the program, and the ultimate limit
Of astonishment was reached after
the regulars had been here a week
WITHOUT the expected advance toward
| the capital.
| 1t is only now that Vera Cruzans
are beginning to realize that Ameri-
can soldiers are giving them the best
city government they ever have had.
Some of them, still with hatred rankl-
ing in their hearts against the Grin
goes" may not admit this aloud. but
nevertheless Mexicans from the capi-
tai and other interior cities have
flocked to Vera Cruz for safety.
All this, of course, has bred great
respect and no little welcome toward
American fighting men, and Ameri-
can fighting methods. But there still
is another feature that these Mexi-
cans like about the situation.
The American marines, jack-tars
and regulars, not to mention the great
influx of refugees, form an army of
buyers who have caused intense de-
light to merchants. The best of it is
that the money the 10000 or more
American troops spend in local shops
is good United States money, and
not deprecated Mexican coin. All the
shops are open again and today the
native dealers, caterers, restaurant
eurs and the like are enjoying such
prosperity as they never enjoyed be-
fore. The great demand for food
stuffs to say nothing of clothing has
sent prices sky high.
Poems are being given regular work
on the docks and other points on the
waterfront, and on the streets. They
are paid at the rate of sixty cents
gold per day, an unheard of laborer's
wages in Vera Cruz.
All of the native enterprises, char
acteristic of Mexico are flourishing
The burro peddlers, corresponding to
the push cart venders of New York's
lower east side, are out en- masse. On
all the streets donkeys loaded down
with chickens may be seen. The fowls
mainly of the dominecker variety
alive, are swung heads down, from all
sides of the saddle and across the
| neck of the burro. The vender sits in
the saddle, and thus rides through
the residence districts, where the
housewives come out into the street
and bargain for the fowls.
Milk, ice, mineral water, fresh
fruits and beef and mutton are ped
died in the same manner, the vender
stringing his wares all over his beast,
donkey or horse, as the case may be.
The sight of such a vender never
fails to excite the interest and mirth
of the bluejackets and the American
colony.
All of the shops along the Avenida
Independencia-the Fifth avenue, or
F street of Vera Cruz-and around
the plaza, are open again and doing
a thriving business. Vera Cruz, never
before saw such run ON picture post
cards and souvenirs of all kinds. And
the haberdasheries, the tailor shops
are doing thriving business. Amer
ican refugees from Mexico City who
were forced to flee with only the
clothes on their backs, had to stock up
on their arrival. And the army of
correspondents and photographers
from the Uniteds States who came
down on warships had barely time
enough to get away with the clothes
they wore. All these people are buy
ing outfits of every description.
