Imperial Valley press., 1914-05-21

The refugees from Mexico City have
nothing to do bat sit around the Plaza
cafes and talk. Consequently they
hear and create and disseminate some
of the most amazing stories. Baron
Munchausen had nothing on the ner-
vous and frightened Americans.
On the third night after the land
ing of Fletcher's marines, it was con-
fidentIy believed around the Plaza that
Zapata would attack the town before
dawn. Then came story that Vic
toriano Huerta had resigned and that
Senior Lopez Portillo y Rojas had sue
ceeded him as provisional president.
This, it was said would satisfy the
American Administration and end the
trouble. Those are only samples of
the astonishing yarns that were cir
culated and believed by the unin-
formed.
Imperial Valley press., 1914-05-21

owner, published his paper@in Mexico
City until he was forced to flee the
capital. He Immediately bought a
press here and issued his first paper
on Friday.
The publication of the "A.H.C." offer
caused much dissatisfaction among
the naval men and Americans here.
They Immediately conjectured that the
move meant a lot more delay.
The shooting by Mexican snipers of
a 16-year-old Mexican girl in street
near the Plaza was one of the most
pathetic Incidents of the two days
fighting. In the fighting the little
girls father was killed and she be-
came separated from her mother. Two
Red Cross men found her alone,
frightened and crying in house
which they searched. Placing the girl
Imperial Valley press., 1914-05-21

between them, the Red Cross men
started with her to place of safety.
On the way down the Avenido indie
pendencia snipers fired on the party
and the girl was instantly killed. 50
far &s known she was the only fe-
male killed in the fighting.
Another shocking incident was the
killing on the third night of a 12-
year-old Spanish boy. At 1880 that
night the patrol went through the
streets warning all natives to stay in
their houses. The Spanish boy was
told by his father to stay indoors
but when firing began his curiosity
got the better of him. He was shot
and killed almost in his own doorway
The u. S. S. Collier Orion has been
the busiest ship in the harbor since
the arrival of the Atlantic fleet. The
Orion carried 10000 tons of coal,
enough to fill the bunkers of five
dreadnaughts.
AS soon as the Arkansas took up
her position she coaled and then the
New Jersey and South Carolina emp
tied the Orion. Other golfers filled
the bunkers of the other ships.
No matter what some Mexicans
may think of the American marines,
Senorita Mas, the beautiful and
charming daughter of Gen. Mas, Fed
eral Commander of Vera Cruz, has
the utmost confidence in their hon.
esty.
When Gen. Mas and his family
fled to the interior Capt Anderson of
the Florida, in charge of all the mar
ines, occupied the Mas mansion as
his headquarters. All the rooms ex-
cept those occupied by Anderson AMI
his staff were locked up
Two days later Senorita Mas came
in from Soledad where her father
is camped and went to her home.
She asked the guard to allow her to
enter her boudoir and was appar-
emily surprised when he took out a
key from his pocket and unlocked
the door. Evidently the Senorita ex-
pected to find the whole house open
and Occupied.
Inside the room she went to her
dressing table and unlocking drawer
(more surprise) drew out a jewel
case. In it were rings, bracelets, neck
laces and other gold and diamond
jewelry worth a fortune. Finding her
jewels intact, the girl calmly put them
back into the drawer and locked it
again.
"I shall leave them here. They are
safer with los Americanos than with
me in these times," she said with a
bow and a smile. "Thank you, senor."
And she was gone, probably the most
astonished young woman in Mexico.
