MISSIONARY DECLARES
HUERTA A DRUNKARD
Elder G. W. Caviness Tells of
Atrocities of, the Dictator
of Mexico.

Elder G. W. Caviness. head of the S.
d. A. mission work in Mexico. and has
lately come from Mexico City, lectured
at the Washington Foreign Mission Sem
mary yesterday.
Mr. Caviness told of the experiences
of Americans in Mexico City when their
government had cut OF all hope OF
escape when it seized Vera Cruz April
o. There was little violence in the
capital, although Huerta ordered many
patriotic demonstrations to be made. and
forced the papers to print absurd reports
of the atrocities of Americans. One re-
port that he circulated was that the
Americans had sunk a Spanish ship in
the harbor of Vera Cruz in order to get
to the ammunition ship that was land
ing.
When the people of Mexico City found
these things were lies reactionary tide
of sympathy toward the Americans set
in. and many natives refused to believe
that the Americans had taken Vera Cruz
even. Since this time there has been
so much danger of a revolution in the
capital itself. that the natives are in
far more terror of their lives than the
foreigners.
The speaker said Huerta is an Indian.
and a habitusl drunkard. capable of any
atrocity. He told a story concerning the
dictator that was going the rounds in
Mexico City when he left.
AS Huerta was beginning to drink, ons
afternoon his officers came to him and
reported the capture of a band of Ia
patistas, asking what should he done
with them.
Shoot them" was the answer.
Soon after. they came again, report
ing the capture of some more.
Shoot them" said the general. who
was getting quite drunk by this time.
An hour or SO later the officers came
to him again. saying that company of
his soldiers had been loaded on a train
for the north, but they could not all get
on, and asking what should be done
with the hundred or so that were left
over.
By this time all the general could do
was mutter.
Shoot them" he blubbered.
Mr.. Caviness has no faith in mo
rebels proving any better than the

Not Fitted for High Command.
When Gen. Mcclellan was relieved
Of command on November T. 1852, for not
having vigorously pursued Lee after
the battle Of Antietam, Gen. Burnside
was named as his successor. He ac-
cepted the post with reluctance and
throughout his incumbency as COM
mander of the Army of the Potomac
showed In many ways that the burden
put upon him was heavier than he
could bear.
Having moved the army to Freder-
icksburg. he hurled IL against tha
fortified heights back of that town on
December IS. 1862, and sustained there
a bloody defeat. which led to his be-
ing relieved of the command. Gen.
Joseph Hooker being named as his sue
cessor.
The question of what to do with Gen.
Burnside was now again before the
administration. He was so willing so
popular. and SO loyal that Presiden.
Lincoln felt that he should be contin-
ued in high command. He was sent.
therefore. to Cincinnati and given the
Department of the Ohio. The Ninth
Corps went with him.
In the campaign against East Ten
nessee in which Burnside was besieged
at Knoxville and was saved from sur
render or retreat by Grant. who sent
troops to his aid from Chattanooga.
the Ninth Corps followed their old
commander.
Their transfer back to Virginia was
logical result of the events culmi-
mating in the relief of Knoxville.
Throughout these vicissitudes the men
of the corps had never lost whit OF

the value of amiability in a general

his Memoirs az follows:

himself. He always admitted his blum
ders and extenuated those of officers

titled to. 1t was hardly his fault that
he was ever assigned to a separate
