staff depart on the evening train for
Vera Cruz.
The employes of the Waters-Pi r e
Oil Company, an American corporation.
and their families, numbering about
seventy persons, left here to-night on
three special cars for Vera Cruz, pre?
paratory to taking passage on a
steamer for the United States.
Exodus from Cspitsl.
All sorts of rumors were current.
Many persons who were rontemplatinr
leaving the country in the near future
made hurried preparations and caught
the night train to Vera Cruz, preferring
to wait for steamer accommodations
there to remaining in the capital.
Mr. Lind was said to have received
messages from Vera Cruz, urging him
to return at once for fear the railroad
would be cut.
The uneasiness was accentuated by
the receipt by a number of persons of
messages from relatives and friends in
the United States urging their immedi?
ate departure from Mexico.
The rebels began a campaign last
night directed at the interruption of
truffle between the capital and Vera
Cruz. Their first efforts were highly
successful, for they seized silver bullion
and currency estimated at a value of
nearly one million pesos.
A train was held up on the main line
of the Inter-Oceanic Railway, about
one hundred miles from Mexico City.
The engine and train crews were
beaten, but the passengers were not
mistreated to any great extent, al?
though they were robbed of all iheir
, aluablcs. From the express car the
rebels took a large quantity of silver
and currency which had been shipped
by the government and a big silver
t>ulllon consigned by the Real del Monte
L'ompany.
Vera Cruz. Nov. l'J.?The personal
effects of Mr. Lind were removed to?
night from the hotel where he had lived
in Vera Cruz to the American Con?
sulate.
WILSON TO ADOPT
A MILITANT POLICY
Blockade Would Be First Step
After Breaking of Diplo?
matic Relations.
[From Th? Tribun" Bureau 1
Washington. Nov. 12. ? Action,
affirmative and definite, by the ad?
ministration in the Mexican situation
is expected in a short time. The ma?
chinery has already been set in mo?
tion with the defined object of "elim?
inating Huerta." A pronouncement of
American policy will come soon, Secre?
tary Bryan said to-day, and he called
attention to the fact that he had
.dropped the use of the word "encourag?
ing" In speaking of the situation.
it is obvious that the crisis is ap?
proaching rapidly, and it is believed
that before the end of the week the
President will issue a statement of pol
i? y which will tell what has been done
and the course he intends to pursue in
the future.
There is especial reason to believe
that this will be a militant course.
If diplomatic relations were broken
Mr. O't?haughnessy would turn over
the archives and business of the em
? bassy to a diplomatic colleague.
I It Is understood that the Norwegian
Minister has been selected for this
purpose. Another report is that the
Argentine Minister will be the recipient
of the confidence. An advantage of the
selection of the latter would be the im?
plied compliment to a Latin-Americi n
power, and the administration is more
than eager that Latin America shall
not misconstrue America's action in
Mexico.
The establishment of a blockade of
Mexican ports, in order to cut off
Huerta's supply of customs revenues
and of munitions of war, Is regarded an
the logical step to follow the breaking
of diplomatic relations. This is re?
garded as more probable than the lift?
ing of the embargo on arms for the
rebels.
It is possible that the crisis will be
precipitated by an incident which
threatens at Tuxpam, a coast town in
the State of Vera Cruz, the centre of
the oil industry and the site of great
storage tanks of oil, British and Amer?
ican. The situation there is regarded
at? serious, although Rear Admiral
Boush on the 1 ttleship Louisiana re?
ported to the Navy Department to-day
that there was no immediate need of
protection to American property in that
vicinity. He has assured Consul Pay-ne
that the Louisiana will afford asylum
for Americans and other foreigners.
The American gunboat Wheeling Is
also t er.>. and the authorities on both
aides, federal and rebel, have been in?
formed that they must not molest for
etsa proj?crty. The American ships are
prepared to take action to this end. It
is expect??d, according to the latest ad?
vices, that Tuxpam will shortly fall in
the- hands of the rebels. It is consid?
ered possible that the rebels will take
revenge on the property of the British
oil concerns which are supposed to nave
been supporting Huerta.
LONDON AWAITS MESSAGE
President Wilson's Mexican
Document of Great Interest.
I By ?'?bit to Tl.? Tribun?-. 1
London, Nov. J.''.?"The Times" pub?
lishes a dispatch from Washington
which describes the message which
Secretary Bryan says is to be issued
soon of the utmost importance In set?
ting forth Wilson's "*oUcy for the elimi?
nation of Hin-rta. The dispatch says:
W?? have reason to believe the ittl
tud? of the British government in re?
gard to the dispute between the Cr.it ?i
?States and Mexico remains strictly in
accordance with the spirit of Asqulth's
(Millhall speech, an attitude of non-in
i'iventlon with a background of sym?
pathy and good will toward tHe Cnlted

' Should Huerta allow his conduct to
be influenced by any assumption that
he Is lll.ely to enjoy active ur passiv?
support '?-.mi Great Britain, he is 'ikr'1-,
to be undeceived. Fending the delini

"The idea of President Wilson is that

consequently ho purposes to associate
all republics with himself In counsel,

is striking, and is likely, if successful,
to have trem? ndous consequences.'1

Sewall represented tliat the "History

a Washington memorial at Valley l'orge
and that the name Of each subscriber
would be placed on the memorial tablet.
Kuno von Weiden, s saleesaao -tal
employed by Barr?a, eras the first wit?
ness. He said Marrie had told him that
Will? ts was "a good thing." as he ha<i
sold him books at Yale. He said B
gave a dinner at a restaurant in I'
Place to Sewall an?! buns? If for selling
many books t?> a Mrs. McLean. ?>f
Brooklyn., Barric asked aV wall how bs
managed It, he said, and Sewall said he
worked the "poor student's game." Von
Weiden testified that Barric told
Bewail to "give Willets the same game."
?'ounscl for Barrie brought out that
Bewail didn't try to sell Willets the
tnost expensive books, and William
Band, Jr., for the defendant, SSBSd
Von Weiden why that was n?>t done.
"That's what I don't understand," the
witness replied. "I've been kicking
myself around the block about it ever
since."
Mr. Willets on the stand corroborated
the testimony of Von Weiden as far as
he was able. He said Sewall r?'pre
SOntod himself as a medical student
who had discovered a serum of great
value to mankind, and if he would only
buy his books Willets would be doing a
kindness to mankind.
He said Sewall said that the hooks
could be sold at a great profit, and on
the strength of that the witness gave
the agent a thirty-horsepower nuto
mohile and a diamond stickpin.
Sewall, he said, gave him soma
household ornaments and several the?
atre tickets. Sewall will be a witness
to-day.
