Denver Returns
to Acapulco to
Help Americans
By AssoCIATEp PRESS.

Washington, Feb. b.ss14.-Because Of
intense anti-American feeling at Aca-
pulco, Mex, the cruiser Denver has
been turned back into athat port to
protect Americans and ether foreign
ers until the cruiser South Dakota
puts into port there Sunday.
Many acts of violence have been
committed at Acapulco against Amer
leans. They eliminated in a street
attack upon two officers of the cruiser
Denver before her departure for Aca-
Julia, Salvador, Wednesday. These
demonstrations of hostility endanger-
ing the lives of hundreds Of Amer
leans SO thoroughly alarmed officials
here that they today ordered the Den
yer by wireless to return.
In addition TO the regular American
colony in Acapulco, American ranchers
and miners were forced to fee into
the city by rebel depredations in the
countryside. All these refugees are
dependent upon protection from the
navy, as the rebels forced suspension
of work on railroads which would
have connected the Pacific coast with
the Mexican capital.

Two instructive meetings were held
last night at different places in the
city by the partisans of the Semmes
committee charter and of the Jones
charter. One was held at eight o'clock
in the court house and was an open
session to which everybody was pub
iicly invited. 1t was opened by the
advocates of the Semmes COMMITTEES
charter. They organized for a cam
paign of education into a league for
the promotion of a democratic form Of
commission government. electing Jas.
M. Muldon president and Thomas A.
johnson secretary treasurer.
The special election at which one of
the charters will be adopted will be
held March L.
The Semmes committee charter
meeting was attended by Mr.. Semmes,
Professor II. c. Armstrong, II. II.
Thornton, Alderman ]. E. Concannon.
City Engineer L. Earl Thornton, Judge
William B. Sheppard, of the United
States court, J. H Sheriff., general
secretary of the Y. NJ c. A.. ana a
number OF other citizens. They will
hold another meeting very soon
JONES MEETING.
The meeting of the advocates OF the
Jones charter was in the nature of a
caucus and was rather privately held
in the office of Attorney Jerry j. Sui
livan. who stated at public meeting
not long ago that he favors the Jones
charter as the lesser of two evils"
The meeting was an invitation func-
tion, very select. and full details as
to those present are lacking. 1t Is
understood, however, that they met a
little earlier than the advocates OF the
Semmes committee charter and when
they had caucussed awhile they ad-
journed and visited the Semmes COM
mittee charter meeting. They didn't
attend the session of the anti-Joneses
in body, of course, but dropped in
casually, at intervals, one by one.
sEMMEs MEETING.
Immediately after the opening of the
meeting Professor Armstrong was
made temporary chairman and Mr..
Johnson temporary secretary.
1t was decided at once to form into
a concrete body for the purpose Of
conducting an open campaign for the
Semmes committee charter and Mr..
Semmes placed the name of Mr.. Mu.-
don in nomination for the presidency.
1t was seconded and the vote was
unanimous, although Mr.. Muldon was
not present. H. II. Thornton then
nominated Mr.. johnson for secretary
treasurer, as it was found that there
will be some necessary expenditures
for printing, mailing and possible ex-
penses Of meeting.
Mr.. Johnson accepted in a brief
speech, thanking those present and
saying that he considers the Semmes
charter most expressive of a demo-

capital has. in the opinion of close OBJ

timent of Mexicans in regard to inter
vention than has the two-year period
of revolution.
Months ago quiet feeling began to
develop among a few of the better
class of Mexicaris in favor CT outside
assistance but it found no public ex-
preston at that time. This sentiment
has steadily grown, however and the
events OF the past few days have
strengthened It tremendously. The
subject IS now frankly discussed by
Mexicans and foreigners and frequent
ly it is Mexican citizen who ex-
presses the opinion publicly that the
United States or some other power or
powers Jointly should intervene.
In the COlonia Juarez last night. a
gathering OF Mexican women of the
better class made no secret of their
desire for Intervention. Their formal
statement of their feelings was as fol-
lows:
PRAY FOR THE END.

country's troubles, even through inter-

Washington, Feb. 14.-News that
Madero had voluntarily relinquished
the presidency of Mexico brought re-
lief to official circles, where the sit
uation had grown tense. The state
department officials have watched
eagerly day and night the situation in
Mexico and the government was ready
for almost any contingency that might
arise. AS a result of the cooperation
of the war and navy departments. the
combined forces are in readiness for
Mexican service. Coincident with the
news of the resignation came the
wireless report of the arrival at Ma
zatlan of the cruiser Colorado. Five
other warships are on their way and
three thousand soldiers are under
marching orders.

President-E1ect
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Princeton, N. J., Feb. 1.-THE guard
Of secret service men with President
elect Wilson was doubled today. Two
operatives have been with the gov
ernor constantly since election day.
The reason for the sudden increase
was not divulged, but the guard of
four now permits a watch over the
president elect throughout the twen-
ty-four hours of the day. Hitherto
there had been no one on duty at the
Wilson home after midnight.
The secret service men have a
frame shack opposite the Wilson home
and through its many windows they
can see approaches from every side.
The governor had an appointment in
Philadelphia today with his dentist and
planned to do some shopping in New
York later.

Mexico City. Feb. 14-President Ma
dero has resigned. De La Barra will
likely succeed him temporarily. Ra-
fael Hernandez, minister of the in
terror. has also resigned. The. resig-
nation of Madero was announced on
authority OF the British legation, where
DE La Barra is taking refuge. Ar
rangements for the succession of De
ia Barra TO the presidency are now
being made at the British legation.
The Mexican senate was cai.ed in
session for this evening to receive Ma
1e-rs resignation, which is necessary
under the law. Until it is formally
accepted it will not be officially con-
armed. Senior De La Barra, on his
way 20 the senate, made a brief adj
dress assuring the citizens who crowd
ed around him. early settlement was
certain, possibly before morning.
The resignation of Madero came at
the end of a day of heavy fighting.
Both sides apparently were desperate
for an advantage, and their guns were
brought into play early in the day.
There was a raking fire intermittently
until late this afternoon. The federal
engineers placed series of mines
charged with dynamite beneath houses
between the arsenal and palace, pre-
paratory to clearing a passage four
blocks long, through which to direct an
attack The building were wall to
wall and thickly populated. The res
idents were warned. and evacuated
with only their personal belongings.
Ambassador Wilson was twice re-
quested by the Mexican foreign min
lister to move from the American en-
bassy but Wilson refused. The object
was to place federal cannon in posi-
tion where the present location had
been endangered All trains leaving
the capital were crowded with refu-
gees.
THE BATTLE OPENS.
The rebels opened the battle today
at a quarter to six when they started
firing in the direction of the federal
concentration points. It had been ex-
pected that the federals would attack
first.
President Madero this morning sent
another ultimatum to Felix Diaz, de-
manding his surrender, and the reply
came in the shape of 8 number of
cannon balls from the insurgents big
gest guns.
