TO CRUSH
OUT DIAZ

Mexico City, Oct 1S.-A trainload Of
troops from the state Of Morelos reach
ed the capital last night and will re-
inforce Gen. Beltran in the campaign
against Diaz The day before the fall
Of Vera Cruz the legislature Of the
state Of Morelos formally protested to
the central government against the
weakness Of the federal forces in that
state and requested relnforcements in
view Of the increased zapatista bands
operating there
The government, however, has de-
termined to throw all its power against
Diaz, even if it sheald become neces-
sary to ignore for the present its war
with the zapatistas, the factions under
other revolutionary leaders and the
rowing bands OF rebels who are operat-
ing in many regions independently.
Gen. Diaz is said to be gaining
strength in the coast country and it is
believed he will make an effort to oc-
cupy the port Of Tampico, although
early adyices do not indicate a formal
movement towards the interior.
President Madero and his ministers
persist in minimizing the Importance Of
the revolt, and express the opinion
that Gen. Diaz never will get out Of
the state OF Vera Cruz.
Numerous arrests have been made
Of men OF minor Importance. who are
believed to be implicated in the plot
There is some uneasiness and fear of
trouble in the capital: the soldiers are
in barracks ready for duty but there
has been no sign Of disorder or a ris-
ing.
The Diaz control appears to be cen
tral in the town OF Vera Cruz and the
adjacent territory around Jalapa and
Cordoba, 0rizaba is still unf the
control Of the government An traffic
to Vera Cruz has been suspended and a
rigid censorship is being exercised
over an government wires.
The government insists that it can
prevail upon the gunboats to lend It
support The war department is also
Of the opinion that there viii be no

Roosevelt Delegates Resolve That Nothing Less Than 54(
Legal Delegates Can Be Regarded Binding
Majority Of Convention Designed to Pre-
vent Bolt Illinois Man Declares.

Chicago. June 1S.-The Roosevelt
delegates in caucus early this morning
voted that II was the sense of the
meeting that nothing less than 540
uncontested delegates could be re-
garded as binding majority of the
republican convention.
This was construed by the delegates
present as meaning. as one Of them put
it, "a bolt at the go-off."
The resolution In full, which was
unanimously supported by delegates
from nearly every state which was
carried by Roosevelt, follows:
Resolved. That no election of tenn
porary or other officers OF the con-
vention. or resolution or other pro-
ceeding shall be taken as the act OF
this convention or have any effect un-
less 1t shall receive on roll cali the
affirmative vote of $40 delegates whose
seats are uncontes.ed and this rcso-
luton shall govern and be In force

manent organization thereof shall have
been effected"

the right to make that appeal. This
threat Will not be carried out unless
you at least tacitly consent to II, be-
cause the majority Of the national COM

Most of the contested cases are then
outlined to the president. especial
stress being laid upon those from
Texas, Washington and California.
The telegram concludes:
These are but samples. We are
willing to submit these cases to any
court, to any arbitration board. to the
1000 uncontested delegates, or to any
tribunal except the beneficiaries OF the

Chicago, June 17.--At a mass meet
ing of uncontested Roosevelt dele
gates called after II o'clock tonight a
thousand word protest was wired to
President Taft against "the announced
intention OF Victor Rosewater. chair
man Of the national committee, to al
low the contested delegates to vote on
their own case"
The meeting was attended by all who
could be drummed together at the late
hour and all were invited to sign the
document
Mr. Taft Ii requested to use the
weight OF his influence In this crisis to
prevent such action by MIR. Rosewater.
1t Is asserted by the protestants that
there are about rs delegates who are
generally regarded as not honestly en-
titled to vote In the convention. II
is urged as contrary to Justice and to
parliamentary law that these contested
delegates vote on their own cases.
"They will In effect so vote" says
the protest, III, they vote on the tenn.
porary organization Of the conven
tion."
The protest proceeds: "A nornina

Chicago, June 17.-While they as
serted that Colonel Roosevelt would
control the republican national con-
ventlon and be nominated on the first
ballot. the Roosevelt leaders spent
today working out details of their plan
OF attack on the Taft program as out
lined last night.
There was no talk of stampede
among the Taft forces today. The
presidents adherents said positively
that their control OF the convention.
through the delegates seated by the
national committee. could not be
menaced by the strategy of the Roose-
welt managers.
Moderation was counselled in. the
two warning camps throughout the
day. and this had Its effect. There
were occasional charges of "theft" and
fraud" from the Roosevelt forces Off
set by charges OF "bribery" and Cor

day had been one OF the quietest pre-

night the Taft leaders were continuing

Uncertainty.
Uncertainty as to the result of the
convention was as prevalent tonight
as at any time since the republican
forces began their invasion of Chi
cago The final claims and figures
put out--each side claiming clear
ma}ority-were those of hope rather
than Of conviction.
The element among the Roosevelt
supporters who counselled moderation
among their associates had the sat
isfaction of apparently defeating the
plan to force motion for the nomina-
ton Of Roosevelt the moment Acting
Chairman Rosewater should refuse to
entertain the proposition of submitting
to the convention Roosevelt list OF
delegates for the list reported by the
national committee.
Although Colonel Roosevelt In his
speech at the Auditorium came as
close to suggesting possible bolt as
at any time in his campaign, Il has

welt leaders to fight to the enc
