RESIGNATION RELIEVES j. S.
MADERO'S SURRENDER OF OF.
FICE PLEASES OFFICIALS.
However, the Action Does Not Sur
prise the Government at
Washington.

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE news of
Francisco |. Madero's voluntary reln-
quishment of the presidency of Mexi-
co brought relief to official circles in
Washington, in which the situation,
during the last five days, had been
hourly growing more tense.
The announcement coming at the
close Of day which had been stead
lily turning against President Madero,
hardly was surprising. 1t served to
clear the horizon instantly of the
storm clouds which came nearer as
the prospect of armed interference on
the part of the United States seemed
inevitable.
Since the opening of the fight in
Mexico City, the navy and war depart
ments have had their combined forces
ready for Mexican service
Coincident with the receipt of the
news of Madero's abdication a wire
less message was flashed TO the navy
department here announcing the ar
rival in the Pacific Mexican port of
Mazatlan of the cruiser Colorado, the
first of the six American warships to
reach its destination off the shores of
the revolution-torn republic.
Secretary Knox was early in consul
tation with Assistant Secretary Hunt
ingtOn Wilson and the state depart
ment staff Immediately after the an
nouncement from Mexico City and hur-
ried dispatches We're sent to Ambas-
sador Henry Lane Wilson in the Mex
lean capital
1t was said no definite instructions
would be sent to Mr.. Wilson until he
had officially reported the abdication
of President Madero. In the absence
Of such a report department officials
declined to comment upon the sudden
and drastic turn in Mexican affairs.
President Taft was notified of the
development by White House attaches
and soon afterward heard from the
secretary of state. The presidents
comment was not made public.
Madero's resignation, it is felt gen.
orally by officials here, justified the
correctness of this governments atti-
tude in adopting and following persist
emily hands-off policy in the solution
of the Mexican situation and it also
is the prevailing opinion that it will
be expedient TO continue a patrol in
Mexican waters until conditions have
settled considerably.
