Mexicans Spit on Utah
Officers, Jackie Writes
Officials of the Huerta Government
use the most insulting and disgraceful
methods to humiliate the Americaris
and to show contempt for the United
States Government, writes Charles W.
McCoy, of Harrisburg street, Steelton,
who is on the Utah.
In a letter to his mother, McCoy, who
is assistant cashier on the Utah, tells
of the capture of the Utah paymaster
and his clerks. The Huerta officials
not only forced the Americans Into jai»
iwthout any cause, but spit upon tho
Utah officers, and called them vile
names. The letter concludes with a re
quest to the mother not to worry, as
Uncle Sam's soldiers will be able to
take care of conditions in Mexico.
Mexicans in New York
Fear Assassination
By Associated Press
New York, April 24.—Scores of non-
English speaking Mexicans in New
York, according to Manual A. Esteva,
Mexican consul general here, are
seeking transportation to the West
Indies or to Europe. Consul Esteva
declared that it was impossible to
convince these people that their fears
of arrest and assassination as a re
sult of the Mexican hostilities were
groundless. Many of these panic
stricken people visit the consulate
daily and assist that they will be at
tacked in the streets of the city if war
is declared. The well educated Mex
ican residents of the city, he said, of
coures havo no such fears.
Bad Water Worst Foe
of U. S. Army in Mexico
New York, April 24.—Bad water
will be the army's worst foe in Mex
ico if war is declared, according to
Colonel M. L. Maus, chief surgeon of
the first army division, which has
headquarters on Governor's Island
The water supply and sanitation
system of Mexico, he explained, were
so far behind modern methods that
if any army should be sent into Mex
ico City an entirely new system
would have to be provided. He es
timated that millions of dollars would
be expended by the United States for
sanitation and that form a health
standpoint American occupation of
Mexico would be a good thing for
that country. He did not express con
cern because of disease among the
soldiers except from typhus in Mexico
City which is responsible he declared
for the large mortality rate of infants
in that city.

t to the city.
Within the city sniping had almost
ceased this morning. A close watch
for sharp shooters was kept up all
night by patrols who marched through
the streets. Orders had been issued
that all civilians should keep within
their residences arter 7.30 o'clock in
the evening and these were strictly
obeyed. As a result the night hours
were quiet. It was generally expected
that unless some untoward incident
occurred to-day, this "curfew hour"
would be extended.
300 American*) I.a ml
Some 300 American, mostly women
and children, left for Galveston on
board the Esperanza and arrange
ments have been made for removing
from the coast towns as soon as pos
sible Americans who can be induced
to leave.
More than 1,000 Americans are re
ported to have left Tampico wher
they were given the most urgent ad
vice that they had better make their
departure.
The Chester is to be sent to Fron
tera, Coatzacoalcos and other coast
towns to urge .Americans there to bo
ready to embark on the Ward liner
Monterey, which is due here to-day
from Havana.
Only three of the American wound
ed are in a critical, condition.
Owing to the prompt and efficient
Hrll hospital corps and the quick ar
rival of the wounded men on board
the Solace, no infected wounds were
discovered. The dead have been em
balmed and their bodies are lying on
board the Solace ready to be sent
north at the first opportunity. Naval
surgeons s:iy that most of the wound
ed will be able to return to duty in a
short time.
