'PAHIs May Z. 1911"
The ringing Of the cathedral hell ana
church bells throughout the city and the
firing of cannon followed the proceedings
in the chamber The crowds IN the
streets almost went wild over the signal
announcement of the triumph Of the rev o.
luton.
All the Federal troops in Mexico city
have been placed under the control OF
Maderos personal representative. Don
Alfredo Robles Dominguez Without his
sanction the troops in garrison can make
no move. Dominguez has military con-
troll Of the Federal district tonight Only
few DAYS ago he was in command OF a
small body Of rebels hungry and poorly
clothed, though we'll armed. who were
camped few miles from the city.
He said tonight that he could bring
5000 organized ins,irrectos into the city
within three hours. Their baggage and
horses are already on board trains. I'm
less they should he needed in Mexico.
however, the former insurrectos viii re-
main where they are for while. Domin-
guez and the Government troops will
probably be able to handle the situation.
which tonight ia a complete reversal OF
last nights outlook. when state OF
anarchy seemed threatening.
The appointment Of Dominguez came
after a conference between him and
Francisco De la Barra this afternoon
Immediately after his appointment Do
ming,Iez went into the streets accom-
panied Ivy his stan. He issued mani
festo appealing to the people to refrain
from disorder and not 10 gather in crowds.
With his staff he rod. from one group Of
boisterous shouters to another and was
cheered everywhere. He and his men
wore the insurrecto tricolor, notwith-
standing that they are now serving the
Government Of Mexico.
The resignation of all the members of
the Cabinet followed immediately upon
the proceedings in the Chamber OF Depu-
ties Provisional President elect De la
Barra issued an open letter to the Mexi-
can people tonight in which he declared
ne would not be a candidate for either
President or Vice-President at the gen.
eral election. The letter said:
Though there has not yet been ap-
proved by the respective State Legisla-
lures the constitutional reform relating
TO no reelection ! consider it my duty
to declare as a guarantee of my purpose
that under no circumstances will | be
a candidate for President or Vice Presl-
dent in the coming election
The happiest day of my public career
will be that on which in the shortest time
allowed by the electoral law and the siiua-
ton prev ailing in the country l can trans
fer the Office have to-day received to the
citizen whom the public elects to it"
One paragraph of De la Barra = open
letter is as follows:
The Mexican Government. respectful
of the lights of other nations and zealously
defending her own. will spare no effort
by means of its open and fair policy. IA il
has done in the past. in order that these
relations may become more friendly
every day with mutual advantages and
in accordance with the principles Of inter-
national law"
Grave fears are entertained that seri-
Gus disorders have broken out in the
vicinity Of Vera Cruz Communication
from here 70 the United States by wire
is impossible except by way OF Laredo
Early this evening the land wires between
here and Vera Cruz were ou' Of commits
sion and evidently had been cut.
Former President Diaz remained in
the most rigid seclusion to-day. II il
said that he is a very sick man, but thai
week he will be able 10 leave his palace
and depart from Mexico forever. The
rumor is strong here tonight that the
former President and his family will g
to France inside Of ten days
The resignation came after a day OF
1890 O'Clock p. NJ, in an effort to subdut
the anti-Diaz rioters. fired on q crowd
gathered near the Depart ment Of Foreign
Relations. The volley resulted in the
death Of ono man.
Alfredo Robles Dominguez, persona
Representative Oh IINucl6CO uo0CI u

to-day by Minister de la Barra to this
effect that the designations of ths Presi

rnasses in front of the National Palace
Many times policemen on horseback haI

the mob. The crowds had begun e
