AMERICAN FLEET IS ! ORDERED TO TAMP1CO TO FOKCK MKXHOTO MARK A POL-I OUY. Eleven iiiir Shji> with 1 Men to I'n U-iriiV ii\f R<i. I ?CU f\ l J? .'IH J V ViUVI ?W1 V pa rat i<? n. Washington, April 14.?President Wilson oday ordered virtually the entire A la..tic fleet to Mexican waters xj force a public salute to the Stars and Stripes t'rem the Huerta govern-1 lr.ent as an apol gy for the arres? of American sailors at Tampico last] Thursday. No ultimatum has been hnt i?< no snecified time has; been set within which tr.e Huerta | government must comply, but the1 iia\al demonstration has been ordered1 | as a concrete evidence of the fixed de-, termination of the United Sates to.1 back up Rear Admiral Mayo's de-' mand for a salute. Up to Tonight J Gen. Hureta had not made satisi'ac-J tor.y response to that demand. "Future development depend on Huerta himself," was the way a high i administration official close to the president summarized the situation. The decision to send the fleet was * reached after the president and Secretary Bryan had conferred for an v>/-v,ir. Trkhn T.inri nersnnal reDre senta:ive of the president in Mexico, and after a two-hour cabinet meeting, during which dispatches from j Charge O'Shaughnessy revealed that | the Huer:a government disputed the j right of American marines to be ashore at Tampico and contended that its recent public statement of apology was ample. Fleet Makes Ready. Immediately after the cabinet meeting adjourned Secretary Daniels issued his orders to the Atlantic fleet and wireless messages flashed up and j down the Atlantic coast to put the I flee: under steam for Tampico. It will be the largest fighting force the American gorvenment has assembled for possible action since tile, Spanish American war. Eleven grea: battleships with auxiliaries, carrying in all about 15.000 men, will comprise the force off Tampico. j Everywhere, at the White House, the State department and the navy department. :he hope was expressed that t>e dispatch of the fleet would not lead to se'"ious consequences and There was a confident prediction anion? administration officials that Huerta w uld satisfy tlie American cl mand and close the incident. Officials were careful to point out tnit negotiations wi:h :he Huerta government hud not ended and that The way was still open to Gen. Huerta to make amends. Meanwhile t'.:e navy department sent comple'e instructions to Rear Admiral Badger, commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet, on board the battleship Arkansas at Hamptcij Roads. Rear Admiral Fiske, chief of c the bureau of operations, left here for thp Roads tonigh: :o convey personally to Admiral Badger the diplo. . _ - ^ Neuralgia I sufferers find instant relief in Sloan's Liniment.

"The Rhode Island, Virginia ana Georgia are now docking: it had not been decided yet whether they will join Admiral Badger's forces. "The transport Hancock will leave Xew Orleans for Tampico today with i'he firs: regiment of the expeditionary force of marines." The foregoing ships are in addition to the Utah, Connecticut, Minnesota, Des Moines, Chester, Dolphin and San Francisco at Tampico and the Florida and Prairie at Vera Cruz. The torpedo boat flotilla at Pensacola, Fla., has been ordered t* s:and by for orders. While the navy moved on the At laatic coast, Secretary Daniels toright was giving his attention to tho situation in the Pacific. Most of the American warcraft in the Pacific already are in Mexican waters. Army Sot in It While the navy was active, there was no army movement. Two explanations for this were advanced? j the desire of northern Mexico, should i not misinterpret the action, and the j fact that the United States already i I has a big fighting force within striking distance cf Mexico. Twelve thou-: sand troops are at Texas City, where four army transport are at anchor, i and thousands of cavalry and infan- j try are spread along the border where they can be moved quickly. ! High administration officials do not, expect critical developments, but they I are prepared for any emergency.! Secretary Bryan, who is ill, had intended :o leave .onight for Miami, Fla. He canceled his reservation and announced that he would stay in Washing; on indefinitely. Senator Sliiverlv, acting chairman of the sen-' ate foreign relations committee, con-1 ferred with Mr. Bryan and called at; the White House as well. He said that at the regular meeting of the' committee tomorrow lie would transmit all the inf >rma ion he had ob-1 tained today. The sta us of the case as summed ; uj; by cabinet officers and other officials was described as fo.lows: "Assistant Paymaster Charles C. Copp and a boat load of marines land-: ed at iTampico last Thursday ;o ob-1 tain supplies. They were arrested,; uui later aiscnargea. 111 accordance, with regulations in all navies of the ; world, Rear Admiral Mayo, on can-1 sidering that an unwarranted arrest had been made, and that the uni-: ! form of the American navy had been j disregarded, demanded reparation in the of a salute of 21 guns. The American flag, while not taken ashore, was flying at "he stern of the whale-j boat and all the marines were in uni-! form. ^ Gave More Time. "Rear Admiral Mayo allowed the Huer.a commander until 6 o'clock j that evening to fire a salute but later j extended the time to afford the local j commander an opportunity to com-1 municate wi-;h his superior officers in Mexico City. A statement of apology was issued in Mexico City by Gen.j Huerta and the officer who arrested l the marines was ordered punished.! This did not satisfy the United Sta:es government and a salute was insisted , on. Gen. Hiierta himself at no time agreed :o comply, but an undersec-! retary in the Mexican foreign office! did inquire of Charge O'Saaughnessy if a salu:e fired to the gunboat Doi- i phin and responded to by the Ameri-! ! can ship would be acceptable. This j was emphatically rejected by the. United States, and word was sen* that! I nothing short of a public salute ;o the American flag would be satisfac- | tory." This was the situation laid before, the cabinet roday by the president., Some administration officials were in- j dined to wait f Jr mere facts and do ( nothing until an investigation had, been completed. Others suggested thai Huerta "ftould evade the issue and; delay and that prompt and vigorous action was necessary. . John Lind, it is understood, in his conference with the president and j Secretary Bryan had counseled a j forceful move. For two hours the cab- j inet discussed the pros and cons and; the possible consequences of drastic action, and the plan of sending the i TWO WOMEN j AVOID j | OPERATIONS i ?] r d- i. uy i aivuig jujruia j_,.
