RODMAN WANAMAKER
To FLY ACROSS OCEAN
LContinued From First Pagel

Through the Aero Club of America,
Mr.. Wanamaker last night announced
that Glen H. Curtiss was building to
his order an immense hydro-aero-
plane in which an attempt would be
made this summer to cross the Allan
tic.
Would Take Fifteen Hours
When the order for the machine
was placed Mr.. Curtiss told Mr.. Wan
amaker that in his opinion a motor
could be perfected of sufficient power
and endurance for an over-the-ocean
flight. His and other aviators' expert
ences had proven, he explained to Mr..
Wanamaker, that motor can be run
for forty and fifty hours without mis-
hap. The Wanamaker flier is destined
to make the ocean flight in fifteen
hours. Concerning the machine, it.
self, Mr.. Curtiss was confident that his
plans would produce model air
craft.
Advises Another Motor
Alfred j. Moisant. who to-day ad-
mitted that he was working on an air.
ship for an ocean fight, was of the
opinion that Mr.. Wanamaker should
modify his plans as to motive power
substituting a 500 horsepower motor
for the 200 horsepower which his an
nouncement says he contemplates u.s.
ing.
Mr.. Wanamaker in commencing up
on the proposed flight declared that its
accomplishment had been a cherished
vision of his for years. His purpose
he said, was in the interest of world
peace and by this he explained that a
trip over the ocean in one fight would
awaken the world to a realization of
the tremendous importance Of aviation
in warfare.

Gernnan Sailors Aid.

Galveston, Texas, April 25.-The Tampico situation continued so seri- ous, according to a wireless message reaching here today, that two tor pedo boats were yesterday sent up the Panuco river at Tampico to get Americans. Refugees arriving here from Tampico today said they were saved from rioting Mexicans early Wednesday morning by German sailors.
 This story of the riot was told by Americans on the collier Cyclops, which anchored in quarantine this afternoon. The trouble started Tues day night after the American men-of- war at Tampico had left their posi- tion near shore and steamed some miles out to sea. This movement of the warships took place during the afternoon The refugees said they believed the warships withdrew be cause they had orders not to seize Tampico and believed their immedi- ate presence might excite the Mexf- cans. After dark bands of Mexicans began to range the streets, shouting insults at Americans who had with drawn to the shelter of the principal hotels in Tampico, the Imperial and the Southern.
 About midnight a mob estimated at about GOO began throwing stones at the Southern hotel, where there were 20 or 30 American women and a little more than 300 American men according to the refugees estimate Biu Hanson, a former United States deputy marshal in south Texas, or ganized the American men, who had few rifles and pistols, for resist ance The Americans, however, had so little ammunition that they did not dare open fire, fearing the Mexi
 cans would kill them after their am
 munition was exhausted. The mob

Mountain Guns Shipped.

Galveston, Texas, April 25.-The first mountain guns to reach Vera Cruz will be shipped from here to- morrow morning when the steamer Saltillo sails with batteries A, B and c, of the Fourth Field Artillery. The Saltillo was chartered by the government to assist in transporting the reinforced Fifth brigade to Mex ico, but was not in readiness to sail with the four regular transports which carried Brigadier General Frederick Funston and his infantry yesterday. The war departments or ders to Funston stressed the neces- sity for getting artillery to Vera Cruz quickly and therefore the Sal tillo sails without waiting for the San Marcos, another chartered steamer which will leave early next week with the remainder of the bri- gade, consisting of the Sixth cavalry and probably few mountain guns. Major George Leroy commands the battalion on the Satillo.

GERMAN SAILORS
 TAXING A HAND
MARINES FROM CRUISER DRIES DEN TOOK AMERICANS FROM
 TAMPlCo HOTELS
Where They Were Besieeed by Mex ican Rioters and Threatened With Instant Death.

Galveston, Texas, April 25.-When the refugee ship Esperanza arrived late tonight from Vera Cruz and Tampico some of it's passengers handed the quarantine boat a cable gram of thanks to be sent the en- peror of Germany for protection given Americans by the German cruiser Dresden at Tampico Tuesday after the Aemrican warships had left Tampco harbor
 They also handed over typewriter statements giving their versions of the escape from Tampico, asserting that the action of the American war ships Chester and Des Moines in de- parting left them unprotected and deserted Two small American ships, these statements said, the Wild Duck and the Wakiva, got out of the harbor by flying the German and the British flags respectively, after the Mexican gunboats at Tam pico had threatened to sink them if they moved. The Vera Cruz refugees also handed over a packet of resolu- tions, one asserting that if the American government stops now it's campaign against Mexico it will be impossible for Americans to return with safety to that country. These statements said two Red Cross at tendants were shot down by Mexi- cans at Vera Cruz while carrying a Mexican child. Another story hand ed over the Esperanza's side said Mexican transport carrying 600 sol diers entered Vera Cruz harbor when the fighting was about over and was allowed to sail away after being de- tained short time by the American fleet.
 On board the Esperanza was an American who was wounded by bull let which came through a port hole as the Esperanza left Vera Cruz. He was shot in both legs. His name was not learned. as no one was allowed on board the Esperanza tonight, the quarantine boat merely passing the ships side and receiving packets.

AMERICAN CONSUL
 IS SURROUNDED
c. l.. MONTAGUE, AT CANANEA, IS SURROUNDED IN CONSULATE
 BY ANGRY MOB.
Remained Behind After Other Ameri- ous Condition.

Nogales, Ariz, April 25.-C. l.. Montague, American consular agent at Cananea, a rich copper mining town 45 miles south of Naco Ariz., telegraphed to Consul Frederick Simpich that at o'clock this after noon a mob of rebels was congregat- ing about the consulate and speeches threatening Americans were made.
 All the Americans, said Montague, however. had reached the border safely. Montague had remained to pack up the consulate archives. His dispatch read;
 Am now in office attending to packing archives. Very large mob now congregating on all sides of the consulate. Strong speaking being made against Americans. Some ad- vocate breaking into the consulate, others to take down the American flag. | have decided not to take down the flag until 5:30, the usual time, so as not to create excitement. Do not know what the result will be-"
 Consul Simpich immediately wired vigorous note to the rebel authori' can interests must be protected and deprecating any show of violence against the American consular agent.
 Except for the acts of what was said to be irresponsible Mexicans, the exodus of Americans continued quietly today. Louis Hostetter American consul at Hermosillo, has wired he would reach the border on Monday Americans as far south of Hermosillo as Culiacan are to be brought north on a special train un- der protection of General Alfaro Ob regon, rebel commander. Fears for safety for foreigners are centered only in possible acts of the more lawless elements who have become outspoken in anti-American senti-
 raid of armed Mexicans on the United States side at the border oc- cured 20 miles east of Nogales when gonia, Ariz., to rob mining camps on their way to the border. Americans from Nogales and surrounding towns quickly armed themselves and started in pursuit.
 A long distance telephone message from Duquesne said the Americans in that mining camp and at Patagonia had armed themselves and were pre- pared to fire on the Mexicans. Only eight armed MeXicans started from Patagonia but they were said to have gathered recruits and were headed for the border at Lochiel. The sheriff at Duquesne called for help and at o'clock this afternoon two automobiles loaded with armed American civilians and a lieutenant of the United States army started from Nogales, over the 20 miles of mountain road to the border in the hope of capturing them.
 The orders of the Americans are to shoot if the Mexicans show fight Americans in the copper mining region west of here have been terror ized by the rising of the MeXicans.
 Gained down by conservative speakers, the mob around the Ameri- can consulate finally dispersed.
 Consul Montague then put all his papers in an automobile and started for the border, which he expected to reach about midnight.
