NEW YORK, July 1l.-Orders prac-
tically equivalent to those issued for
strike or riot duty today held 5000
policemen in reserve in every station
house in greater New York TO be
ready to put down by force the threat
ened demonstration OF anarchists in
Union-sq.
Mayor Mitchell and Police Commits
sioner Woods have ordered that the

West One Hundred and Nineteenth-st.,
carried to Union-sq., where Alexander
Berkman leader of the conservative

CLAIMED PRISONERS WE'RE
RUTHLESSLY SLAIN
Unarmed Men Killed Under Mex
lean Law of Flight" Says
Reporter

VERA CRUZ, July 11.-Congres-
sional investigation to determine
whether American marines shot down
and killed unarmed. fleeing Mexicans,
under the old Mexican 'law of fighty
during the occupation OF Vera Cruz ap-
peared likely today.
a great sensation followed quickly
upon the opening yesterday of hear
ing upon the appeal OF Fred l.. Boalt.
correspondent OF the Newspaper En-
terprise association, from an order OF
deportation based upon a story regard.
Ing the application by marines of the
ley de fuga."
Boalt asserted that he had obtained
tho story directly from officers OF the
battleship Arkansas. Several other
correspondents have been summoned
TO appear before a board OF inquiry sit
ting on board the battleship Texas.
Boalt today said that Ensign VIII
liam A. Richardson, OF the battleship
Arkansas, and other officers had told
him that he and his men had fired on
unarmed and fleeing Mexicans during
the occupation OF the city, after telling
the Mexicans to run.
rs q result OF the statements made
by Boalt, the hearing on the Texas a
technically described as "The navy
versus Richardson" While It was orig.
lLaliy designed To pass upon the order
OF deportation against Boalt, Ii appar.
entity has developed into an inquiry
INTO the actions of Ensign Richardson.
VIII demand congressional in
vestgation or the whole occupation OF
Vera Cruz, before / will surrender nv
credentials" said Boalt today.
Among the correspondents siIbpoez
naed to testify are William G.. Shep-
herd, OF the United Press; Kirke
Simpson, OF The Associated Press;
Robert II. Murray. of the New York
World, and others.
The turn the matter took today
aroused the most intense interest
here.
Officials of the army and navy real.
lied that the point at issue had de-
veloped from the question OF deport-
ing Boalt to the question OF whether
American marines killed helpless
Mexicans after ordering them to run.
The ley de fuga" is one OF the Oldest
and most notorious customs OF the
ed throughout the civilized world. Ii
has been used repeatedly in Mexico
as means OF removing undesirable
prisoners The general method prac-
ticed by Mexicans is TO give a pris-
oner certain space in which he is
permitted to move about. He is shot
while so doing, and the official report
states that he was shot while attempt
ing flight Very frequently the pris-
oner is simply told to run for his life,
and is shot down as he runs.
The story that American marines
applied the ley de fugaT 10 Mexi-
cans during the occupation here has
been repeated many times in Vera
Cruz, but through the developments
OF the inquiry. the first definite state
ment as 10 responsibility was made.
Boalts direct charge that he obtained
the story directly from Ensign Rich
ardson, who is alleged TO have partic-
ipated in the incident, put an entirely
new light on the whole situation.
