i'Fine new year." replied Madero. Then he made the following statement regarding Diaz' resignation.
 ''Diaz is gone from the backs of the Mexican people. thus relieving the heaviest burden that people ever bore.
 T shall go to Mexico City within six or eight days. I have sent Freder- leo Cargo. Pine Suarez and Manuel Ur- quidi to the capital to arrange for my coming.
 .I am no longer provisional presi- dent of Mexico but only citizen ready to aid in the reconstruction of my country. If the people want me to do so I shall run for the Pres idency at the next election which will be ordered by President Protempore De La Barra.'
 Up to the very last minute the Ma deroists expected some trick from the Diaz regime with the grizzled warrior in the presidential chair. News that he had actually retired was received, therefore, with tremendous joy.
 Madero will keep up his tnsurrecto , army for the present, and may keep 1t together permanently.
 Mexico. today, is absolutely under the control of the Maderoists.
 It is probable that it will be Fed eral troops and not insurgent forces which will march against the city of Saltillo and force the Legislature of Coahuilla state to install Senor Venus Piano Carranza as Governor.
 Carranza is the man selected by Madero for the post, and whom Diaz promised would be installed. When the Legislature carried out the terms of peace, Madero ordered Colonel Castro and 1,200 troops to Saltillo. Now that Diaz has retired. these orders will not be rescinded although it is expected Diaz' lieutenants in the Copula Legis- 1ature will recede from their earlier position.

The batting of Maple, at the short
field for the Corcoran Cadets, has i'm
proved wonderfully in the last few
games. In Saturdays contest he pulled
off the feature of the game, clouting the
ball for the circuit, with the bases full.
He also connected for a clean single,
which scored the runner from second.
In the earlier part of the season his hits
came few and far between, but now
that he has struck his stride, he may be
expected to connect for one or more bin
giles in every game he plays.
