Wholesale Assassination.
ALL OFFICIALS MARKED
Revolt Spreads over the Whole Re.
public and Diaz Government Is Face

for the Wholesale assassination of
prominent government officers. includ.
ing Foreign Minister Creel. Vice Pres.
ident Corral and other prominent Mex
leans. among them Editor Splndola,
owner Of FL impartial.
Miguel 5. Macedo. sub-secretary OF
the government, was also listed for
death. President Diaz was to be TAX
en-, 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 building of FL I'm
parcial was TO have been destroyed
with dynamite.
The papers exposing the conspiracy
were discovered during raid by the
police on Sunday. Three employees OF
FL impartial had been furnished with
the explosive and were instructed TO
use II at the first report of the upris-
ing, which was planned for last Sun
day.
The seizure of the plans on the day
upon which they were to be executed

In heading OFF the rebellion.

is now face to face with a serious rev.
dictionary movement Francisco Ma
dero, reputed leader of the rebels. Is

hula.
Three bodies of revolutionists at.
tackled the military barracks at ORR
Eaba and liberated and armed the pris.
oners from the adjoining prison.
The attack was well planned and ex.
ecuted. The revolutlonists, who mum.
bered 800. divided their forces.
A group OF 100 stationed on the
summit of a nearby hill threw dyna-
mite bombs into the barracks. When
the soldiers fled from their quarters
and charged their assailants the other
party of 200 revolutionists attacked
the prison. Beating down the guards
and forcing an entrance they liberated
all OF the prisoners and then armed
them.
The Fifteenth Mexican infantry then
charged the revolutionists and drove
them back into the woods after hot
fight. The number OF casualties can
not be learned.

the Nihilists.
When the famous General Trepoff

able assistant.

the nIhilists. and he was very anxious
10 obtain inside information MS 10 their
doings and plans. suddenly one day
IN 1878 he was fired AT while driving
through the streets Of ST. Petersburg
by no other than Vera Sassulltch. She
was at once seized by the soldiery and
was charged with the attempted MUIR
der OF Trepoff. being tried In the ordi-
nary manner: but. to the Amusement
OF the public. she was acquitted.
On her release the nlhillsts gathered
about her. desiring to admit such a
friend Of the people to their closest ac-
quaintance. In this way she was ad-
mitted TO all their private circles and
was made acquainted with their Sc
crets. These she at once communi-
Gated to the Russian government. The
truth was that the whole business. In
Guiding the attempt on his life. was
faxed by Trepoff himself. and II was
simply a clever ruse to get from the
nihillsts what could not be got In any
other way. Thereafter Vera Sassu.
Itch played the part OF government
