dero and Suarez:

tion, l am disposed to accept the gov
ernment's version of the manner In
which the ex-President and ex-Vice

were without government approval,
and II the deaths were the result of
a plot it was of restricted character
and unknown to the higher officers of
the government Mexican public opin-
ion has accepted this view Of the at
fair and 1t is not at ali excited. The
: present government appears to be re-
4 'vealing marked evidence of activity,
firmness and prudence and adhesion
to 1t, as far as l have been able to
ascertain, is general throughout the
Republic, indicating the early re-estab
lishment Of peace. The government
as constituted, is very friendly to the
United States and is desirous Of af
fording effective protection to all for
eigners."
