MEXICAN ARMY REV0LTS
President Madero Forced to Defend
PaIace-Gen. Reyes Killed.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Mexico City.-President Francisco !.
Madero with his ministers and a
strong detachment of loyal troops was
fortified in the national palace Sun
day while Gen. Felix Diaz with large
majority of the regulars behind him
has practical control in the capital.
Gen. Bernardo Reyes, who become
the idol of the Mexican army under
the administrations of Gen. Profirio
Diaz, was killed before the national
palace. He, with Gen. Felix Diaz, led
the troops that began the demonstra-
ton against the Madero government.
In several bloody encounters the
president and his supporters succeed
ed in defending themselves against
the rebels and Notwithstanding the
fact that the troops in large numbers
are in state of revolt, which carried
all before them, there was an appear
ance Of genuine optimism at the pal
ace among Madero and his ministers.
To all parts of the republic, Madero
telegraphed reassuring news which he
and his cabinet seemed to believe. The
state governors and military command
ers were assured of the loyalty of the
army and that tranquility had been
restored.

tried some gymnastics on Ahearn, and
as a result had a badly discolored eye
when he appeared in police court. He
said he was employed by Mr. Rookie.
