 There are other pledges which were made in the name of Maderc, not comprehended in the "plan of San Luis," which are not only difficult of confirmation, but almost impossible. The promises made the Yaquis is a,case in point. They were told that in event of the success of the revolution they would be returned to possession of the entire Yaqui delta. New that itis not given them the discontented are raising trouble. Yet the pledge made them in the name of Madero cannot be carried out without complications with the American and British governments, whose citizens and subjects have there large holdings and a great canal, 7, which cannot be touched, even should all the Yaqui tribe de. manded it.
 From the very beginning of the Madero administration there has been in revolt one of his most daring and successful lieutenants in the day of the revolution. When peace was declared he refused to disba nd his force, and has made war on the Madero government ever since. Despite all efforts made so far to eliminate him he has made headway, and his fol lowers are in force now in several states in the interior. From his name Zapata they are called Zapa tistas; and now wherever the standard of revolt is raised tho name is used and as a rallying cry. And, moreover the men who are Zapatistas now were Maderistas a year ago. They are not Reyis'as
 nor is the new revolt counter revolution in the interest of Diaz
