Vera Cruz, April 2S.-Gen. Funston
came ashore today and Immediately
had a long conference with Admiral
troops of the Fifth brigade should
gradually replace the marines and
bluejackets, the infantrymen taking
positions along the outer lines as fast
as they come ashore. A large crowd
gathered to witness the disembarka-
ton and joked with the crowd of Am
orleans that had gathered to witness
the Decentralization.
SO slow was their progress that the
battleship Louisiana kept her cables
on deck ready to tow the transports
in Gen. Funston on the Fitzpatrick
became extremely impatient and at
his request the Fitzpatrick forged
miles ahead of the others.
Funston Receives Secret Orders.
News of the mediation by Argen-
tina, Brazil and Chile has been re-
ceived here and caused great uncer-
tainty. Gen. Funston, upon landing
today, received orders from Washing
ton, the nature of which he declined
to divulge He says his present force
is not large enough to enable him to
do more than occupy Vera Cruz. He
does not know whether more troops
are coming but infers that there will
be no advance to Mexico City at pres
ent.
Before taking control of the situa-
ton the general wrote several dis
patches to Washington and one-not
the least interesting to him-to his
home This later dispatch was in re-
ply to one which he received yester-
day informing him of the birth of a
daughter.
The American flag was raised over
the famous old Mexican fort of San
Juan de Ulloa today. Tonight the
army takes over the entire admins
tration of the town.
Report Six Americans Slain.
News has reached here that forty
eight Americans have been arrested
by the federals at Cordoba, making a
total of eighty-four who are now in
prison there. A report says that six
of the Americans imprisoned there
have been taken out and killed. Ad-
miral Fletcher and Consul Canada have
taken steps to have this report veri-
fed
D. F. Anderson of Texas, manager
of the Mexican Land and Cattle COM
pany, is reported to have been killed
at Cosmolopam, about sixty miles
south. of Vera Cruz, by mob that
went to the Hotel Cosmolopam last
Saturday night to beat him to death

tinguished consideration.
With the acceptance of the principle
of mediation by President Wilson,
President Huerta and General Car
rama, leader of the constitutionalists,
the preliminary work of the board of
mediation is at end. The next step
will be to bring about complete ces-
sation of hostilities pending the diplo-

The United States will agree to a
cessation of hostilities with the I'M
derstanding expressed in the last par

Saturday, in which he said
"This government feels bound in

lations with Mexico, being for the
present severed, it is not possible for
it to make sure of an uninterrupted
opportunity to carry out the plan of
mediation which you propose.

With these replies before them,
the ENJOYS were prepared to go ahead
with their peace plans SO far as the
United States and the Huerta gov

posed armistice between the consti-

Jewel Studded Collars Set
with BirthStOneS Prove
Popular Fad.

Never before since the Paquins, Red
ferns and Worths of dogdom began to
vie with one another in perfecting the
artistic doggy apparel have the canine
fashions been so alluring as now.
Unfortunately. the canine celebrities for
which these styles are designed do not
take the keen delight which Is evinced
by their owners in a shopping tour,
which includes innumerable fittings and
a trying on OF the various articles In
tended TO beautify the pampered pets.
When one considers that absolute COM
fort is the keynote of dog fashions one
realizes just how much mans best friend
/ has to be thankful for. Certainly so
much cannot be said of things sartoral
which are designed for the fair owners
Of the CANNES.
! The most successful dog outhtter in
/ America dates his success as far back
as 1879, when he received diploma from
| the American Institute for his clever
designs and workmanship
There are jewel studded collars. many
.of them set with the dogs birthstone;
sterling silver collars for the "Poms'
/ and "Pekos," plain black patent leather
for the conservative dog which halls
from the Quaker City and pedigree col
lars for the blue blooded CANNES which
are DESTROYS of carrying their family
trees on their necks.
II is doubtful If the selection Of his col
lar is of great Importance to Fido so long
. as the old style is not chosen. for that
is designed TO bring the wide studded
part under his chin and make master
Fido feel as uncomfortable as boy in
his first standing collar.
At ono time the collar was about the
only adornment which a self-respecting
dog could wear. Now the wardrobe OF
every dog Of note contains coats. fur
lined and those designed for the prone
made. Scotch plaids for an ocean voyage
