BELGE CAPITAL
GAY ANO FREE,
ANTWERP, June 7.-The cafes of
Antwerp, where American "jazz" mu
sic resounds nightly untrlN the, early
morning hours and champagne -corks
pop continuously lit aO to 100 franks
a pop, are so croiVdari even now with
tourists, yuilors in for a shore cele
bration, and local1 'spendthrifts that
their proprietors wonder what moio
can happen when Antwerp is crowded
with visitors to (he Olympic games.
There aro no spirits sold except
aurfeptitiously but the wine flows
so continuously in the gilded cahar
ets, and the beer so continuously In
the sailors "estaipincis" down near
the docks, that the noise and danc
ing know no hounds.
Some of the dock saloons have been
especially rechristened since Ant
werp became the chief American port
on the continent, to. catch tho trade
of the American sailor and make
them feel as It tney were down by the
docks at home in the auti-prohibltien
days.
One finds Amercian sailors reach
ing out their unpraeticed feet tor the
bar rails in '"Dirty Pick's Place," or
"Sailor Jim's" down by the docks,
consuming large schooners of beer
that look like the pU-lures on the
frosted windows of "the biggest beer
in town."
Thoro are just as manymerchant
sailors in the expensive cafes, spend
ing freely and dancing hard.
American consular and other
Antwerp authorities aro awake to
the ncceftaity of establishing some
kind of recreation halls for the mer
chant sailor hero, to takes the place
of the cafes, hut, they told the eor-
resprndent. there seems as yet no
way of doing it.
'"Pig recreation halls, with plenty
of music and li.uht beer would serve
the purpose splendidly," one consu
lar official said. "Jack is bound to
spend his money when nshoro."

MEXICO CITY, June 7. One of
the exciting incidents preceding the
revolt against President Carranza
was the escape of General Itenjanitn
Hill, chlet lieutenant of General At
varo Obregon, who fled from the cap
ital hidden in a pile of sucks in a
milk wagon.
General Hill vanished from tho
capital on the same night as did Gen
eral Obregon April 13. The wagon
in which Hill was hidden was Btopped
by the police In the suburbs of the
capital because it did not carry a
light. While the driver was bribing
the policeman to pass the HghtlesH
vehicle; General Hill dropped out of
the back of tho wagon and hid In the
shadow of a building until the police-
man was mollified. Then the general
crawled back into the wagon and con
tinued his flight.
Mystery surrounding - the fate of
Roberto Ccjudo, to testify In whose
trial General Obregon was summoned
to the capital, furnished one of the
tragic high lights of the Carranza
evacuation. With General Arnulfo
Gonzales, captured by Carranza gov
eminent agents near Nuevo Laredo
on April 30, and the aged rebel Gen
eral Gaudenclo do la Llave, Cejudo'
was taken.from the military prison of
Santiago Tlaltoloco here tho night of
.May G when tho Carranza adherents
fled. ' .Whether he was taken on the
Cniraiiza trains the- next day- and
escaped, or whether He was executed,
together with the two others, remains
a mystery. None of them have been
located altho several other generals,
arrested prior to the evacuation, have
returned to Mexico City. '
Cejudo was arrested, with his staff
and 150 followers, at Jalapa, V. C, on
March 2S, after he had surrendered
received amnesty, been given the
rank ot general in the Mexican army
and placed in command ot a district
near Jalapa, where previously he had
led a revolt against tho Carranza gov
ernment for six years. He was charg
ed with surrendering merely to se
cure arms and munitions with which
to aid Helix Diaz.
The Carranza government charged
that he had offered to aid Obregon
but Obregon, in an Interview given
the Associated PreBS, branded the Ce
judo charges as a scheme to' bring
him to Mexico. City, Involve him in
charges of treason and block his
campaign for the .presidency.
