Newspaper Page Text9 1 M A VOL. 34 POPULAR UD ABLE LEADER OE MEXICAN LIBERAL PARTY 10 HEAD REVOLUTION Eagle Pass, Texas, Nov. 21. "General Bernardo Reyes is coming." This is the whisper that has gone with telegraphic swiftness up and down the Rio Grande. If true, and many Mex icans assert it is, it means that ftie revolutionists have at their head a man of superior military training to any other man in Mexico, not even excepting President Diaz himself. General Reyes was once a business friend of Diaz, and is now. said to be an exile from his country. He was sent a year aro to Paris on a military mission, and since then no word oame from him until today, when the cautious words were sent from Matamoras to Las Vacas. It was reported among Mexi cans that he has already taken passage for New York, and state of Neuvo Leon, the hotbed of revolution in Mexico. Dur- ing tbe last campaign his admirers proposed his name for vice president. . VasHnstoii, Nov. 31. Belated telegrams reaching the state depart ment from officials in Mexico, men tion various revolutionary disturb ances in different parts of the coun try but all agree in one reject, and that is that the Diaz government is strong enough to repress the revolu tionlsts. Tills government is exert ing every effort to prevent illegal ex peditions from forming in the. Uuited States territury, and it is believed the federal troops in Texas are am ple to nieot any emergency which mav arise on the border line. brigadier General Ralph W. Hoyt, commander of the department of Texas, has been instructed by the n-ar department to hold troops in readiness to meet any call made by the governor of Texas to preserve neutrality on the part of the United States in connection with the revolt in Mexico.
