the I
Food Is Purchased to Re
lieve Mexico City; There
Is Plenty Elsewhere.
Veracruz, Mex., June 1. Venustiano
Carranza toda. through his secretary
of war and marine, instructed the
authorities in all territory controlled
by him that they would be supplied
with cereals and provisions whenever
it Is necessary for the people to have
them. Six thousand tons of corn were
today purchased by the government.
The governor of the state of Quere
taro has telegraphed Carranxa that his
state has sufficient supplies to feed all
the southern part of Mexico until the
next crop.
The governor of Guanajuato tele
graphs that they have a big excess that
can be used to supply other localities.
The food situation in Mexico City is
declared pitiable and Carranza is col
lecting suDDlies to meet tbe situation
when the Constitutionalists enter the j
city.
DEW FAMINE CONDITION
IN VILLA TERRITORY
All women and children in Villa ter-
ritory who are in need of food will be
furnished with supples, free of charge,
through the commissary department oi
the division of the north. A procla
mation to this effect has been issued
bv Gen. Villa, according to advices re
ceived in Juarez. It is stated officially
that the suffering through lack of lood
in Villa territory is very limited, but
that Gen. Villa is anxious to guaran
tee against any suffering through
famine.
Americans returning from Torreon
and vicinity declare that conditions ap
pear little if any worse in that region
and between here and there than In the
old days. Farms are all under cultiva
tion, they say. and cattle are more
abundant upon the ranches than ever
ifnrp it is nointed out that fewer ex
hortations have been made under the j
Villa regime m uiimwuwa t,i.
dinarily made by tie owners, and the
multiplying of the herds has been as
rapid as in ordinary years, it is said.
"Woile there is a scarcity of food as
Americans would view it." said one of
these men, "conditions are no harder
than usual for the Mexicans. They are
generally always in want. If they can
get food for nothing, they won't work;
if they have to work for It. they get
along on just as little as possible. It is
no worse now than any other time, that
I can see." ........
Emphatic denial of the report that
consul SUliman had protested to Car
ranza regarding anarchistic conditions
in Constitutionalist territory is con
tained in a message from Veracruz re
ceived here. The report is credited to
"the eternal cahimles of the reaction
aries." Soup $6.25, Ham $13.25,
Bottle Of Beer Is $5.00;
Prices On Villa Pullmans
It is costly to eat on a Pullman car
In Mexico, if you figure Villa, money
as costly. Travelers returning from
south of Juarez, brmtr back Pullman
menus that read like prices during the
civil war in the United States where
Confederate money was the rule.
Soup appears on the menu priced st
55 25, cold boiled him at J13.2i. coffee
at $2 50 per cup and tea at 3 o per
cup San Antonio beer is quoted at $4
a pint bottle, a drink of Scotch whis
key is quoted at the same price and
two American cigars are quoted at
?.25. Other things are In proportion.
An American who returned yester
day, said the last breakfast he ate on
the train amounted to 518.65. He gave
the waiter a 520 bill and told him to
keep the change and the waiter
froWned on him for "a cheap skate."
MONTEREY HAIL NOW SENT
THROUGH NUEV0 LAREDO
Mail for Monterey, which has been
held up for some weeks due to the
fighting around that city, has now been
released and is entering Mexico by way
of Laredo.
Although there was not
large 1
quantity of mail at El Paso for Mon
terey, the officials in Nuevo Laredo had
held up the mail for weeks, refusing to
permit it to be sent to Monterey while
the Villa forces were still in control.
The matter had been taken up at
Washington by the British ambassador
but the evacuation of Monterey by the
Villistas settled the question.
MEXICANS IN AMBUSH
FIRE OH AMERICAN BOAT
San Diego, Cal , June 1. The Ameri
can fishing launch America arrived
here today speckled with bullet holes,
received, the crew said, at Punta Ban
da bay. 12 miles southeast of Ensenada,
Lower California. Bul'ets also tore
the clothing of the crew.
Owners of the boat said they be
lieved it was mistaken for a launch
attempting to land Chinese. The fir
ing began from ambush -when the
America dropped anchor and continued
until she was out of range.
TWO AMERICANS AND TIIKKK
"WBXIGAA" FIGHT OX C.H
Two Americans who were coming to
the American side from Juarez and
who were said by the street car crew
to have been drinking, engaged in a
fight on the Mexican side with three
Mexicans. The fight continued until
the international line was reached.
The Mexicans are said to have left
the car at the line, but the Americans
continued to El Paso. No one was ar
rested. What a sweepin' transformation a
weddin' dress must make in lots o girls,
fer who ever read of a homely bride?

Red Cross Would Stop Mu
nition Exports and Re
ceipt of Food.
Washington. D. C June 1 An em
bargo against exportation of arms to
Mexico aTid against imports of food
stuffs to the United States as a step
in relieving famine conditions below

state department indicate that in the
presence of famine, foodstuffs are be
ing shipped out of Mexico to tbe United
States, Cuba and elsewhere and that
In the United L'ates they are being
sold cheaper than over the Mexican
line.
Send Pood to Consuls.
As an experiment. Red Cross food
supplies will be sent to American con
suls who will form responsible local
committees to distribute them. The
j dispatch of two carloads of supplies to
I Monterey will test that method.
j Gov. Withycombe of Oregon has ad-
j vised the Red Cross he will appeal
I for aid and other governors are ex-
pected to reply to the Red Cross ap
peal quickly.
Carranza Gathers Food.
The Carranza agency announced re
ceipt of the following cablegram from
Veracruz:
Gen. Carranza, through tbe secretary
of war and marine, has instructed all
authorities in the territory controlled
by the Constitutionalists to supply
cereals and provisions whenever neces
sary for the people to have them. Six
thousand tons of corn were today pur
chased by the government.
"The governor of Queretaro wired
the first chief that 1ms state has suf
ficient supplies to feed all the south
ern part of Mexico until the next crop.
"The governor of Guanajuato wires
he has a-bigr excess that can be used
to supply other localities.
"The food situation in Mexico City
is pitiable and Carranza Is collecting
supplies to meet the situation when
the Constitutionalists enter the city."
Army Iotf An Food Depots.
