Emilio Madero, brother of former
President Madero, has been shot and
killed north of Monterey, according to
reliable information received at Mex
leo City.
Hope for immediate peace in Mexico
is slight. Rebel activity in the north
has increased, and the governments

Azcona, private secretary to Madero,
has caused all surviving close associ-
ates of the murdered president and
vice president to flee from the capital
of Mexico.
The body of ex-Vice President Jose
Pine Suarez was order removed to the
Spanish cemetery in Mexico City. The
request by his family to have the
body transported to Yucatan will
probably be denied.
