more as constituted the defensive force
within 10 minutes after he rode up to
the iefltura and took possession OF il in
the name Of the army of liberty. Soon
after the occupation Gen. SalaZar sent
scouts to all points Of the compass and
stationed guards at the customs house,
pOstoffice, international bridges and
along the main business streets, and
among them were hundreds of men who
had Just been relieved of duty as civic
guards under the Aladerista regime.
No LOOting Permitted.
Orders were issued by Gen. SalaZar,
before entering the city. that there
should be no lOOting and that all per
sons. citizens OF foreigners. should be
treated with the utmost respect. 1t was
ordered. too, that footing or the offering
Of aEfrOnt to foreigners would be given
the death penalty. There w8s no lOOUng
and foreigners particularly Americans,
were never better treated.
The saloons opened at o'clock, but
were very sparingly paTOnized. AT s
o'clock the police quietly visited all Sa-
looms and ordered them closed and they
were kept closed all dav-a Circumstance
which may have had much to do with the
perfect order which prevailed after the
army of occupation entered the city.
Herald Men In Juarez.
c.. A. Brann and myself, who spent

aid. were extended every courtesy by the
people in Juarez, but we were unable
to get a place to sleep when, after mid
night 1t became apparent that there was
no further necessity for vigilance until
morning.
We we're compelled to keep moving to
keep our blood In circulation until some
time we finally found a hot stove, but
no chance to sleep, IN the iefaturs. We
visited the commandments, the Quartet, a
number of OutpOsts during Tuesday
night. keeping The Herald informed by
telephone OF developments, and were
frequently challenged by patrols and
searched for arms. The searchers were
invariably polite and apolOgized in ad
vance for being compelled" TO take
such liberties. Sometimes the searchers
would accept an invitation to have
cigar or cigaret, but more frequently de-
clined.
While It seemed to be generally known
outside OF Juarez that Salazar's forces

THAT the so called defenders of
Juarez did not enter whole hearted
" into the spirit Of the defence
planned by the leaders OF the AIaderista
forces was demonstrated most forcibly
at public school No. 20, near the JuaTez
monument. A force of 20 men armed
with rifles and a rapid fire gun was
stationed on the roof Of the building,
well protected by the parapets, and,
while the firing was in progress in the
northwestern portion Of the city, eXhib-
tied great excitement.
The firing had hardly ceased when
the clatter of the hOofs Of the horses
OF about 80 cavalrymen could be heard
coming from the southeast, about three
blocks away.
Could Have Stopped Cavalry.
The machine gun and the rifles were
quickly trained on the approaching horse
men, and as they were coming in solid
formation they could have been annihi
lated, but not a short was fired.
The cavaArymen came up with a rush,
shouting, Viva lbertad.' and demanded
an immediate surrender of men and
arms
with. The men not only brought them
selves and their rifles down the ladder
and laid them at the feet of their con
QueroTs, but they limbered up the rapid
fire gun and brought it down and gave
1t to a mounted man; who placed 1t in
front of him on the saddle and rode away
Rt a gallOp with his command toward
the Stanton street bridge.
Another Capture
The rapid fire gun stationed on the
roof of the old church was also captured
without a struggle and Gen. Salazar now
has the nucleus of a very decent little
rapid fire battery, with plenty Of am
munitiOn therefor. thanks to the Gen
erosity of the Aaderista government
supporters.
Fraternity After Battle"
a striking feature Of the opera bOuffe
battle was the manner in which the vic
tors and vanquished fraternized after
the surrender. II Is a safe proposition
that if Gen. Salazar had 1900 men when
he came into Juarez he had as many

In the meantime the enemy started
its advance and came from the west Of
town. A scouting party from the bar
racks rushed out Of town to the west
and down toward the river but soon
returned and the Vasquistas followed
The Entry.
Then the whole crowd came up on
the north and south of the jefatura
and began shooting in the air and yell
ing: Viva la libertad-" Give liberty.
There We're many replies. On top Of
the jail the guard stationed there,
ignorant Of the cause of the shooting,
replied with a voIley. which must have
also been fired in the air for no one
was hurt.
Captains and colonies and all the
other officers rushed about from
place to place calling TO the men not
to shoot. Soon the firing ceased, but
not until the invaders were well salts
fed that there was no sortie to be
made by the people of the town
