MORE PLOTS AGAINST HIS LIFE
Former Chief of Police of Mexico City
I Under Arrest and Officers Are
Watching Number of Members of
Chamber of Deputies.
Mexico City, June 8. Amid the
wildest enthusiasm, Francisco I. Ma
dero, Jr., entered the seat of govern
ment which he overturned.
The dcmonstiatlon was the greatest
which the capital has shown in a gen
eration. Business was practically
suspended and the streets through
which the revolutionary leader made
his triumphal way were gay with
flags, bunting and flowers, while from
the throats of tens of thousands came
roars of acclaim.
The noisy welcome began wnen the
great crowd at the railway station first
caught sight of the bearded face and
stocky figure as Madero emerged from
hla private car and stepped quickly
Into a waiting carriage. Shouts of
"Viva Madero" swelled into a great
chorus as the cry was taken up along
the streets leading from the railway
station throughout the city.
Madero Bows and Smiles.
Bowing and smiling right and left,
Madero was driven from the station
to the national palace and then to the
home of his father at Berlin and Liv
erpool streets. Thongs that lined the
way fell in behind as the carriage
passed, until a great, noisy but friend
ly procession had formed. Scores of
civilian societies, political organisa
tions, women in carriages and soldiers
in parade uniform moved on to the
quick-step music of the military bands.
It was a spectacle stirring and un
usual, but amid the popular rejoicing
could be seen an undercurrent of re
sentment on the part of unreconciled
aristocracy, that looked on alleat,
though not unmoved.
Former Chief of FoHee Arreeted.
Rumors of plots against the life of
the hero of the day were rife, as were
reports that secret arrests had been
made.
Antonio Vllllcencia, former chief of
police, was taken into custody. Im
munity as members of the house of
deputies is said to have stayed the
arm of the law against others alleged
to have hoen implicated in a plot, the
discovery of which was followed . by
the arrest of W. L. Dunn, an Amer
ican, at Monterey, and Daniel de Vtl
liers, a former police head. These two
men are accused of being at the head
of the plotters.
