Departs After Prolonged Meeting of Cabinet At Midnight, and Is Believed Headed for

Vera Cruz.

MEXICO CITY. Aug. 13.—A prolonged cabinet meeting was adjburned just before midnight. President Carba.ial and the ministers separated, going different directions. It is believed they will journey to Villa de Guadaloupe to catch a train for Vera Cruz.
