The action also is looked ' | upan as an cconomy measure, since | maintenance of the yacht in com-! | mission has been costing the govern- ;m(nl $300,000 a year. | In laying aside the Mayflower, Hoover has indicated the discol- tinuance of a form of presidential | recreation which has been in favor ! i for many years. The Mayflower came {into mervice as the outing craft of presidents during the ad- ministration of President Wilson, and before that time had been used jon several occasions by Presidents | Roosevelt and Tart. 181 Navy Men Released President Hoover feels that in {view of the needs of the navy for expansion and to further govern- | ! mental economy, maintenance of the ship is no longer warranted. | New ships that are coming into the | navy create a constant demand for' more men and decommissioning of the yacht will leave nine officers, 21 petty officers, 120 enlisted men and | 21 marines free for new assign-| )| ments, | | Added to these reasons is the fact that, although Mr. Hoover has been reported. but upparently little biood | had wbeen shea | A force of 6,000 federal rein-| forcenients was rushing to the relief | o1 the city, but was not expected berore Sunday at the earliest Two clashes took place yesterday but in both cases the insurgents were driven off and General Carril-| _— | lo, Mazatlan's defender, assured the| . . govmment ne wouia be avie 10| (GFaA0AtION Exercises to Be Held | hold o 2 Wireless advices from the steamer ww M E g Margaret Johnson said the rebels NCXt n ly 'emn re thr ine city and everything was quiet.
