NO ARMS FOR MEXICO. SHIPMENT Ol Ml MTIONS FROM UNITED ST VI ES I'ltOIIIHl'l ED. Huerta <i'?\? rnni' iM Placed on Same l ooting as the Constitutionalists finil It i> Hoped Therebj to Bring tin End to Hostilities. Washington, July i1::. -President Wilson ha determined that no fa< ti<?n hi the present Mexican rev Hon shall obtain arms or annnuni,. . from the United States and th;<t neu tralitv must be observed in its Btrict est sense. This was the Interpreta? tion of the neutrality laws decided upon by the president today after conferences with Senator Bacon ami tteprescntalve Flood, chairman of the tw.ngresslonal committees on for? eign relations. Wliile the Mexican rebels have been getting no arms heretofore, today's development means that the Huerta administration will he deprived of the Privileg?? previously accorded the Ma? den? government ami that the United States will treat all sides alike in the present dispute. The situation was pre<ipitaed by the repeated complaints of constitu? tionalists ami their sympathisers hi this country that if the United states did not vitally assist the Huerta gov? ernment by Helling it munitions of war, a termination of hostilities would be possible. Sentiment in favor of a new policy grew in congress to sm-h extent that today a canvass was made of tile committees in both houses deal? ing with foreign relations. It was found there would he little i objection to repealing the joint reso? lution of March 14, 1912, which gives the president discretlonsry power to prohibit exportation! of arms or mu? nitions of war to countries where do ' mestic violence existed, hut permits him to allow the legally constituted governn enl of any country to buy j war supplies as usual. Senator Bacon, however, reiterated as he left the W hite House today that the Huerta administration could not be consid? ered as the legitimate successor of the j Madero regime or a legally constl t uted government. The constitutionalists representa? tives here had protested to the state department that inasmuch as the Huerta government had not been rec I ognlzed it ought not to obtain arms. This construction of the < ose found j favor in official circles, and while the (repeal of the resolution of March H, 1912, was considered by administra? tion officials as one way of equalising ! conditions, it was decided that the ; same purpose could be observed by denying ammunition to all factions. There nevertheless is a llrm feeling in congress* In favor of lifting the em? bargo on arms and giving both sides ati equal opportunity to equip them? selves. This sentiment finds favor es pec ially among those who believe that the Carranza rebels have public opin? ion behind them In Mexico and if given the aims with which to supply their large unequipped forces, tin revolution would end speedily In their favor. For tin- present, however, the ad? ministration will issue orders to its agents everywhere to keep arms from i entering the rebellion-torn country. ' This will interfere materially with the plans of the Huerta forces, since or? ders for largo supplies of aims and I ammunition are said t<> hav e been I placd reeentl) with firms in the Unit I ed States. j Although the constitutionalists hold i no seaports of consequence, they have ! demoralized the railroad systems, and ) it would be difficult for the federals I to get munitions transported Into the j interior after importing them from j Kurnpe. Tho president canvassed other I phases of the Mexican situation with Messrs. Bacon and Flood, who said ! later that no action of any kind oi ? pronouncement of policy was likely I until after Ambassador Wilson had conferred with administration oili cials here. Acting Secretary Roosevelt confer? red this afternoon with Rear Admiral j Krank KS. Bcatty, commander of the j fourth division of the Atlantic fleet, , w ho has just returned with his flau ship, the Minnesota, from a tour of di.tv in tin- <ulf Mr. Roosevelt said afterward that the conference was entirely unofficial and informal; that I ho sought to obtain Ii rat-hand the im I pressions w hich Admiral Iteatty gain od while In Mexico.

In facti there was but one company or? dered home, that being Company If Bam berg*, and this order was issued by Col. Julius K.

"In the case of Company I, Orangf - burg, and Company F.
