MEXICO CITY FALLS
IN REVOLT OF ARMY
Continued From Page ~

|
President Madero and band of loya
troops defended the palace.
| General Villar, a loyalist, was killed
in one of the four conflicts during the
day.
One hundred and fifty to 200 were
killed during the skirmishes in the
streets.
Sunday General Diaz and his follow
ers held the arsenal and all public
buildings except the national palace.
Rebel soldiers patroled the streets.
Seize Public Buildings.
The army rose in revolt in Mexico
City Sunday. took possession of the
public buildings, shot down federal
adherents in the streets, released Gen.
eral Felix Diaz, leader of the Vera
Cruz revolt, from prison, and, falling
into line under his banner, practically
captured the Mexican capital.
Fight Before Palace.
The day was marked by four separ-
at } engagements, the most sangulnary
of which took place in front of the ma
tional palace But the most import
ant was that which terminated in the
formal surrender of the troops in the
artillery barracks.
It is believed that not less than 200
persons were killed in the fighting,
Among the number was General Ber-
nardo Reyes, ex-secretary Of war, and
strong adherent Of Porfirio DiaZ.
The mutinous troops were led by
students Of the military school at Tial-
pam, suburb. They marched to the
prison to which General Felix Diaz
had been transferred for safekeep1ng
and released him. General Bernardo
Reyes was also freed from Santiago
military prison, there being no resist
ance in either quarter.
To the army of the mutineers
quickly came portions of the first cav
airy, twenty-fourth cavalry and twen-
tieth infantry. General Manuel Mon
dragon, retired, was in command. but
gave way to Generals DiaZ and Reyes.
General Reyes is Killed.
At $3.50 o'clock the first encounter
with loyal troops occurred in front OF
the national palace, and General Reyes
whose long record as an army officer
was broken little more than a year
ago by a farcical revolt, was killed in
stantly by bullet through the head.
Many fell in this engagement and
among the scores Of bodies which
strewed the streets were those Of mi
nor officers, women and boys of the
lower classes and members Of the
great crowd of spectators which had
gathered at the firing of the first shot.
General Lauro Villar, post COM
mander of the capital, who remained
loyal was among those slightly
wounded. The minister Of war, Gen
eral Garcia Pena, also received a
slight injury.
At the first call to arms President
Madero took command of force of
approximately one thousand. consist
! ing of mounted police Chapultepec ca

unteers He appeared at the head of
this force a mile from the national
palace, riding a big gray horse. BY

generally had suspected of being dis

Huerta No Nearer
Recognition by U. S.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 27.-The out
come of the election of Mexico failed
to cause surprise in official circles
here. 1t had been recognized all along
that an election in Mexico under the
prevailing conditions could be moth
ing but a farce. No matter what the
result Of the election in Mexico had
been the successful candidate would
have failed to secure recognition from
the Government. Huerta's regime Will
never be recognized by the United
States. Neither will any man he Sc
lects be accepted.
Government officials declared that
the United States will now await de-
velopments in the republic. No move
will be made by this country they as
serted. until 1t is clear what Huerta
intends to do.
Adyices from John Lind President
Wilson's personal representative in
Mexico, and Charge 'Shaughnessy at
Mexico City, indicated that General
Huerta is expected to remain in pow er
at least until the convention of the
new Congress next month
Secretary of State Bryan to- day de-
clined to discuss the Mexican cleo
tons.
Il can not comment on the cleo
tons at this time" he said, because
We have not received the official count
of the vote. This probably will not
reach us before the end of the week,
because Of the difficulty of access To
the number of outlying States of
Mexico. Until the State Department
receives an official report of yester-
days elections no one here can be eX-
pected to comment upon them"

MRS. KING PINS
HOPE On HER
OWN STORY
Woman, on Trial for Completely IA
Husbands Death, Only Wit
ness for Defense.

MACON, Oct. 27.-Mrs. Katherine
King probably will know early to-
morrow afternoon whether or not sne
shall be punished for alleged COM
pli@ity in the murder of her husband.
This afternoon she will go on the
stand and tell the jurors her own
story. She declares that she will not
spare herself, but tell all of the de-
tails so far as they affect her.
The trial of Mrs. King began this
morning before a courtroom only half
filled with spectators. There were less
people present than at the trial of
Nick Wilburn, who committed the
murder and who has been sentenced
to hang
Mrs King entered the courthouse
through the bridge of signs" which
connects with the Jail. She found three
OF her childrentwaiting for her and she
aftectlonately and tearfully clasped
and fondled them. The children we're
not allowed to stay in the court
room
Only Eleven Jurors.
The panel of jurymen was exhaust
ed IN seeking to obtain twelve UNI
preJudlced men, and when eleven ju-
rors had been selected to sit on the
case Judge Park ordered the Sheriff
TO summon other veniremen. How
ever, the attorneys agreed to proceed
with the eleven jurors and the trial
oegan about 10:30 O'Clock.
Three witnesses were examined
during the morning session, DR.. c. A.
White being the first. He swore prina.
clpally to being asked during the
summer of 1912 by Mrs. King for a
quantity of strychnine. J. p. Cor
don, brotherin-law of James King,
the murdered man, testified to finding
Kings body and also swore to the
intimacy between Mrs. King and Will
burn. The testimony of Jesse Bar
Der, negro was along the same line.
Sentiment for Acqr.ittaI.
Ihere is feeling in Jones County
that Mrs. King will be acquitted
Certain ii is that the sentiment is in
her favor, even among the men who
are attending the trial. Attorney
Mcneil states that he will not offer
any witnesses, simply putting Mrs.
King on the stand. The arguments
VIII probably begin late this after
noon.

holding office. however. and he will
be eligible 20 hold either the Presi-
dency OF Vice Presidency If duly
elected"
Though Huefta had announced that
he would not accept the Presidency,
hundreds Of votes We're cast for him.
and II is probable that when all the
returns are in he will be found rank
ing third in the contest.
The chief reason for the light vote
Is believed 10 be the law requiring
that every ballot cast be signed with
the name and address Of the voter
In the present situation Mexicans who
opposed Huerta We're afraid to go on
record as favorins Diaz. Therefore,
that candidate, although having thou
sands of supporters in the capital,
was unable TO receive his full voting
strength.
1t Will be several weeks before all
the returns are in from the isolated
sections of the Republic, but it is
probable that before that time Con-
gress viii have convened, declared the
Deputies and Senators supported by
the clerical held and chosen Huerta
as President ad interim.
