sibie.

Maderos acts since his influence be-

cial approval at Washington.
Madero's Own Views.
The inaugural ceremonies tomorrow
will be extremely simple, in accordance
with Madero's request. Speaking to-day
to the Tribune correspondent he mem
toned that it was less than year since
the revolution started, and said:
II do not think 1t possible to find a
parallel anywhere in history of a revo-
luton involving such important and far
reaching effects as the one just ended In
Mexico, accomplished with less public
disturbance, loss of life. interruption to
business or damage to public or private
property. My first task will be TO com
plete the pacification Of the country.
This will not be difficult, as it means
principally onvincing certain bands Of
disturbers that the revolution and the
new administration stand for law and
order
There may be doubt at present on TINS
point among some of those who are not
keeping the peace, but we shall endeavor
10 remove it speedily. l am willing 10
work hard to make the administration
success. 1t will be a success, l am sure
Of that, but the Mexican people, as
have been telling them In my speeches.
viii have TO help. They must do their
share I cannot do it all alone, but with
the peoples aid everything desirable Is
possible for Mexico. l have confidence
in the citizenry and in their desire Tor
an honest government and for the preVa-
lence Of order"
