Mexico City-Documents found in
the house of a revolutionary are said
to have revealed a conspiracy for the
wholesale assassination of prominent
government officers including Vice
President Corral, Foreign Minister
Creel and other prominent Mexicans,
among them Editor Spindola, owner
of Ell Impartial. Miguel S. Macedo,
subsecretary of the government, was
also listed for death. President Diaz
was to be captured but his life spared
because Of his past services to the
country The bodies of those killed
were to be suspended from electric
light wires in the streets. The build
ing of Ell Imparcial was to have been
destroyed by dynamite.
The papers exposing the conspir-
acy were discovered during a raid by
the police on Sunday. Three employees
of Ell impartial had been furnished
with the explosive and were instruct
ed to use it at the first report of the
uprising, which was planned for last
Sunday. The seizure of the plans on
the day on which they were to be ex-
ecuted is thought to have great eff
feet in heading off the rebellion.
