"He was being removed from one part
of the arsenal to another when he made
dash for liberty. The officers in charge
fred at him and killed him.
The death of Gustavo Madero is still
chief topic of conversation among the
populace Many people sought for SOU
venirs of the dead politician and one per
son paid S25 for a fragment of his eye
glass. Juan Sanchez Azcona, private sec
retary of Francisco Madero, and Jesus
Urueta, Maderos chief supporter in the

stand as a precedent was given by Gem
eral Huerta in an address TO the stu
dents of the military school at 1lalpam.
These students were the ones who began
the revolt in the capital.
Although Huerta directed the campaign
against Felix Dlaz with vigor for more
than one week, he told the boys that
they acted properly and lived up to their
obligations as army men in striking for
the welfare Of their country. All Of them
received commissions as lieutenants.
There Is TO be no laxity In ordinary
army discipline under the new regime.
This was indicated by the prompt execu-
tion in one of the court yards of the
national palace during the day of a buglef
who had fired on his superior officer.
Kenneth Turner of Los Angeles, vho
was arrested as a spy for entering the
rebel lines with a camera during the
battle, was released. Turner had given
some of the rebel outposts an assumed
name The discovery of this and of a
letter signed by Madero in his pocket
resulted in his detention.
1t is reliably reported that Alberto
Fuentes, governor Aguas calientes, and
