lama, an Anaertcan neerapaper corra
apondt-nt. who had made eimilar appli
t-ation to the consulate. wore alao taken
on board tho gunboat with Oeneral
Diaz.
Late Utffl afternoon General Diaz WM
transfrtr.4 to the battleship Louisianu,
Hear Admiral Fl.tehcr's flagsM*.
tvhere he waS allotted quarters in tlM
tvardroom.
The Hlght took plaee after mldnlght,
the three uh i. then taking the risk of
an excuision over the rooftops, which
tv.re fuarded by armod men. into the
American Conaulate.
The refufeea dropped over g Bm waii,
made thalr way into one of the rea?
rooms of tho consulate and asked that
Consul William W. Canada shouid be
called. Appurcntly suffcring from
great excitemeni. they aaaured the con
fuI thal Ihoy wera conlldonl that their
lives ware in immincnt danger. They
fleclared they had knowledge Uiat or
Sers for their arrest had been issued
fcnd they begfed for his protection.
Told to "Run for It."
Consul Canada pointed to the water
front, about 200 yards dlstant, a?ad
told th*' refugees that a launch was
there and to make a run for it.
The nien hefldtated for some time to
?nake tho venture, as the atreet in
front *f the coneulate was patrolled by
itvcral detOCtlvi g,
when I'iaz and his companatong
inally left the door of the consulate
the detectlvea on duty apparantly did
iot recognlze them. and they walked
leUberately paat them to the ptor,
flrhere they preeented a card from Con
gul Canada to the offlcer in command
7rf the launch.
The Offlcer hurried them on board
the launch. east off, steamed quickly
borooa the harbor to the Wheeling, and
mt them on board the gunboat.
The detectlvea in front of the hotel in
:he etreatg wore still watchlng the
?ia. .? until long after dayUght
Qanaral Diaz and his companions,
onea on board tbe WbeoUng? soon re
rovered thelr equanimitj. but this
Tnorning they reiterated thelr belief
:hat they were to have been shot to
lay.
John l.ind. the personal representa
tive of l'resident Wiison, has notified
the State Department that everything
possible has bw-n done to protect Cen?
tral Diaz. ln his dlspatch he included
a letter sent by him to Rear Admiral
Fletcher. in which he says he was and
Ss convinced that the nfugees were in
Immincnt pcril and asks that they be
cared for OO board the Wheeling or
t.noth*r \essel until the arrival of in
etructions from Washington.
General QuataVO Maas. commander
of the federal troops at Vera Cruz, ap?
peared tti-d.-rv tO b8 moro amused than
provoked by the action of General Diaz
ln taking refuge on a Unlted States
warship. The commander insisted that
he had no orders for the- arrest of
General Diaz, and that be bad no or?
ders to protest against the action of
the Unlted States in affording asylum
to hlm.
"Only a Technical Fault."
Oeneral Maaa says that Diaz might
annie ashore now without molestation,
as the only fault he haa cominiltcd is
u technical on?- Indcr tlie army regu
latlons a retired offlcer is expected to
give notice of any thange in his resi?
dence, and Oeneral Maaa says that
Diaz .shouid have been "courteous
enough to inform the War Department
thal.he desired to live aboard a for
??igr. warship."
lt became known to-day that Ocon
and Sandoval, who accompanied Gen?
eral Diaz. wuuld la all probability have
been arrested to-dny, but the govern?
ment, it la believed, la well satisfied
in havlng forced Diaz into a position
which it rcgards as ridiculoui8.

To Improve on I. W. VV.
On the grt of the great battle last
Blghl "Ceoeral" Brill delivered himself
of the following pronunclamento:
"These. bnrbers see how futile are tbe
methods of the I. W. W. We are prof

body, and are declarlng strikes in one
aeetlon at a tlme."
Although tbe wording of this threat
bad sinlster signiflcance. those Inti
mately aoquainted with Mark Rrill pro
feSaed laat niKht to believe he meant
every dreadful WOTd of it. The sullen
biarinp ?'f the devoted army at "<',en

Devoted beads of famiiies will kiss
thelr wives with the dread thought
thal p-rhaps they will be unrecognized
when they return.
And what lies behind this? The de*

on week days. except nn Wednesdays,
when th.-y ara wllllng to work until fl
