NATIONAL TRIBUTE
TO DEAD MARINES
PRESIDENT LAUDS HEROISM OF
THE FIRST WAR VICTIMS AT
VERA CRUZ.
THOUSANDS LINE STREETS
President and Many Dignitcries Were
In Long Procession in New York.
Wilson's Speech.

New York.-To the men Of the navy
who died in the occupation Of Vera
Cruz the city, the state and the ma
ton paid tribute in demonstration
chiefly remarkable for it's silence and
solemnity. For four miles through
the city streets the funeral cortege
passed and. behind with barred head
rode the president.
Perhaps million persons saw the
seventeen collins, each on caisson,
borne from the Battery plaza in Low
er Manhattan to the navy yard in
Brooklyn. Such was the feeling of the
massed thousands that the silence at
times was oppressive. There were
few sporadic outbursts of applause as
the presidents carriage passed, but
these were quickly hushed.
Though there were but seventeen
of the dead in the procession, Secre-
tary of the Navy Daniels made it plain
that the ceremonies were for all who
had died at Vera Cruz-not only the
seventeen whose bodies were brought
up by the cruiser Montana but also
for Clarence Harshberger and Henry
Pulliam, who have since died.
The religious ceremony at the navy
yard was more impressive, if possible
than was the sight of the slow NOV
ing cortege, 81 never was in a bat
tie or under fire." said President Will
son in his brief address, "but 1 fancy
it is just as hard to do your duty
when men are sneering at you, as
when they shoot at you"
I'VE have gone to Mexico" he said,
in another part of his address, ''to
serve mankind If we can find the way. !
We don't want to fight the Mexicans;
we want to serve them
"a war of aggression is not a thing
in which it is proud to die, but a war
IT service is war in which it is a |
proud thing to die"
