ABILITY QUESTIONED

Mexico City. February 7-"For no req son will I change any of my ministers. The members of my cabinet are honor able men. They are patriots. I shall not permit any of them to be slandered as you are slandering them"
 In these words President Madero today brought to a termination an interview sought by a committee from the anti re-electionst party. which was attemptins to persuade him 10 dismiss from his cabinet the ministers of war and interiori
 The conference had proceeded calmly ID to the moment when the spokesman of the committed, in reply to statement of the president that evil minded Mexicsrs were aiding the rebels, declared that this was true. and that moreover the presi- dent knew these men, because they were members of his own cabinet.
 Ends Statement
 The president then peremptorily ended the interview.
 In line with the above incident Alfredo Robes Dominguez. one of Maderps staunchest supporters during the revoiu- ton, public criticised the administration today, stating that in his opinion not even the removal of the entire cabinet { could save the administration.
 The visit of the committee to President Madero was to interpellate him regarding the source of supplies issued to regular troops and bartered by them for drink and food and in turn bought up by the rebels. There are stories of haciendados having furnished great quantities in re- turn for immunity from robbery, but the most serious report of all is that supplies have been sent from the government arse nals in the capital.
 Scores of the presidents most ardent supporters of six months ago are specu- lating on his ability to carry the courAly through the present crisis. The element which fig giving the most trouble is that which followed Madero during the revo- lution. This party charges him with not putting into immediate effect reforms promised.
