Mexico City. Sept l5-Following a re-
ee2tion given by the Provisional Presi-
dent at the National Palace tonight as
a prelude TO the Mexican celebration Of
Independence Day. General Huerta ap-
reared on the central balcony OF the
nalsce. In his right hand ne carried
Mexican flag and across his breast was
band Of the national green. white and
rec tricolor.
Waving the flag he carried. Huerta
pledged himself 10 the cause Of Mexican
INDEPENDENCE. and the immense multitude
filing the spacious plaza IN front of the
plaza broke into loud EXPLANATIONS Of
Viva Mexico" Viva Huerta"'
The cathedral towers were illuminated
With electric lights, and after Huerta
had given his pledge the bells were set
.anging and rockets shot through the
air in every direction. For the multitude
nee circuses and theatrical performances
we're provided.
The resignation Of Or. Aureliano Urru-
Tia, Minister OF the Interior. announced
several days ago. is now an accomplished
fact II had been hoped 10 adjust mat
ters. and 10 that end the resignation was
denied. but the report cabled to The Trib-
une several days ago has been confirmed.
DR.. Crrutia is under charges preferred
BY Senator Manuel Calero. former Mexi-
can Ambassador at Washington. for ar
resting him in defiance OF his immunity
as Senator.
Dr.. Urrutias anti-foreign sentiments
ave not been disguised during his term
4 Office. and IL is said that the foreign
diplomats here were opposed 20 his re-
tsotion in the Cabinet. Or. Urrutia was
TIE author Of the so-called Huerta ulti-
matum TO the United States, which was
promptly repudiated by Federico Gam
boa. the Foreign Minister.
Dr. Crruta. in a statement given out
BY himself says he resigns because he
cannot approve the policy Of accommoda-
ton OF another member OF the Cabinet
"who seems to have acquired great infiu-
enCe.
Manuel Cara Aldape. Minister Of Fo-
mento is known TO be the Cabinet MEM
Der alluded TO. and the res gnation Of DR..
forth be the dominating personality OF
the Cabinet The post of Minister of the
Interior is Of great Importance as IT in
cludes all questions Of domestic policy,
and therefore at the present time in
wolves the mode Of handling the revolu-
ton
Dr. Urrutia's career in the Interior De
partment is variously judged. In this
section many are disposed TO commend
his craftsmanship in dealing with present
problems. while others characterize his
policies as rather amateursh. Before his
appointment Or. Jrrutia had had no eX-
Ierience i'm political life having been
practising physician.
To Judge from the comments Of the
press. senior Aldape is not viewed with
great favor in the capital.
ON the occasion Of the triumph Of the
Nadero revolution Senior Aldape ran for
Governor Of his native State of Coahuila
against Venustiano Carranza and was
beaten by the latter. Senior Aldape then
went to the United States and associated
himself with the revolutionary movement
Of General Bernardo Reyes.
In December. 1911. after the collapse Of
the Reyist movement, Senior Aldape
Joined Vazquez Gomez, and when Pascual
Orozco revolted against Madero he aftili-
eted himself with the new movement
Orozco sent him TO the United States
where he was Joined by another disap-
pointed gubernatorial candidate Delo
Moreno Canton. Of Yucatan, in an effort
20 raise loan.
II is significant that all the newspapers
to-day which is the eighty-third birth
day OF General Porfrio Diaz, publish
complimentary notices OF the aged states
man. Ell Pals" which attacked General
Diaz virulently Immediately after his
downfall. to-day publishes his picture, ac-
companied by eulogistic paragraph.
