found that ] had received a scalp
wound, burns of the face, neck,

several bruises from which have
recovered with the exception of
small sore spot on the right arm
and about one fourth of the total

HAVE FEAR FOR FOREIGNERS.

Washington. D. c., Feb. 24.-The
killing of Francisco l.. Madero and
Pine Suarez, deposed president and
vice president of Mexico, after Pro-
visional President Huerta had assur-
ed American Ambassador Wilson of
the safety of his prisoners from just
such attacks, created painful i'm
preston in administration circles
here today.
When the first feeling of surprise
had passed 1t was realized by offic-
ials that this last tragic event had
added greatly to the gravity Of the
situation and undoubtedly had plac-
ed an additional strain upon the al
ready tense relations between this
government and that in the Mexican
capital. Still, as President Taft him
self declared, the event in itself was
not sufficient to demand any de-
parture from the policy OF strict
non-intervention. which, SO far, has
governed his administration.
Probably the Immediate result
will be to hasten the military and
naval preparations in order to have
the soldiers and sailors and marines
ready to answer a call for instant
embarkation II further develop
ments in Mexico should demand
their employment.
The one danger to be apprehend
ed, which almost certainly would re-
suit in the launching of an army of
invasion, would be the commission
of some act or acts in Mexico that
would endanger the lives of foreign
citizens and Americans, for, having
assured the diplomatic representa-
tives in Washington OF the DISPOSE
tion and ability of this government
to protect their nationals in Mexi-
co in the same degree as Americans.
the government has assumed an OBJ
legation that. cannot be ignored.
Therefore. any attack upon the
Americans or foreigners by the tacit
consent of the Huerta government,
or even the exhibition towards them
of mob violence clearly beyond the
ability OF the provisional govern
ment to prevent, probably would be
the signal for active Intervention.
The administration officials feel
that they have discharged their full
duty and exhausted their constitu-
tional powers in the orders they

Deposed Vice President, Accompany
ing in Auto, Also
Dies
WAS ON THE WAY TO PRISON
Rescue Attempted While They are
Being Transferred From
s Palace.

Mexico city, Feb. 24.-Francisco
/. Madero and Jose Pine suarez are
dead. In a midnight ride under
guard from the national palace to
the penitentiary they were killed.
The circumstances surrounding
the death OF the deposed president
and vice president Of the republic
are unknown, except as given in Of
fetal accounts which do not conform
in all cases. The only witnesses
were those actually concerned in the
killing.
The provisional president, General
victoriano Huerta, says the killing
of the two men was incidental to a
fight between their guard and a
party attempting to liberate them.
The minister of foreign relations,
Francisco De La Barra, adds that
the prisoners attempted to escape.
Neither makes definite statement
as to which side fired the fatal shots.
It is not impossible that neither
knows.
An Official investigation has been
ordered to determine the response
bility, and solemn promises have
been made that the guilty will be
punished.
Not unnaturally great part of the
public regards the official versions
with doubt, having in mind the use
for centuries of the notorious LEY
fuga, the unwritten law, which is
invoked when the death of prison
er is desired After its application
there Is written on the records,
..prisoner shot trying to escape"
Sonora Madero, widow of the ex-
president, received the first definite
information OF his death from the
Spanish minister, Senior Cologany
Cologan She already had heard re-
ports that something unusual and
serious had happened, but friends had
endeavored up to that time to pre-
vent her from learning the whole
truth.
Soon afterward, accompanied by
his brother, Jose Perez, and Merce-
des Madero, a sister of Francisco,
Sonora Madero drove to the peniten-
tiary, but was refused permission to
see the body of her husband. Sonora
Suarez also was denied admittance
to the mertuary. where physicians,

in accordance with the law, were
performing an autopsy.
In contrast to the widow, whose
grief was of pitiable silent char
acter, Mercedes Madero, a. beautiful
young woman, educated in Paris,
who has been a brilliant leader of
society since the revolution of 1910,
was dry-eyed and tigerish in her
emotions BY the side OF the two
women whose husbands had been
killed the girl hurled accusations at
the officers who barred the entrance
"Cowards! Assassins!'' she called
them, her voice pitched high. The
officers stared impassively.
you! the men who fired on a
defenseless man! You and your SUI
perior officers are traitors!"
No effort was made to remove the
women, nor did the officers attempt
to silence them. Sonora Madero con-
tinued to weep and the girl did not
cease her hysterical TRADE until the
arrival of the Spanish minister and
the Japanese charge, who came to
offer their services.
The tragedy occurred shortly af-
ter midnight. Madero and Suarez,
who had been prisoners in the ma
i
tional palace since their arrest on
Tuesday last. were placed in an au-
tomobile, which was accompanied by
another car and escorted by 100 rur-
ales under the orders of Command
ant Francisco Cardenas and Col. Ra-
fael Pimiento.
With instructions not to outdis-
lance the escort, the cars moved
slowly. No incident occurred until
they had reached a point near the
penitentiary where, in an open
place, the guards attention
was attracted, according to the
official version, to group of
persons following. Shots were fired
at the escort out of the darkness.
The rurales closed in and ordered
the prisoners out of the car.
Thirty of the guards surrounded
the prisoners, while the remainder
disposed themselves to resist an at
tack. About fifty men, some afoot
and some mounted, threw themselves
upon the detachment guarding the
cars and the exchange of shots last
ed twenty minutes, when the attack
ing party fled. The dead bodies of
Madero and Suarez then were found.
The body of Madero shows only
one wound. A bullet entered the
back of the head and emerged at the
forehead

Tense RELATIONS STRAINED
NEARLY TO BREAKING POINT

have given or planned for the prep
aration of sufficient military and
naval force to insure d successful
naval entry into the Mexican CAPT
tall If necessary. It is practically
certain that beyond this point the
executive would not proceed, except
upon direct instru ctions from con-
gress, as the exhibition of military
force beyond the sea-coast towns Of
Mexico might be regarded as an act
Of war which, under the constitu-
ton, can be directed only by con-
gress.
To secure this direction probably
1t will be necessary for President
Taft to communicate with congress
through special message reciting
the recent events and existing con-
ditions in Mexico and asking for in
structions.
Secretary Stimson and Major Gen.
eral Wood made no change yester-
day in the programme. of concentra-
ton Of troops at Galveston These
orders called for the dispatch to CAL
weston OF the elements that make
up only one brigade of troops, name
ly: the Fifth brigade, Second d.
vision. commanded by Brig. Gen.
Frederick A. Smith. and comprising
the Fourth, Seventh, Nineteenth and
Twenty-eighth regiments of infan-
try; D company, Second battalion
engineers; field hospital and ambu-
lance corps No. 3, one signal COM
pany from Fort Leavenworth; the
Fourth mountain battery Of field ar
tillery and three pack trains. These
troops should all be in Galveston by
the end Of this week.
Two other brigades OF troops are
under preparatory orders to entrain
for the Texas seaport and as indicat-
ed by President Taft in his state
ment yesterday these, or two other
brigades, II 1t is decided to make a
change in the composition OF the
force, doubtless viii be directed to
start almost Immediately.
1t also is possible that orders will
issue eventually to the Fourth cav
airy brigade to rendezvous at CAL
weston, but as these troops are now
all together in Texas, engaged in inn
portant patrol duty for the most
part along the border and generally
within easy reach of the seacoast.
probably their orders will be the last
Ito be issued. This brigade is COM
manded by Brig. Gen. Tasker H.
Bliss and comprises the Eleventh
and Fifteenth cavalry.
Already three battleships are "
ing In the harbor Of Vera Cruz, a
force quite sufficient to hold that
port If it should be necessary and
the remainder OF Admiral Badgers

that point and Vera Cruz within

pened along at the time and calling
