WILSON GIVES HIS VIEWS

Following is the official statement is
sued as representing the views of
President Wilson and the administra-
ton on Mexico:
In discussions in official circles in
Washington Of the present Mexican
situation the following points have
been very much dwelt upon:
1T has been pointed out that. in
considering the present somewhat
delicate situation in Mexico, the I'M
pleasant incident at Tampico must not
be thought of alone. For some time
past the de facto government of Mex
leo has seemed to think mere apollo
gies sufficient when the rights of
American citizens or the dignity of
the government Of the United States
were involved and has apparently
made no attempt at either reparation
or the effective correction of the seri-
GUS derelietions of its civil and mill
tary officers.
Orderly Placed in Jail.
Immediately after the incident at
Tampico an orderly from one of the
ships of the United States in the har-
Dor of Vera Cruz. who had been sent
ashore to the post Office for the ships
mail and who was in uniform and
who had the official mail bag on his
back, was arrested and put into Jail
by the local authorities. He was sub
sequently released and nominal pun
ishment was inflicted upon the officer
who arrested him, but it was signifi-
cant that an orderly from the fleet of
the United States was picked out
from the many persons constantly 60
ing shore on various errands, from
the various ships in the harbor, rep
resenting several nations.
official Dispatch Withheld.
Most serious of all, the officials in
charge of the telegraph office at Mex
leo City presumed to withhold an off,
cial dispatch of the government of the
United States to it's embassy at Mex
leo City, until it should have been
sent to the censor and his permission
received to deliver it, and gave the
dispatch into the hands of the charge
d'affaires OF the United States only
upon his personal and emphatic de-
mand, he having in the meantime
learned through other channels that
a dispatch had been sent him which
he had not received.
United States Singled Out.
1T cannot but strike anyone who
has watched the course of events in
Mexico as significant that untoward
incidents such as these have not oc-
Cured in any case where representa-
tives of other governments were con-
cerned, but only In dealings with rep.
resentatives of the United States, and
that there has been no occasion for
other governments to call attention to
such matters or to ask for apologies.
These repeated offenses against
the rights and dignity of the United
States. offenses not duplicated with
regard to the representatives of other
governments, have necessarily made
the impression that the government
of the United States was singled out
for manifestations of Ill will and con-
tempt"

THE INSULT AT TAMPICo

Friday morning. April 10. a boats
crew of United States marines. in
command of Assistant Paymaster
Charles c. Copp, left the gunboat Dol
phine for Tampico to get a fresh sup
ply OF gasoline.
NThe United States flag was flying
from the stern of the whalehoat when
It approached the landing in Tampico.
For no assigned cause Assistant
Paymaster Copp and his men were
placed under arrest as they stepped
ashore.
After the Americans had been de-
tanned several hours. word of their ar
rest was carried to Rear Admiral
Mayo, who demanded their immediate
release.
The demand was complied with. but
the only reparation made was a brief
expression OF regret for the alleged
mistake.

Who led crusades and went to war
No doubt considered it sublime
To gain the ends they struggled for.
But when their deeds were done
They did not madly run
Around to find a market for their stories.
They appeared to be content
Though they didn't get cent.
To let Others tell the wonder of their
glorles
The heroes of the long ago
Whose lives were rislled ON land and sea
Were doubtless, when tire high and low
Applauded filled with honest glee:
But then they did not spiel
For pay in vo-de-veel
Or, risking public sneers and peers and
structures
Permit themselves, for gain.
To undergo the strain
OF performing it again for moving pic
lures.

NAVAL STRENGTH IN MEXICAN WATERS

ashington.-Never before in the
history of the nation has the strength
OF the navy been shown as it is in
Mexican waters today. A greater per-
centage of fighting machines were as

Spain, but the navy of 1898 had not
the fighting strength of the navy of
today either in number OF vessels. in

the level upper surface of the mole
two great rings of stone were fixed

Mr. Thompson declares estimates as
to the age of the city vary from less
than 1000 years to more than 1880
years. An idea of the intricacies of
the language of the people of the city
is given by the following quotation
from a document found there: "Lai u
tzolan katun lukci ii cab ii yotoch
Nonoual," which is translated to
mean, This is a series of epochs that
elapsed from the time of their de-
parture from the house of Nonoual
in the land Of Tulapan."
The writer tells legend concerning
Canek, the impetuous ruler of Chichen
liza, who loved the daughter of the
ruler of distant province. One day
a runner brought him the news that
the Batab of a neighboring and far
more powerful province had married
the maiden. Canek and his warriors
went to his enemy's city under cover
of darkness, while all was revelry
there in celebration of the wedding
After venting their fury on the drunk
en- celebrants they stole the bride of
an hour and disappeared. Never
again did Chichen Itza know its Lord
Canek nor any of his band of fighters.
Years afterward, hunting band from
Chichen liza made long journey to
the south. They finally reached q
lake, and in its center an island city.
The city was Tayasal and its ruler
the now aged Lord Canek.
He also tells of the arrival, recep-
tion and subsequent flight by night
of Montejo, one of the early Spanish
conquerors, in 1925. The Spaniards,
beseiged and almost without pro-
visions, tied dog to rope of a bell
and placed food just beyond his reach.
His efforts to get the food kept the
bell ringing and deceived the natives
into believing their captives were still
there. When the ruse was discovered,
the little band of Spanish soldiery was
nearly out of the enemy's reach

RUINS OF YUCATAN
Chichen liza, Home OF Forgot
ten Race, Described.
Former U. S. Consul Says Within
These Mysterious American Ruins
Are Books With Pages OF
Stone.

Washington, d. C.-Edward II
Thompson, former United States con
sui at Merida, Yucatan, In a com
munication to the National Geographic
society at Washington, D. c., describ-
ing Chichen liza, the home OF lot
gotten race, on the peninsula OF Yuca'
tan, declares that the American peo'
pie should awaken to the TACT that
they have right at home architecture
essentially American and ruined struc'
lures every whit as interesting ana
massive and possibly as old as those
of other lands, who boast that Ameri-
cans must come to them. Within
these mysterious American ruins are
great books, with pages of stone, writ
ten in characters that no man may yet
read" he declares. Are the mys'
teries they hold, the wonderful facts
that certainly lie sealed and mute
within them, hidden from us, less In
teresting to Americans than are the
tales of Egyptian dynasties, the rites
of Druids, Roman campings, or Saxon
raidings? I think not.
Mr.. Thompson describes what was
probably the first tennis or basket
ball court on this hemisphere and pos
sibly in the world "The ruined group
of Chichen Itza covers a space of fully
three square miles," he says. over
all this wide territory are scattered
carved and squared stones, In count
less thousands, fallen by the hun
dreds, while the formless remains and
outlined walls of huge structures fall
en- into ruin are seen on every side
Seven massive structures of carved
stone and adamantine mortar still
tower erect, and almost inhabitable
Several hundred feet to the west
of the castle temple rest two great
parallel moles of solid masonry, each
275 feet long, "a feet wide and 25 feet
high. Between these moles is the
