New York, April 16.—Vehemently asserting that he had nothing to do with tge death of Francisco Madero, General Victoriano Huerta, f{ormer provisional president of Mexico, issued a lengthy signed statement last night setting forth what he termed his sile of the Mexican question. Gen- cral Huerta declared that he knew who was responsible for Madero's death, but that he was keeping it as a “professional secret.” General Huerta’s statement viewed the history of the Madero ¢ revolution and his accession to the | provisional presidency, and concluded { with the assertion that ‘“my country cannot be conquered.” Sixteen mil- Yions of men, women ana children would have to be killed before Mexi- Wwould submit to an he asserted.

The former provisional president reiterated the assertion which ha made when he left Mexico last year—— that he had resigned from his po- sition only because he hoped to bring peace to his country, He pointed out that in the eight montks since that date the situation in Mexico had become *too sad for me to analyze deeply.” “Anarchy is too soft a word to call " he said.

General Huerta declined In re- sponse to questions to give any ink- | ling as to his future movements. He ' denied the report that he would go to | San Antonio, Texas, or any other point | near the Mexican border. Discussing | the death of Madero, he sald: “That is a professional secret. Law- yers have secreets, doctors have sec- vets—I am a soldier-—why should not a soldier have secrets It is not through friendship for anyone that T am withholding the igformation. Tt | is a professional duty. The time will come when my name will be vindi- cated and, as General Lee =aid of General ‘Jackson, the world will sa of me, I stood like a stone wall, sub- mititing to the ignominity and the in- sults that have been heaped Upon m i “It has been said that you betrayed the confidence of President Madero. Is it so?” he was asked. General Huerta straightened up proudly, his eyes flashed, and bringing his clenched gainst his breast, he replied: , I swear it! I was in no way responsible for his death. It has been one of the big tortures of my life. I am 'sorry to have to keep the secret. Although I am of a different race than you, gentlemen, I am a man.” Huerta's Statement. statement | Gen, General Huerta's signed was in part as follows: After fifteen months of Madero’s ill administration of public affairs, a portion of the patriotic Mexican army who were humiliated and maltreated by Mr. Madero, revolted and took possession of the government's cita- del, For ten days the streets of tho city of Mexico ran with blood. The situation became intolerable. The foreign diplomatic representatives asked Mr. Madero to resign. He did not want to accede to their wlishes. Then, some heads of the army, incited by our senators to put an end to that anguished situation, placed Mr. Mad- ero under arrest. Our congress, our senate and our supreme court of jus- tice, complying with all the requisites of the constitution of our count named me as the constitutional pre dent of the United States of Mexico, considering me as the man for the job. Mr. Madero, while being con- ducted to the penitentiary, died an unnatural death. In the opinion of some of the public in this country, I am blamed as having taken a part in executng him, I never have tried to shirk any responsibilities, and any- thing I ever did was done openly. I am man enough to stand by what I do. 1 know I am not to blame for the death of Mr. Madero. Time and history will do me justice.
