HAD PLANNED
BIGWELCOME
FOR MADERO
(By United Press Leased wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
MEXICO CITY, June 7.-Thir-
ty-four years, six months and
eight days after the "insurrecto"
general, Porfirio Diaz, marched
into Mexico City at the head of
his victorious army, Francisco I.
Madero, jr.. the successful revo-
lutionary chieftain had planned
his triumphal entry of the capital
as the new "liberator," ready to
try his hand at government after
the failure of the "old gray eagle
Iof Oaxaca" to make a genuine
democracy of the Mexican nation.
Coming not at the head of an
army and having only a small es-
|cort of guards under Brigadier
General Garibaldi, nephew of the
great Italian liberator, Madero's
proposed entry into the capital to-
day was to be in contrast with
that of Diaz almost 35 years ago.
1t is estimated that fully 300,-
900 persons would line the magnf-
ficent Avenida Juarez. As Made
ro's carriage proceeded along the
avenfda there was to be con-
stant rain of flowers In his path
and into his carriage. tossed alike
by society women, Indians and
poems.
After the ceremonies, Madero
and his wife were to go to the
home of his father on Berlin
street, where he was to remain in
definitely.
Then came the earthquake and
threw all plans into CONFUSION.

NEW lOftN, Juno lilo
cable department Of the Western

has just received a report that
from 80 to 10 persons were killed
in an earthquake In Mexico City
this morning. The shock oc-
cured about 4 am.
MEXICO CITY, June 7.-Thou-
sands of persons who had flocked
here to participate in the mon
ster welcome to Madero, were
thrown into a panic this morning,
when a severe earthquake rocked
the city. Ten soldiers are report
ed to have been crushed to death
in the barracks, and almost every.
prisoner in Belem Jail was in-
jured.
The earthquake necessitated q
change in plans for the triumphal
entry OF Madero.
1t Is feared the damage In the
city, however, has been heavy,
and that great loss OF life oc-
Cured in the district Just south
and west of the capital.
No Details Yet.
Wires south and west OF Mexico
City are down and no details have
yet been received.
The heaviest shock occurred
Just before daylight. Wires were
prostrated, and the city lighting
plant put out OF commission.
In the confusion of the dark
ness OF the early morning hours,
the terrified populace-men,
women and children - rushed
frantically into the streets.
Every hotel and lodging house
in the city was crowded with
guests waiting today's celebra-
tion. Scantily attired they rush
ed to the streets.
Roof Falls In.
The garrison at the barracks
was caught under collapsing
roof. At Belem prison one Of the
heavy walls fell inward, crashing
into the juryroom and the main
corridor of the jail, where the
prisoners were confined.
Inhabitants rushed to the street,
terrified. Many children and
women took refuge in the church,
es. According to meager advices,
the quake was felt far south OF
the City of Mexico. II ID feared
the damage sustained in outlying
territory was appalling.
Wire communication between
Eel Paso and Mexico City has
been partially prostrated and is
uncertain. There has been no
communication with points south
of the capital. Wild rumors of
damage are being circulated here.
1t is believed 1t may be some time
before the exact situation is
known.

The apple is the aristocrat of

Apple orchards are better nur-

produce, with good roads, you
could go to the next one, and not
only that, but time could be saved
in the size OF the load to be hauled
and you could reach towns of great

you reach the nearby towns now.
| am sorry that the bill was mis-
