WASHINGTON, D. C., May 8.—High tension marked the Mex-
ican situation today, both on the military and diplomatic side.
The War Department was the chief center of activity, and while
no authoritative statement was made beyond Secretary Garrison's
formal reply: "That no orders for additional troop movements have
been sent," it became known that the department was considering
the sending of additional troops to Vera Cruz and probably would
do so. This step would not be intended as an aggressive measure,
but as a precaution.
Of equally serious portent to the troop preparations was the re-
port late in the day that two German merchant ships were about to
arrive at Puerto, Mexico, with arms and ammunition for Huerta.
It was realized that this would present an incident similar to the
arrival of the Ypiranga at Vera Cruz, which led to the American oc-
cupation of that port.
Huerta's protest to the mediators that the United States had
broken the armistice by landing additional troops at Vera Cruz was
! considered by the Cabinet and later Secretary Rryan announced that
the reply of this Government stated that no aggressive steps had been
taken by the United States forces and that nothing had been done
o violate the suspension of hostilities.
Armistice Not Violated
The American reply was delivered to the mediators late today.
The mediators themselves also took the view that the question raised
by Huerta over the observance of the armistice could be cleared away
and that Huerta could be convinced that the United States had not
violated, in spirit at least, the armistice.
The Cabinet meeting brought a general discussion of the situation. It
was said after the meeting (hat there was little doubt as to the sending of ad-
ditional forces, wholly for precautionary purposes. It also became known ihat
inquiries had been made of the governors of States to ascertain the condition
of National guards and how soon they could be prepared for active service.
This also is a precautionary measure. Indications are that if National
guards are called on they would not be sent out of the country but woull be
used on the Texas border.
The discussing of reinforcing General Funston at Vera Cruz has developed
a marked difference of opinion in the Cabinet. Some take the view that the
mediation negotiations might be embarrassed by such an act. Others belicvo
it a necessary precaution.
General Funston is understood to have told the War Department that nil
lines are vulnerable at different points and that a sudden attack along 'he rail*
way would necessitate the withdrawal of forces from other points which woul€
be left unprotected. He has informed the War Department that he will need
15,0()0 to 18,000 men lo hold Vera Cruz and outlying districts.
Secretary Garrison today said no orders had been issued for any troop
movement, but it became known authoritatively that contracts had been made
for the chartering of several merchant steamers and that within a day or two
tormal orders would be issued.
It is understood that within two weeks at least nine transports will have
been secured, Secretary Garrison declined to discuss the chartering of the
steamers. The only thing he would say was:
"There is no contemplated aggressive movement at this time."
\ot an Aggressive Act
This is in line with the altitude of other high officials of the Administra*
tion. who contend that the sending of reinforcements to General Funston is
not an aggressive act and does not violate the arrangements for a suspension
of hostilities.
The fact that army officers had recommended the sending of at least
50,000 to 60,000 men to Vera Cruz, became known generally in executive quart-
ers. A number of officials admitted that the Administration was confronted
with the problejn of deciding whether it would limit its military activities to
protecting the forces already at Vera Cruz or whether a sufficient number ol
men would be placed in readiness at Vera Cruz for a flying expedition to
Mexico City in case the Huerta regime collapsed and irresponsible band!
