Million Witness Ceremonial to Victor

Rome.-Nearly one million persons
witnessed the dedication of a magni-

Interest was added to the occasion

stitution which still rules United
Italy
The monument, which is the most
colossal structure of the kind in the

years work
King Victor Emmanuel and Queen
Helena, the Queen Mother Margher-
ita, who appeared for the first time
in an official function since the death
of King Humbert, Dowager Queen
Maria Pia of Portugal and many other
members of the royal house were
present.
Not only the residents of Rome but

DlAZ LEAVES HAVANA
FOR HIS EUROPEAN HOME
Enthusiastic Demonstration Accorded
Former Mexican Chief by Cuban
PopuIace as He Sails.

Havana.-From the time former
President Diaz came into the harbor:
until his ship, the Ypiranga, carried
him past Moro castle on the final lap
of his exile to Europe, Havana did all
it could to make him forget that ne is
not still the honored president OF
neighboring republic. When the steam
ship left it's anchorage, Diaz and MS
wife stood on the captains bridge and
received farewells from hundreds or
Cubans and loyal Mexicans crowding
the small craft below.
The exiled president refused to be
interviewed, but permitted his son.
Col. Porfirio Diaz, Jr., to speak Tor
him Colonel Diaz said:
My father is deeply sensible of the
wisdom Of the restraint shown by
President Taft in the attitude OF the
United States toward Mexico during
the recent crisis. He believes in the
true friendship demonstrated thereby
and all Mexicans appreciate it and
have a deep sense of gratitude.
Colonel Diaz made direct charge
that Madero's revolution was framed
by foreign capital, naming certain
American and English corporations
He said:
How can this Madero claim to be
a patriot heading a patriotic move
ment when foreign capitalists, seeking
private gain, give him money to fight
with?
1T is plain to see that certain
holders of bonds of the Mexican Ma
tional railway hoped by the revolution
to prevent the redemption of these
bonds, and then the railways would re-
vert to them. Madero sold himself
to foreign capital"
Colonel Diaz thus characterized the
Madero party government:
1T is like a dog that has found a
bone. In this case the bone, worth
$50, 100000 is the treasury. Lots OF
other dogs follow him and hope to get
possession of the bone soon. They
will fight and the strongest dog will
carry off the bone. Madero is not the
strongest dog"

fearful that the runaway would re-
suit in the stage with its entire load,
going over a steep bank, he turned the
horses into the inner bank.
The runaway was stopped, but the
