Estimate Of Casualties.
This is an incident known to many
American residents who have arrived
here. No less frightful experiences.
they say, have been those of many
Mexicans. especially among the poorer
classes.
One estimate OF the casualties in the
fighting from Sunday to Sunday, given
as conservative. is as follows:
DiaZ forces. 80 killed in the arsenal
and 60 wounded: 200 killed outside the
arsenal and 200 wounded
Federals-Fifteen hundred killed and
1000 wounded.
Non-combatants Twelve hundred
killed and 1000 wounded.
The fighting OF Monday was unusually
severe. The streets of the capital were
practically deserted, as the Inhabitants,
their last vestige Of hope dispelled by
the breaking of the armistice on the day
previous, departed to the outer suburbs
or took refuge in their cellars. All who
dared to venture out left for Vera Cruz.
There were many who remained in the
city because they were unwilling to leave
until they had learned the fate OF rela-
tivcs or friends or until they give burial
TO the victims among their families.

Late on Monday afternoon the Federal
commander planned to place at the
corner OF the city two big
guns which had been intended for the
of Salina Cruz. the Pacific
terminus of the Tehuanteprc Railroad.
In spite of the fire from these huge
pieces, Diaz and his followers appeared
to have suffered only slightly. Shot for

desultory and both sides directed their
efforts to preparing for a resumption OF
the heavy fighting on Tuesday.
Rifle balls slipped far out of the actual
zone of fighting into all quarters OF the

ing the day in the kitchen of the United

AMERICAN REFUGEES
NOW AT VERA CRUZ

More than 90 American refugees are
now at Vera Cruz, according to n mes
sage received from United States Consul
Canada, at that port. yesterday. The
consul said that many of the Americans
and hundreds of other foreigners who
have fled from Mexico City. are destitute.
BY subscription the consul has obtained
enough money to feed the destitute
Americans for two days.
Many more refugees are coming into
the city. the consul states and he urges
that funds be sent to the relief COM
mittee which he has organized at Vera
Cruz for the aid of the Americans and
other foreigners. The refugees reported
that the termination of the arnistice on
Sunday prevented many Americans from
escaping from the Mexican capital on
trains to Vera Cruz.

COLD IS GREAT APPETIZER
Exceedingly Low Temperature Causes
Violent Hunger in Both Man
and Beast.

AS everybody knows, there have
been devised various methods where
by exceedingly low temperatures have
been obtained.
While the arctic regions provide
some fairly cold weather-say, sixty
or seventy-five degrees below zero,
Fahrenheit-th scientists have been
able to surpass natures achievements
IN this line, and when they wish one
hundred and fifty or two hundred and
fifty degrees below zero they can OBJ
tain it. How this is done it is unne-
cessary here to state. 1t is interest
ing to note the effects of such low
temperatures on animal life.
Dogs, when introduced to such an
environment, withstand it well, pro-
vided they are covered in blankets and
wool and provided the experiment is
Of short duration. But a curious fact
is that when they emerge from such
temperature they are fearfully hun
cry.
Having seen that dogs stood the ex-
periments well, one experimenter
tried the effects of intense cold upon
himself and went down into his "cold
pit" carefully dressed in warm cloth
ing and furs. The temperature was
maintained steadily at one hundred
and ten below zero, Centigrade-o
hundred and sixty-six, Fahrenheit.
After four minutes the experiment
ter felt very hungry and was more so
when he put an end to the expert
ment, coming out of the cold after
eight minutes. He took a hearty
meal and enjoyed it thoroughly; and
this seemed all the more strange,
since for years he had not known
what it meant to be hungry. Appe-
tite had been word without meaning
to him, and the digestion of each meal
was commonly such a painful process
that he ate very little and never en-
joyed it.
He repeated the %cold experiment"
daily for week, and, after eight cold
baths of eight or ten minutes each, his
pain and distress after eating vanish
ed. Appetite was restored and diges-
ton became painless. = Harper's
Weekly.
