WASHINGTON, July 4-The revolution
which is reported as having broken out in
Uruguay is the sequel to the controversy
which arose over the succession of Cuestas
to the presidency following the murder Of
President Borda last August. Under the
Constitution Cuestas, who was then presi-
dent of the Senate, it seems, was the right
full successor. but he took the presidency
President Herrera, who was a leader of a
strong following in the chambers. Cuestas
Immediately declared himself provisory die
tator until order should be re-established
and then exiled Herrera, who went to
Buenos Ayres, where he is supposed to be
now. The present revolution is attributed
here to a conspiracy of which the former
President is the father. Followers of the
political situation in Uruguay are inclined
to believe the present trouble will not prove
serious and it will be passed without en-
dangering the present administration or the
republic.
