		TAMPICO, MEXICO (Nov. 7, 2002) -- The evening trade winds whipping off the sea in Tampico, Mexico are warm and moist.

	The Tampico Affair
		Dolphin landed at the Iturbide Bridge landing at Tampico with a whaleboat and boat's crew to take off certain supplies needed by his ship, and while engaged in loading the boat was arrested by an officer and squad of men of the army of General Huerta.
		General Huerta urged that martial law obtained at the time at Tampico; that orders had been issued that no one should be allowed to land at the Iturbide Bridge; and that our sailors had no right to land there.
		The incident cannot be regarded as a trivial one, especially as two of the men arrested were taken from the boat itself -- that is to say, from the territory of the United States -- but had it stood by itself it might have been attributed to the ignorance or arrogance of a single officer.
