dero Expected to Make
a Speech
Mexico City.—No citizen of Mexico
was ever given a more enthusiastic
reception than that whjch Is now
planned for Francisco I. Madero when
he enters tbe capital. Soldiers of the
srmy which he has been fighting since
November 20. 1910, wllll line the
streets. In ins honor military bands
will play snd the police whose duty It
once was to arrest those who cried
"Viva Madero!" will Join in the ova-
lion.
Officially be Is but a private citi-
zen and therefore the guns of the gar-
rison may render him no salute, and
legally the Mexican hymn may not be
played, but all that may be done under
the law will be done by official Mexi-
:o as well as by the populace to make
him welcome.
Fearing that the presence of so
many armed men not accustomed to
the discipline of the regular army
might result In trouble, the govern-
ment officials have deemed it wise to
refuse their plea for participation.
From the station it is expected that
Madero's first move will be to go to
his home and from one of Its balconies
address the crowd. It was from the
balcony of this house that he made
the first political addres s of the cam-
paign which ended in his Imprison-
ment.

instability in the retaining walls. Tbe
pumping will be resumed Tuesday and
It is expected the water level of th*
