MENICO CITY, Sept. 29.-The flight of Gen. Reyes. who sailed from Vera Cruz yesterday for Havana and New

Tn a pub lished statement. Reyes said he had knowledge of such plot. Although much talk of the possibility of Reyes conniving at secret military opposi- ton to Madero is indulged in, such speculation is not taken seriously, as it is known Reyes following has now dwindled to a point where such a plan would be futile. Reyes depar- ture has greatly simplified the task of the officials to bring about peaceful election.
 Reyes said he had direct knowledge that such a plot existed His de- parture has greatly simplified mat ters in Mexico and will prove a great factor in bringing about a peaceful election.
