The outpost Of greatest interest IS
the one on the extreme right. at the
pumping station that supplies water 10

est interest, because 1t is of this post
that the enemy most frequently ap-

expected that I have accused Captains

the same man, but Federal sentry,
who at regular intervals they see re-
lieved. but I am sure II is the same

can be only one hat like that.
At this post the men live in freight

cause it is opposite the point where

Tejar Guards Proud OF Post.
II you speak Of Tejar to the marines
who guard it as one of our outposts
you will be at once corrected. They
will tell you coldly: "Tejar is an in
dependent post. We are eleven klo-
metres, or eight miles, outside the
American lines"
You can see why that makes them
proud. In case OF trouble, for some
time at least they must depend upon
themselves.
They enjoy their isolation and re-
sponsibility. They like being cut off
from every one who speaks their Ian

Arms from Japan for Huerta.

Another large shipment Of arms for
Huerta is expected soon to arrive at
Salina Cruz, on the west coast, from
Japan. The United States naval forces
on the west coast. as well as the CON
suls stationed there. are on the lookout
for this shipment, which was reported
due ''the latter part Of May" No ac-
ton will be taken to prevent the land
ing of it. Instructions have gone TO
Admiral Howard, commanding the
American force on the west coast, that
his ships should not interfere.
There was much comment in naval
circles this afternoon over the fact that
Huerta has obtained the shipment
which caused the battle Of Vera Cruz
and the loss of nearly a score Of Amer
lean lives.
The report Of the landing Of arms by
the Bavaria came TO the War Depart
ment two days ago from General Fun
ston, at Vera Cruz.
The reported delivery Of these car
goes aroused considerable speculation

the Hamburg American ship Kron-

Vera Cruz, May 27.-The fact that
the mediators are frequently moving 10
adjourn. in order that they may be
photographed with Niagara Falls for
a background. or go to luncheon with
the DUKE of Connaught, does not cause
the army and navy down here to relax.
This is true of everybody. but espe-
cially OF the men on the outposts. be-
cause II anything unexpected and out
rageous Is TO happen 1t is along our
lines that 1t is most likely to break
loose.
The demand for the surrender OF
Tejar the murder of Parks. the firing
on the airship-all were affairs OF out
posts. so that while the mediators move
the previous question and adjourn FOR
luncheon the man on outpost duty
never adjourns and never sleeps. AS
he understands It, "watchful waiting
is sitting on the limb Of a tree with his
rife across his knees and a telescope
pressed to his right eye.
The outposts run from north to south
in a semicircle six miles long. Some OF
the posts are guards of two men and
others include full companies. Even
were the enemy told where on these
hills are our trenches ii would not help
him, as most Of them are so cleverly
concealed ne could locate them only by
stumbling into them. Each Is emf
laded by others, and all, by telegraph,
by hello or by wigwags, are in touch.
Nor can nightfall cut off communica-
tion, for the telegraph and field tele-
phone know no rest, and the electric
searchlights with automatic cutoffs can
flash out the S o S call or the assur-
ance that all is well.
Hard Lot Of Some Outpost Men.
The men on outpost duty who get the
worst of it are those in the centre of
the sand lots. Their lots are not
happy. No one would select the sand
hills for a picnic. They are without
water, without fuel for making coffee.
without shade. The heavy sand, in
which one sinks 10 ones boot tops, is
alive with sand neas, jiggers and liz
ards. About the only growing thing is
the thornbush, with thorns long and
yellow like the teeth of a Russian
woifhound. And their bite is as I'M
pleasant.
On those posts vigilance never re-
lakes. The outguards know nothing of
mediation. Their orders are under no
circumstances TO commit any act that
might bring on conflict with scouting
parties Of Federals. but their orders
also are to note and report all move
ments Of armed bodies in front of their
lines.
At the present time il would not be
proper to state in what directions their
vigilance extends. To do so. while il
might warn marauding bands TO keep
outside the fire lines. might defeat the
very purpose for which they are so
splendidly prepared. But any Federal
who thinks that unobserved he can
creep up on our men is moving under
a misrepresentation. He also is moving
under the observation OF several field
glasses and gun sights-not with the
idea Of shooting him, but merely to
establish the range.

Tribune's News Confirmed.

Confirmation was also obtained to-
day of the report published exclusively
in The Tribune yesterday that tn"
Hamburg American liner Bavaria had
landed million rounds Of ammunition
and possibly some arms at Puerto
Mexico on Saturday.
There is apparently nothing for the
United States to do about it. Puerto
Mexico is an open port, free TO all the
world and the only way to prevent the
landing of arms is to do what The
United States did at Vera Cruz-land
force and seize the custom house. TO
which all articles landed from any ship
must be delivered.
The German government has nothing
10 do with the matter, and could
scarcely force its nationals who sell
arms not to ship them to Mexico, al
though it is true that they might exer-
else sufficient influence 10 put a stop
to such transactions. Huerta is not
guilty Of any violation OF the agree
ment between the United States and
Mexico that there shall be no aggres-
sive action on either side pending the
mediation at Niagara Falls. lie has es
much right to import arms and other
munitions of war as has the United
States to send supplies to the Ameri-
can forces at Vera Cruz.

up Huerta at that point, but evidently
she was proceeding for the purpose Of
discharging the arms which had so
long lain in her hold.
