MILD POLICY IS
ADOPTED BY CHIEFS
Of MEXICAN NATION

The reported execution OF thirty-eight
rebels at Saltillo. Mexico. Is denied on
authority of the state department. That
official attention has been directed TO

Nadero administration feels the danger
of acquiring a reputation for dealing
ruthlessly with enemies OF the existing
administration. II Is now quite gener-
ally understood that Gen. Felix Diaz

inert. The attitude Of the Madero go"-
eminent appears to be to administer
relatively mild punishment to political
and military offenders.
There has been severe fighting be-
tween federal and rebel forces near
'uernavaca, and according to govern
ment reports. the rebels were dispersed
