REPORTS OF YOUNGER BROTH.

SERVICE MEN.
western Newspaper Union News Service.


Galveston, Tex.-Agents of the
United States secret service who have
been investigating conditions in Mex
leo have made a report to the govern.
ment in Washington in which they
verify in almost every detail the story
told by Raoul and Emilio Madero. two
of the younger brothers of the slain
President, concerning the torture and
mutilation of President Madero and
his brother Gustavo.
From the secret service report,
Emilio Madero's narrative was a con-
servative statement, and the worst de-
tails of the torture to which Fran
cisco and Gustavo Madero were sub
jected were not told by the surviving
Madero brothers.
A copy of the Madero brothers
statement was shown to United States
army officers. THAT statement is a
conservative recital of the actual facts
as to the manner of death meted out
to President Madero and his brother
Gustavo," one of these officers said.
but does not go quite far enough.
for the secret service has reported
told of in the Madero statement were
inflicted upon the unfortunate Presi-
dent, his brother. and others of his
administration"
These tortures. 1t is stated, were in
flicted with the consent If not at the
actual direction of General Victoriano
Huerta, now President of Mexico. and
who, until the day of Madero's being
made prisoner, was supposedly one
of his most loyal friends.
In addition to the gouging out cf
eyes, cutting off of lips and other afro
cities, Gustavo Madero, these secret
service agents say. was tortured in a
manner almost beyond belief with
red hot iron poker. The details of this
part of the torture inflicted upon Gus
tavo are impossible OF publication, so
savage and horrible are the facts.
