Madero's Bankruptcy.

That Francisco Msdero and his fam.
lily were bankrupt before the Diaz rcvo-
luton was testified TO by former off,
cial of the Mexican government. who
said:
1.-The fact of this bankruptcy was
proved by certain judgments against
the firm in the city of Mexico in sums
ranging from $4,000 to 100000 The
firm of Madcro saw that the only So
luton of their condition was 10 pro.
woke revolution In Mexico. By doing
this it could obtain money in three
ways:
"First-From the public treasury in
the caseo f the triumph of the revolu-
tion.
Secondly an arrangement with
the government Of Diaz.
"Third-By obtaining money outside
of the country under the preteXt of aid
ing the revolution,

battle OF Casas Grandes, which was

antour to end the revolution for S2j,.
900 900 With this object negotiations
were carried on in New York between
the representatives of Madero. includ.
ing his father and representatives Of
Limantour.
"Limantour obtained the money IN
Europe and had it ready for delivery.
and this is the reason that Madero was
not attacked at Bustellas, the ranch
then kept by Madero S uncle west of
tho state of chihuahua. Madero was
not attacked, notwithstanding he had
very few followers and there were 5000
federal soldiers in the state of Chi
huahua For the same reason Madero
did not attack Juarcz.'
These negotiations, however, were
ended when Orozco attacked Juarez
