HARRY K. IS GRANTED A HABEAS CORPUS WR11 PIGES TODIY cjorismoutl) Haila 3imc5. VOLUME TWENTY PORTSMOUTH, OHIO, TUESDAY, APRIL 14, 1914. PRICE THREE CENTS FLEET IS ORDERED TO TANPICO DEMANDS OF MAYO DACKED BY CABINET Washington, April 14-A general concentration of the Atlantic fleet at Tampico was ordered today by Secretary Daniels, after a cabinet meeting in which President Wilson laid before the cabinet the necessity for backing up the demand of Rear Admiral Mayo that the American flag be saluted by the Huerta commander. All the ships of the Atlantic fleet at Hampton Roads have been ordered to Tampico.

The transport Hancock with 800 marines has been ordered from New Orleans to Tampico at once. The battleship South Carolina enroute from San Domingo has been intercepted, via wireless and ordered to Tampico. The gunboat Nashville at San Domingo and Tacoma at Boston also have town ordered to Tampico. The gunboat Flotilla at Pensacola, has been notified to be ready to join the battleships at Tampico on short notice. Washington, April uonfcrsnccs between President Wilson Secretary Bryan mid John Lind arid after a cabinet meeting today, it was decided that before the Washington government goes further in backing up Rear Admiral Mayo's demand for a to the American flag at Tampico as an apology for the recent irreit of marines there, a further investigation would be made into faota surrounding the incident.

All ofciali were lilent on the situation, an admittedly tense one. They let it be known, however, that the delay did not indicate a disposition to change President Wilson's attitude but to afford opportunity to investigate fully Huerta's statement of the affairs and Admiral Mayo's representation to the federal commander. Officials said the administration wished to be fully and completely informed before proceeding further. Officials pointed ont that the difficulty of communication with Tarapico might put off a final determination probably- two or three days. The tensity of the situation is emphasiied by the caution with which officials guard every statement, relating to Admiral Mayo's demands of the firing of the salute.

It is understood that when the cabinet met today information had been received that Huerta, persists in declining to accede to the American admiral's demands, though it is also understood that his decision is not irrevocable, but is couched in such language as to make it appear that he is open to conviction if Mexican honor is not embarrassed by the lalute. Naval officers arc insistent that Admiral Mayo should be fully sustained in his original demand witk a possible allowance for sufficient time for the Mexican foreign office to fairly consider the proposition. This view was also shared by some members of the cabinet when the subject was laid before them today. A demand to the federal commander at Tnmpico to salute the stars and stripes within 24 hours as an apology for the arrest of the American marines last Thursday was prepared. It was understood it would give the Huerta government 24 hours after its receipt to comply.

Inasmuch the United States has recognised no government in Mexico, but regards the southern republic in a state of: anarchy, it has long been realized here that unusual steps could be taken without using extensive and grave measures. bind, who is in Washington, is known to have held for some lime the view thut a more drastic policy should Ite pursued hy i United Stntos in dealing i tluerta. He is understood to have told the president and Secretary Bryan t.liat llnerta would delay and evade the issue just so lone as the United Slated seeini-tl disinclined io ime force.

This feeling has been growing in a i i a i eireles during the last, few months in particular and President Wilson has shown in his talks with callers a rigid firmness mid fixed determination not to temporize with the government but to insist on whatever demands the i States might, make. The naval demonstration ordered today is an uuteome of the events of the Insl eight, months, particularly since the contending forces in Mexico began to disregard the rights of foreigners. Then! was evidence that the president was reluctant to use force in dealing with the situation, but iioiii: the less intended lo demonstrate lo the Huerta government the earncslneiw of this American government.
