VERA CRUZ IS
HONEY-COMBED
With Subterranean Passages
That Enabled Snipers to Mys
tify The Americans.
United Press Service.
Vera Cruz, Mexico, May 27.—
That the heart of Vera Cruz
is a veritable honey-comb has
just been discovered by the A
merican forces ocupying the
port. Subterranean passages
have been discovered connecting
nearly all the buildings within
several squares of the Plaza. The
bluejackets under Admiral
Fletcher discovered on the first
day that the roofs of all the
houses in a block were so con
nected that snipers might be a
considerable distance away from
the spot from which shots were
fired by the time the sailor boys
entered the house
The discovery of the under
ground passages supplementing
the inter-roof communications
explained why the men from the
ships were unable to capture the
snipers who fired on them. Dur
ing the two days of actual fight
ing and the several days of des
ultory sniping thereafter, the
bluejackets and marines were
frequently mystefied by the
complete disappearance of the
men they knew fired on them, or
else the sudden appearance of
the men in some other house, un
armed, no weapons to be found
and smiling in friendly fashion,
meanwhile uttering whole vol
leys of “amigos”.
Early in the game it was dis
covered that there were innum
erable passages from roof to
roof, by which the Mexicans
scurrying away when their snip
ing point of vantage was dis
covered. Frequently, when the
Americans discovered a roof
from which shots were being fir
ed, they would storm the house
and search it. Either they would
find the place utterly deserted,
or they would find the house
holder on the ground floor, not a
gun in sight. The discovery of
the tunnels today shed a great
deal of light on the escape of the
snipers and the failure of the A
mericans td get them “with the
goods.”. It is now obvious that
once the Mexicans knew their
places of concealment were dis
covered, they scuttled away over j
the roofs and through the sub-;
terranean passages and were in
some totally different house
when the Americans finally
caught them.
One Proper Form of Pride.
Pride Is one of the seven deadly
sins; but it cannot be the pride of •
mother in her children, for that Is a
compound of two cardinal virtues—
faith and hope.—Charles Dickens.
