MADERO, IN CAPITAL,
PREDICTS TROUBLE
Brother of Slain President of
Mexico Believes Diaz and
Huerta Will Fight.

Julio Madero. brother of the late
President of the Mexican Republic. ar
rived in Washington today for his first
visit to the American Capital. He was
joined here by Senior Francisco Con-
zalez Gante. confidential agent Of the
revolutionary-that is. the anti-Huerta-
party in Mexico. They paid visit to
the Capitol. and later went to the Ma
tional Museum.
Both these gentlemen are products OF
American educational institutions, Senor
Madero being a graduate Of the Boston
Institute of Technology. They will be
in Washington two or three days, and
will then return to New York.
That Mexico City is verging upon
conditions that will precipitate vio-
lent quarrel between President Huerta
and Felix Diaz was the declared ex-
pectation of Senior Gante- Diaz and
Huerta no longer appear together In
public. and their relations have reached
the point of strain at which Mexico
City observers believe they are rivals
for control Of the remaining military
power of the government.
THE so-called Huerta government,
said Senior Gante, 'is just what might
be expected OF one founded on treason,
murder, and deceit. 1t exercises no real
authority outside the federal district; ;
that is, it is in a position parallel to
that which usurp,ng government
would occupy in the United States II,

palace. while Diaz. his rival. has with
drawn to his country place, Hacienda
Cristo, a few miles outside the city:
Thither he has taken about all the fed
eral artillery.
THE constitutionalists in the north
are gradually driving back Huerta's
troops, and 1t will take only few
weeks to have Mexico City isolated and
invested from all Sides"

important advices from Governor Car
