DOUBTLESS DIAZ WILL DIE.
Will Pay Extreme Penalty for Rebel
HOn-SOldicrS Decimated,

Mexico City, Oct. 25.-Gen. Felix
Diaz, Col. Jose Diaz Ordaza and all
officers Of their rebellious Mexican
troops and marines at Vera Cruz,
who were captured to-day, will be
hailed Immediately before a court
martial and doubtless will suffer the
death penalty. Orders have been Is
sued for converting the court, which
Will be presided over by Gen. Bel
tran. Gen. Diaz, although not now
a member of the army, Is amenable
In such court under the law, which
provides for trial of any civilian I'M
der like circumstances.
Soldiers Of the rebellious troops
Will be decimated-one in ten being
executed. They will be chosen by
lot to pay the penalty for all.
This information was impaired Of
ficially last night.
The collapse of the Diaz movement
one week after its inception, with a
minimum of fighting and bloodshed,
has created the greatest surprise
here. In administration circles,
where optimism has been the key
note since the beginning, the out
come is regarded as the highest pos
sible vi%ndication of the confidence
always expressed in the loyalty OF
the army.
Gen. Felix Diaz, after Gen. Reyes,
has been regarded as the man who
Gould WELD the greatest influence
with the army aud the people gene
rally. His rebellion. ending in a
flasco only slightly less pronounced
tlan that Of Reyes last December,
removes a danger which has long
doomed on the political horizon.
News Of the fall of Diaz created lit
tie demonstration in the capital.

WE WILL LET MEXICO ALONE.
Government Will Not Interfere,
Though Situation is Grave.

washington, Oct. 21.-The atti-
tude or the United States towards
Mexico Is unchanged by the Diaz rev.
olution, and despite the gravity with
which officials here regard the latest
uprising, 1t is the intention Of this
government to adhere strictly to it's
announced policy Of non-intervention.
Ambassador Henry l.. Wilson, on
his way back to his post in Mexico
City, conferred with Assistant Sec
rotary Adee, II before leaving this
city will confer with Secretary Knox.
1t is known here that the Madero
government is planning an active
campaign against Diaz, who is popu-
larly said to be acting in the interest
Of his uncle, Porfiro Diaz, the exiled
President. The warnings Of this
government that Americans and their
interests must be protected will be
renewed.
1t is said that the presence at Vera
Cruz OF the cruiser Des Moines, and
the prospect that in a day or two the
Tacoma will also arrive in that har-
Dor, should not be taken as indica-
tive of intervention.
Assurances have been given that
the mission Of the vessels at Vera
Cruz is purely humanitarian and pre-
stationary; that their visit is in no
way political, but for the sole pur-
pose of a%ffording protection and ref
uge to such Americans and other for
eigners who may need such assist
anCe.

BOTTLE TOOK LONG JOURNEY.
Cast Adrift in Ohio River Five Years
Ago Found i'm Pacific.

A dispatch from Louisville, KY,
says:
Throwing a tightly corked bottle
containing her name and address into
the Ohio river nearly five years ago,
Miss Nora Lea, of 106 East Gray
street, Louisville, did not hear from
1t until to-day, when she learned that
1t had been picked up off San Diego,
California.
The finder, Charles Collins, Of To-
ledo, Ohio, sent Miss Lea the slips of
paper she had placed in the bottle,
saying he had fished it out Of Coro-
nado Bay while on a visit to Cali
fOrnia.
Capt. J.. f. G. Hedgewald, U. s. A.,
OF Louisville, whose interest was at
tracted by the incident, probably will
make a report to the United States
coast and geodetic survey, believing
the bottle has gone through the Mis-
sissipDi, through the Guf of Mexico,
across the Atlantic, Indian and Pa
cific oceans before 1t was washed up
on the coast Of California.
