Francisco /. Madero for the presi-
dency. this evening sailed for Vera
cruz on the Ward liner, Monterey,
for Havana Just before the ship
weighed anchor, he told newspaper
man that he would continue to New
York, although his passage booked
in the name of GeneTao Reyes IS to
the Cuban capital. From the port
city he sent a message to President
DE Labarra saying that he did not
care to remain in the country and
become a cause of trouble, and, be-
coming his duty as a retired army
officer, he would in due time advise
him as to his residence.
To Jose Peon DeNalle, the chair
man of the committee on the Reyesta
party, he sent the following message;
Il am leaving the republic to es-
cape trouble. The party whose chief
] am, must maintain its attitude of
insisting upon the airing of their
troubles, and exercising its rights in
the knowledge that in due time | shall
return to take place at its head, pro-
tected always with the banner Of
law"
Accompanying General Reyes re-
tnue was one of his most ardent sup
porters. David Reyestina, his wife and
children, and Miguel Quierrado,
another adherent.
1t was said the fact that the general
had decided to leave his country was
made known at the capital by tele-
grams. SO carefully had he planned
his departure that it appears some
what like a flight The trip to NeTa
Cruz was made in a private car last
night, and on account of his nt
not being on the passenger list, the
true identity of General Reyes was
not discovered until late in the after
noon.
His son, Rodolfo Reyes. denies
that his going was any secret from
him, or other members Of his family,
and Peon DeValle declares he was
fully aware of his chiefs intentions.
The skeptical. however, regard it as
odd that message telling him why
he was going should have been sent
i'm from Vera Cruz.
The general was taking a nap on
board the vessel when he was found
this afternoon by a newspaper man.
Briefly he explained why he was
leaving
DO you expetc to stop in Havana,
general?" he was asked.
No, l am going on to New York
Yes, | expect to return, but | cannot
say when"
Further explanation of his depart
ure he would not give, except to show
copies of the messages he had sent
to the capital.
In Vera Cruz the same desire for

privacy was manifest in the move
ments of General Reyes. Holding a
handkerchief before his face. he went
on board early. and almost imme-
diately went to his state-room. The

town awoke to the fact that she car

Remembering that General Diaz
sailed not many months ago on the

supposed tonight to have been wrong

tai Many claim the Reyestas are
jubilant that they are away.
They refer to the incidents that re-
suited in his being sent by the presi-
dent to Europe on special mission
which kept him abroad for almost
two years.
There are others who do not hest

will attempt to return at the head of

ny such assertions.
Peon DeNalle appearing to be en-
tirely familiar with the generals in
