VERA GAUL FODD Fflf#&s:é':" SUPPLY-IS SHORT) Sovorniir of srale Wnnld Starve Carr flllZfl’ Eager tll Out Americans, Show Attitude. PARADE AT CHIHUAHUA Halts Procsssion to Greet Newspaper Men, Vera Cruz, May 4.—The situation at Tampico and the effort of the Mexi- can governor of the state to cut off the food supply of Vera Cruz divided attention here. The reported massing of the Consti- tutionalist forces against Tampico is regarded as important, because it is felt that the fall of the city will have some bearing on the immediate pol- icy of the United States. Many persons who are well in- formed of the federal preparedness in Tampico are ‘skeptical of the pre- dictions of an early rebel success. They point out that federal gunboats have. thus far easily repelled the at- tacks. 3 ] The fall of Tampico into rebel hands might help solve the food situ- ation in Vera Cruz. In that event it is presumed the trade between Vera Cruz and Tampico would supply the market here to some extent. Just now the only supplies reaching Vera Cruz are coming from the small ranches near enough to the city for owners to feel assured ol American protection. TIRED OF BEING THE GOAT Melien Threatens to “Blow the Lid Off” New Haven Officers. ‘Washington, May 4.—A threat by Charles S. Mellen to “blow the lid off” New Haven financial affairs, was read into the record of the inquiry be- ing conducted by the’ interstate com- merce commission into former trans- actions of New Haven officials. The letter was written by Mellen to Wal- ter E. Reed of New York, who te-ti fied at the day’s hearings of trans .c- tions between the New Haven rrad and the Metropolitan steamship line, which he organized. In it the former head of the New Haven declared he was tired of being “the guat” for all offenses charged by the New Haven and unless this stop- ped. he proposed to sav thinga. THOUSANDS OF WOMEN JOIN SUFFRAGE MARCH Parades Held in Al the Prin- cipal Cities. Chihuahua, Mex., May 4—A review of the troops headed by Carranza and Villa was held here. The two leaders, members of the cabinet and the mili- tary staffs and a number of lesser officials took part in a love feast al the gubernatorial palace. As the troops were passing the Foreign club General Carranza espied an American newspaper man among the spectators. He halted the procession while he turned aside to shake the foreigner's hand. k ‘The act was plalnly intended to make evident to Mexican onlookers that the official attitude toward mericans is friendly. In fact every Mexican understands that anti-foreign agitation or - demonstration means death to the offender. ‘When Carranza leaves here it is un- derstood the rebel capital moves with him, first to Torreon and then, with lttle delay, to Monterey. From the latter city he will direct the cam- palgns against Tamplco, Saltillo and, after that, against San Luis Potosi, Zacatecas and Aguas Calientes. The rebel-American phase of the occupation of Vera Cruz, which for a time after the issuance of Carranza’s note to Secretary Bryan looked grave, is considered closed. General Carranza assumes, and is belleved to have official reason for so doing, that the Americans will leave Mexican soil at once upon the com- plete trlumph of the revolution. SHIPWRECK INQUIRY ASKED Government Requested to Investigate Lack of Harbor Signals. Duluth, May 4.—An Investigation of the conditions that contributed to the loss of the steamer Benjamin Noble with her crew of nieteen in the storm that swept Lake Superior last week will be hastened by an appeal that M.

Mr. Spelman will advise the com- mittee to investigate the lack of ad- equate signals, both light and fog horns, at the entrance to the harbor here.

New York women contented them- selves with a series of open air meet- ing in various public squares and a huge mass meeting in the evening. The staid streets of Philadelphia were enlivened by a parade of suffra- gists, most of whom carried bunches of daffodils, while anti-suffragists sported red roses, in distinction from their marching sisters. Pittsburg suffragists paraded and later attended a mass meeting. Kan- sas City women staged a motor car parade and distributed hundreds of leaflets telling the ned of women’s votes. Hundreds of other cities joined in the nationwide celebration of the day. MOSQUITOES AT VERA CRUZ General Gorgas Recommends Funds to Take Precautions. Washington, May 4.—Detention of American troops at Vera Cruz for an indefinite period during progress of mediation has suggested the neces- sity of special precautions against disease. The beginning of the rainy seasonm, bringing with it myriads of mosqui- toes regarded as germ carriers, has induced General Gorgas, surgeon gen- eral of the army, with his Panama experience in mind, to recommend the immediate allotment of a larger sum of money for sanitary measures. Pro- tection of the troops in their sleeping quarters, wholesale vaccination against smallpox, the administra- tion of typhoid prophylaxis and other necessary precautions will be taken.

Washington, May 4.—Under author: Ity of the president, Secretary of War Garrison has issued a proclamation calling upon the people. in_the strike | * district of Colorado to surrender arms and ammunition to the United States army officers now in charge at the various troubled localities. Secretary “Garrison’s proclamation, addressed to Major Holbrook at Trini.| dad, is in the most sweeping terms|: and demands the disarming of not only strikers but the mine guards. The text of the proclamation is: and ammunition so delivered. above applies te individuals, firms, sociations and corporations.” Secretary Garrigon’s determination to issue the proclamation for the sur- render of arms was reached after ma- ture deliberation upon reports from Major Holbrook at Trinidad. The government assumes all respon. sibility for the protection of property. Emphagis was laid upon the fact that the sweeping terms of the proclamation -calling “all “not in the military service of the United States” to surrender their arms applies only to localities where the United States troops are present: Rl R R DIES AFTER.
