hUERTA TAKEN i'll
AND is MISSING
FROM HIS HAUNTS
Rebel Sympathizers Grow
Bold When Report Is Cir
culated That Dictator Has
Committed Suicide.
BY William G. Shepherd.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Vera Cruz. May 16.-General Huerta
is believed to be seriously i'll 81 Mex
leo City Though the extent of his i'll
ness is not known, he is confined to
his home and is known to have suffer-
ed a serious attack while riding in his
carriage Thursday evening. He had
been drinking and had just left the
Globe cafe when stricken.
The absence OF the dictator from his
usual haunts for three days resulted in
widespread rumors that he had COM
mitted suicide. AS soon as his Illness
became generally known, demonstra-
lions against him became more open,
indicating what has long been known,
that II is only the dominating power
of the old Indian which keeps the peo-
pie about him in subsection.
Rebel Sympathizers Bold.
! Rebel sympathizers drove openly
through the streets in cabs throwing
out Carranzaista circulars. Crowds
eagerly grabbed the revolutionary lit
erature without being molested by the
police Even the solGiers did not in
terfere until it was learned that the
rumors of suicide We're erroneous. Tie
rapidly growing menace then immedi-
ately ceased and though missing from
the cafes and the boulevards and
known to be unable to be about. the
power of the dictator still cowed those
who would overthrow him. Oliver
Hueffer, correspondent of the London
Express, arrived here today after being
arrested and deported from the capital.
1T is impossible" said Hueffer, Ito
send reliable news from the capital.
One of the members of the Huerta
cabinet told me that they did not want
journalists from the outside world In
the city.
1.-The local papers are enough the
cabinet minister told me-
Four newspapermen are still held in
jail in Mexico City, Hueffer said. He
talked with Editor Miron Of Eel Inn
parcial. regarding the imprisonment OF
the correspondents and Miron explain
ed the fact that they had been Jailed
by saying:
"The government requires hostages
to guard against the further dissem-
ination of American lies"
Confusion and CONSERVATION.
Huerta has not appeared in public
in Mexico City for three days. Stories
of the confusion and CONSERVATION
prevailing in the capital as result of
the success OF the rebels at Tampico
and Tuxpam and rumors as to the
dictator were brought here today by
refugees from the capital, most OF
which expressed the belief that the
reign of Huerta was near the end.
One of the developments considered
significant with the disappearance OF
Huerta, is the recall of General Mas
from the vicinity of Vera Cruz.
Mas Is a close relative Of the die
tator and one OF his most trusted Off
GERS. If Huerta had planned to seek
refuge through Vera Cruz, Mas would
have remained here to assist his entry
into the American lines
1t Is also declared that some OF the
members of Huerta's family are now
at Guadalaiara, which is on the road
to Manzanillo.
