REVOLT IN MEXICO
FORTY ARE KILLED IN BATTLE
AGAINST DiAZ'S SOL
DIERS.
W0I7aN STAYS polio CHIEF
Pueblo, Seethlng With Rebellion, Is
Scene of the cIash-Francisco Ma
dero, Head of Revolutionary Party,
Claims the Presidency.

Mexico City, Mex. - Revolution
broke out Friday in the city of
Pueblo between the anti-re-electionist
and the federal forces and it is re-
ported that 40 persons were killed and
three wounded. The federal soldiers
have gotten the upper hand of the af-
fair.
A woman killed the chief of police
and another wounded major of in
fantry.
Many arrests Of supporters of Fran
cisco 1 Madero, the revolutionary
leader, are being made all over Mex
leo.
Eleven Mexicans were arrested at
Buena Vista and lodged in Jail at
Cananea charged with attempting to
foment revolution.
40 Orizaba numerous arrests were
made and the police captured large
quantity of arms and ammunition.
Details of the anti-Diaz conspiracy
have come to light. The conspirators
had extended their operations to the
state Of Vera Cruz, Hidalgo, Coahuila,
San Luis Potosi, Nuevo Leon. Pueblo,
Jalisco, Guanajuata, Yucatan and
Zacatecas. Circulars sent out by
Madero or his agents from San An
tonic, Tex, outline his campaign and
announce Madero as constitutional
president OF Mexico. The manifesto
reads:
II, Francisco l. Madero, will place
myself at the head of a revolutionary
party against the government of
Mexico. Between the Goth and both
of November l shall lead my followers
against the government of Mexico"
OF the men arrested here for com.
plicity IN the conspiracy one, Cosie
Robelo carried q commission from
Madero naming him as governor of
the state of Hidalgo.
No anti-American talk is being
heard now.
1T is true conspiracy against the
administration has been unearthed,
buk 1t is a mistake to suppose that
the participants, who have been ar
rested are of any Importance"
SO said one of the highest officials
of the government. The official.
whose name is withheld, continued:
The men under arrest are petty
agitators and indictments, who have
affiliated themselves with every group
which in the last year or so has or
ganized opposition to President Diaz's
administration. These men were first
Reyists, then Democrats, then anti-re-
electionists; more recently they have
been supporters of Francisco l. Ma
dero, who is suspected of supplying
them with money.
They are incapable and have no
prestige or any quality necessary to
successful leadership. The present
conspiracy had ramif1cations. The po-
lice seized arms and ammunition worth
perhaps $4,000 or $4,000 in this city,
at Pachuca and elsewhere"
Francisco Madero was candidate
against Diaz at the late presidential
election in Mexico. Madero was ar
rested then for a political offense"
and Jailed. He was released last
month on condition that he leave
Mexico. He hurried to Texas.

OFFERS MODESTO
LAND FOR PARKS
Capitalist Will Help Women to
Beautify the Stanislaus
County Seat
Especial Dispcteh 10 The Call

MODESTO, Feb. 10.-Thomas K.
Beard, capitalist and large land
owner of this city, has offered to do
nate to the Woman's Improvement club
for use as public parks land in this
city valued at between $4,000 and
$4,000. The land offered includes two
blocks in the southwestern part of the
city and a right of way for 100 foot
boulevard along the Tuolumne river
which bounds Modesto on the south for
a distance Of one and a half miles 10
connect with a - acre park on Dry
creek in the eastern part of the city.
The matter will come up at the next
meeting of the club and the acceptance
of the offer will give Modesto one Of
the best park systems in the state.
The only condition attached to
Boards offer is that the SUM of $4,000
be spent in improving the parks dur
ing the next three years. There is no
doubt about the acceptance of the offer.
Modesto already has two fine parks in
the northern portion of the city, an
area of 20 acres in all. These parks
were secured by the improvement club
several years ago and were laid out
under the direction of Superintendent
McLaren of Golden Gate park San
Francisco. They have been highly inn
proved and planted to trees and shrubs
= The addition of the parks offered by
Beard will give Modesto between 40
and IS acres of park
The Improvement club secures funds
for the parks by holding an annual
fiesta and street fair. Plans for this
years fiesta are now under way and
the women promise TO make it the best
yet Last year they cleared $500 and
they expect to do even better this year.
Another work carried on by the inn

SAN JOAQUIN CROP
OUTLOOK BRIGHT
Acreage of Wheat, Barley and
Oats Promises Good Yield
for Season
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

STOCKTON, Feb. 10.-Crop indica-
tions in San Joaquin county are ex-
cellent and with the necessary spring
rains the farmers anticipate one of the
best general yields in years.
The acreage planted is about the
same as last year, some of the farmers
figuring it as slightly in excess. Wheat.
barley and oats have been generously
planted. Bert Melone has returned from
a trip of inspection on Roberts island
and reports practically all the avail
able ground planted. The grain is just
showing above the ground. the cold
weather having held back the growth
somewhat. However, the roots have
taken better hold and will produce a
harder stock.
The crucial time is figured by grow
ers as between March Is and April 15.
Lack of precipitation then would dam
age the crops considerably
The local grain market is practically
dead Most of the stock is in the hands
Of the dealers and wealthy farmers
who purchased it at figures higher than
are now offered. The mills are the
principal purchasers, and their figures
in most instances do not satisfy the
holders of stock. The expectation of
barley has ceased and there has not
been any wheat exported for a long
time. Instead. wheat is being shipped
in from the north and other points
The Stockton potato market is rather
quiet at present. This is due, say the
dealers. to the difference in freight
rates and the shipments made into the
southern field by other localities. The
dealers declare that lower freight rates
permit competitors to ship into Texas,
New Mexico and Arizona under Stock
ton prices.
In this county the potatoes are dug
and planted at the same time. Tubers
are being planted now, while some of
the old crop still remains in the ground
New potatoes are expected in about
May The present crop is bringing 81
a sack for fancy stock.

HOLD BOTH STATE
AND FEDERAL JOBS
Deputy Attorney General De-
cides California Officers Can
Help With Census

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 10-Persons
holding state office may serve as federal
census supervisors, Notwithstanding the
section of the state constitution which
reads that persons holding lucrative
Offices under the United States or any
other power shall not be eligible to any
Office of profit in California. This is the
opinion received today by State Con-
troller A. B. Nye from Deputy Attorney
General Raymond Benjamin.
The opinion was sought by the con-
troller in the instance of Emmett Phil
lips of this city and Lyman King of
Redlands, who are associated with state
Offices and at the same time are serving
as census supervisors Phillips is q
member of the board of manage Of
the Napa state hospital, for which he
receives SO a meeting and King gets
sS40 year for his services as treasurer
of the Southern California state hos
pital. Both men are also editors.
A census supervisor is not a federal
officer, merely a clerk employed for
that purpose alone, and soon a the
task is completed the position ter
inmates, holds the opinion.
