Washington, April 81. : The
American flag tonight flies over
Vera Cruz. Four Americans were
killed and twenty wounded when
a detachment of bluejackets and
marines from the American fleet
seized the customs house, raised
the American flag and skirmished
with the Mexican garrison. The
Mexican dead are estimated at
200, with many wounded and
prisoners.
Desultory firing was in progress
late today, according to a dispatch
from Rear Admiral Fletcher re-
ceived at 6 p. m. At first the
garrison appeared to be with
drawing. American Consul Can
ada reported this to the state de-
partment at 5 O'Clock, but when
the American forces reached the
customs house, the Mexicans
opened with rifle and artillery
fire.
The transport Prairie imme-
diately began shelling the Mexi-
can positions, slowly driving them
out. The Mexicans fought from
the house tops and along the
streets.
The American forces have TAX
en- possession of the cable office
and hold the American consulate
and the section of the city in the
vicinity of the wharves.

Sharp Resistance Commences.

Sharp Resistance Commences.
But the lull was not Indicative
of complacence. A few shots
came within few minutes and
later a brief exchange, and the
spectators, whose curiosity alone
brought them into the streets,
fingered, thinking it only a show
of resistance. But after another
brief interval, fighting in earnest
began, and hour after hour the
mexicans continued to oppose the
americans, fercely in some quar-
ters, although the main body ap-
parently seemed ready to quiz.
Fighting from Housetops.
Most Of the firing was done by
outpost parties placed on roofs of
houses at points Of vantage, whose
only choice was to keep on firing
Or surrender.
The guns of the Prairie assist
ed the landing party. Towards
evening the fighting continued,
but it was more Of a house top
character than a determined Or
garized resistance. Finally the
mexican soldiers who had not
been captured or wounded, re-
treated westward.
The demand for the surrender
of Vera cruz was made by Rear
Admiral Fletcher, through Consul
Canada at 8 O'Clock in the morn
ing. The consul called General
Gustavo Mas, commandant Of
Vera Cruz, by telephone, and pre-
sented the demands, saying that
the United States forces were
about to occupy and hold the
town. He called upon him to
surrender in the name of human
ity and assist the Americans in
restoring order.
General Mas replied that COM
! pliance with the demand was i'm
possible and asked the consul for
a personal parley.
Effort to Prevent Bloodshed
The consul informed General
Mas that he had no instructions
to grant a parley, and ended the
conversation. He then called the
jefe politico and the custom col
lector by telephone and informed
them of the prospective landing
and asked them ..foritheir co-opera-
ton in the maintenance of peace.
The customs collector requested
time in order to attend to certain
duties and neither could promise
any assistance.
Rear Admiral Fletcher, aboard
the flagship Florida, by this time
was in communication with Rear
Admiral Badger, commander-in
chief of the Atlantic fleet, who
was speeding towards this port
with five warships. Admira
Fletcher decided to take action
