Washington, April 23.?United sta,t
> States troops moved tonight to rein- the
force the Amorican navy at Vera wa8
Cruz; the embargo on arms into that
Mexico was formally restored, and that
troops were ordered to the Mexican on \
border, primarily to relieve uneasl- COrt
ness among border residents, but also c
r k> as a precaution against hostile an(j
inilitary operations along the inter- ougi
national line.
Secretary Garrison announced that
a brigade of infantry and some artillery,
under Brig. Gen. Fredrick 0>gj
Funston, had been ordered to embark
on the our army transport at
Galveston for Vera Cruz, to support Qpn
the expeditionary forces of marines ,
and bluejackets there. The chance
that Gen. Maas, the federal general, EE
might make a return attack on Vera
Cruz with reinforcements, and fthe
possible necessity of a forward m<Aoment
toward Mexico City to protect 'Mnl
fleeing Americans and the Vera Cruz
railroad, were the underlying reasons
for the military movement. j,
The restoration of the embnrgo on ium
arms was officially announced after ,jRy
the pronouncement of Gen. Carranza, out
the constitutionalist chief, that he re- nogi
garded the seizure of Vera Cruz as a nor.
violation of Mexican sovereignty, had moc
i o been so considered by the administra- an(i
tion. While Mexican constitutional- utte
ists here protested that. Carranza's Ktat
real attitude was friendly, the Amer- mGt
lean government decided to take no fer
chances, and abruptly stopped the jum
shipment of all arms into Mexico. Df /
President Wilson ear'ier In the e(j \
day had issued a statement warning i)0n,
uvo. uarranza, tne consuiutionailsts serv
chief, that the United States was deal mor
log now and would continue to deal ^
with those whom Huerta commands
"and those who come to h's sup>
Port-" Colt
Both Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the ^al(
American charge d'affaires, and
Senor Algara, the charge d'affaires ,
r I\.*
of the Mexican embassy, have been
given their passports. This is not regarded
by the Washington government
as presaging war but a declaration
of war by Huerta would not be a
unexpected. M.
The United States has chosen for
Brazil to look after its interests in not
Mexico. Where there are no Brazil- mur
lan consuls French consuls will act 'vicb
for the United States.

President Denies it is State of War. beei
Vj Washington, April 23.?President ral
Wilson told the Washington corre- 6d 1
spondents today that so far as his au- ter f
thorlty was concerned the United T
States was not in a state of war with Kan
Mexico. ? ,v c,da
i rrwmwii said tnat while
Charge O'Shaughnessy had been forv
giren his passports and Charge Al-? r>eri
gara had been granted his In return'. cr'nr
such a step, while always preoediiffe r
war, did not always result In war. mot
Mr. Wilson explained the American new
government was somewhat surprised mot
by the Issuance of passports to ca*e
O'Sbaughnessy. whe
The president referred to the orlsis pon<
as serious and said he thought It was befo
his duty In discussing It now to eon- in*
fine himself to facts, not revealing fujn
what steps of policy would be tahen pCflt
/ In the future. No orders have been
issued to the army, he said,'nor hhs mor
the embargo on arms been restored tbe
with reference to the constitutionallata.
Mr. Wilson said he considered the
nvin inun mi LHKPii as reprisals and |
measures "short of war." 8l
At present the president pointed ton
out that military operations were eon Govt
v fined merely to holding Vera Cruz toda
, and its outskirts. No blockade has Sess
been declared. evtd
