Special trains were run from the City OF
Mexico and the 5000 population of the place
was Temporarily swelled nearly twice that
number.
President Diaz. of the republic Of Mexico,
and other high officials of the government
were on the decks of the Arizonian when the
first sling of freight was lifted from the ves-
sells hold. Ambassadors from twenty coun-
tries were also there.

was loaded directly into decorated car. A
number of speeches were made by the assem-
bled dignitaries, representing many nations.
The next day the archbishop OF Mexico
