CITY QF MKXIOO, April 4.—No other
event holds as much of speculative inter-
est in the Mexican political sitnutiou as
the arrival here of Francisco Leon de la
Barra after an absence of four sod one*
^ half months. All sorts of predictions as
Sto his future part in national affairs are
being made, according to the light in
which the maker views the local situation,
but in the main there are expectations
that Senor de la Barm's influence will be
of benefit.
Even the members of the Progressive
Nationalist party, the men who sent the
cabled dispatch to the absent ex-President
advising him for the country's good not
to return to Mexico, do not cm end that
he comes with the purpose "itlng
new difficulties for the Ai.
Their tear is that his name will ue a
rallying cry for the powerful discontents,
among them the church party. The influ-
ence of this party In Mexico is difficult
to determine. Political party life in Mex-
ico is, as a matter of fact, generally im-
possible fo predict for any period of time,
for the plain reason that there have never
previously existed free political organiaa-
v tiena.
COMMANDS HKKPUCT OF ALL.
While popular support for one Hlleglnnce
'or another, however, is as yei a matter of
the personal popularity of the leaders,
SSenor da la Barra has been differentiated
from the tohers by his ability to command
a continuous' altitude of respect on the
part of Mexico at large. Whether from a
oense of fairness toward Francisco Ma-
Jero when the latter was making i.dp po-
litical campaign that preceded his formal
election to the presidency, or from nn
astute sense that the future held possi-
bilities of more lasting pre-eminence In
his country, Senor de la Rurra declined
the nomination as an opposition candidate
which the Catholic party tried to force
upon him.
When, two days previous to his aepar-
tore from Paris on his return to Mexico,
the members of the Progressive Constitu-
tional party, all known as intimates or
the Madero' administration, sent, the mes-
sage warning against his return, the pub-
lication of that communication a reused a
protest which wss in no sense confined to
the Catholic party. The students of the
National T'niversity s allied schools, nn
erratic hut Influential political clement,
were anion*? the loudest In their denunci-
ations of the action. Praise for the past
record of the returning ex-President rnn £
onlr less loudly than denunciations of the
sentiments which Inspired the warning
cablegram. President Made.ro. quick to
senvp the current of popular feeling, has-
te u d to eharnctcrlze the act of his party
j-K'intes as Ill-Judged and to add his
-mi rihution to the praises of the man
who luul helned maKe him President
J WAX COMING INTO FAVOR AGAIN.
I laving been nn official representative
of the Diaz regime, however, the men who
•ire most blindly attached to tho results
;»r the M.ulero revolution hold that Senor
de la Barra can never represent any other
element in Mexican politics. Months of
revolutionary turmoil since the accession
of Francisco Madero have produced in
nan? quarters a revulsion of feeling which
is elevat.insr the memory of President Diaz
into unmistakable favor. Such feeling is
likely to redound to Senor de la Ij.irrn s
benefit, and it s^erus likely that in the
bourse of ordinary events he may be
looked to as one <»f the future favorites of
popular confidence.
It may, at the same tlm*. be a reason-
able presumption that he is too old a man
in politics to permit the wine of personal
popularity so to enter his head ns to
wrongly affeet his actions. By those who
claim to know Senor de la Barra best it
is predicted that his activities will be de-
voted to bringing together the warring
• factions, with the object of giving back to
Mexico (he conditions of peaceful security
which are its most crying n^ed. They
contend that he will powerfully restrain
any ill-judged activities on the part of en-
thusiasts ami convert such support into n
power which, while 1t may eventually land
Hit* snfely in the presidency, will give Its
first attention to establishing order and
givin" Mexico another chance to demon-
strate that It can, in some way, rule it-
self
OROZCO AND ZAPATA.

call forth annular respect upon a ground
that had hitherto been neglecteu. They
chose to make the announcement at a
time when the federal government had
practically acKi>owledged that It was uu-
able to offer any such guaranties.
While the ability of Zapata to make
good his promise may be open to some
doubts, it appears that Orozco has . from
the first been able to qualify as a popular
protector in Chihpahua. wTHch bespeaks a
radically differing state of affairs in tbe
two sections of the republic. The 4»tate<
of Puebla and Morelos are peopled with
the folk of the "old Mexico." A dozen
generations of exploitation, witnesses of
succeeding regimes <>f banditry and alien
inexperience to established popular au-
thority, produce a rate in whose Imagina-
tion there can linger no image of even
annroxlmate republican rule. In action
they are not, unlige the American back-
woods mountainer, who settles his own
questions of justice and keeps a gun in
readiness for the advancement of his per-
sonal interests. Unlettered and out of
touch with the rest of the world, the Mexi-
can backwoodsman needs no eiptain to
lead him on forays for plunder. Taking
away both Zapata and the pressure of gov-
ernmental authority, conditions in Puebla
and Morelos would probably be very Utile
different from what ther now are.
PECRET OF OROZCO'S SUCCESS.
But Northern Mexico breathes a differ-
ent air. Its people, peon and landlord
allite, have lived In the saddle too long
and felt the freedom of the open spaces
too long not to have developed a different
individuality. Careless of the polish of
civilization, of which they know much
through contact with the busy life across
the Rio Grande, they yet have a broader
sense of genuine liberty and are more
amenable to authority of their own mak-
ing. Physically, ns well as mentally, they
differ from the south.
They have more money, better clothes;
they must work harder for a living In a
more rigorous oil mate. They have never
succumbed to the curse of landlordism as
hare their southern countrymen, and the
"Chlhunhuanese" has been a freer man
from time Immemorial. Consequently,
with a modicum of liberty In Vis grasp,
the northerner knows better what to do
with it and will fight more Intelligently
for Its retention.
This has been the main secret of the
difference between the Orozco arniv and
that, of Zapata. From general down to
humblest camp follower, a difference of
history characterizes the two bodies.

CITY OF MEXICO PAPERS PUB-
LISH UNTRUE STORIES.
The Nueva Era, a Rfed-hot Defender of
the Madero Government. One of
the Offenders—How One of Its
Stories Was Counteracted.
Staff Special to The Express,
CITY OF MEXICO, April 1 (by mail).
—The intervention spectre is being' kept
in the minds of the people of this city
by some of the Mexican newspapers in
a particularly ingenious way. They have
articles declaring: thai of course tne
United States Government does not in-
tend to intervene, for Mr. Tal't has said
so very often, and, therefore, it is quite
i probable thaj ther# is nothing In the
"story which lias come to them that*—
And then follows with much detail a
story that a man high up in political
circles says he has learned that the
United States Government lias been
sending military experts all through
Mexico, getting the lay of the land, and
that quiet preparations are being made
to rush the United States Army across
the border at a moment s notice, etc.
NUEVA JSRA'S STORY.
The Nueva Era, which is a red-hot
defender of the .Madero government and
the Constitutional Progressive party, and
which has been considered an out-and-
out government organ, although Presi-
dent Madero ha-s denied that he has any
personal interest in the newspaper, pub-
lished a particularly sensational and
mischievous article this morning in its
editorial columns.
It begins by saying that certain
rumors have come to the paper whiclj
are of such a vile and despicable char-
acter that the editors "wish to believe"
they are untrue, and hope that they
are merely calumnious, and after a lot
more of the same tenor, declares that
"our information refers to something
which will fill our readers with indig-
nation." Then it continues by stating
that "we have been told ' that a certain
Congressman, known to be antagonistic
to Madero and his government, met his
followers in "a certain dimly-lighted
room" in the capital last night, and in a
low voice told them that the United
States Government, Great Britain,
France and Germany were in a con-
spiracy to overthrow Madero.
This Congressman -said, the article
got s on, that Ambassador Henry Lane
W ilson had received orders from Wash-
ington to inform President Madero that
he and Vice President Pino Suarez must
resign their offices and turn the gov-
ernment over to IVituisco de la Barra
and Dr. Francisco vasquez Gomez, and
that this demand of the American am-
bassador was to he made with tho ap-
proval and concurrence of (treat Britain,
France and Germany. The demand was
to b« made today.
This announcement by I he Congress-
man, went on the Nueva lOra, was re-
ceived by his followers with applause
and every manifestation of approval be-
cause they had been planning for a long
time to start uprisings in this city and
elsewhere to assist the United States
and other powers in bringing about, the
downfall of the government. Not one
stopped to consider the terrible conse-
quence of such acts, the article con-
tinued, or to reason that it could not
bo possible for the United States to
proceed in such a criminal and shame-
less fashion.
Then followed a deal of abuse of the
alleged Congressman and his followers
CJudascs v\lio were selling their honor
for a handful of silver"), and concluded
with this remarkable sentence:
"We must excuse ourselves from all
comment, for we cannot believe t hat
! men who call themselves our com-
patriots, who are Mexicans, could reach
such degradation.."
STORY'S EFFECT COUNTERACTED.
That article, printed in heavy black
type and given more prominence than
anything el.se in the newspaper, might
easily have stirred up a hornet's nest
here todav and started anlit'oreign riots
but the attention of Ambassador Wilson
was called to it before 7 o'clock in the
morning and ho got busy quickly, alter
condemning it as a dastardly attetnpt
to inflame the passions ol' tho people
against the foreigners and stamping the
whole thing as a monstrous lie. The
correspondent of the Now York World
saw it ea'rly, too—indeed, it was ho who
called the attention of the ambassador
to it—and he sent a cable message to
the World asking that a direct denial be
obtained from President Taft, as the
lives of Americans here might be en-
dangered if it were permitted to go
uncontradicted.
The correspondent's message was held
up by the government censor at the
cable office and it was not until it was
submitted to the Minister of Foreign Af-
fairs, and by him to I 'resident Madero
that tho message was allowed to go nn-
ceusored. That took three or four hours
and a deal of hard work and much ar-
gument with the censor, who averred
that the message was "sensational'' and
that the Nueva Era had itself criticised
the story it. gave birth to.
The World finally received the mes-
sage and its Washington correspondent
got a statement from . President Taft
saving thai the story was unqualifiedly
false and that the United States Govern-
ment had no intention of intervening.
The statement of President Taft was
cabled back to the World correspondent
and given by him to the newspapers
here.
In the meantime the ambassador saw
President Madero about the article and
made a strong protest against such
methods of attempting to arouse anti-
foreign sentiments among the people
here. It had another effect, too, for it
Heightened away a large number of
women of the foreign colonies who had
not thought of leaving before that article
appeared. They completely filled a long
passenger train which left for the
United States over the National lines
tonight. Not for three weeks have so
many gone at one time for the North.
! The foreigners here are still in a state
i of nervous apprehension, not knowing
j bom soon some trouble may come to the
1 city. The garrison here has been
I strengthened very much of late and
there are now about 8,500 soldiers In the
capital," not counting the "volunteers"
; for the defense of the city, whose num-
i bers are being added to daily.

PREVAILING STATUTE HAS TOO
MANY AVENUES OF ESCAPE.
SAYS FEDERAL OFFICIAL
HK FOR MALCONTENTS
Coming from a federal official, the state-
ment was jpade last n;/bt that unti there
arc amendments to the neutral It y statutes
there can he few arrests made in San An-
ionic of revolutionary sympathizers, and
until there is bona fide evidence of a
movement of an armed expedition invading
the territory of an adjoining or friendly
power there can be no arrests made. The
State Department at Washington md the
Attorney General's Department of the Fed-
eral Government is not giving a xreat deal
of cognizance to the issuing of manifest s.
Under prevailing conditions almost any-
one mi^ht Issue a manifesto. It isn't an
extraditable offense, neither is it ae.ytning
likely to send the author of such mani-
festo to a penitentiary. There must he a
clear violation of the neutrality laws,
either a conspiracy or an armed expedi
tion.
Uutil there is an amendment made to
tho existing statutes there is little hope,
say some of the Federal officials, of suc-
cessfully putting an end to certain refu-
gees ot' Mexico coming to this country anil
venting such grievances as they may have
against existing governments of that coun-
try. The current trouble lies at Wash-
ington. If, said this official, iian An-
touians are in earnest in their statements
that they would close the door against
certain refugees from the republic, let
them impress upon their congressional
representatives to enact a statute that
contains no loopholes and then they can
gel results down here.
Unless that Is brought about conditions
will remain Just as they are. The slogan
of the United States is that it is a free
country. It may be too free in some re-
spects. *lt is up to Congress to say what
must he and what is not going to be.
MAY RE TURNING POINT.
Federal officials here, who are con-
versant with the situation in the republic,
believe that the battle near IVrral or Tor-
re »u y. ill be the turning point In the for
tune of Mexico. If the Federals win it
w i 1. he the breaking of the backbone of
tne ieu'.'i ticn and if the rebels should
win it v ill mean continued strife.
Again the local officials point out that
with the a'd of the army and the Tet. s
authorities, the smuggling of rifles ami
.uumuirt't/fi across the border has been
reduced to a minimum and this is evi-
denced in the fact that few reports have
been received relative to the shipment of
arms- across the border. Wer^the truth
known, said one of the officials, It would
be found that the rebels have In a large
measure obtained arms and ammunition
from the irresponsible men who have been
enlisted in the Mexican federal army.
Then, on top of that, the forecast is made
that armed bands will he rambling lu
.Mexico for months and months to come.
.Many of tho men who have sworn al-
legiance to the reb.M cause are nothing
more than bandits, who, satisfied wjh a
horse, m.ddle and rifle, a"e prepared f«»r
marauding expeditions in robbing the
helpless and menacing those who are far
removed from protection. Until this class
Is effectively srjyclehed there Is, in the
opinion of those conversant with the situ-
ation. little hope of having a lasting peace
in the republic and one that will insure
all foreigners of the maximum of personal
safety for themselves, their families and
their properties.
Allow Horses to Co to Mexico.
Puccini Telegram to The Express.
LAREDO, Tex., April 4.—Several days
ago an agent, of the Mexican government
arrived here and contracted for 130 head
of horses and 350 saddles. After closing
the deal he was informed the goods
could not be. crossed to Mexico by' rea-
son of President Taft's proclamation. At
bis request, the matter was taken up by
UUstoms Collector Haynes with the au-
thorities at Washington, and today the
collector received instructions to allow
the exportation of the horses and sad-
dles, but that otherwise tbe proclamation
was in force. The agent, who is now
in Monterey; will return at once and
cross the liorses and saddles, which aro
for use in the Mexican army.

tain Drebin declared the fire JNits the
most severe he had ever kno-
An American newspaper correspond-
ent, who had attached himself to Dreb-
in's battery, had an exciting experience.
He had tethered his horse with those of
the officers on the protected slope of a
hill where they seemed perfectly safe.
And so they were, while the, attack was
in front, but the federals' flanking col-
umn suddenly,, blazed out with a fire
which raked the hill, every animal be-
ing killed.
FEDERALS COME UNRECOGNIZED.
That the federals attained the flank-
ing position unopposed was due to a
mistake as to their identity. They were
fired upon at first, but Colonel Porra,
commanding that portion of the field,
declared the column must be that of
Major Quevada, who was expected, and
Porra stopped the shooting. Quevada,
however, still was miles away engaged
in a skirmish of his own.
In another hour the federal sharp-
shooters bad succeeded in silencing the
rebel artillery and presently the retreat
which soon became a rout, began.
Drebin, with a rapid firer, protected
the retirement of the other gunners with
their guns and all but the mortars were
saved. The Philadelphian was nipped
twice by bullets, but his hurts were
only skin deep.
Jack Zimmerman of El Paso, a gun-
ner with Drebin, escaped while Drebin
held back the enemy. Presently the
El Pasoan came under fire of the fed-
eral flankers. Two horses which he at-
tempted to use in his flight were shot
from tinder him, hut he made his
escape on foot.
I »re!dn. the correspondent, and Ignado
'iuitorrez, a gunner, by this time were
alone. Ouiterrez was shot through tbe
bridge of the nose. Drebin turned to
the newspaperman and ascertaining that
he could hold the position for a few
minutes told him to run. The latter
made a dash of twenty yards and found
a horse secreted in a gully. He mounted
and started on a gallop down hill, but
a bullet found 1t« mark in the horse's
body and tho rider was thrown twenty
feet to a pile of rocks. He was stunned
f<»r a moment, but regaining his feet,
made for another horse wandering rider-
• ss some yards may. Tbe latter was
shot before the correspondent reached
him. At thi<* point Drebin came up
wiili bis gun and Guiterre« Joined them.
They still were under fire but eventual-
ly this « eased. The gun was packed on
a «tr.*»y horse and the weary adventur-
er* made cqr-p In safety at night,
twenty-five m>'«^ from the scene of the
fghtin*. having been twenty-two hours
without food and forty hours without
fleet).
HI BOGIE 15 NO MORE
TALK OF MAGDALENA BAY BEING
NAVAL SITE SCOFFED.
('resident Taft Will Take Advantage
of Lodge Resolution for I'robe <o
Set at Kest All Doubt on Topic
Much Discussed.
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 4.-Presi-
dent Taft's answer to tho Lofise reso-
lution ralllriR tor Information as to the
reported establishment by Japan of a
naval ba.se on Magdalena Bay in Mexico
will he designed to Ret at rest the con-
stant rumors of Japanese colonization
in North America and swill be a distinct
blow at Ihe bugaboo of a war with
Japan.
The President's answer probably will
be sent to the Senate tomorrow. t It was
denied towtRht that Senator Uodco was
acting in sympathy with tho adminis-
tration, It was admitted that the Presi-
dent will niako use of his resolution to
;iet at rest recurring reports of friction
with a friendly power.
Chairman Sulzer, of the House Foreign
Affairs Committee, after a talk with
President Taft* today, declared the
liodgo resolution was the "merest bun-
combe" and that Japan had acquired
no rights for a naval station from
Mexico.
Huntington Wilson, Ailing Secretary
of State, had a short conference with
the President about the reply to the
resolution. It became known that the
answer will ho lacking In sensational
features and at the State Department
it was said that the response would
tend generally to discredit reports of
Japanese designs on Mexican territory.
"The story that Japan." said Mr. Snl-
7,er, "or any syndicate acting for Japan,
lias acquired rights, directly or indi-
rectly, at Magdalena Bay or elsewhere
in Mexico, has no foundation in fact.
I speak artviseflly. In view of our well-
settled policy, the assertion that Japan
has acquired a base on the Pacific Coast
of Mexico refutes itself and is too r.b-
surd for serious contradiction by Mexi-
co or Japan.
"The Lodge resolution Is well under-
stood by those on the Inside, however,
it will do no harm and when the an-
swer is officially filed the atmosphere
will be cleared and we will hear no
more of Mexico ceding to Japan a naval
base on the Pacific."
