City of Mexico
Y. M, 0. A. Building
a Fortress
G. I. Dabcook, general soceretary of
the Young Men's Christian association In
the city of Mexico, relates In tho Associa
tion magazine some Interesting Incidents
of the bombardment of the Mexican capl
ttal between tho forces of tho tat I'rcol
den Madera and tho revolutionists, under
General Felix Dlax. Secretary Habcoek
writes. In parti
The Association building, five stories
high, situated near tho cludadcta (the
arsenal captured by the Diaz revolution
ists), was promptly occupied by the revo
lutionary troops before the seven days
battle began, equipped with machlno guns
on the roof and on nit the floors and bo
came n very real fortress. Indeed, tho
battle was started by tho "Toung Men's
Christian association guns." When tho
war was over and tho building was given
back to Its peaceful purposes well nigh
a wreck, the. total damage reached
50,000.
The battle centering around the build
ing has given the association greater pres
tige, even, than it enjoyed before. Hun
dreds of people have called to see tho
damago And to tender sympathy, somo of
whom we have never known before.
Others hava expressed their regret for
tho occurrences by making substantial
contributions. A well known Mexican
physician called In to rco us before the
soldiers hod left the building and said
that "It was tho 'grandest' Institution
In the city and that in this time of
crisis he wanted to help, pledging him
self to every service nnd leaving a $50
subscription as ho did as pay for tho
losses of such an Institution as this!"
And we aro at least certain of the
well wishes of tho new government A
President Mcdcro's government was well
represented In the association, three of
his cabinet having been members, so
Is the new government. General Dlax, the
leader of the revolution and the next
president of Mexico, has for eight years
been a member of tho association nnd
for six years was a mcmbor of tho ad
visory 'board (his undo, President Por
flrlo Dlax, having dedicated the building
In the last year of his term). Lie,
iRodolfo Reyes, minister of justice, in tho
new cabinet, has for years been a mem
ber and Is greatly Interested In the
work. General Mondragon, the chief
revolutionist next to General Diaz, has
expressed himself as interested in tho as
sociation and has promised his active
help. Two of his nephews are members
of the association. Not a few of the
officers of the army are members of
the soldier's uniform Is a common sight
at all hours of the day.
