Madero's Silence Mystifies Many.

This is the opinion of Texans who

of correspondence has come in dur

Chihuahua and Torreon, from business
men, lawyers, doctors and quasi-news-

that the government is in control ex.

The fact that the insurrecto lead

superstition. If he fails to do so, the

will be gradually exterminated.
