Secretary Tumulty said today: "The reportB that there have been attacks on the American forces at Vera Cruz or that a serious situation has arisen there, are without foundation. General Funston has reported to Secretary of War Garrison the stories refugees have brought from Mexico City with regard to conditions there.

She was reared here and graduated from our schools and married a Santa Cruz boy who has since risen to positions of BENDER MR MEXICO CITY.
