Our force will repair ice plant.” Fifth Brigade Arrives At Vera Cruz Port . Vera Cruz, April 28.—The trans- ports bringing the TFifth Army Bri- gade comprising the Fourth, Seventh, Nineteenth and Twenty-Eighth In- fantry regiments under Brigadier- General Fredel'lcgo Funston, were made fast at the cks shortly before 10 o’clock this morning. Brigadier-General Funston, accom- panied by Captain Harry McL. P. Huse, chief of staff of Rear Admiral Fletcher, immediately came ashore to confer with Rear 'Admiral Fletcher .before calling on Rear Admiral ‘Badger, commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet. Captain Huse had called on Brig- adier-General Funston after break- fast and had presented the compli- ments of Rear Admiral Fletcher ex- plaining that the admiral desired to talk with the -general regarding his plans and to lay before him any- thing he wished to know concerning what had already been done and to tell him what positions were held by the naval force on land. General Funston was busily occu- pied after breakfast in writing dis- patches, most of them to the war department. There was at least one of them, however, which had noth- ing to do with the army or the gov- ernment. It was a reply to a de- spatch he had received telling him of ‘the birth yesterday of a daugh- ter. Second Official Hoisting of Stars and Stripes ‘While Captain Huse was wajting to sge General Funston there took place a.second official hoisting of the Stars and Stripes. The American flag for the first time since 1847 was raised over the tower of the fortress ptison of San Juan De Uloa from which the Mexican colors had been removed yesterday. Rear Admiral Fletcher and Briga- dier-General Funston, when they met, went over in detail the situation of Vera Cruz, which had previously been é2plained to Brigadier-General Funs- ton by Captain Huse. The arrival of the soldiers was not marked by any great ceremony. The few Mexican laborers working about the dpgks looked -om -a4 - the fresh force. without. displaying any inter- est. > In addition to the infantrymen who arrived today Company E, of the En- gineers Corps, the Sixth Cavalry Reg- iment, the Fourth Field Artillery and the Third Field Ambulance company are on their way here. Consul - Canada at Vera Cruz re- ported that a refugee leaving Cordoba Sunday informed him that no Andferi- can property there had been disturbed and "that Americans there were be- ing detained to prevent mob violence. All. Americans at the Hacienda Pot- rero, including Superintendéht H. W. Hayer, were taken to Cordoba and held. He had no information as to/ Americans at Tachuca, but said that those detained at Orizaba were Te- ported well cared for. . Railroad Is Being Rapidly Destroyed Consul Canada further reported that the railroad between Vera Cruz and Mexico City is being: rapidly de- stroyed between Tejaria and the cap- ital.- The ties were being burned ‘and the rails loaded .on cars and carried away. 4 The consul also reported that he had received assurances from the Bra- zilian minister in Mexico City that no Americans have been killed or were in danger, or none imprisoned ex- cept one at Aguas Calientes, who was delivered to the judicial authorities, ‘“gome proofs having been found of his connivance with the revolution- ists.” Consul Blocker reported that Ciudad Porfirio Diaz is tompletely deserted the federzls having retreated to Tos- alia after a severe defeat by the Car- Tanza forces. Brigadier-General Funston called on Rear Admiral Badger later and talked ofer with him his plans for the land- ing of the troops. An agreement was reached regarding the positions the soldiers were to occupy. The infantrymen will take charge of the positions along the outer linc as soon as they come ashore. The seamen are to be relieved by detachment and will return to their ships. " » The complete exchange between the soldiers and the sailors will not be accomplished before tomorrow. The landing of the infantry- regi- ments was ordered to be carried out later in the day. from American Consul Canada through a messenger who returned to Vera Cruz today. W. H..Mechling of the geological survey of Canada, who has beéen for some time in Mexico in behalf of the universities of Harvard, Pennsyl- vania and Columbia, spent two days at Cordoba. He was detained, but not in jail, and finally was permitted to proceed here as an Englishman, though he is in reality an American. Mechling went to the jafl in Cor- doba Sunday afternoon and talked to the prisoners, among whom are sev- eral he is acquainted with. They begged him to communicate - their plight to Consul Canada and Rear Admiral Fletcher, The prisoners are herded like .cat- tle and are jeered almost constantly either by the keepers or the Mexican inmates of the jail. They are per- mitted to have food and drink only wher! the whim suits the jailers, and are frequently threatened with death. Among the prisoners is a =~ young Mexican woman with an infant four monthg old. There are several other women and 'children, and the total number of all nationalities, according to Mechling, is eighty-five. Host of John Lind Among Prisoners One of the imprisoned men is Su- perintendent Emery of the Vista Her- mosa sugar plantation of Vera Cruz state, who. entertained John Lind, President Wilson’s representative, a few months ago. Meohling says eighty-seven per- sons, chiefly Americans from sur- rounding plantations, are held at Tuxtepec, and that Consular Agent Wite is in jail at El Hule, near Tux- tepec. Mechling left Tuxtepec last Wed- nesday with a pass giving an assumed name and his nationality as British. An excited crowd of Mexicans sur- rounded the train and It was with dif- ficulty that he persuaded them to al- low him on board. At El Burro an- other mob searched the = train and robbed him of all his money except two bills, which he had hidden in his shoes. At Tierra Blanca, fourteen whites and thirty-two'negroes were brought aboard the train. A. mob met the train at Cordoba and shout- ed insults at the Americans. E. B. Weems, a sugar :plantation owner who was previously held at Cordoba, escaped by descending the river in a launch to Alvarado. He arrived safely in Vera Cruz and sailed for the Uniteq States on the stéamer Mexico yesterday. Terminal Property : Seized By Fletcher Vera Cruz, April 28.—Rear Admiral Fletcher last evening seized the piers, yards and buildings of the Terminal company, a British owned econcern, control over which he re- garded as necessary in order to fa cilitate the resumption of the nor- mal business activity of the:city. The admiral had been endeavoring to rent the property, but could not come to an agreement. with the managers as to the price to be paid. The management quoted a figure which the naval -authorities consid- ered exorbitant, and Admiral Fletcher ended the controversy by taking ad- vantage of his powers under martial law and assuming possession of the property. Prior to the seizure a high official of the company had a British flag raised over the water station far out in the yards in the belief that such action might. pre- vent the Americans from taking over the property. It availed him noth- ing, however. W. Morcom, manager of the Mexican railway. and ' presi- dent of the Terminal company, called on Rear Admiral’ Craddock of the British cruiser Essex and related the circumstances to him. The admiral advised Mr. Morcom to present his claims to the British foreign office. The Terminal company is a Brit- ish concern, most of the stock of which is held by the railroads, two of which, the Interoceanic and the Mexican, are British owned. For the operation of the property the military authorities - are using railroad men who have just -arrived in Vera Cruz, and who offered their services in ‘any capacity. Six federal soldiers who wandered too closa to the American lines were captured ‘late yesterday by marines. There is not any desire among the ' Americans to attack or in any way assume the offensive against the Mex- icans, so when the marines found themselves in possession of a squad of Huerta’s soldiers they did their best to entertain them. They gos- siped with the Mexicans regarding the news beyond the lines, and after a field luncheon shook hands with them and sent them away. Gen. Funston’s Troops Eagerly Awaited Americans in Vera Cruz -early to- day were eagerly awaiting General Frederick .Funston and his troops, Who were known to be .almost within sight of land if not actually anchored beyond the outer line of Rear Ad- miral Badger's -fleet. No announcement as to when the soldiers will be sent ashore has been made at headquarters. It was °x pected, however, that , the marines would not be withdrawn until the army expeditionary force is com- plete. » It ‘is generally understood that there will be no effort to extend the _Maas Will Release American Captives “Vera Cruz; April 28.—Sleeping on the stone flagging of the jail patio, with” insufficient food, no sanitation and threatened .every night with as- sassination by drunken jailers, is the lot of the -Americans and other for- igners, including women and chil- en, confined at Cordoba. Their re- sleasc today has been promised by General Maas in reply to a request territory now held here until further orders to that-effect come from Wash- ington... This attitude, it ig supposed, is the natural result of the negotia- tions regarding mediation, little in- formation of which is reaching herc and because of the desire to continue efforts to bring Americans in Mexico City’ and elsewhere to the coast. It is probable that geveral naval officers now administering municipal affairs will not be disturbed when the army takes nold. Among these ’ I is Commander Stickney of the Prairie, captain of the port, who is now di- recting affairs inside the breakwater. /Since the Prairie is a marine trans- port with all her men ashore it is not probable that any change will be made so far as the position of captain of the port is concerned. The medical department military government began today clearing up the wreckage of Lhe Naval academy, which was riddled by shells from the ships on the second day. Despite the damage much of the contents of the building can be used. These articles will be placed at the disposal of the officlals of the charity hospital, where the poor of the city are being cared for. Flag Raising Ceremony Was Very Impressive The ceremony of the raising of the Stars and Stripes over Vera Cruz yes- terday afternoon was an impressive one, and in its raising history was re- peated. It was on the same spot that in 1847 General Winfleld Scott broke to the breeze the American colors as he landed to begin his march at the head of the American troops on to Mexico City. The ceremony was carried out in the presence of Rear Admiral Badger, commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet; Rear Admiral Fletcher and the 1,200 men from Admiral Fletcher’s ships who took the city from the Mexicans April 21. As a mark of special distinction for bravery shown in action, Chief Quartermaster Jeffs of the battleship Florida made the big American standard fast to the halyards on the staff erected over the Terminal Hotel, and Captain Fred- erick H. Delano, adjutant of the ma- rine battalion on the Prairie; Major Quick of the Utah, and Ensign Ed- ward McDonnell of the Florida, hauled away until the flag broke out in & wave of color at the top of the staff amid the, strains of “The Star Spangled Banner,” played by the of the massed bands of the Florida and | Utah, to the thunder of the saluting guns from the Minneséta in the inner harbor and the cheering of refug=es who recently escaped from Mexico City. Long before the time set for tae ceremony Americans from all parts of the city started toward the plaza. The first of the -fighting men to ar- rive were Col. Neville’s battalion of marines, marchjng in column of fours, clad in khaki. Col. Neville and the fleld officers, who were mounted, took their places in front of the battalion, while the band of the Utah fell in on the left of the line. Next came battalions of bluejackets clad in spotless white and accom- panied by their machine gun section and hospital corps. The Florida’s band led them to their place beside the marines, bandsmen forming di- rectly in front of the flagstaff. Lieut. Buchanan Had : Charge of the Parade Lieut; Commander Allen Buchanan of the Florida, who led the blue- .aacketgp'mmminz;’,eoidh-fined them in the de. ‘When the long line had been drawn .up Capt. Wm. R. Rush of the Florida, who was in chiirge of the landing of the Americans on Mexican soil, took his place in front of and facing the flagstaff with his staff officers,. Be- hind Captain Rush stood Rear Ad- miral Flétcher. His staff, all the members) of which are now officials of the ‘city under American control, took their places on the left of the centér. Finally Rear Admiral Badger, with the officers of his staff in rull dress white uniforms took their places at the right of the center. . As the signal was given by Ensign McDonnell, standing almost on the spot where, as chief signal officer on the day of landing, he had .four of his men shot down beside him, he and the other members of the gallant quartet. hauled away on the halyards, the bluejackets presented arms, the admirals stood at salute and the band broke into the stirring strains of the American ‘national anthem. Just as the big banner was caught and extended by the afternoon breeze the first flash and roar came from the saluting bridge of the Minnesota. During the full perfod of the twenty- one gun salute the battalions stood at present arms and the admirals with their right hands at their caps. About the plaza American ciVilians and British and French spectators stood bareheaded, Qnly a_few Mexican residents of Vera . Cruz .were in the throng. From among. the.half-Indian workmen about ' the raiiroad yard who witnessed the scene came a few vivag and some cheers. Emotion .on the part of the American refugees ‘was.everywhere noted and not a few of the American women who.recently had been in fear of their lives in in- land cities wept:with relief when they saw the emblem which guaranteed their safety floating above' them. Federals Trying to Reach Rio Grande Laredo, Tex., April: 28.—The con- stitutionalists’ commander of Nuevo Laredo, Mex., today reported to the American authorities here that the 'todeml troops who Friday evacuated the town were trying to reach .the Rio Grande above Laredo. United | States troops at Minera were ordered to be on the alert. Army officials said nothing had been seen of the federals at noon, Mexican federals retreating from Nuevo Laredo after dynamiting the border city left a trail of destruction behind them, according to a train 'IY)O"_ ‘!AATE FOR TO RENT—Two furnished rooms, all conveniences, for light housekeep- ing.

Admiral Had Right to Seize Property London, April 28.—The seizure yes- terday by Rear Admiral Fletcher of the property of the British owned Terminal company at Vera Cruz is ac- cepted by the ‘British foreign office as quite within the admiral’s rights and in accordance with propriety. Of- ficials here regard the admiral's ac- tion as coming within the ordinary routine of such circumstances. It was stated today that if the Terminal company presents a claim to the Brit- ish foreign office it will be forwarded to Washington in the ordinary course. Mexico City was quiet today, ac- cording to a cablegram redeived from the 'staff of a British commercial house there, which says that the em- ployes were all well and safe. Foreigners Authorized To Leave Mexico Rome, April 28.—A dispatch today | from Mexico City says: “The fact that foreigners are authorized to leave | constitutes a pledge of safety for all | foreigners. Very few Itallans, French | or ‘Spaniards have left, but many Ger- | mans and a number of British have departed.” | JOYOUS HOMECOMING ENDS WITH DEATH ‘William Houlihan, Home After Thirty Years, Dies at Sister’s Home. Traveling several thousands of | miles to reach his old home that, | after thirty vears of adventurous life | in the far west and southwest, he might spend hig declining years among his relatives and friends, only to die a few weeks after he had re- turned, is the sad story of the event- ful life of Willlam Houlihan.

M.—Slow trading and narrow movements In stocks, after a firm opening today, suggested that the market had settled down for a period of waiting. The uncertain status of the Mexican situ- ation attached unusual hazards to speculation on either side of the market and traders held back. For the first time in several days the cables showed only small variations in quotations of American stocks in London and the market missed the impulse which Hhitherto had come from that quarter. First changes while small, were mostly upwards. Gradually the market hardened until a majority of the active stocks ad- vanced a -point or more. Canadian Pacific rose two points and Mexican Petroleum 3 1-4. Close—The market today closed strong. Prices rose from one to four points on the more hopeful feeling regarding the Mexican situation, fav- orable crop news and expectations of a speedy decision in the freight rate case. Lake dealers were on a con- tracted scale, but the market contin- ued steadily upwards. Thé following' quotations are fur- nished by G. Edward Graff, stock broker, National Bank bullding. F.
