GIRL MARRIES FEDERAL OFF,
GER WHO GIVES UP.
She Induced Lieutenant to Turn Part
Of Mexico's Navy Over to
Her Rebel Father.

San Diego, Cal.-Love for the
beautiful daughter of the rebel
general commanding the forces at
Topolobampo, Mexico, caused Lieut..
Malpica, executive officer of the for
mer federal gunboat Tampico, to for
get his allegiance to President Huerta
OF Mexico and surrender the war craft
to the father of the girl he loved, ac-
cording to the story told by passen-
gers arriving here from ports on the
west coast of Mexico.
Lieut.. Malpica met the girl, who is
now his wife, several months ago at a
dance in Guaymas. They fell in love,
but the girl refused to accept the Of
ficers' proffer of marriage unless he
took the Tampico to Topolobampo
from Guaymas and turned it over to
her father.
Malpica, it is said, represented to
his commanding officer that he had
received word from Mexico City to
take the Tampico to Topolobampo and
shell the rebels. The captain, it is
said, assented. At Topolobampo the
captain was seized and sent to Mazat,
Ian.

Tampico, and a few days later was
married to the rebel generals daugh-
ter.

EVE HAVE LOST EVERYTHING"
SAYS BRIEF MESSAGE FROM
ANTHONY FIALA.
COLONEL is BELIEVED SAFE
Valuable Specimens Gathered by Ex-
petition Supposed to Be Lost in
the Rapids of a Tributary of
the Amazon River.

New York.-The following message
was received from Anthony Fiala, the
well known Arctic explorer and resi-
dent of Brooklyn, who is one of the
members of the party of Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, which plunged into the un.
explored wilds of central Brazil about
nine days ago, expecting to reach
Manaes, the commercial metropolis
OF the Amazon country, about 900
miles from the mouth OF the river:
San Tarem, Brazil (via Pernambu-
co, st. Vincent and the Azores).-
I'VE have lost everything in the rap
ids presumably rapids of a tributary
OF the Amazon river. Telephone my
wife OF my safety.
ANTHONY FTALA."
San Tarem is on the Tapajos river,
close to its confluence with the Anna
zon and about 500 miles from the
mouth of the latter.
No Word From Roosevelt.
Inquiries made showed that the
Roosevelt family had heard nothing
yet from the colonel concerning tho
mfshap of the expedition or his W
situation. 1t need not be inferred
from this fact, however, that the
colonel sustained any personal injury.
On the contrary, Mr.. Fiala's silence
on the subject indicates that the col
onel Is safe and that the loss is con.
fined to the equipment and the arch
geological and other specimens gath
cred by the expedition for the under
standing with Mr.. Ffala was that any
personal injury to the colonel was to-
be cabled Immediately and fully. It
is also probable that Mr.. Fiala him
self is not at San Tarem, but has en-
trusted his message to some native on
the way to that town.
Five Americans in Party.
In a letter written Jan. 16. from
Tapirapoan in Matte Crosse, a large
province in the ~south-central part of
Brazil, and received last week by
Frank M. Chapman, curator of birds
OF the American Museum of Natural
History, Col. Roosevelt said that in a
month or six weeks he would reach
the headwaters of an UNEMPLOYED river
and that he expected to go down this,
taking with him his son, Kermit, Mr..
Ffala and George K. Cherrie, a repre-
sentative of the museum, besides Col.
Rondon and other Brazilian members
of the party.
Col. Roosevelt did not say in this
letter whether the river had a name,
but Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., said that
in another letter his father had called
1t the Rio Duivata, or River of
Doubt"
