The Dictator went to the Cafe Colon, where he drank until far into the night. The Dictator spent the entire day Sunday drink- Ing at the Cafes Chapultepec and El Globo. Carbajal expected Huprta to resign Monday, but the Dictator gpent the day travelling from cafe to cafe in his automobile. Resignation was ap- parently far from big mind and that evening Carbajal sent a note to Huerta, saying: “You promised to resign to-day. I believed you a man of your word. If you do not resign immediately and leave the capital I will do ao.” It was the first time any one had opposed Huerta without sacrificing life or liberty. Huerta did not order that Carbajal be slain, “My generals won'$.let me res! was the Dictator's excuse. Carbajal then appealed to the man who has been closest to Huerta and whose word is law in: the Mexican army. He went to Gon. Blanquet and urged him to persuade Huerta to resign. Blanquet believed Huerta should keop his word, Tuesday evening he found the Dictator in one of the cafes. Huerta remained obdurate and Blanquet played his strongest card. He handed his own resignation to Huerta, “But you can't resign,” Huerta thundered at his War Minister. “This is not child's play and you have a man’s size job." Blanpuet remained firm and insisted that both he and Gen, Maure would resign if Huerta remained In the Presidency, It is rumorea tnat Blan- quet even went furthe “V'll not only resign,” Blanquet is rumored to have said, “but 1 will take the army with me and my first order will be to place Victoriano Huerta under arrest.” Wednesday morning Blanquet again found Huerta. He resumed his threat to resign, take the army with him and arrest the Dictator, Huerta knew his adviser well enough to be certain he meant what he said. Half drunk, broken, Huerta signed his resignation. —_——- GEN. VILLA DECLARES FRANCISCO CARBAJAL MUST QUIT OFFICE.

It 1s apparent that Carbajal has ac- cepted Villa's ultimatum and will turn over the reins of government to the rebels. He has announced that & special committee left the capital last night on a special train for Celaya to arrange with the Consti- tutionalist leaders for their peaceful entry into the capital. The commit- teo consists of Jesus Ureta, Jose Ines Novels and Enrique Bordes Miguel, all former members of the Chamber of Deputies. It is expected they will tell Car: ranaa and his chlefs there will be no opposition to their entry into Mexico City, and will urgo that a portion of the rebel army operating around Tampico and in the State of Vere Cruz be rushed here as soon as pos- sible to preyent disorders. It is ex- pected Carbajal will name a tem- porary cabinet to-day to handle gov- ernmental affairs until Carranza comes. . Gen, Huerta's resignation was sent to Congress late yesterday afternoon and was accepted by the Senators and Deputies, after a brief debate, by a vote of 121 to 17. In the mes- sage conveying the resignation, Huerta made a bitter attack upon the United States Government and, oy innuendo, upon President Wilson. Carbajal, former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, whom Huerta named as Minister of Foreign Re- lations @ few days ay to be in line of succession, was immediately sworn in as Provisional President.
