FRESH REVOLUTION
BREWING in MEXICO
New Movement, Presumably by Felix Diaz, Gives Deer
Concern to Washington Cabinet Discusses Situa
ton, but Awaits Report Of General Scott

Washington, D. C.-While immedi-
ate interest centers naturally in the
situation as to the troops in Mexico,
there were renewed indications about
the State department Saturday that a
wholly different aspect of the Mexican
problem was causing concern. That is
the movement supposedly headed by
Felix Diaz, nephew of the former
Mexican dictator, for new revolution
against the de facto government.
None of the information upon which
the uneasiness rests has been disclosed.
1t is known, however, that several
Mexicans in the United States are be-
ing closely watched and it seems possi-
BILE that some of the anti-American
feeling in Chihuahua state, which has
met the troops pursuing Villa, may be
attributed to this movement.
The Diaz government, it is said, has
the backing of various elements of
Mexicans, both in Mexico and this
country. AS viewed by the State de-
partment, it is understood the activi-
ties Of these persons are the more
dangerous because they are wealthy,
while the de facto government is in
volved in snarl of financial compli-
cations which would be hard to over
come even in times of complete peace.

IRISH IN REBELLION
Many Killed in Uprising in Dublin.
Widespread Plot Believed Nipped.

London - With IL persons killed
and 10 wounded as the result Of an up
rising in Dublin Tuesday, all IRELAND
is smouldering volcano.
Although the capital was almost
completely isolated by the cutting o.
telegraph lines when the rebels seizet
the postoffice, the government pro.
fesses to be in control of the situation
The most sanguine, however, will moi
predict what even the next hour will
bring forth.
Augustine Birrell, chief secretary
for Ireland, who made the first an.
nouncement Of the trouble in the house
of commons Wednesday, could give
few details. The government knew,
he said, that about dozen sol
diers had been killed, that arrests
had been made, and that troops were
on the way from The Curragh to Dub
lin. 1t did not know the number Of
rioters killed, or the parts of the city
that were still in their possession.
So far as known, the trouble started
at noon on Monday in the center of
Dublin. A mob, composed mainly of
members of the Sim Fein society,
seized Stephens Green, a large park
near the Royal university; the post
office on Sackville street and several
houses Immediately adjoining.
Troops, hastily summoned, and loyal
volunteers sought to expel the rebels,
who meanwhile had cut all the COM
munication lines. In the fighting that
ensued two policemen and two citizens
were killed, together with several SOL
diers.
It is the connection between the re-
volt and the attempted landing Of Sir
Roger Easement with German arms on
the Irish coast that makes the situa-
tion ominous. It is believed now that
there is vast conspiracy afoot
through all Ireland and that the arri-
val Of Sir Roger had been set as the
signal for general uprising.
The official statement, however, as
serts that the disturbances were local
lied in Dublin. Reports received from
Cork, Limerick, Ennie, Tralee and
both ridings Of Tipperary, where the
Sim Feiners have been especially
strong, show that if any revolts were
planned they failed to materialize.
The prompt seizure of Easement and
the sinking Of the German auxiliary
with her cargo of arms are believed to
have disorganized the plans of the
leaders.
None of the Irish leaders here are
believed implicated in the plots. Both
Sir Edward Carson, who is one of the
strongest members Of coalition govern
ment, and John Redmond, the Nation
alists chief, unite in condemning the
acts of rebellion.

Early Irrigation Started.

klamath Falls Water was turned
into the Griffith canal Saturday by the
Reclamation service. This is week
earlier than the water will be used
generally over the project, but it was
necessary to supply the sandy lands in
the Sand Hollow and Malin districts,
as they are blown badly by the strong
April winds.
The water was turned in from Lost
river, and would otherwise have vast
ed away through the diversion canal to
klamath river. Heretofore the Malin
ranchers have suffered considerably be-
cause water could not reach them ex-
cept through the main canal, but the
enlarging and extension of the Griffith
canal last summer has brought great
relief.
