overthrow of Francisco Madero, marks the assembling of Congress to choose a Provisional President. DE LA BARRA SLATED FOR CABINET. It is considered highly improbable that Francisco de tosday la Barra will get the place, though he js slated by unanimous consent for a cabinet position. Hundreds of American residents and other foreigners began emi- their homes in various parts of the city. Many of them found their residences wrecked by shells, hit by rifle bullets. A few of the foreign residents were more unfortunate than their comrades. They opened the doors of their houses to find thal they had been partially looted not so often by mobs as by soldiers on one side or the other. Huerta and Blanquet played a lone hand in the coup d'etat. After Ma | dero had been imprisoned word was sent through the American Embassy to Felix Diaz as to what had been done, and it was very late at night before the papers were signed by the representatives of both parties. The first oficial act of Gen. Huerta was to send a note to the American Ambassador notifying him as to what had been done, and asking him to advise the other members of the Diplomatic Corps and President Taft that} the battle had been closed, thus relieving the lives and Interests of foreianers from danger. WILSON ACTS AS INTERMEDIARY. Gen. Huerta said to the Ambassador that he would appreciate it as @ favor if he would permit his office to be used as w channe) for = with the rebels in the effort to bring about complete accord. The part played by the United States Embassy {n the settlement ail the difficulties of Mexico gained for the American flag such a tribute as rarely bas been witnesred in Mexico. After the messenger from the United States Embassy, Harry Berlinger, had gone through the fire of the rebel lines to the Arsenal conveying the message of peace sent by Ambassador Neary Lane Wilson, he drove to the National Palace in an automobile bear- ing a white fag on one side and the Stars and Stripes on the other.

Huerta, the crowd outside had learned the import of his visit and the reappearance of his machine was tho signal for a groat outburst | of applause. Through an immense mass of humanity gathered in the Zocola and along | San Francisco stroct, the big automobile made its way with the Stara and Stripes flying in the wind. Group after group of the people on the streets caught up the cry “Viva 16 Americanos,” and cheered wildly. For days the entire population of Mexico City, cor foreign residents, had regarded intervention by the United States as prac- tically inevitable. Mexicans of the non-combatant class suffered divided emotions of hope and fear. Thousands, although deploring intervention by ay power, had come to the conclusion that the good offices of any nation vere preferable to the wanton destruction of property and awful loss of life which had been occurring, with neither side gaining any apparent ad- vantage.

(Special Cable Despatch to The Evening World.) | MEXICO CITY, Feb. 19.—The coup d'etat by which Madero was deposed ie pronounced on every hand to have been a fine example of “trabajo limpio,” which is the Mexican equivalent of the American expression, “clean work,’ Every one in the city knew, or thought he knew, that something big was in the alr when the firing gradually died down early in the afternoon ané automobiles, with white tablecloths flying from them as flags of truce, were seen speeding between the Arsenal, Diaz's entrenched citadel, and the Nationa: Palace. No one could find out what was stirring, and the tension grew with the passing of the hours. But at tho National Palace there was no evidence ef untoward events in the process of making. President Madero sat in his office, surrounded by several aides and members of his Cabinet, and when correspondents asked for an interview he sent out word that he begged to be excused, he was too busy. Whenever the door opened into the President's private room he could be seen sitting before a table, a great mass of papers and official documents before him. His pen was working vigorously. He seemed the same alert, quick witted executive that he had always been since he rode in triumpb through the streets of the capital almost two years ago to bis inauguration, seen to be in earnest conversation with his uncle, Once Gen, Huerta passed through the room, pausing to speak s word with the President. Gon, Blanquet, the man who a few hours later was to play the part of chief actor in the coup d'etat, came into the President's office about 1 o'clock for a word with him MANY SOLDIERS AT PALACE. Lounging about the patio of the Palace and under the “portales” or epebes of the arcade in front of tho shell-ecarred bullding was an unusually large number of soldiers—more than any that had been there since Dias hived himself in the Arsenal a week ago Sunday and began the civil war. Most of these were Gen. Blanquet’s men, who had come into town with bim late yesterday afiernoon from their camping place at Tacuba on the outskirts of the city. None knew the secret reason for the presence of Blanquet’s soldiers, At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the President was in bis private office, perusing a document at his desk. Col, Kiveroll and two or three civilians were in the room. Possibly ten persons waited in the anteroom. The, quiet of the office was broken by the measured step of soldiers and the rattle of their arms. It was Gen, Aurelio Blanquet with the squad he, had picked as his support in deposing the President, The General threw open the double doors of the private office, rev sale ing the ranks of soldiers in the antechamber to the astonished Madero, | who dropped the pen with which he was about te write his signature and sprang to his feet. Col. Riveroll leaped between the President and the troops, on bis revolv in Blanquet’s squad fired. through bis shoulder. The President was pale, but he spoke without a quiver in his voice. “Let us have no shooting,” he said, and then, turning directly to Blanguet, he added, “What does this mean? What do you want, General ASSURES HIM OF PERSONAL SAFETY. * 4 4 grating to<lay from the district around the United States Embassy to ¢ { 4 {dent Madero placed bis greatest reliance, Gen.

The plan was conceived and executed by the two men upon whom Pres!- both soldiers pure and simple, but both destrous of following, as near as they could read it, the will of the people. The arrest of Gustavo Madero, brother of the President and possessor of the distinction of being the most. cordially hated man in Mexico, was no leas dramatic than that of Francisco Madero himself. Gustavo Madero and a company of friends were seated in the Gam- brinus restaurant, one of the few dining establishments that had kep: open during the stress of the ten days’ fighting. The room was measur- ably crowded. Gen, Delgado, one of the President's closest supporters, was lunching with Madero, An automobile stopped in front of the restaurant, and from it stepped Gen. Huerta, several officers of lesser rank and some private soldiers, tratl- ing guns. Huerta strode into the restaurant, his sword clinking on the stono flagging. He walked straight ap to Gustavo Madero’s table. “You, Senor Madero, and you, Gen. Delgado, I place under arrest,” Huerta said quietly, tapping thelr shoulders with his gloved hand. Madero leaped to bis feet, protesting volubly, SAYS MADERO WILL NOT BE HARMED. “Your brother Francisco 1s no longer President,” Huerta assured him with a grim smile. “He has been deposed in the interests of peace and for | | the welfare of the nation, He will not be harmed; neither will you, But | | you are my prisoner, | repeat " | Madero suid nothing more and reached for his hat. Huerta and the private soldiers hustled Madero and Delgado through the crowd to the | automobile, Huerta rose in the machine and addressed the crowd that had gathered. “Tell your friends,” he sald, “that Madero {8 no longer President, He Will be replaced to-morrow by a Provisional President named by Congrens. H@ is safe and will not be harmed Gen, Blanquet and I pledge our words for that. But there must be no disorder. Everything has been peacefully arranged,” Then the machine started, with its two prisoners, for the Palace. HUERTA CABLES DIRECT TO TAFT OF MADERO’S FALL, now reign.

State's witness, the other charging ac- ceptance of a bribe. Sweeney, through his counsel, Alfred Talley, offered a plea of not guilty “with leave to with- draw." Justice Goff refused to accept the plea, Mr, Talley aid he had not had time to fully examine the Indictment and the pleading waa put over umtll next Monday. The same procedure was followed in the case of Patmimen John J. Hartigan, indicted for grafting, and bai! was continued In both cases. Besides the liarlem resort keepers questioned to-day, many others have been subponaed and will come to the District-Attorney to-morrow. It te ex- peoted some of these will tell about Paying monthly assessments to Duity oy other collectors. From the evidence already in hand it appears that upward of 30 saloons, hotels and amusement resorts in Harlem paid monthly “‘pro- tection” during the Sweeney regime and that many of these places did o strictly legitumate business, but the proprietors contributed to the graft rather than take a ol ye of being arrested on a “frame up.” In this connection Assistant District- Attorney Rubin, who has been investi- gating Duffyfe realty hoklings in Yon- kers, has received an official report showing that Duffy owns a four-story bullding at No. 138 Landscape ave- nue, Yonkers, in which he has an equity of about $15,000, Dufty aiso owns property at Nos, 21-23 East Radford street, Yonkers, assessed at $15,400, but sald to be worth $40,000, He owns @ house and jot at No, 19 Land- which was assessed at tod. Real estate men place a value of 96,000 upon this property, In addition, Dutty’# bank account is said by: Deputy Police Commissioner | —— Newburger to be $15,000. Assistant Diatrict-Attorney Groen, who has been working up the Harlem raft cases, had six keepers of Harlem resorts In his office to-day in anewer to summonses. These witnesses, whose identities were withheld, were questioned at length and then taken vefore District ttorney Whitman for final interroga- jon.
