Senator Hitchcock Says
Madero's Rule Was
"A Miserable Failure

An improvement in the Mexican
situation as the result Of the present
trouble is foreseen by Senator Gilbert
NJ Hitchcock OF Nebraska. a member
Of the Foreign Relations Committee. He
characterizes the Madero government
as "a miserable failure whose break
down was inevitable. Almost any man
of strong character would be more like
ly to esta ablish a stable government. de-
clares Mr.. Hitchcock.

to General Madero in his revolution was

for 1t brought the affair to it's present
situation. General Madero, Mr.. Hitch
cock believes, is on the verge Of a
complete physical breakdown.
. Senator William Alden Smith OF Michi-
gan. chairman of the Senate Committee
which has been investigating conditions
in Mexico. says:

cent events in Mexico this outbreak

appearance of spontaneity and without
premeditation. was. in fact, the ccnsum-
nation OF a plot which has been hatch
ing for month or more, became known
today. II was even reportei that PSt ST.
dent Madero. learning something OF the
measures proposed had eI deayored des-
pcrately to temporize, hoping TO gam
time in which to intrench himself. This,
il was explained, was the reason why
Madero failed to order the execution OF
Gen. Felix Diaz, whom he held In
prison.
Madero feared that such action would
at once bring about the uprising In
Mexico City. The conspiracy, 1t wae
stated, was solely Of the ID az ana Reyes
adher.nts. Zapata. who has been
threatening the capital for months, was
not joined with the plot. That the revo-
lutionists counted on his aid Immediate
ly after execution of the coup was as
serted.
That the uprising was solely of the
Diaz forces was assigned as the reason
today for the continued optimism OF
federal officials that the Madero ad-
ministration would weather the storm
of civil war In the capital.
Foreign attaches here, however, We're
not 50 sanguine Their belief was that
Diaz bearing the name OF the Iron
Man of Mexico" and persoDalyk popu-
lar throughout Mexico, might be The
one man who could weld all the scat
tered revolutionary movements into one
formidable whole and overturn The
present regime. The revolutionists here
are claiming support Of several rebel
leaders in various parts Of Mexico.

MADERO HAS Asked
BRYAN TO IGNORE
..lIlcAh REVOLT
News Here is That 4new Sec
retary Of State Is Urged to
Keep 4Hands cff.r

An appeal to william J. Bryan to give
the Madero government six month";
time 10 work out its difficulties has
recently been conveyed 10 the Com
u,oner by trusted friend Of President
Madeso.
The sppeal was made to Bryan as the
prospective Secretary Of State In the
Wilson Cabinet. and the man who
would must probably dominate the
course Of this Government in foreign
relations after March e.
News Of the message sent to Bryan
came out today following On the re-
ports of an upheayai at Mexico City.
The message was sent to Bryan within
the last ten days, the mesSager Of Ma
dero going to Miami to zee him.
The Mexican President sent q letter
to Bryan. This letter has not become
public property. But the general tenor
of IL has become known. Madero be-
sought Bryan to have this. Government
It's hand from Intervention for SIX
months. At the end Of that time. he
made if clear, IL order was not restored
or assured. then the United States could
take the course which seemed most
necessary from It's viewpoint

any intfmation that he was sitting on
the edge Of q revolt. 1t II considered
not unlikely here that he knew trouble
might be expected
In any event, 1t appears to have been
the view OF the Madero government that
the Taft government would not move
IN the direction of Intervention unless
unforeseen events absolutely drove Il
into such z course Moreover. Madero
apparently felt that the new Admins
tration might determine on z more as-
gressive policy.

Military Dictatorship
Would Follow the
Overthrow of Madero

MEXICO CITY, Feb. l0-In predict
ing a long reign Of disorder before this
seething country settles down to nor
NAL inactivity, those familiar with the
situation today were interested mainly
in a discussion of the men likely to play
the most prominent parts in national
affairs, should the revolt against Ma
dero force him from the Presidency.
The first result OF the overthrow Of
the Madero regime would be the estab-
lishment by the army Of a military
dictatorship. The man on whom the
opinion apparently settles as the most
likely choice OF the military is Gen.
Geronimo Trevino. commanding the
third military district with head
quarters at Monterey.
Others To Be Considered.
1t is acknowledged. however. that
there are many other men who must
be considered II only for the reason
that they are capable of making con-
tinuous trouble for any government
that does not take pains to please them.
These are the men of the type of Pas
cual OroZco, Antonio Rojas Ynez Sal
aZar, and Emilio Campanr, revo.u-
tionsry leaders who have kept the
flame of rebellion burning in every
state in northern Mexico and whose ac-
can and other foreign capital is chief
ly interested have kept Intervention b.
the United States an incessent i'm
possibility.
In the south there Is Zapsta, the un-
conquered rebel chief. whose blood
thirsty band has been fighting for five
years without let-up. Should Zapata
choose to aign himself with any of the
northern rebels named the combination
would be strong enough to upset any
dictatorship established by the army.
Diaz Thought Weak
Gen. Felix Diaz. whose name alone
is enough to conjure with. and whose
spectacular liberation from prison and
participation in the assault on the palace
has brought him into the brightest
glare OF the political and military line
light is not considered seriously by
acute observers OF Mexican affairs.
Felix Dlaz is believed to have in
herited little OF the family characters
tics OF his iron-handed uncle. His cap
ture at Vera Cruz last October BY a
mere handful of men, and without a
show of resistance from his 1000 troops
is remembered by the army. and there
is thought TO be little chance that the
military would choose him as national
dictator.

Mexican embassy this morning. Fol-
lowing the fighting at the palace yes
terday. a night Of unlimited terror
was experienced, and while various
depredations were committed by
troops on either side, and by unat-

The most serious news that the
embassy had today Is that troops in
Monterey have revolted and gone over
bag and baggage to the party OF Diaz.
The Monterey garrison is a Iargs one,
and II II is marching to Mexico City,
as reported, the adherents of the
Diaz and Reyes cause will be greatly
