HUERTA FIRES ALDAPE
CABINET MINISTER SUGGESTED
THE PRESIDENT SHOULD RESI6N
- a
Action in Relieving Him of His Official
Duties Is Further Notice of Defiance
to the Government at Washington In
Demanding Resignation.
By the Associated Press.
Mexico City Nov. 16. What doubt regarding Gen-
feral Huerta's intentions with respect to compliance with
the American demands for his own elimination was re-
moved from the minds of most Mexican and foreign resi-
dents by nis peremptory dismissal today of Manuel Garza
Aldape the minister of the interior who was looked upon
as the head of Huerta's cabinet.
Manuel Garza Aldape led that group of the cabinet
which held the conviction that it would be best to accede
to that portion at leaat of Washing-
ton's demands which meant the total
abandonment of power by the pro-
visional president and he ts said to
have been the only one with suffi-
cient courage to discuss the Interna-
tional situation frankly with his
chief. Tt was he who called at the
American embassy recently and In-
duced Nelson O'Shaughnessy the
charge d'affaires to send to Wash-
ington his appeal for the reopening
of the negotiations. Senor Aldape'e
resignation was demanded at a cabi-
net meeting at President Huerta's
house early this morning. Huerta Is
said to have reiterated at this meet-
ing the statement that he would not
resign that with him It was a case
of life or death and he was disposed
to play out the game.
Intriguing for Presidency.
Certain Intimate friends of General
Huerta have been Indicating to him.
tt Is said for some Lime that the min-
ister of the Interior was intriguing for
the presidency and that the cabinet
had become divided Into campa.
Those who opposed Aldape Included
Querido Moheno minister of foreign
affairs; Blanquet minister of war
and Maria Jose Losa no minister of
fomento.
Other Minister Acted.
It Is stated authoritatively that
these three ministers assured Oenersl
Huerta that unless the minister of the
interior was removed they would re-
abro. ' Manuel Garza Aldape was des-
ignated Tonight by the provisional
president to go to Europe in fulfill-
ment of some undetermined special
mission. Benor Aldape'e friends think
It possible that he may be named to
succeed Francisco De Ia Barra aa
minister to France.
De La Barra has been ordered to
Japan aa special ambassador to pre-
sent the thanks of the Mexican gov-
nrnmen for the participation of
Japan in the centennial festivities
under Porfirio Diaa In 1ft 10. It was
on this m1salon that FelOc Dtas was
proceeding when he decided to return
to Mexico to take part In the
elections.

Just as the aun was sinking behind

General Pancho Villa the Constl-

Juarex from the federals Saturday
accomplished hla coup by a fake mes-
sage which he sent to General Fran-
cisco Castro over the federal telegraph
wires. In the message he stated that
he was sending the Twenty-third in-
fantry from Chihuahua to Juares to
be the permanent garrison at the
town and signed the message as if It
came from the governor of the state.
General Csstro did not suspect the au-
thenticity of the measage and gave
out the report to newspaper men that
the battalion of infantry wnn coming
to the border town.
Took Chaffer of Telegraph Office.
Villa had taken charge of the tele-
graph Office before the measage Waa
sent and when he and hla troops
reached Gallegos a station on the
Mexican National line they again
captured the telegraph office located
there arresting the operator and plac-
ing their own -.operators at the key.
From Gallegos they sent another
fake message to General Castro stat-
ing that the Twenty-third troop train
had arrived there on Its way to Jua-
rex. Still the fedérala In Juarex did
not suspect the genuineness of the
message. Villa's force kept the fed-
eral commander notified of the move-
ment of the train at each station on
the line am? so were Ible to enter the
town without any suspicion as the
federals thought It waa the train car
rying their own regiment.
