last vestige of any suspicion he may havo had that the United States was bluffing was said to have been re moved by massages from his representa tives In. Washington telling him that (President Wllscon aroused and meant to force the Issue to the end, : It became known that General Iluerta had been led to believe thnf hi. om.en.ent or apology last Saturday was mnpio reareaa; out, when President WI n was appraised of the situation he was not satisfied and domanded a salute. Senator BhlVely said that it was the ln- lornaiionni custom to return Buch salute as is deemed from, the Huerta govern, mont. No necaRnlt(on, Snya ShtTeley. If Huerta- yields." said Senator, ahlvcly; "and should fire thn int. .-. ,, flag, of course the -salute would call for- .um sarnie rrom the American fleet Such return salute could In no way be considered ns a recognition of the Huerta regime. The Huerta government is a de facto government and it the de facto government which haa been asked by the United States, to salute the American colors. It la the lnternaUnn-,1 . return such salutes." Officials polifted out that last .Mi, . proposal to salute the Dolphin with the condition that the Dalphln return the salute was rejected.

Benton, the British ranch owner, was killed In Mexico, the Man chester Guardian, ono of the leading liberal newspapers, says today: " "Intervention which murder and rob bery failed to bring about, fs apparently to be tho punishment for a merely sym bolic slight on American dignity." Expressing its admiration for the abil ity and tho tnbtlvea of President Wilson, the Guardian says It is impossible to sup press doubts nnd misgivings oft h Mexi can policy. It continues: "Why should Villa murder with lm- punlty and Huerta be chastised with the whole strength ot the right arm of the United Statea for a mere breach of In ternational politeness. It would be far easier to bring Villa to a better frame of mind than to teach Huerta. manners. In the one case It would have been' enough to threaten the rebels that the embargo on the exportation of arms and ammunl tlon from the United States would be re Imposed, but what sort ot guarantee Is there that by the capture of Tampico by the American fleet will either mend Huerta's manners ?r relieve the hard ships ot foreign subjects in Mexico or help any ot the Interests President Wll son- Is anxious to serve.
