NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 26, 1914. MEXICAN FEDERAL SOLDIERS REVOLT C?osinu of Yera Cruz Port Works Great Hardship. Vera Cruz, Mex.,, Aug. 26.—Gen- eral Carranza’'s decree closing the p8rt of Vera Cruz has worked great hardship here. While General Huer- ta issued a similar decree it was never enforced. A general revolt among Federal saldiers seems to have proken out in various parts of the vountry. Word has reached here that 8,000 of them, under General Ortega, reyolted at Saflina Cruz on the west coast and news of revolts in other places is con- stantly arriving. General Outvreak Feared. Nothing is known here about Gen- eral Villa’s movements and consider- able apprehension is felt that 4 new and general outbreak is in the mak- ing. ‘The Federal troops already mus-. tgred out are thronging into Vera Cruz. They have been falsely in- structed. by their officers, also mus- tered out, that the United States army will care for them. All of them have been decreed worthless. As a result many of them are penniless and not a few are on the verge of starvation. Gen. Funston will have to face this situation. As yet he has announced no, plans. It is generally recognized however, that the problem is a serious one and may cause trouble. Carranza is Biamed. London, Aug. 26.—Despatches re- ceived here from Mexico regard the existence ot the new government as already compromised General Car- ran?a’s intransigence both from in- ternal and exterior points of view. The despatches hold Gens. Carran- Zaa and Villareal especially responsible for the present situation. Recognition Withheld. ‘Washington, Aug. 26.— Once more the policy of watchful waiting will be rgsumed by the Administration with regard to Mexican affairs. There will not be any official recognition of the Carranza temporary government until the administration through its con- sular and diplomatic agents is con- vinced that Mexico 1s neing governed according to its constitution. It is hoped that within a few weeks a constitutional election can be held. ecognition will follow quickly upon the announcement that a legal elec- tion has been held. BRITISH OUTRAGED TURKISH SENTIMENT Seizure of Two Dreadnaughts of Ot- toman Empire in English Ship Yards Was Unnecessary. ‘Washington, Aug. 26.—A. Rustem Bey, Turkish ambassador, said today he was without information as to the stAnd his government will take in the European crisis, because of inter- rupted communication. “Turkish sentiment has been out- raged,” said the ambassador, “by the taking over by the British govern- ment of the two dreadnoughts just completed in English ship yards for the Turkish government. “This ac- tion on the part of the British gov- rnment was entirely unnecessary.” Secretary Bryan said reports had been received from time to time in- dicating that Americans might be in danger in Turkey. At the navy de- partment it was said that as yet no requests had been received to send American warships into Turkish waters. PECK FOR CHAIRMAN.

London, Aug. 26, 7:15 a. m.—The i bomb dropping exploit of the Zeppe- lin airship at Antwerp, promises to become a matter of the widest inter- national consideration. The Belgian authorities claim that the attack was a clear violation of article 26 of the fourth Hague convention. A despatch which is regarded as semi-official states that 900 houses were slightly damaged and sixty hcuses nearly destroyed. The Chron- icle says: “For the first time in history a great civilized community has been bombarded from the sky in the dead | of night. Count Zeppelin, whom the German Emperor calls the greatest genius of the century, has performed the greatest exploit of his life, He has thrown bombs on hospitals where Belgians were attending German wounded. He has staggered human- ity. On August 5 the German com- mander warned General Leman at Liege that if the forts did not sur- render the Zeppelin fleet would move | against Belgium. | “The Germans have been as good as thir word. We have explored every one of ten devastated streets and have found portions of ten bombs. | The number of victims is unknown. | It is significant that all the bombs were aimed at public buildings such as | the military barracks, the government | The | offices and the royal palace. population is in gloom.” REPUBLICANS SHUN WOMAN SUFFRAGE Smalley .

The emperor was wearing several British orders and medals on his breast and these he tore off, saying: ‘Tell your king that that is what I think of him and his medals,” where- upon the emperor marched out of the room.” Refugees arriving from Ostend by way of Folkestone told of a corpulent Frenchman, who as soon as the boat left the wharf at Ostend, took off his coat, vest and boots and putting on a life preserver sat down on the edge of the deck, continuing the whole trip in this costume.

London, Aug. 26 (5:12 A, M.)—Re- turning from the front a correspon- dent of the Times sends the following under a Paris date: At Mons the British troops have made themselves at home. Prepara- tions for the city's defense were ex- tremely comforting in their workman- like detail. In the woods lurked. in- numerable field guns, Everywhere in the town confidence was dominant, “When with heavy firing audible in the distance, British soldiers can sit quietly on the banks of the canal, calmly fishing with bayoneted rifles as fishing rods, the spectacle in- spires confidence even though from l'all directions the presence of the dreaded German cavalry is reported.” Populace Greatly Alarmed. The next day the correspondent proceeded to Tournai, where he found the populace in great alarm. Six Ger- man cavalrymen motored into the ! town and inquired whether there were | any French soldiers there. They were ! told that there were none, but later |in the day French troops entered | the place and killed the six Ger- | | mans. The next morning a large | force of Germans attacked the town and was repulsed. | Proceeding to Valciennies, the cor- ! respondent found that troop trains filled with British soldiers were con- tinually arriving there. The British officers were in absolute possession of the refreshment bars and no food was | obtainable. French Troops' Bravery. | The correspondent continues | “Near Charleroi 1 heard some stories | of the bravery of the French sol- | diers. The Germans were bombarding ithe city. The French troops made { what amounted to a medieval sortie, but finding the enemy in much »greater force than was expected, were compelled to withdraw. The bombard- ment continued relentlessly, where- upon the French Turcos, picked troops from Algeria, debouched from the town and with a gallantry which must surely live in history charged the German battery, bayonetting all the German gunners. Their losses, it is said, exceeded those of the Light Brigade at Balaklava. Of a battalion only 100 men, it is reported, returned unscathed. Their bravery, however, was powerless against the German ad- vance, which crept foot by foot through the outskirts of Charleroi to the very heart of the town. “There in the narrow streets the carnage was indescribable. French infantrymen told me that the roads became so jammed with dead that the killed remained standing upright where they had been shot, supported by their dead comrades. The last stand of the French was made before the railway station in front of which passes the canal. Here the Germans fought for two hours to take the bridge. After they had captured the station with heavy casualties the Germans moved rapidly ahead, toking varfous suburban villages.” DROVE TRUOK RECKLESSLY.
