MEXICAN GlAgREss MEETS

City of Mexico, April MANY re-
forms are proposed by President Ma
dero in his message to congress. which
convened in semi-annual SEES bn to
day The more stringent regulation
and eventual abolition Of the gambling
houses and drinking establishments is
favored by the president, who also
will seek permission from congress to
prohibit bull fighting. President Ma
dero recently attended bull fight
given for charity, and this has led the
opponents of his reform measures to
impugn his sincerity, but 1t is prob
able that If Madero has his way the
national sport of Mexico will have
to go. A bill has been prepared and
will be introduced early in the session
opened today having this end in view.
Whether sentiment in congress
against bull fighting is strong enough
to bring about the enactment Of the
law is very doubtful.
Mexico has been haven for pro-
fesisonal gamblers ever since they
were driven from Texas, Arizona and
New Mexico, and already the state
legislature of Sonora has passed an
act prohibiting gambling. President
Madero will use his influence to have
all the states enact similar legislation.
President Madero does not favor the
absolute prohibition of the liquor
traffic, but asks for laws to put the
ban on the distillation of mescal and
other cheap liquors to which the poems
are much addicted, and which are in
reality slow poisons when used moder-
ately and rapid poisons when con-
sumed in large quantities. The presi-
dent thinks the levying of a prohib.
tive tax on the growth of maguey
plants, from which mescal and tequila
are made, would accomplish the de-
sired end. The restriction of the
liquor trade and placing it on higher
scale. putting all the low dens Of vice
out of business, is what President Ma
dero favors. although there are many
reformers in Mexico who have come
to favor absolute prohibition OF the
manufacture or sale of liquor.
