ARE IN DANGER
Declare Government Failed to
Furnish Adequate Protcc-
ton at Tampico.

GALVESTON, Tex, May s.-"There
are fully 800 American women. chill
dren and men in the territory
tributary to Tampico whom II was
impossible To reach In time and con-
sequcntlv we're unable To avail them
selves of n safe refuge. We fear
greatly that If they have not already
been murdered, their lives are In the
gravest danger"
Such was the message forwarded
from several hundred American
refugees on board the Connecticut,
off Galveston, to senator stone.
chairman or the senate Foreign Re
iations Committee, in Washington.
I'm all from the Tampico district
the petition stated, there are over
$500 American men, women and
leave their homes and business for
the lack Of adequate protection froom
our Government. Had one American
gunhoat been allowed to remain in
would not have been any active de-
monstration or attempt 10 destroy
American property notwi' hstandlng
the bitter feelings towards Amcri-
cans.
I'VE feel that conditions making
our exodus compulsory wer" brought
about solely by the fact that our
Government failed to give us adc-
auate protection at the critical mo-
ment The properties which We have
been compelled to abandon will be
entirely lost unless our Government
sees fit to protect those properties
that we may return to look after them
ourselves. The great number of refu-
gees will be left homeless and desti-

OF the Tampico district IL undoubted-
ly true of all other portions of Mexico
THE failure OF our Government "a
take a definite stand AT this critical
moment will make II impossible for
us to ever hope to return with safety
When tho gunboats of Admiral
Mayo's command were ordered out
of Tampico, no intimation was given
to Americans of any danger what
soever.

made in the shape of street parades

To insure success the Feds must

Their campaign for the pennant will

the Pittsburgh announcement was
that the American League would not
