A WWI Diary That Never Was

WWI Diary was to have brought you the whole of World War I as it was reported in the papers of the day, exactly 100 years later. For a year I blogged news leading up to the big war, thinking if there was any real interest regular readers would trickle in. They did not. Count: zero. So I stopped blogging the war news. For students of the time, 1914-1918 editions are available on the Web as thousands of individual articles via a Times service called Spiderbites.

HAVANA, July 28.— Francisco Vasquez Gomez, formerly a candidate for the Presidency of Mexico, has arrived here from the United States after having conferred with Gen. Carranza in Northern Mexico.
He refuses to discuss conditions in Mexico, and says he intends to stay in Havana indefinitely.
