South China Prepares For Sunday's Game

A letter received from México yesterday by Mr. Lacayo, Consul Honorario de Mexico brought fur- ther detalls of the damage done to Tampico by the great cyclone which swept the territory a few weeks ago. The cyclone was fol- lowed by a rainstorm which caused two large rivers to overdow their banks and inundate the greater portion of the town. The recent report states that the Mexican president has flown over the stricken area on a tour of inspec tion and has authorized the ex- penditure of ten million dollars gold for reclamation work. This project will include the strengthen- ing of river banks and the con- struction of flood dams. The President, on his return to Mexico City, announced that he was high ly pleased from the manner in which the Federal troops had ren- .dered assistance in bringing order

General Anselmo Macias Valen- zuela Commander of the second military zone and president of special, committee formed to care for the sufferers, is believed to have rendered assistance, both 'personally and through his forces, to some sixty-thousand people, all of whom were rendered destitate and homeless, and to have distri- buted $231,150 gold among the un fortunate. This sum was contri- buted by public donation, the Spanish Colony, alone, in Mexico City giving twenty thousand dollars.
