D|Az LEAVES
MEXICO

MEXICO CITY, May 27-Porfirio
Diaz, to whom during thirty years all
Mexico has paid Difference, secretly
left the capital at o'clock yesterday
morning. Only a few friends whom
he trusted followed him to the sta
ton. He was bound for Vera Cruz to
take ship for Spain. In the distance
he could hear voices of enthusiastic
celebration acclaiming the new presi-
dent, Francisco Leon De La Barra,
and shouting "Viva Madero"
So carefully were the arrangements
made for his departure that the de-
night. Secrecy was due less to ap-
prehension of popular outburst here
than to the resire that he reach Vera
Cruz without the fact being known
to marauding bands along the route.
Private kilograms received this
morning report the arrival Of General
Diaz and family at Vera Cruz. Ac-
cording to these advices Diaz boarded
the Ypiranga Hamburg, an American
boat. The Ypiranga sails south to
Coatzacoalcos today and will return to
Vera Cruz and sail for Europe on
Wednesday.
General Diaz is still feeble from
his illness and was far from being
a well man when he left his home.
A more dreary leave-taking could
scarcely be imagined. Rain had fallen
earlier in the night and by time the
former president emerged from his
house the air was chilly. He was
closely muffled and to aid in the dis
guise borrowed automobile was used.
Diaz will live in Spain.
