Foreigners Not in Danger


Washington January 2.-Colonel More
ton F. Gage, military attache at the Brit
ish embassy here, who returned TO-DAY
from a three weeks visit in Mexico City,
saw nothing to indicate danger to Tor
eigners there. and so far as his personal
observations went had difficulty in realiZ-
ing that a revolution was in progress
in the country. The colonel said he noted
signs Of ordered government about tne
Mexican capital, and along the railway
to Vera Cruz, and was greatly impressed
with the rurales, the Mexican volun-
teer organization, on whom the duty of
maintaining order must fall If the reeu-
lar troops of the city garrison are with
drawn for service in the field. Members
of the foreign colonies told him that they
did not anticipate grave disorder In the
city itself.
Il do not believe said Colonel Gage,
s.tllere Is any danger to foreigners in
the city except possibly in the event of
the government being suddenly deprived
of its head. In that case, civil riot might
conceivably arise and the Zapatstas, who
are said to be bitterly hostile to the
wealthy classes, might seek to destroy
and loot their homes and would probably
make no distinction between these and
those of foreigners.
Contemplate Offensive
Colonel Gage was told that the COM
mander of the rurales contemplated tax
ing the offensive with this force soon
against numerous robber bands near thu
city.
TO the wide publicity given by Ameri-
can newspapers to what are regarded in
Mexico City as exaggerated reports OF
rebel victories along the northern border,
Colonel Gage attributed what he termed
1.-THE false and unfortunate impression
prevailing among Mexicans that the
American public favored the cause of the
rebels He called attention to state
ment published in the United States re-
Gently, that American Charge O'Shaugh-
messy had been forced to take round
about course to obtain an interview with
General Huerta. Colonel Gage said it
was we'll known in the Mexican capital
that relations between the head of the
government and the American off1ci'I
were cordial. Colonel Gage would not

died In ls43, was a native of Mary
land. During the war Of 1872 he
went under a flag OF truce to the
British feet in Chesapeake bay to
ask the release Of a friend. The
admiral detained him with the feet
for two days to prevent his carry
ing ashore Information. The Brit
ish admiral had declared hat he
would o compel the Americans TO
haul down the flag of Fort McHen-
ry. During the night Key watched
the flag anxiously until the bonn
bardment ceased. some time before
daylight. When he saw that our
flag was ''still there his Joy found
vent In some hastily scrubbed notes
on the back OF an old letter. He
put them into verse while returning
to Baltimore.
an, say, can you see, by the
~ dawn's early light,
WHAT so proudly we hailed
at the twilight's last gleam-
ing?
Whose broad stripes and bright
stars through the perilous
fight
Ger the ramparts we watched
were so CALAMITY streaming;
And the rockets red glare, the
bombs bursting In air,
Gave proof through the night
hat our flag was still there.
oh, say, does that star spangled
banner yet wav
Der the land of the free and the
home of the brave?
On that shore dimly seen through
the mists of the deep,
Where the foes naughty host
in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze
DER the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, now con-
ceals, now discloses?
Now IL catches the CLEAN of the
mornings first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines
in the stream
IT'S the star spangled banner
oh. long may Ii wave
Ger the land of the free and the
home of the brave!
And where is that band who so
vauntingly swore
Mid the havoc of war and the
battles confusion
A home and a country they'd
leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out
their foul footsteps pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling
and slave
From the terror OF flight or the
gloom of the grave,
And the star spangled banner In
triumph doth wave
Ger the land OF the free and the
home of the brave!
Oh, thus be 1t ever when free
men shall stand
Between their loved homes and
the wars desolation.
Blest with victory and peace,
may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath
made and preserved us a ma
ton.
Then conquer we must when our
cause il Is just,
And this be our motto, "In God
Is our trust"
And the star spangled banner In
triumph shall wave
Ger the land of the free and the
home of the bravel
