Elrlnn Ceases at ramplco

Washington, May 13.-Reports
reached the navy department today
that the artillery duel between reb-
els and federals at Tampieo had ceas-
ed late yesterday and that the re-
suit Of the engagement was not
known.
This was Tepe1ed IN dispatch
from Admiral Badger transmitting ad-
vices received by him from Admiral
Mayo lying off Tampico, as late at 3
o'clock this morning. The admiral
says the heavy firing around Tampico
stopped about O'Clock Tuesday af-
ternoon.
Apparently reliable information
from the zone of the fighting is that
the rebels at one time advanced
their lines and temporarily occupied
some of the federal trenches. Ad-
miral Mayo says it was reported the
casualties on both sides have been
very heavy.

WHAT BECAME OF THE
MISSING SOLDIER?
c,
FUNSTON IS ORDERED TO MAKE
INVESTIGATION INTO PARKS
DISAPPEARANCE

Washington, May 49, Secretary of
War Garrison has directed General
Funston at Vera Cruz to ask General
Mas, the Mexican federal comman-
der. what has become of Samuel
Parks, the United States private, who,
while supposedly insane, rode through
the Mexican line and has not been
seen or heard from since, A like ins
quiry has been transmitted by Sec
retary Bryan to General Huerta
through the Brazilian minister in
Mexico City. 1t has been reported
that Parks met death m the Mexican
lines.
Mr. Garrison said today he had no
official information concerning Parks
fate He said General Funston had
reported unconfirmed stories repeat
ed to him concerning the executios of
the American private.
Mr.. Garrison said his future course
will depend entirely on the nature of
the replies to inquiries now being
made jointly by the state and war
departments.
There is nothing to be gained by
getting excited before we know what
the facts are" the secretary added.
General Funston's official report in
the Parks case so far has been confin-
ed to the assertion that the American
soldier, with two horses, disappeared
through the Mexican lines and has not
since been heard from.

daily skirmishes, but the rebels still
are awaiting the final order for a
general attack on The federal en-
trenchments.
On May 10 and IL General Con
zales, with his brigadier generals, Luis
Caballero and Cesario Castro, took up
their positions before Tampico and
by q. series of reconnoissances and
skirpishes located the positions of
the federals.
General Gonzales then sent a note
to the federal commander, General
Morelos Zaragoza, inviting him to
leave his position within the city and
engage on the plain outside in order
to avoid needless bloodshed among
citizens of the town and non-compat-
ants. This note was communicated %
the foreign consuls in Tampico who
were asked to see that their fellow
took refuge on vessels in
the harbor.
General Zaragoza evidently refused
to leave his position. The federal
gunboat Zaragoza is shelling the Ma
dero flour mill, which is situated on
the bank OF Panuco river and which
is occupied by constitutionalist troops,
but the federal infantry remained in
their trenches.
Another telegram which was receiv-
ed by way of Ciudad Victoria stated
that the families Of foreigners living
in Tampico had taken refuge on war
ships and merchant vessels in the
harbor and that many of the Mexican
residents of the city had taken refuge
behind the constitutionalist lines.
General Gonzales has seized all the
Mexican yachts and launches on the
Panuco river and will use them 10
transport his troops when necessary.
There are 5000 unemployed men in
Tampico. Some of these men have
been obliged to take up arms In t9e
federal ranks, according to the mes
sage while many have made their
way to the constitutionalis lines and
enlisted under General Gonzales.

present at least The federal garri-
son has repulsed the attacking party

under which shipping has been car
ried ON along the Pacific coast, and
enable American coasting vessels to
enter ports freely and get their clear
ance papers as formerly. Since the
Huerta order went into effect the
commander OF the Pacific fleet has
been providing American liners with
notes to the collector of the port at

The crew of the abandoned federal
gunboat Morelos, which was blown up

Vera Cruz Amerlcanized

Vera Cruz, May I0s--(By mail via
New Orleans, May 1S.)-The Ameri-
canization of Vera Cruz goes steadily
forward and everywhere there are
evidences of the manifold abilities OF
the army and navy as advance guards
of civilization. When the American
blueiackets first landed here Admiral
Fletcher was confronted with finding
means of transportation and commun-
ication between his outposts. On the
customs wharfs there were three
large motor trucks, recently purchas-
ed in France for Huerta's army. These
were commandered and soon were be-
ing driven about the streets, placing
troops and stores.
Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the Ame~i-
can charge at Mexico City, had OBJ
tanned an automobile, shipped to Mex
leo City, and this, too, was pressed
into service When General Funston
established headquarters he found the
local telephone system worse than
useless. He had the signal corps
string wires about town connsctins
outposts and the important points II
the city.
The light and power station had
been put out of commission by he
retreating federais and the trolley
lime stepped. While the electrical en-
gineefs of the fleet were trying to
put tae dynamos and generators into
working condition the blueiaekete
pressed into service many little burrc
carts.
