DiAZ REVOLUTION is TAGGING
Leader Hopes for Ultimate Victory
BY Winning President Mad
eros Men ever.

Mexico City, Oct. 22.-After a whirl-
wind start in which Vera Cruz, the
moss important seaport of Mexico.
was captured, the Diaz revolution ap.
pears to be at standstill. Govern.
ment officials refuse to discuss the
revolt in any way.
A detachment of federals is camped
within ten miles of Vera Cruz, but it
is not believed they will attack. 1t is
the general opinion that Diaz will
have to take the initiative if there is
to be an engagement at Vera Cruz. as
President Madero apparently is salts
fed with keeping the revolution bot
tied up in that city. The American
cruiser Des Moines is now in the har-
Dor.
A detachment of the federal troops
stationed at Fort Uloa, on an island
in Vera Cruz harbor, has deserted to
the rebels. When the men left the
fort the gun5oat remaining loyal to
Madero fired upon them, but the fire
was not returned by the ships in the
hands of DiaZ. The rebel leader de-
clares he did not want his men to fire
on the federal ship, as he was con-
tident the crew would declare allegi-
ance to him within a short time.
1t is becoming more apparent daily
that the Diaz followers place most of
their hope of success in the ability of
the former presidents nephew to
draw Madero's army from him, and
both sides are watching this side of
the situation.

CITY is OF IMMENSE lMPOR.
TANcE IN DEFENSE OF
SuLTAN'S CAPITAL.
BOTH SIDE LOSE HEAVILY
Greeks and Montenesrins Claim Vic
tories-Naval Battle Not De-
cisive-Turkish Squadron
Is Off Varna.

Vienna, Oct. 22.-The capture by
the outer forts defending Adrianople
was reported in messages from Sofia.
They were not taken. the dispatches
say without desperate fight in
which both sides lost heavily.
If it is true that the Adrianople for
tifcations are beginning to fall before
the Bulgarian attack, the situation
looks serious for the Turks. The ear
lier capture of Mustapha Pasha,
which Bulgaria advertised as bril-
liant victory, was really of small i'm
portance, but Adrianople is differ
ent matter. The city is of immense
strategic Importance in the defense of
Constantinople and its loss would be
crushing blow to the sultan.
From the fact that 70 war CORE
spondents were allowed to leave Sofia
for the front, it was conjectured that
the Bulgarian army is now fully as
sembled and in position to meet the
enemy.
Allies Claim Victories.
1t is officially announced from Get
TIME that the Montenegro forces cap
tured the town of Pluva. The battle
lasted two days.
After a four hours engagement the
Greeks dislodged the Turks from the
strong positions which they had taken
in the defense of F,llassona, at the
foot of Mount Olympus, and occupied
the town, according to dispatch
from Athens. Crown Prince Constan-
tine was in personal command.
Eleven Greek warships are report
ed to be off the Island of Lemnos.
This island belongs to Turkey, and is
in the Grecian Archipelago, midway
between Mount Athes and the coast
of Asia Minor.
Fleet Is OF Varna.
The Turkish warships fired 100
rounds at Varna, but without effect,
says a Sofia dispatch.
Two Bulgarian torpedo boats then,
issued from the harbOr and engaged
the Turkish squadron, one ship of
which withdrew. 1t is believed she
was struck by a torpedo, but not in
jured seriously.
The Turkish feet proceeded to Malt
chik, 25 miles to the north, where they
INDUCED in another harmless bonn
bardment. They then returned to
Varna, but kept at a respectful dis
lance, apparently fearing mines.
At nightfall the Bulgarian torpedo
boats came out again, but no engage
ment was reported during the night,
and the Turkish squadron was still at
Varna Sunday, but did not open fire.

but the court would not allow their

it part of Jack Roses story through
testimony of Mr.. Jerome, the court
sustained all the objections of District
Attorney Whitman and the former dis
trict attorney could not get his story
in.
Next came Police Commissioner

Mercy Hospital, Chicago, Oct, 22.-
Despite his weakness and nervous
condition, Colonel Roosevelt left
the hospital at 1880 o'clock Monday
morning and an hour afterward was
on his way to Oyster Bay, n. Y,
aboard 24.hour train over the Penn
sylvania railroad.
4 consultation of his staff physi
clans Sunday night definitely decided
this move, although they were not
hesitant in saying he should have re-
NAMED at the hospital until Thurs
day at least.
1t became known Sunday night for
the first time since the shooting the
exact location of the bullet fired by
tchn Schrank in Milwaukee last Mon
day.
The bullet, it was found by a new
N-ray plate, Is lodged outside, instead
be removed at any time Colonel
Roosevelt desires.
This fact greatly encouraged the
doctors and, In interviews after the
consultation, they emphasized the
point that the colonel is in as good
condition as might be expected.
Doctor Murphy at the last minute
decided that the risk of Colonel Roose-
veit travelling to the railway sitting in
limousine, as had been planned,
was too great to be incurred, and he
ordered that Colonel Roosevelt be
transported in the hospitals electric
ambulance This lowered the liabil-
ity of injury to his wound through
crossing car tracks, the Chicago river
bridge and rough places in the
paving.
The route of the ambulance and
party from the hospital to the Union
station was:
From the Prairie avenue gate of the
hospital north to Sixteenth street,
west to Michigan avenue, north to
Jackson boulevard, west to Canal
street and north to the depot.
The party travelled slowly, one hour
being taken for the three-mile ride.
The patients in the hospital were
very much alive to the colonel's de.
parture and the Prairie avenue win
dows of the hospital were alive with
fluttering handkerchiefs.
Every precaution was taken at the
station to keep the crowds from jost-
ling the colonel. Fifty police
rien formed a phalanx around
the former president. The Roose-
Welt family and party had two cars
placed at their disposal. Dr. Scurry

But you will have to be more quiet

The colonel looked at them with a
twinkle in his eye.

The colonel will, after an enforced
rest at Oyster Bay, begin preparations
for his last speech of the campaign to
be delivered at Madison Square gar
