He described himself ax one of "Ood Al mighty's cntV and stirred the pat riotism of the crowd bv reference to Old Olory, the civil war in which he fought, and tender recollections of Dixie. A professional southerner at Him juncture let loose a rebel yell. Kverv now and then the npplanse- KC tiers of the ulnge were dropped to pour the grape shot of wrath into I lemon Rum. S ntistics and arguments ngnint the licpior traffic were introduced by the speaker with great vim and wgor and much wnviii" of long anus. Some telling arguments were intro duced, and the country wns predicted ns "dry as n bone" in ten years.

The Mexican troops who remained In the town were practically without officers. They were scattered about the central part of the city. Many, too, had deserted tholr commands. Large number of them were found last night roaming the streets drunk. Two small liquor stores wero looted by them. lUmtrLft Deserted A detachment of bluejackets which' Invaded the barracks lot night found tho placo deserted. Assuming that the Mexican soldiers had fled or were hiding on the roof", the Americans returned to their firing line which encircled an area of several blocks each way from the consulate. Yesterday's despatches Mating that four American were killed and 20 wounded In the occupation yelerda were accurate. The number of tho Mexican casualties was not known.

Something more than 1000 blueJajKets and ma rines went uhore and at 11:30 a. in. tho seizure of the custom houso and various waterfront offices had been completed, At 12:30 tho Mexican garrison showed it first sign of reitancc.

"Of course, if word comes before the nnny moves that theie has been n massacre at Mexico City, marines and bluejackets now at Vera Cnu must necessarily form a relieving column and make a foreul ndvaiiee on the Mexican capital.
