Tense In Case of Uprislng-Pre-
pare for Capital Riots.

Vera Cruz, Feb 16-British marines
were landed here on Friday with two
machine guns and ammunition follow
ing orders received from the British
foreign Office. The purpose of the
landing is said to be for the protec-
ton of the British legation headquar-
ters.
The bluejackets landed from the
British flagship Suffolk late at night
and placed the guns on a car on the
Mexican railway, consigned to the
British legation in Mexico City.

tity of ammunition. 1t is assumed

cial institutions will lend the Mexican
government $75,000,000 1t is said
that arrangements for the loan were
made during the recent visit of Fran
cisco de la Barra to Toxic. The re-
ports caused considerable excitement
in view of the fact that the securing
OF such vast sum would assure
Huerta of relief from financial diff
culties for the present.

Joaquin Mas, commander of the
Vera Cruz garrison, received orders
from the war ministry in Mexico City
on Friday to make every effort to ar
rest the person who tried to assas-
sinate Lieut.. Arthur B. Cook, flag
lieutenant to Rear Admiral Mayo of
the United States battleship Connec-
ticut. The order was said to have
come direct from President Huerta
through the war office. AS the result
of the wounding of Lieutenant Cook, ex-
ira precautions were taken to protect
the life of John Lind, special envoy
of President Wilson in Mexico. The
guard about the American consulate
was doubled and Mr.. Lind is accom-
panied by an escort Of bluejackets
whenever he ventures out. Lieutenant

geon on board the Connecticut, Is not
