MEXICO CITY POLICE
ROUND UP CRIMINALS
MEXICO CITY.—The abandoned
penal colony on the group of islands
off the coast of Tepic, known as
Las Tres Marias, it is expected, will
be reestablished to accommodate
.he small army of habitual criminals
which the police of the capital have
rounded up in their latest raids. A
wave of holdups and robberies that
recently swept Mexico City resulted
in a general cleanup which, within
less than a few weeks, brought in
about 500 prisoners, many of whom
had escaped from prison.

SAVANNAH WILL
CELEBRAIE DAY
OF BIG IMPORT
SAVANNAH,—The centenial an
:
mversary of trans-Atlantic steam
navigation will be celebrated here
on May 22, the date when the
Savannah, the first ship to cross the
Atlantic propelled by steam and
the forerunner of the great ocean
greyhounds of today, sailed from
this port for Liverpool on her his
toric voyage.
The Savannah was built at New
: York city and was launched on
August 22, 1818. She was mastered
by the two Rogers—Captain Moses
Rogers being the commander, and
Captain Stevens Rogers, the sailing
master. The vessel left New York
March 28, 1819. and arrived in this
city for the first time on April 12.
1819.
On May 22. 1819, the trip across
the Atlantic was started from this
; port. Everything went well until
.lune 17, when the vessel was stop
ped by the British cutter Kite,
whose commander thought the
Savannah was on fire and stopped
to assist in fighting the flames.
The vessel was stopped outside
Liverpool by an English sloop of
war, whose commander wished the
American vessel to display the Brit
ish colors above its own. Captain
Rogers refused and threatened the
British officer with a boiling water
bath if he did not leave the ship.
He immediately left.
The Savannah docked in Liver
pool on June 20, after completing
the voyage in twenty-nine days and
eleven hours. The engines were
used only eighteen days on the
trip.
me entrance or the savannah
under full steam caused excitement
in Liverpool and while the vessel
remained in port it was the center
of interest. The Savannah then
proceeded to Stockholm, and on
September 18 arrived at St. Peters
burg (now Petrograd) where she
was inspected by the American and
foreign ministers and the nobility.
The ship left St. Petersburg on
September 29, 1819, and arrived
in Savannah on November 30, after
an absence of 192 days.
This was the first and last trip
of the Savannah across the At
lantic. Afterward her engines were
removed and she was used as a
sailing vessel between New York
and Savannah. She was wrecked
; off Long Island in 1821.

pected that she will be ready for
service _ in a very short time.

and most experienced river navi
gators, will command the boat; with
