Statement by Sub-Secretary.

presidency and leave Mexico.
Statement by Sub-Secretary.
This statement is made by Roberto
Esteva-Ruiz, Mexican sub-secretary OF
foreign affairs, who reached Vera Cruz
from Mexico City on his way to Eu-
rope. Huerta, he said, will surrender
the government to Francisco Carbajal,
the new minister of foreign affairs,
who in turn will step aside when the
time comes, for some provisional pres
ident acceptable to the Constitutional
lists.
Just when the change will come,
Esteva-Ruiz said he did not know.
The president did not make me
his c%onfidant," he declared, nor did
have much time to talk with him aft
er it vas determined that | should
leave the cabinet
Expects Resignation Immediately.
He was convinced, however, that
Huerta would lay down his power dur.
ing the coming week and ii would not
surprise him. he said. if his resigna-
ton were announced Immediately.
Carbajal. he added. was suggested
as provisional president by the Ameri-
car delegation at the Niagara Falls
mediation conference and agreed to by
Huerta'S delegates and the South Am
erican mediatOrS, while the Constitu-
tionalists indirectly had conveyed the
idea that he would be acceptable to
Carranza.
That is" explained the Mexican
sub-secretary, "Carbajal would be
a more provisional president than the
real provisional president to be NAM
ed later"
Explains Situation.
When the suggestion was first made
Villa had not indicated his willing
ness to accept Carbajal, Esteva-Ruiz
went on, and he doubted Villas will
ingness to accept him now. AS for
Zapata he had no idea that the south
ern leader would recognize any provi-
sional presidency until demands for
the redistribution Of lands had been
complied with, and be intimated that
objections to such a solution of Mex
ico's problem might come from certain
parts of the northern states.
Unless something occurs to disar
range the present plan, Esteva-Ruiz is
convinced that fighting between Fed
erals and Constitutionalists is over
This. he said, was indicated by the
evacuation of Guadalajara.
Like POrfiriO DiaZ, who fled from
his country in the hope that his going
might avert a long and costly civil
war, Huerta, according to Esteva-Ruiz
has decided TO yield to superior nun
bers. Both Huerta and General Blan
auet. his minister OF war, know tina
longer resistance is futile and woult
mean nothing more than the slaughtel
of thousands and perhaps the sackins
of the capital itself, with horrors per
petrated by a victorious army Joined
by mad mobs from the slums of tn,

Registrars Busy at Every Polling
Place During the After

The apathy which had character
lied the registration on the two Sep
tember days for entering names on the

kept moving. After O'Clock, how
ever, the real active times began, and
it showed that Saturday is more of q
popular registration day than Tues
day. The number of people appearing
at various polling places in the central
part of the city this afternoon was
comparatively large, but in the resi-
dental districts things took a BOOM
The registration places will be open
up to o'clock and will then close
for an hour. The evening hours are
Z to 10.
Tonight the registration books will
be closed and the registrars will re-
turn them to the County Commission
ers on Monday.
