Show I WARSHIPS ORDERED HOME. Announcement Made by State Department Depart-ment That American Vessels Will Not Patrol Coasts of Mexico. New York. The Mexican embassa-. dor and the Mexican minister of finance received assurances from Washington Monday night which convinced con-vinced them there is sincere co-operation between the administration of President Taft and that of President Diaz. It is not professed that all the tension ten-sion has been relieved, and while American Am-erican troops remain in force on the Mexican border it is admitted some tension will continue, but apprehension apprehen-sion was appreciably lessened by the piece of news. First in importance was a long telegram tele-gram to Embassador De La Barra from the state department announcing announc-ing that the American warships assigned as-signed to patrol duty on the Pacific and gulf coasts of Mexico had been ordered to call at Mexican ports only for coal and then withdraw promptly. This action is reassuring to Sendr Limontour. In a recent interview he said he could consider only the presence pres-ence of American men of war in American Am-erican waters, so far distant from their base at Galveston, as part of an unnecessary effort to impress on Mexico Mex-ico the power of the United States. |
