The expectation is that Madero will be

To Use Rebel Forces as Police.

ton was 10 bring the rebel forces under

concern Of the responsible elements
among Mexican citizens and have done
more than anv other occurrences of the
revolution 10 bring th~m TO a realiza-
tion OF the grave straits into which the
country is drifting. The evident ten

not unlikely 10 organize formidable
opposition. Reyes seems 10 be the best
man for the head Of the army that the
country offers. particularly in view OF
the sharp work that must be done by the
national forces before complete tran
quillity is restored.
