DISEASE GRIPS MEXICAN
CAPITAL, SAYS CONSUL
Needs Food and Hospital Sup
plies, Visitor Asserts.

New York, despite its plague of in
fantile paralysis, is a paradise OF
health compared with Mexico City,
declared A. F. Lesher, American vice
consul to Chispas, Mexico, who ar
rived at the Hotel McAlpin yesterday
from the Mexican capital. Conditions
in Mexico have been SO turbulent that
he has not been near Chiapas in the
last two years.
Not President Wilson's warning
particularly. but the shortage of food
and poor business conditions have
driven the Americans from Mexico
City" he asserted. "Of 10000 Ameri-
cans who in normal times make their
homes in the Mexican capital, | doubt
whether there are 100 left
"Gaunt disease stalks every street.
Between 200 and 500 cases Of typhoid
are reported each day. with heavy
toll Of deaths. American physicians
told me that the disease took 1000
victims some days. The dead are piled
in great heaps and burned.
"Grayback ice are the disease car
riers OF Mexico; not until they have
been exterminated can health condi-
tions be restored. The great needs OF
the country are food and hospital
supplies"

A sombre mourning wrap, earsIessiy
tossed aside, red roses undisturoed IN
their waIed- paper covering, . marriage
certificate, thumb-marked and worn
along It's folded edges, lay scattered
about yesterday on the bed that Anna
Maria de Marco had prepared in the
top hoor front room at 14l Mulberry
Street as a bier for Joseph de Marco.
Anna Maria loved de Marco as a hus-
band. but the grief that tore at her
heart when he was killed at b+ james
Street on Thursday afternoon, victim
Of his aspirations to gang leadership in
Harlem's Little Italy. had turned to
other emotions.
Another woman. with a prior ciain
to de Marcos body, was weeping over
another bier at 14O West 116th Street
Two small fatherless children played
In the apartment that was furnished
completely as home and in striking
contrast to the poorer rooms In themui-
berry Street tenement house. Samuei

ters comforted the other.
She would have TO return to WORK.
of course, but no little dc MARCOS were
clanoring TO her for their father.
Secret of Gangster's Dual Life
Meanwhile this secret in de Marcos
perilous life, that had been whispered
about only with cautious side glances
and to trusted confidants, passed the
lips of even the pushcart vendors IN
Mulberry Street. No one feared the con-
SEQUENCES yesterday. De Marco. the
prosperous restaurant proprietor and
powerful autocrat, was powerless TO
trace the whispers.
Anna Maria donned her mourning
dress early Yesterday morning, TOOK
her marriage certificate and her mother
along and went TO the Morgue. iran
ces Simonetti de Marco and her
brother-in-law started downtown on
the same mission-to get the BODY OF
Joseph and prepare it for burial. She
rad learned on Friday of the other
Mrs. de Marco. l..
Frances de Marco was the first to
climb the mortuary steps. Anna Mara
came a few minutes later. But JACK
Moran. acting keeper of the Morgue'
was aware then of the impending dls-
mite. News of de Marcos secret, 1t
seems, travelled rapidly since the snot

up the law and was prepared Tor frah-
