CRY OF MEXICO, Oct. 1S.-Igna tzo L.
Vallarta, chief justice of the supreme court
and until the recent constitutional amend
ment was proclaimed vice president of the
republic, sent in his resignation to con-
gress last night. He says his political re-
lations interfere with his judicial duties.
His term was within five months of ex-
piration. The vacancy will be filed by a
national election. Vallarta has been a
member of congress, governor of Jalisco,
minister of interior under Juarez, and min
lister of foreign affairs under Diaz.
A resolution was reported favorably in
congress making the federal district a
state to be called the state of the valley
of Mexico.
