General Delgado. who acted as the

Twenty men of the Twenty ninth

The arrest OF Madero took place in

found all the entrances guarded.
One soldier. overexcited by the
words of Banquet, pointed his gun at

The soldier was disarmed and placed

The finest irony attended the arrest

He had invited General Huerta to

United States Will Demand
That the Latest Mexican
Government Prove
It's Worth

4 WASHINGTON, Feb 1s.-The gov
ernment of Francisco r. Madero having
fallen and General Victoriano Huerta
having been proclaimed president OF
Mexico, it devolves upon United States
Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson to
move at once with the de facto Mex
lean government for the protection Of
Americans throughout the republic.
1t will be Mr.. wilson's first duty to
treat with the new president for the
amelioration of conditions imposed on
Americans and other foreigners as a
result of the lighting in the streets Of
Mexico City in which some foreigners
were killed, others wounded and thou
sands rendered homeless.

travail through which Mexico has
passed in the last two years will be a

While this government will take no
concern over the choice of a successor
to President Madero. such successor
will have to demonstrate his ability to
maintain stable government before po-
liticaI recognition will be accorded him
by the United States.
Mexico today is honeycombed and
torn asunder by many revolutionary

and the Zapata uprising in the south.
Lawiessness has become rife and

In order to lay claim to political rec

United States will demand that the new

could not be ase eEtained for several
hours.
The direct move against Madero
was the result of plot which had
been brewing since yesterday.
SOLDIERS UNWILLING TO FIGHT
From the first it had been known
that General Banquet was unwilling
to fight. His men were Of the same
mind. He held complete command of
them. and it was not doubted they
would follow him in any adventure,
which they did at the national palace
this afternoon.
The forces, numbering 1000 men,
which arrived late yesterday, were
sent Immediately to the palace. osten-
sibly to relieve the reserves there. The
reserves were sent into the field.
An agreement between Generals
Banquet and Huerta was reached last
night, but the first intimation that
Blanquet's men had of the new role
they were to play was shortly before
the successful stroke was made.
BLANQUET HARRANGUEs FORCE
Banquet drew his men up in order
and delivered a stirring speech.
This inhuman battle must end" he
said THE time has come when some
drastic means must be taken to stop a
conf1ict in which father is killing son
and brother is fighting against brother;
when noncombatants are sharing the
fate of war-and all this because Of
the caprice of one man."
Banquet then issued orders for. the
arrest of the president and assigned
detachment to that duty. Madero soon
was a prisoner in his own rooms.
One reason given for the attitude OF
General Banquet from the beginning
was the presence Of his son in the
ranks of Diaz
ssyIyAS,, FOR HUERTA AND DIAZ
when the arrest of the president and
his ministers became known. crowds
gathered In the streets through which
they paraded shouting ''vivas" for
Huerta and Diaz.
A conference was held between the
representatives OF these two generals.
and an agreement was reached whereby
the appointment OF General Huerta to
the provisional presidency was pro-
claimed.
Prior to this. however. Huerta's at
tempt to communicate with Diaz pre-
cipitated one of the sharpest engage
ments of the day. The fire from the
rebel rifles and machine guns was long
sustained 1t was by no means sertain
at that time that the coup which had
been carried out meant the end of
hostilities.
At $3.50 in the afternoon the can
nonading continued heavy and the rat
tie of machine guns was heard in vari-
GUS quarters At that time San Fran
cisco street was being cleared by
Huerta as if he were expecting an at
tack.
A half hour later the order to cease
firing was sounded and the battle was
over

SOCIETY IS FORMED
BY FRATERNITY MEN
Purpose to Establish Closer
Relationship Between Col
lege Alumni of City.

For tho purpose Of establishing q
closer relation between college alumni
who live IN Salt Lake City and Utah
and to perfect an organization OF these
college men which can be effective in
the promotion OF tho interests of the
University of Utah in general, about
200 college men met at the Hotel Utah
last evening and enjoyed an informal
banquet.
Approaching the great good which
such an organization could do for the
University and that through the stimu-
lus OF fraternity interest this good
could be more easily accomplished, a
meeting Of all the Greek letter frater-
nifty men in the city was called for the
aud TO make it possible for college
alumni and present students of the
state university to become acquainted.
This organization is composed entire
" of men who while in college were
members o. Greek letter fraternities
and men who are now members Of such
organizations at tho university. Seated
at the banquet were many of tho most
influential men Of the city, including as
Former Senator j. l.. Rawlins, j. c.
Mclean. vIlen Miller, Doctor William
c. Ebaugh and Doctor Will Ellcrbeck.
The sentiment Of the meeting was
that much of the apathy Of the people
of Utah toward the university was
due TO ignorance Of what tho college
is doing. 1t was thought that by dis
semiDating knowledge among the peo-
pie of the state much Of the ignorance
could be removed. Tho fraternities at
fha I1n1ynrSify aNrnyH1nn n nnrfnr
Ebaugh and Professor Marshall, were
societies formed for the purpose Of
forming a closer fellowship and raising
the ideals Of their members. 1t was
thought then that by working through
these societies as instruments, greater
interest In the university could bo at
tanned.
During the banquet many strong
speeches were made In behalf of the
spread of knowledge In regard to the
accomplishments OF the state univer-
sity. Those who spoke were former
Senator J. j. Rawlins, J. G. Mclean,
Judge George G. Armstrong, Doctor w.
g. Ebaugh, Doctor Edwin LeCompte,
Prof. George M. Marshall, George O.
Relf. Glen Miller and Prof. Phillip c.
Bing.
After the remains OF the feast were
to organize tho Utah Interfraternity
conference. Glen Miller acted as chair
man of the meeting. These officers
were then elected: President, Frank
Moore Of Tau Delta Tau; secretary,
Robert Smith of Sigma Nj; treasurer,
Louis e. Arnold OF Beta Theta Pi;
members of executive committee. Glen
Miller of Phi Gamma Delta: W. G..

journed to the reception rooms, where

because OF the ordinance, which decrees
that berries shall be packed Ia quart

IN previous years.
The delegation wss divided against

WILL FORCE RAILROAD
TO BUILD VIADUCT
City Commission Passes Ordinance Di-
recting Oregon Short Line to
Erect Structure.

It was definitely decided by the city
commission yesterday to have the Ore
gon Short Line railroad build a viaduct
over its tracks on Third North street
between Third and Fourth West streets.
An ordinance TO that effect was
passed.
Several weeks ago the commission
passed an ordinance requiring the
building Of viaduct at Second North.
This was later rescinded and the site
changed to Third North. Then Com
missioner W. II. Korns objected, de-
clariug that it was unreasonable to ask
the railroad to build viaduct on that
street when other streets, such as First
or Second South streets, were in great
er need of viaducts. Mr.. Korns's op-
position was Withdrawn yesterday, it
being shown that viaduct at Third
North would accommodate as large a
population as a viaduct at any other
crossing could
