San Francisco. May 22.-The Chronicles spe-

number OF prominent citizens on the alleged

g ated:
The expose will create intense excitement on
the peninsular. and in my opinion will result
In President Diaa demanding an explanation
from the State Department and probably de-
mand from tho Mexican Government that the
conspirators be punished.
MIR. Deloy also SAID that the exposure will re-
suit in serious damage to the interests of
Americans on the Peninsula. but that the
worst sufferers will be the English Ttockhold-
ers In the Mexican Land and Colonization
Company, and he thinks that the large
grant which the company now holds
declared forfeited. and the oompany's property
at Ensenada. Alama, and other places wifi be
confiscated. He also expressed an opinion that
as soon as the news reaches Ensenada the
companys officers will be arrested.
