Water Supply Diminishes Military and federal authori ties put forth herculean efforts to meet their needs for food, water and medicines. It waa be lieved the water supply could not be restored tor five or six days. With Its food supply rapidly diminishing, Tamptco awaited with growing anxiety the arrival from Monterrey of a train with food and medicine and soldiers to help In reconstruction work. The train waa delayed by floods. If it cannot reach this city plans were afoot to Import supplies by air until the arrival of a steamship from Vera Crus.

And then, with surprising sud denness, a revolution swept him from the presidency and he fled to the barracks of friendly sol diers to escape the fury of a mob. But when he died three years later he was given the greatest funeral In Argentina's history. Two hundred thousand persons accompanied his casket as It was borne through the streets of Buenos Aires on the shoulders of sdmirers white others tossed flow ers from balconies as the strange cortege passed. Call It "Latin temperament" or what you will, but such, in brief. Is the story of Or. Hipolito Iri goyen, late president of Argen tina. l'nrt FUtnea Into Revolt Portly, putty-faced Dr. Iroitoy- en. who had devoted most of bis 80 years to politics, was another of those South American presi dents who were tossed overboard by revolution when the depres sion closed in. In this case, it was the slump in the world mar ket for cattle and wheat that brought on a political crisis. Popular unrest, marked by riot ing In several provinces, bsd been growing for some time, but the spark that touched off the revo lution in September, ' 1930. was the action of Irigoyen's police in firing into a group of students who were demonstrating against the government la Buenos Aires' Plaxa de Mayo. That was on Thursday night; by Saturday, Iri goyen. It-year dictator of Argen tina, was fleeing for his life. A Man of Mystery Irigoyen's story goes back a long ways. A political figure since 1893, when he had succeed ed his uncle as bead of Argen tina's radical party, Irigoyen broke the landed classes' control of the government when he was elected president in 1916 for a six year term. In 1922, being pro hibited from running for re-election without an Intervening term, he dictated the election of his successor, Marcela de Alvear. In 1928 he chose to resume the pres idency and was elected easily. A queer old man who lived In seclusion, shunned demonstra-1 man attributes, but this feeling ex- pioded when the depression swept Argentina and the country found, as did Irigoyen, that he could do I nothing about it. I Discontent Increased as distress ! spread and then came the action of the police in liring into the crowd In the Plasa da Mayo, and Irigoyen was swept aside in the wild uproar that followed. The revolution was engineered by General Jose t'rlburu, who raptured the government house after a brief but bloody battle with loyalist troops, and took charge as provisional president. The army, navy and a large part of the populace went over to Url buru. and his triumph was com plete. Irigoyen .Marie I'rlnonvr At La Plata barracks, where the fleeing Irigoyen sought safety, he arrived in the dead of the night, accompanied only by his personal physician. Dr. Meabe. Irigoyen was made prisoner and transferred to a warship In La Plata river. There he was con fined for some time and then tak en to a land prison. Preparations to place him on trial for alleged nial-admlnistratlon of the presi dency were begun. When Provisional President Uriburu delayed calling an elec tion to choose a constitutional president, new riots broke out. but Uriburu put them down with a stern hand. Finally in No vember. 19S1 an election was held and General Augustin P. Justo was elected overwhelming ly. Among President Justo's first acts were decrees permitting the return of political exiles, the lift ing of martial law that had pre vailed for nearly two years, re storation of a muizled press and a pardon for ex-President Iri goyen. But Irigoyen, though over thrown, was not through. In De cember. 1932. he was arrested, with others, on charges of plan ning a counter revolution to re gain the presidency. The govern ment alleged that they plotted to seize power by means of a series of terroristic bombings. Buenos Aires police claimed to have found 400 bombs at the conspira tors' headquarters. For some reason, little seems to hare been done about the charge. In July. 1933, death cam to School Teacher Has A Contract But No Scholars BtLVERTO. Sept. IS.

HUT WILL EL Irigoyen and with It, apparnt ly, came ft return of th old hero's popularity In the eyes of Argen tina's masses. Never before, or since, has South America seen funeral like that accorded hint. -Coffin Seised by Mob A mob of thousands of Irigo yen's admirers took the funeral out of the hands of the govern incut and hooted, jeered and drove away the government cav alry that had been sent as an es cort of honor. When the pall bearers Includ ing former President de Alvear aud former United States Am baa sad oc Pueyrredon carried the coffin downstairs from the tiny apartment, the mob swept aside the police and refused to permit the coffin to be placed In the hearse. They inslsfed that It be carried on their shoulders. Thus, with the dead ex-president's casket borne by a do ion men. the strange march to the cemetery was begun. Ahead marched 100.000 radical party delegates from all parts of the country; behind came an unor ganlied crowd of 100.000. Greatest in IHaih So great was the jam at the cemetery gate that the men car rying the coffin, jostled by thv swirling mob, dropped their bur den into the street. I Fifteen orators extolled Presi dent Irigoyen's virtues at his grave. And so. thiB strange man who , for 14 years had ruled Argentina j as a dictator who lived alone in 1 a tiny flat above a tobacco shop and always shunned formality and demonstrations of every kind came to be honored In death In a ! manner he had never known In ' life and by the same people from : whose fury be once fled for his safety.
