WILSON'S MESSAGE PACIFIC Authorities, However; to- Be Held to Strict Account. NEUTRALITY IS ORDERED President, Appearing Before Con' fress in Person, Is Cheered as He Vrges Patience in Deal ing With Neighbor. WASHINGTON, Aug. 27. President Wilson tonight warned all Americans to leave Mexico at once. At the same time the American Embassy and. all consular representatives throughout the Southern republic were Instructed "to notify all officials,- civil and mili tary in Mexico" that they would be held strictly responsible for harm or injury done to Americans or their prop erty. " Secretary Bryan dispatched long tel egrams to the Embassy and all consu lar representatives quoting extracts from the President's address to Con gress today In which he reviewed (he futile peace negotiations with the the Huerta government and the policy the United States would pursue here after toward Mexico. Aid Will Be Provided. In these messages the Consuls were Instructed to give every aid possible to departing Americans, furnishing trans, portation and any other pecuniary as sjstance to the needy. They were in r formed that a sufficient number of ships would be provided to carry away those in the seacoast towns. Foreign governments will be noti fied of the action of the United States, so that they may give similar advice, but -the American Consuls will help - all foreigners in any emergency. Within a day or two an announce ment Is expected of the mobilization of a large number of American troops along the southern frontier to enforce neutrality in the traffic of arms and munitions of war. It is believed that the President not only Is preparing to strengthen the border patrol, but de sires the strictest vigilance by troops already watching the international boundary. These developments followed closely on the reading by President Wilson of his address to Congress today, in which he outlined the policy of the United States toward Mexico as one of absolute non-interference and .strictest neutral ity. The President held out hope for a resumption of negotiations and ulti mate success of a policy of persuasion backed by the moral force of the gov ernments of the world. Gam boa Seada New Note.

Secretary Bryan described the situation as "encouraging." and commented on the fact that he had for several days used the word 'un changed.

Mr. Bryan added that the Gamboa note was In reply to the supplementary suggestions made by Mr. Llnd before leaving Mexico City for Vera Crux. The President was informed of the late developments, but offered no com ment. He was particularly pleased to night with Ills reception In Congress. . Not only from the applause that greeted 4hlm as he began his address and at its conclusion, but through personal con gratulations. President Wilson felt as sured that he had behind him the un divided support of Congress Irrespec tive of political party. Root to Support Policy. . The President had an Informal talk with Senator Root, Republican. In the Speaker's room Just before he was es corted to the House rostrum, and learned that the New York Senator soon I would make a speech In support of the Administration's policy. Mr. Root's ut terances are calculated to attract at tention In Latin America because of his famous tour there a few years ago as Secretary of State. President Wilson went to Congress today and revealed how the Huerta pro visional government In Mexico had re jected the friendship of the United States and its effort to aid In the es tablishment of peace and a government which could be recognised by this Na tion, and which would be obeyed and respected by Mexico's own people. In a statement which breathed re gret and sympathy in every phrase, the President clung tenaciously to op timism as to the ultimate result, not withstanding the pessimistic facts eon fronting the two nations. After pictur ing rbe hopelessness for Mexico If she maintained her present position, "iso lated and without friends who can ef fectually aid her." the President an nounced the necessity of a. firm neutral stand by this Government, a policy of Concluded on Pic SENATE ACTS ON COLUMBIA WORK LUMP APPROPRIATION WANTED FOR NORTH JETTY.
