HOW SCOTT CAPTURED
MEXICO 81 YEARS AGO

New York Sun: AT Z o'clock on the
morning Of Sept. IA. sixty-six years
ago, the American army under Gen.
Winfield Scott, after a battle which
had continued for two days and In
which hundreds. of American officers
and men had beer killed or wounded,
entered the City Of Mexico and hoisted
the flag of. the United States over the
National Palace, which had lately
been occupied by the president of the
republic, Gen Santa Anna, the same
palace which is now the official resi-
dence Of General Huerta.
VIII troops of the United States
again haveAtaken the National, Palace
and driven out the president of Mexi-
co by the time the next anniversary
Of the capture of the city of Mexico
arrives?
Before the battle Of Chapultepec
and the fall of the city of Mexico took
place the battles of Vera Cruz, Cerro
Gordo. Puebla, Buena Vista, Contre-
ras, Churubuseo and Molino del Rey
had been fought and won by the
Americans. In these encounters many
American officers took pratt who, some
years later gained worldwide reputa-
tf@n IN the war between the north n
the south. Among them We're Ulysses
S. Grant, then a lieutenant, who was
promoted for bravery on the battles
field at the attack on Chapultepec;
Lieut.. George B. Mcclellan, Capt. Jo-
seph Hooker. Major-General Worth,
whose body now lies under a monu-

The first movement In the. attack
on the city of Mexico was the assault
on the castle of Chapultepec. the TAX
ing of which, was regarded by General
Scott as necessary before the army
moved to the capture of the city it
self. Chapultepec Is q hill of great
elevation, which can be seen from a
long distance in the valley and which
was strongly fortified at its base, on
its steep slopes and on it's summit. In
addition to having a strong garrison
here was situated the military college
Of the republic, whose students fought
bravely when the Americans attacked.
General Scott and his troops arriv
ed at Chapultepec. Sept. IL, having
fought and won the battle of Moline
del Rey on Sept. s., The attack. on the
caste began early in the morning Of
Sept. II and continued all day and was
chiefly an artillery engagement. At
s o'clock on the morning Of Sept. 10,
General Scott gave the order to as
sault. 1t
Major General Pillow was killed
soon after the battle opened. The
base of the rocky activity was carried
and the ascent of the steep hill itself
followed. The advance of the Arneri-
cans was over rocks, chasms and
mines under artillery and rifle fire, So
furious was the attack Of the Ameri-
cans that the enemy were unable to
explode the mines placed in various
spots on the hillside. without risking
the blowing up Of defenders as we'll as
invaders. A redoubt half way up was
carried and the enemy driven from
shelter to shelter. Those Mexicans
who at a distance tried to set Are to
the long powder trains reaching to
the mines were shot down.
The ditch and wall of the main
works were reached and scaling lad
ders brought up and planted by the.
storlning parties. Many Of the daring
spirits who were first up the ladders
were either thrown down or shot by.
the enemy above, but others behind
them pressed on and a Judgment was
soon made.
Here it was that Lieut.. Ulysses S..
Grant showed such bravery that he
was promoted to- the rank of captain.
Lieutenant ArmiStead, who was killed
leading C~onfederates in Pickett's
charge at Gettysburg years afterward,
was the first to leap into a ditch and
plant a ladder in the assault. Here
3Lieutenants Pickett and Longstreet
were wounded. Hundreds of Ameri-
eans sWarmed over the parapets and
into the works at the top OF the hill.
Several regirnental coiors were raised.

resented by it's officials and the army
had marched out of the city during
the night. The delegation asked for
terms Of capitulation, but were sharp
ly told that the city was virtually in
General SCOTS power, and that the
American army would enter 1t on
terms imposed by himself and not
those of the delegation or others,
~whereupon the delegation returned to
the city.
Immediately thereafter General
Scott gave orders to General Worth
and General Quitman to advance and
occupy the city. Quitman's force
dashed forward and by 7 o'clock that
morning the United States colors were
hoisted over the national palace.
General Scott and his staff, escorted
by the Second Dragons. entered the
city at 9 o'clock and established head
quarters in the palace.
The night that preceded the entry of
the American forces into the city was
n Of intense anxiety to the inhabi-
