Mexico Reported To Be
Emerging from It's Cha
otic Condition
DIAZ COOPERATING
WITH PRES. HUERTA
Ambassador to the United
States Has Been
Appointed

Mexico City, Feb. 27.--Confidence in tn
Huerta administration appears to grow
stronger daily, if faith may be placed il
the reports issued by the government
authorities concerning the rapid vanish
ing of the rebel spirit throughout thu
republic. President Huerta and Fell,
Daz seem to be cooperating to bring
about general peace.
The collapse of the revolutionary move
ments both north and south appears tc
be imminent. General Orozco has tele
graphed to the federal government the
allegiance of himself and his followers
Zapata himself remains obdurate, but
many of his chief supporters have, with
their men, come into line with the new
regime.
Rafael Tapa and Ex-Governor Hidalgo
of the state of Tiaxcala, who are in
rebellion, have conferred with President
Huerta, offering to surrender on condi-
tion that the government gives recogni-
tion to their officers according to rank,
and pay indemnities and expenses.
President Huerta has refused to COM
ply with these conditions. Regarding
the payment of money, he declared with
emphasis that the government was
through with buying loyalty and would,
instead, send soldiers. 1t is not thought
that Tapia and Hidalgo will accept the
challenge.
Argumedo, one of 0rozco's generals.
has notified the government that he will
place his men in camp at Soledad, in
the state of San Luis Potosi, or any
other place indicated, pending a confer
ence to arrange details for mastering
out or enlisting the men in the regular
establishment
The Zapatistas have added to the list
of towns they already occupied Ameca-
meca, on the Inter- Oceanic railway, 80
miles southeast of Mexico City, and
three Others of minor Importance. Raid
ing continues with the usual atrocities,
but troops are in pursuit of the muir
derous bands, for whom little rest is
promised.
The revolution in the state of Guer-
zero appears likely of an early settle
ment, since the leaders there have prom
ises OF allegiance
Carranza is still in possession of the
region about Monterey, but the head |
quarters of General Trevino, the fed |
eral commander, are at Monterey, and |
Trevino is said to have despatched troops !
in the direction of Saltillo Colonel Pas
quail Orozco, sr., who was allied with |
the rebel movement north of Monterey, /
is known to have been for long time
under the domination of Pascual Orozco,
jr., and telegram sent by the latter
yesterday to Gen. Felix Diaz, promising
absolute allegiance to the government, is
regarded as indicative of his fathers at
titude. 1t is hoped that the rebel gen
eral viii be able to convince his father
and associates of the advisability of CO.
operation.
ri this is done, and all the leaders
Of Orozcos army follow the example
of their leader, it is practically certain
that the Carranza movement will dwin-
die away, leaving the government only
the Zapatista problem to deal with.

on terms. Collins didn't 20 on the train

lieves he and the Red Sox management
can get together later and isn't worry
ing.
Boston, Feb. 27.--Ray Collins. the left.
handed pitcher, arrived from Burlington,
VT, yesterday and had a talk with Pres.
McAleer. They could not come TO an
agreement.
Collins and McAleer are not very wide
apart, and the chances are that the for.
mer will sign before he returns TO Yer
mont.
Some of the Red Sox pitchers and
catchers will start for Hot Springs this
week, but Collins could not 90 with
them, even If he had signed. He has
some matters in Vermont to attend TO
which win detain him until next week.
Duffy Lewis Accepts Contract.
Boston, Feb. 27--President James r.
McAleer's telegram to Duffy Lewis. which
stated that Duffy could accept the con-
tract sent him by the Red Sox manage.
inent as it stood or ne could remain in
California, must have started the left
fielder of the worlds champions think
ing along different line than hereto
fore, for Lewis wired the Boston Amer
lean league management yesterday that
he was wholly satisfied with his con
tract, which he would sign, and that
the club could make arrangement for
his transportation to Hot Springs.
Lewis has been differing with the To-
cal office all winter over his contract |
When the contracts were sent out. Duffy's |
,alled for very substantial raise, but |
10 the surprise of all he sent it back, |
stating that he would not under any |
affix his signature to the |
document. Report after report has come |
rom California during the winter tell. |
ng of the various offers Lewis has re-
eived to coach, and that if he did not |
ret the amount he desired he would
tay on the coast.
The Red Sox management paid abso-
utely no attention to the rumors about
.ewis with the exception Of Mr.AIeer's
Message and the result was that Lewis
ecided that the club owners did not
old him in such high esteem as he held
imself and that it would not take much
iore see-sawing before they disposed
t him.
Lewis will depart at once for Hot
prngs, where he will be obliged to do
ome very strenuous training to get
own to playing condition, for he has
.ken on much weight since the close of
