Quiet at Vera Cruz

Vera Cruz, June 2.-Outside of the usual crop of unsubstantiated rumors, ranging from Huerta's resignation and flight to an impending attack on the American outposts, nothing disturbed the routine of life in Vera Cruz today.

 It Is reported that since the landing of arms and ammunition from the German steamers Ypiranga and Bavaria and n big shipment by way of the west coast, the federals are issuing rifles and am munition to any native who makes appli- cation The populace between Vera Cruz and the capital is well armed. The first result of this is said 70 have been an anti Huerta rising in the region of Puebla
 Refugees said federal officers at Cordo- ba appeared to expect such movement at any time. They also said they heard in Cordoba that the mile and half section on the Mexican railway near Vera Cruz. where the tracks were torn up, Is to be relaid.

Telegram Not Answered

This telegram was not answered, the mediators have claimed, because they made themselves sufficiently clear in a previous telegram. The note brought last Friday by MT. Urquidi expressed surprise that this inquiry by the con stitutionalist chief had not been an- swered. The mediators, 1t is understood. have In their note to Zubaran reiter- ated that the chief points in which they are concerned are a suspension of hos tilities In the civil strife and a discus sion of Mexico's internal as well as international affairs. The Zubaran com munication and its reply will be made public here tomorrow.
 The decision to send the reply was reached after the American delegates conferred with the mediators. The Americans were so encouraged by the prospect of reopening the correspon- dence that they felt justified in going ahead with the peace plan worked out previous to the injection of the con stitutionalist controversy.

Mentioning Names

A'esAA~~o
Not long ago man came into this Of
flee ana stopped his paper because he
said il vas always printing lot OF news
about the same people and he was sick Of
it.
Now, when something goes wrong with
the country the Government appoints a
commission to investigate and find out
what is the matter. And the first thing
the commission investigates is the man
who made the holer to see if the boiler
was reasonable boiler
50 we appointed commission consist
ing of ourself to investigate his man
We ddn't have to go cut anywhere to do
it. We just sat in the EDITORS uneasy
chair and folio we'd that mans career even
since we knew him.
The first thing that happened to that
nothing to do with that However, we
mentioned it, and mentioned him, al
though his parents were entitled 10 all
the credit.
When he was in his early twenties he
got married, and we mentioned that, in
Guiding the name of the bride and he
preacher and the relatives from some
where else. Ia fact we mentioned every.
thing but the preachers fee, which was
hardly worth mentioning.
We must confess that the only time we
have ever mentioned him since was to
say that he was wearing broad smile
because OF the arrival of a boy or girl.
We searched our files but we must own
up that the only time he ever broke into
the paper was by the help of somebody
else.
We never mentioned the fact that he
ever won any premiums at the county
fair, because he never exhibited any
thing. We never included his name in
list of committees because he never at
tended anything. We never printed his
name in list of doners to anything, be-
cause he never donated so much as a
doughnut.
We certainly have been treating this
man shamefully. But we will agree to
run nice obituary when the time come s
and tell you who were at the funeral.
We will even give him special prom.
nence, although we honestly believe he
will be the most unimportant person
there.
At the same time, we are afraid we
will have to 60 right ahead mentioning
those people that we have been men ton
ing with such frequency. They have a
habit of boosting the board of trade, and
helping the church, and mixing in poll
tics, and getting up parades, and financ-
ing the baseball team, and running the
lodges, aud a lot of other things, so their
names are bound to creep into the paper.
But, come to think of it, that isn't
news about them so much as it is news
about the town. For it is such things as
these that are making the town life and
the town progress; and if we left their
names out, we would pretty nearly have
to leave out the name of the town. And
we won't do that-not if we lose two
ibers.-Exchange.

was done: Europeans hold great

crisis came they saw the need of &C
tual money In place Of these bonds.
They cabled to their American bro
kers to sell at the market price. They
took whatever they could get, but
there was always something offered,
so the sales we're heavy.
The purchasers of these bonds gave
their checks. These the brokers
cashed at their banks and got curren-

brokers, getting the currency from
the banks, went to the sub-treasury in
New York and asked for the actual
gold. They received 1t and sent the
gold to their customers abroad.
