He is, 100, the slaunch friend oil Paroles, and
then Paroles was President was his main stay.
| have been surprised TO learn that a man OF Ru-
bios immense wealth, and with The stake he has
in the country, was opposed 10 peace, as ne must
know that The nationality OF the country
is LOST if The treaty. now al Querelaro is not
ratified. But he is the owner Of some
of The largest cotton factories in Mexico
and may desire The extension OF The American
Government over III whole country 10 give that
security 10 industry which experience has proved
never will exist under The Mexican Government.
He is a large Commercial Spectator besides, and
like many others of that class, may be opposedto
peace al the present time, ir>t The goods they have
ordered from abroad may rive after the treaty
has been ratified, and when he Mexican tariff
will have come into operation again. This has
been suggested 10 me as one reason for his oppo-
silion 10 peace by an old and intelligent resident
OF this city, who knows him well. From what |
hear of The character and power Of Rubio, | al
zach great importance TO the position he takes in
regard to the treaty. The Monitor Republican,,
published in this city, a strong advocate OF peace,
although treating the letter 10 which | have re-
ferred AS a hoax, al the same time tacilly con.
lesscs that The government has reason 10 beware
OF its enemies. Enclosed you will find the arti-
Gle Of The Monitor on the subject.
There are numerous rumors atioal here in re-
lation 10 money and munitions coming into The
country 10 prosecute the war. | have very good
authority for stating that both arms and ammuni.
lion are being received through Acapulco from
South America in considerable quantities.
QUERETARo, April 81, 1913.
American d~eserters are continually arriving
here; during the last three days twenty soldiers
presented themselves to the Mexican Govern
ment, and were Immediately incorporated in
the San Patricio Company.
The garrison of Querctaro is composed of
$40 men of all arms. Eight hundred men have
deserted, with arms and baggage, from the army
OF reserve, $500 strong, which the Government
had sent against the insurgents at Sierra Gordo.
A wager of 500 0 has been made for and
against peace; several Deputies are concerned
in The bet, and it is said that Mr.. Rubio, the
principal better, has staked $1,000 agains. the
peace.
The number OF Deputies is completed. Tho
arrival of the American Commissioners is look
ed for in order to open the Congress. The
Consuls of the foreign powers are all here.
Anxiety is at its highest pitch, and the delibc-
rations Of Congress are longed for as is the
coming of the Messiah.
II has transpired from the meeting held by
the officers Of the artillery that they have made
a demand on the Government to receive their
pay in the SAM manner that the members of
Congress receive it, and that they have made an
assessment to furnish supplies 10 Landero, but
the nature Of these supplies is not known.
The following is the article alluded TO by our
correspondent:
THERE is AN END TO PEACE!-The
Government OF Pena y Pena has finished in a
tragical manner. Ever since yesterday morning
this news was rumored-lhose who circulated il
referring TO an expires, arrived the night before
last from Queretaro, and TO respectable houses
of the city OF Mexico.
Gen. Bustamenic, in a well-iormed combina-
ton with his companions, Corsazar, Almonie
and Paroles, prepared a revolution with such Sc.
crecy and success that the blow was successfully
struck. Pena Pena, Rosa, Anaya, OSero, Pc
draza, and many Other Deputies and Senators,
have been obliged to hY and seek q hiding place.
AImonie, in conformity with his wishes, fills
the Presidency. The other three generals are al
the head Of 5000 men, aud the head OF the new
army is Bustamente. The new administrator
count upon three millions OF dollars, which have
been furnished by sundfy rich Mexican and TO-
reign merchants, who have also bound Them
selves 10 pay every month one million and a half
of dollars during The duration OF the war. The
Government also counts upon so 1000 muskets,
which have Tor some time been collected with
zeal and secrecy.
Finally, a commission preceded by an ex-
traordinary courier, has started to call back
Santa Anna. The nation RECEIVERS its life, cou-
rage, and conceiyes great hopes. War will be
carried everywhere.
These are the particulars Of the interesting
news reported and confirmed yesterday; we,
however, know positively that the whole IS ia
IRRIGATION
There is a ~factious band which, with the
~grossest eiIrontery, insert lies with the dress of
truth. This is the truth.
We, notwiths' anding, counsel the Supreme
Government to be on the alert. These rumors
are generally the precursors Of great misfor-
tunes. Vigilance must be the watchword oflhe
Government and Of every good Mexican.
THE report was evidently put in circulation
to produce the catastrophe which it p%retends
had occurred. In this way revolutions are
some times brought about in Mexico.l
