 THREATENED
WHILE HuERTA IS BUSY WITH oRozco, zAPATA THREATENS
 TO ATTACK CAPITAL.
Notifies Foreign Ministers to Take Necessary Precautlons--Has Army of 5000 Armed insurrectos
 Near Federal District.

Mexico City, May 24.---The sense of relief experienced quite generally in the capital by reason of the decisiy 3 nature of yesterdays battle was tenn pered today by news of threat fronI Emillano Zapata, the Morelos rebel, that he will attack the city within eight days if President Madero fails to resign within that period.
 Although the threat is looked upon by government officials as a possible rnse on the part of Orozco, intended to halt the advance of the federals toward the north, 1t will not be over- looked On the contrary. precautions are to be taken to guard against a surprise from that quarter
 The warning came in communica- tions to the chamber of deputies and simultaneously notices were sent to all foreign consuls in the capital ad- vising them to take such precautions for the protection of their subjects as they might see fit They were as- sured, however that no harm would come to foreigners if it could bc avoided The presence of strong bands of armed bandits almost in tha edge of the federal district has not failed to give the "ultimatum' of Za- pata some weight, particularly in the minds of the foreign population
 Orozco's connection with the Zapata communication was shown In the minds of the officials. by the fact that similar notes were received by ser- eral of the ministers from Jose Madrid Juian, orozco's representative in the United States. zapata claimed to have between 6,OOO and 5000 armed men for the attack. The notices were dated in Cuatutla. Moreios, but were mailed in the postoffice here.
 General Huerta was said tonight to be continuing toward tine north. General Blanquet, after re-taking Ayiles, ten miles southwest of Tor reon, on May 21, had further en- counter near Sabino, to the soutn- west where he was said to have again routed the enemy yesterday with con- siderable loss.

ROOSEVELT IS
 IN A HAPPY SPIRIT
SAYS HE WILL WHIP POLITICIANS OUT OF NEW JERSEY AS IN
 PENNSYLVANIA.

Camden, N. J.. May 24,-''We are going to beat the politicians right out in New Jersey next Tuesday, said Colonel Roosevelt at the close of his second days campaign in this state. "When we got through with them in Pennsylvania there wasn't enough left of them to put into a coal scuttle. It will be about the same thing here"
 Colonel Roosevelt made a swing through New Jersey today and the crowds which turned out to hear him VI ere large and enthusiastic In some places the combined efforts of police men and firemen were of no avail in keeping them back The people swarmed about him, cheering and struggling to get close enough to shake hands with him. At times the colonel was obliged to pitch in with both arms to fight his way out
 Colonel Roosevelt did not mention the name of President Taft during the day trip. In Camden, where he spoke tonight he replied to q state ment which Mr. Taft was reported to have made
 MT. Taft says that if my proposal for a referendum on judicial decis- fr.nc vrara odOntad caid +ho colon. 1 there would be nothing to prevent < legislature from repeating the thir- teenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution and disfranchising the negroes. It is i'm possible to treat such statements as either sincere or seriou, It is sheer nonsense, You might just as well speak of recalling the vote by which the thirteen original states adopted the constitution.
 Suppose that the income tax amepdment to the constitution is adopted. Does MT Taft think that two or three states would recall that amendment after it had become 8 part of the constitution? It is difficult tc reply seriously to such nonsense.
 Tn his other speeches, Colonel Roosevelt mixed politics with various other things. some of which bore no relation to the issues of the cam paign. He told stories of his exp j. ri9nces in the "cow country" and during the Spanish war. Tt was no. much of war" he said. but it was all the war there was ani 1t wasn't my fault that there wasn't enough to go around.'
 He gave advice to parents IS to the proper way to bring up children and urged the people to practice the square deal"
 Colonel Roosevelt will leave Tro.- ton early tomorrow and go across tie state In the evening he will speak in Elizabeth.

TAFT SAYS HE'LL BE
 REPUBLICAN NOMINEE
TELLS NEW JERSEYfTES HE HAS ENOUGH DELEGATES TO lN-
 SURE CANDIDACY.

Jersey City, N, J., May 24.-'1 have enough delegates to renominate me at the Chicago convention" That was President Taft's declaration to- day to a score or more Republicans who met him at the luncheon given in his honor by State Senator Ere hnghuysen of New Jersey at Somer- ville
 The presidents second campaigni 2 day through New Jersey was one of the hardest he has ever put in. For nS1re than five hours he motored over dusty New Jersey roads, talked to thousands of people and kept up his attacks on Colonel Roosevelt.
 The crowds that met the president were large and fairly demonstrative. His "commutor" audiences were un- usually enthusiastic and, although 1 he started out in the morning with but little of the fighting spirit he showed in Ohio, he warmed up as the day grew older and before he made lhis last speech here tonight he was in his old stride and was talking about MT. Roosevelt in every speech.
 It is a very unwise and dangerous thing to depart from that wise tra- dition that limits a president to two
 terms" said the president in a typ
 ical speech at Plainfeld late today
 Tt is especially unwise with a man of Mir. Roosevelts type, with his ca
 pacity for appealing to the people
 his ability to arouse the elements that
 are disturbing in the community 2 preaching doctrines of discontent

 and his impatience of legal restraint It would certainly be calamity tt

CONTEST IS
 ANTICIPATED
BELIEVED ROOSEVELT WILL oe. JECT TO ELIHu ROOT AS
 TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN.
Fight May Also be Waged on Nation Settlement of the Contested
 Delegations.

Washington, May 24.-The bitter. ness of the fight that is to rage abou the Republican national committee when 1t begins consideration of con. test cases in Chicago June 6 was em. phasized today by statement from Representative William Mckinley head of the Taft campaign forces.
 Mir Mckinley declared it was be- coming apparent that Colonel Roose- yelt and his followers will resort to every known means to terrorize the Chicago convention"
 That the time has come when the moral stamnia of leaders of the Re publican party Is to be tested as It has not been since the civil war, IS certain" Mir Mckinley continued. Tt is within the power of the nation al committee to make or break tie Republican party for many years 70 come. The party is strong enough to withstand the shock of any attack within or without, but no party can survive a compromise with principle or an abandonment of all principle. The Mckinley statement was given out as the result of widespread re- ports that Colonel Roosevelt desired the removal from the national com mittee of certain members, whom he knewJ to be strongly opposed to him. Sehator Dixon, the Roosevelt man ag6r, was not in the city today, but lis close associates declared the <sooseyelt committee gave no approy- al to the stories that the national committee was controlled against their randidate
 MT. McKinley's statement was fol- lowed by another from the Taft bur eau in which it was as 3erted that telegrams circulated by the Rooae- ycll headquarters uendng to show that the Taft supporters were con sidered a compromise candidate were without foundation.
 First, last and all the time, de- clared this statement, 'Pres'dent Taft is in the present fight to stay and his friends will stay with him until he is renominated and reelected"
 The statement by Manager McKin ley was most open and direct.
 Tt must he expected that those na- tional committeeman, whose con sciences may force them to disagree with Mir Roosevelt will be openly denounced by him." said Mir McKin- ley. "and the whole committee Till be misrepreesnted and villifed, col lectiyely and individually by MT. Roosevelt, exactly as he has misrep- resented and denounced those who have hitherto disagreed with him dur ing his public career.
 "The friends Of President Taft be- leve the Republican national com mttee as now constituted is repre- sentative of the Republican party anc that it will do its full duty by he par ty at Chicago The friends of th' president will not try their cases o contested delegations before the coun try until the national committee meets To the country at large the friends O the president proetst against the tac ics now being employed by Theodor Roosevelt in an endeayor to excit popular passion against the member of the controlling body of the Repub lican party before an iota of evidenc in the contests to be decided ha been laid before that body"

Georgia Republicans of four years ago
laid down" on Taft in this year
presidential election. This is shown by
an analysis of the vote cast Tuesday
and that Of 1908
Four years ago there were approx
mately $4,000 votes cast in Georgia.
This year the number was, in round fig
ures, 10000. This shows slump of
1900, when growth in population
would have warranted an increase Of at
least 1000.
The Democrats in Georgia last Tues
day polled Approximately $4,000 for Will
son. against 10000 for Bryan in 1903.
This is a Democratic gain Of 10000.
II is probable that 10000 OF these we're
among the ZOO who voted for Wat

Of past years and won back enough of
the Democrats who before voted for
