REYES To Be
RECALLED.
{By United Press Leased Wire.)

tDy Unlteu ffeSS IeaSeu WIRE.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 49,.
Bernardo Reyes, practi-
cally banished from Mexico be-
cause his name was mentioned in
connection with the presidency a
little more than a year ago, is to
return to his own country. Re-
ports here, coming from relia BILE
sources, say that President Diaz
has summoned him back and has
decided to make him the under
study for the presidency.
President Diaz, according to re-
ports here, is on the verge of a
complete breakdown. His health
is shattered, the strenuous times
of the recent election, the anti
American riots in Mexico and 9th
er of this larger Mexican towns
and the revolutionary uprising
that is stili alive, having proved
too much of a strain for him to
withstand.
From an authoritative source
1t has been learned that Diaz has
admitted to one of the members
of the Mexican legation in Wash
ington> that he intends to make
Gen. Reyes hiss uccessor.
Reyes was popular with the
common people of Northern Next
co and it is believed that the rev.
olutionary movement now under
way has caused D!az to believe
that such man would be valu-
able to the government.
Reyes is now ON a government
mission to Europe and has been
recently in Paris. 1t is reported
today that he is on his way to
Mexico.
After he was suggested as vice
president, Diaz called Reyes to
Mexico City and commissioned
him to study thoroughly the mill
tary systems of Europe. 1t was
understood that the commission
was virtually a Punishment and
that Reyes was given to under
stand that he was to remain
abroad until he was asked to re-
turn.
Diaz' action in sending Reyes
away caused considerable i'll feel
ing in Northern Mexico 1t was
predicted that he would never be
allowed to return to his own
country. The action of the gov
eminent In asking him to come
back at this time is believed to
indicate that Diaz has relinquish-
ed the idea of making Corral his
successor and that Reyes may be
offered as a compromise as his
following among the common
people is very large.

LAST YEAR
From the most accurate figures
obtainable over ONE HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS was made by
real estate owners in growing cities
and towns of Western Carada last
year. This vast wealth was eNclu-

Original records gathered by the
Winnipeg Free Press prove that in
eight Western Canadian cities the
value of land alone-not counting
improv ements-increased 562 per
cent for the last five years-an an
nual increase of 112 per cent for
each city during the last five years.
These figures Indicate that invest
ments in live growing cities in
Western Canada are as safe and
sure as an investment can be. and
that 100 per cent profit each year
