Arreai to Diaz.
Fearful that the revolutionary
spirit will spread to other cities
and states and authorities have ap-
pealed to President Diaz to hold
troops in readiness for immediate at
lacks upon rioters
This plea to the much-hated presi-
dent, however, is not necessary, as
he will stop at nothing to quell up
risings of the people against mis- al
keged misrule.
That President Diaz is equally de-
terrnined on the subject of protect
ing American lives and interests is
also assured for the last thing he
would desire would be a contest
with the United States. His atti-
tude en- this subject has been clear
]y shown by the messages given the
government by Ambassador La Gar
ra, at Washington.
