(CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) tho rrairio to discontinuo its bombardment and the moment the guns ceased to roar, a detachment of Pritish marines rut off from one of their warships, and marched through the- streets to tho British consulate. The Knplish consul offered the protection of the union Jack to any American refugees who might cut off from the American consulate by the battle tiro. il!it UnDincs niriou By 2 o'clock the firing in the streets in Vera Cruz bevamo furious and the Prairie was directed to drop a few shells Into the quarters where the Mexican lire was heaviest. These shots avo re so well aimed that they drove the Mexicans from their improvised barricades--. Captain Hush of the Florida, who commanded the landing party, sent detachments of men to seize the postof:lce and the railway terminals. The American troops had to pass through a Fathing: riile Are from an unst-en enemy, but not a man tlinched. With three strnteie points of advantage in the hands of the Americans. Captain Rush decided that he held the city in complete control and refused to send any of his forces into the heart of the city and expose thti to

a needless death-dealing fire. At :) o'clock Captain Hughes cam ashore and as he passed by a squad of marines manning a three-Inch pun from the Florida, he stopped and grinned pleasantly. "Wei!, boys, are you having as much fun as you expected?" he asked. The marines cheered and one of them shouted: "You bet we are." Reports came to Captain Hushes that the .Mexican lire was increasing. At 3:1.0 he sent a me&sape to General Maas, the Mexican commander, savin? that if the Mexicans were not called off the American Meet would bombard the city. After 4 o'clock the Mexican fire died away, hut there were intermittent bursts which caused sreat annoyance to the United States forces. As niijht drew on the Americans attempted to pet some estimate of the Mexican dead. Early repoKj stated that between 150 and 200 Mexicans had been killed and many were wounded, hut It was believed that later figures would fall below this estimate. T h h task of ascertaining the extent of the Mexican dead was made doubly diiticult by the fact that many of the enemy tied, carrying bodies of their dead and wounded with them. Many Dead Witliout Uniforms. bailors who searched houses which the Mexicans had used as improvised fortresses, reported that many of the dead were without uniforms. This made it evident that the brunt of the bsrhtinff on the Mexican side had fallen upon civilians. Just before s. unset a party of ma

rines was sent to hold Second st., which leads from the water front to the main plaza. Machine kruns were plantexi to sweep tho plaza and troops were bivouacexl in the street during the nigrht to prevent Mexicans from approaching the harbor front along that route, during the darkness. At tho Junction of Callo Estand Morelos and Main St., he marines came upon a disabled 7 5-millimetre machine gun, from which tho Mexicans had directed a few volleys at the approaching Americans. Cramped behind the carriage was found the deaxl body of a Mexican olf.cer, one of the few who remained upon the firing line. The Mexican officers seemed to be paralyzed by fright for they made no effort to direct an organized de-

fence. j "Report Maas llceing. General Maas, accompanied by his

family, was reported to liave tied, from Vera Cruz in a carriage at mid-afternoon, when tho irresistible advance of the American tars was sweeping all beforo it. Some of his soldiers who remained behind took advantage of the chaotic situation to commence looting. When the Americin olHcers found a number of stores and residences which had been pillaped, orders were .jive n to the jackies and marines to shoot all looters on sifiht. The dead bodies of Mexicans, which were picked up In tho streets were buried during the niht. Members of the medical staff of tho United States ships a.ve treatment to wounded Mexicans.

These men had been met by a stiff lire but, flopping upon the dusy street on their stomachs, they returned bullet for bullet. liuildinga in sections of the city were torn by the shells from the fiveinch guns of the Prairie. The steel jacketed projectiles tore through the walls or ripped gap3 in the streets. During a part of the afternoon the sand dunes back of the city had been shelled, as lookouts on the Chet r reported that they thought Mexicans wero mounting long range guns there to firo upon the fleet. Consul Canada oincially reported to his government that he had informed General Maas that American trooj-s would be landed if tho federal. did nut surrender the city. Calls for Surrender. Three hours before the Americans were landed. Consul Canada called General Maas upon the telephone and said to him: "General, I am instructed to tell you that the United ?tates force-? are about to shell tho town and I summon you to surrender. I Gill upon you in tho name of humanity not to offer resistance or attempt to move any railr?ay trains, and to a-ssi.t In kcepins order." To this General Maas replied: "It is impossible for me to comply with your demand for surrender, as I am acting under orders to the contrary. I desire to talk with you." Consul Canada refused to consent to a parley. General Maas indicated that he did not believe that United States troops
