DIAz HAS GONE.
DepOsed President of Mexico
Leaves Capital Secretly.
Boards a Train Late at Night
for Vera Cruz.
BOUND FOR EUROPE,
Probably Will Make His Future
Home in Madrid.
Title Has Been Conferred on
Him by King Alfonso.

Mexico City, May 27.-Private tele-

arrival of General Diaz at Vera Cruz
at o'clock yesterday afternoon.
boarded the Ypiranga, a Hamburg
American boat. The Ypiranga is due
to sail south to Coatzacoalcos. She
will return to Vera Cruz and sail for
Europe Wednesday.
Railroad reports received say the
pilot train was stopped by insurrec-
tos below Jalapa, but after learning
that it was serving as a pilot to the
Diaz train it was permitted to pro-
ceed. None of the three trains suf-
fered other delays.
Porfirio Diaz, to whom during 80
years all Mexico has paid Difference,
secretly left the capital at o'clock
Friday morning. Only n few friends
whom he trusted followed him to the
station.
In the distance he could hear the
voices of enthusiastic celebrants who
Francisco Leon De La Barra, and
shouting Viva Madero."
General Diaz was still feeble from
his illness and far from being a well
man when he left his home.
A more dreary leave taking could
scarcely be imagined. Rain had fallen
earlier in the night and by the time
the former president emerged from his
house the air was chilly. He was
closely muff1ed and to aid in the dis
used. The route to the San Lazaro
station had been mapped out over un-
frequented streets.
By Encouragement at the last
moment, police were scattered along
the line. At certain points the close
friends of the former chief executive,
including those who are to accompany
him across the Atlantic, fell in behind
his limousine.
Three trains were used, the first act
ing as a pilot. The Diaz special fol-
lowed and some time later a third
train, occupied by a detachmen of the
cars of the special were occupied as
follows:
First car-General and Mrs. Diaz.
Mrs. Romero Rubion De Teresa, Col.
Por6lso Biaz. q SON; Lieutenant Lo-
renzo Elizaga and their families
Second car-General Fernando
Gonzales, Manuel Gonzales. Colonel
Santa Cruz, Major Espinosa Rondero.
Third car-Francisco S. Garcia,
Ignacio De La Garita, and kitchen
crew.
The trains ran without orders. to
prevent rebels along the line picking
up news from the wires.
General Diaz undoubtedly will make
his home in, Spain, probably at Madrid
During the recent centennial King
Alfonso conferred title upon him
and made him an honorary general of
the Spanish army. Sonora Diaz was
made lady in waiting to the Spanish
queen. General Diaz speaks only
Spanish, and outside of Mexico he
would find the most congeniaI sur
roundings in Spain.

French army are under orders from

Of Kansas.
WHERE TOPUT ASYLUM
Board Of Control Also Pays Visit
to SpearVille.
Section of Kansas Upon Which
Nature Smiles.

Larned, May 27.-The I.arned
Boosters took the Kansas state board
or control to a high hill overlooking
the Arkansas and Pawnee valleys and
showed the members the kingdoms of
wheat and the principalities of alfalfa.
For twenty miles the lowlands
stretched away in green vistas to the
skyline. 1t was land of milk and
honey. Nowhere in the world can a
more prosperous farming country be
seen, nor more beautiful view to the
eye of the farmer. The Larned
Boosters merely wanted the board to
see the wonders of their valleys so they
would be better able to listen to the
arguments presented at the BANQUET
later in the day in favor of L.arned
Tor the new state hospital.
Larned is one of the most remark
able towns in the United States. If
excels in wheat and automobiles and
prosperity. The endless sweep of the
prairie is broken here by the two val
ieys- The hills give strength to the
toilers on the plains.
But little conversation was held be-
tween the board members on the trim

passed by alfalfa fields in full bloom.
The air is different out here. The
board did NOT decide to give the new
state institution to Larned. but the
board was agreed that a better locs-
tion could not be found anywhere IN
fact, the board has been shown So
many fine locations in its Journey

club was not the only champion Spear

from southwest Kansas sent endorse
ments for Spearville.
AT Scott City, the center of tho Kan
sas irrigation country, the board had
another reception worth while and was
impressed by the showing of the Scott
county metropolis. There the expert

CoAHU1LA COMES TO TIME.
Elects as Governor the Man of Ma
derO'S Choice.

Juarez, May 27.-Francisco 1. Madero,
jr., today received long message from
President De La Barra urging him to
come to Mexico City as soon as possi-
Bile. He inquired also if DIR. Vasquez
Gomez already is en- route to Mexico
City. President De La Barra also
stated that he had wired Governor
Vale of Coahuila, suggesting that he
request the legislature of the state of
Coahuila to proceed Immediately to
elect Venustiano Carranza as pro-
visional governor. Senior Madero earlier
today had been advised that the legis-
lature of Coahuila still refused to name
Carranza, suggesting Oscar Cara, and
declaring that ENJOYS would be sent to
Juarez to discuss the matter if Senor
Ma6ero desired. The latter replied that
Carranza was his choice and demanded
that he be named forthwith lest an ad-
vance on the town of Saitillo, the state
capital, be ordered.
At 10 a. m. a message was received
from the secretary of the legislature of
Coahuila at Saltillo stating that this
body was disposed to name Carranza
and begging that no attack on the town
be made, and a few minutes later the
Following notification was received
from the legislature:
Legislature has just named as gov
ernor of the state of Coahuila, Venus
tiano Carranza who has already been
notified We beg of you to give orders
Immediately suspending the attack on
this place and ordering for the sake of
convenience and good order the peace
full entrance of the insurrectos. A spe-
cial committee has been appointed to
see your chiefs to transmit your orders
and tell them of the naming of Car
ranza.''
Senior Madero was visibly pleased at
the action of the Coahuila legislature
declaring it an index of the course of
legislatures in other states.
I'VE do not want to have many gov
ernors named but those who are con-
spicuously the popular choice, which
Carranza certainly has been and isl
Senior Madero who has hesitated to an
nounce the date of his departure from
here pending the action of the legis-
latures of Chihuahua, Sinaloa, Zacate-
cas- and Sonora, now anticipates no
trouble and believes all the Maderist
suggested as governors will be nam ed
without further negotiation Upon
learning that Senior Madero thought the
date suggested in the Mexican congress
for the general elections was too re-
mote Alfredo Robles Dominguez. spe-
cfal representative of Madero at Mexico
City, today wired his chief here sug-
gestfng September "a for the primary
elections, October 8 for election day and
November or as the date for the
new president to take office. Madero
telegraphed his acceptance

Origin Unknown.
The fire, coming at this time, on the
eve of the first great summer holiday,
assumes greater financial importance
to the management than at almost any
other time during the season. Practi-
cally all of the concessions opened their
doors last Saturday and, beginning to-
day, they counted on practically four
da.-S of large crowds.
The cause of the fire will probably
never be determined. In the Hell
Gate" scenic railway workmen With tar

how had it's origin from the hot tar.
William H. Reynolds. a former state
senator, was the principal owner of
Dreamland. When notified of the fire
he said

seven years and have been doing our

Coney Island has been swept more
or less by fires ever since it became a
great popular amusement place. The
most disastrous blaze was one which
started IN the Gave of the Winds in
Steeple Chase park, July %, 1907. This
fire swept some 35 acres and caused a
loss of $1,500, ,000 Today's fire swept
over an area approximately a quarter
of a mile square.
The Burned Area.
There were several narrow escapes
among employees and performers who
were in their beds when the fire start
ed. but all were accounted for this
morning, except a property man con-
nected with Ferrari's animal show.
The burned area extends from Third
to Tenth street and from Surf ave-
nue. to the sea, and equals about eight
city blocks The management of
Dreamland places its loss at $2,00O,-
900 and that on the other buildings
about $1,0O0,0O0 more The animals
burned TO death were valued at fully
100000. The Balmer baths were de-
stroyed. Twenty-four individual shows
were burned, besides number of res
taurants and smaller enterprises.
The only animals saved from Fer
rari's. formerly Bostock's, show were
two lions, a leopard, two llamas, two
monkeys and six ponies. The others,
including six lions, "a monkeys, eight
leopards, baby elephant, ponies, bear
cubs and llamas, were SO terrified by
the flames that they refused to let
their keepers drive them into fifteen
wheeled cages kept on hand for shift
ing them.
In addition to BLACK Prince" the
lion that died pierced by a hundred
bullets, leopard and a baboon es-
capped from their cages and ran among
the crowd. Policemen shot them both
before they had injured any one.
