WABII1NOTON, Feb. S4. - Complete
orders weio Issued late coday by Secre
tary Stlmson to Major Oeneral Carter to
mobilize thj entire Second ormy division
at Galveston. Preparatory orders had
been Issued earlier In the day,
WA 81 1 1 NO TON, Feb. 24. Mote orders
for moving troops to Galveston, with the
purpose of concentrating n. full army
division there In accordance with the
policy of preparedness as outlined by
President Taft In a public speech last
Saturday night wera Issued by the War
department early today
Major General Carter, the department
and division commander at Chicago, will
be placed In supreme command.
In addition to the fourth brigade of the
scant! division, consisting of the Twenty
l.tlrd, Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh
Infantry, now In the middle west, orders
were Untied today for the preparation for
entralnment of the entire sixth brigade,
comprising the Eleventh Infantry, Colonel
A Williams, at Fort D. A. Itusscll.
Wyo. . Eighteenth Infantry. Colonel
Thomas F. David, at Fori Mackenzie,
Wyo.. and Fort Missoula. Mont ; Twenty
second Infantry. Colonel Daniel Frederick,
at Fort Ullss. Tex.
The Fourth artillery, the erond bnttnl
lion of engineers and signal corps, Com
pany D, comprising part of the sixth
brigade, already have been ordered .to
Galveston.
Tt wty not be possible to accommodate
all tho second division troops on the Fort
Crockett reservation and a number must
be encamped at Texas City, seven miles
distant, and at Houston.
Tho regiments of tho brigade are not
up to war strength. Tho entire second
division as It exists today will argregate
less than 8,000 fighters, with perhaps l.ooo
auxiliaries. Theoretically this division
should bo 18.000 strong.
Mnr Withhold llerntwillloii.
The extent to which recognition may be
extended by tho United State to the
Huerta government has not been deter,
mined. From present Indications this
will depend largely upon recommenda
tions of Ambassalor Wilson, who has
been given largo descreptlonarv authority
in tho matter. The question hi llklily to
be brought to sn. Issue very soon through
somo application from tho Huerta gov
ernment, which It Is understood la not
disposed to remain satisfied with tho
action of Ambassador Wilson In recog
nizing It as defacto government only.
The tragto events of Sunday aro likely
to bo considered.
Tlio withholding of full recognition,
however, Is not in any sense Involved In
a decision of any question of Interven
tion In Mexican affairs: President Tatt
himself has declared that ho has not
changed his policy In that icgard as a
result of the latest developments In the
Mexican capital and It remains tcue that
probably only tho extreme Jeopardy of
Americans and foreigners In Mexico
would be regarded as .sufficient for n dc-
paiturc from that policy.
Later, formal orders were prepared to
actually start the Sixth brigade and tho
'Fourth brlgado on the way to Galveston.
Orders for the movement of the Sixth
cavalry at Des Moines, part 'of the Third
cavalry brigade, also wero prepared. It
was expected that Secretary Stlmson
would Issue them later today.

recover the bodies, but It was stated this
afternoon that the American ambassador.

The tragedy occurred shortly after mid
night. Madero and Suarez. who had been
prisoners In the national palace since
their arrest on Tuesday last, were placed
In an automobile, which was accom
panied by another car escorted by 103
rurales under the orders of Commandant
Francisco Cardenas' and Colonel Itafael

With Instructions not to outdistance the
escort, the cars moved slowly. No In

to a group of persons following. Shotr
were flrnl at the escort out of the dark

tho prisoners out of the car.
Thirty of the guards surrounded the
prisoners, while the remainder disposed
themselves to resist an attack. About
fifty men, some afoot and some mounted
thtew themselves upon the detachment
guarding the rars and the exchango if
shots lasted twenty minutes, when the
attacking party fled. The dead bodies
of Madero and Suarez then were found.

The body of Suarez shows many

Of tho male members of the Madera

One Is Francisco Madero, the father, who
bitterly resented his son's conducting a
revolution In 1910 and rode ncross north
ern Mexico In an effort to overtake and
dissuade him. The other Is Ernesto Ma
dcro, the former minister of finance, an
uncle, though only a year older than th.e
lato president.
Gustavo Madero, a brother, was obliged
to submit to the fugitive law the day
after the deposition of the president and
was shot down In the arsenal.
Senora Madero and tho two sisters of
the ex-president. Mercedes nnd Angela,

Not far from the ncnltentlary thcro
are two small piles of stones some twenty
feet apart They mark the spots where
the men who a few days ago ruled Mex
ico hod fallen. Holes In the wall of the
penitentiary show where some of the
bullets lodged.
The stones were plied by groups of
sympathetic persons of the, lower class
whose curiosity early drew them to the
scene. From the top of cacti. pitiful mon
ument tonight flickered candles, placed
thero and lighted by those who thus
thought to offer the last rites of the
church to the souls of the dead. From
tho ground had been ssraped away blood
saturated corth, which was carried off
by tho morbid, seeking souvenirs.
After tho engagement on tho road to
tho penitentiary Commandant Cardenas
reported to tho military commander, who
conducted him to General Huerta.
News of the death of Madero and
Suarez was confirmed by General Huerta.
Prevlousuly It had been announced that
tho transfer from the natlonnl palace to
the penitentiary had been made success
fully. Two of the party that attacked tho
nutomohlle were killed In the exchange
of shots.
Major Cardenas and two other officers
who wero In charge of the guard of ru

Imprisoned, pending an Investigation by
the attorney general.

Francisco de la Hurra, the foreign
minister, sent an offlolnl statement to
tho foreign diplomatic representatives in
which he said:
"The department of foreign relations
desires to make known, as already an
nounced to the ambassador of tho United
States, the British minister and other
members of the diplomatic corps on
varlom occasions, that the government

consequence 'the accusation process. If
such hnd taken place, would not have
departed ono lotn from tho legal meas

"That after making this decision, the
government agreed to remove Madero
and Suarnz to the penitentiary where
they would have tho necessnry security,
consideration and comforts.
"That 1 and tho minister of foreign
relations so Informed Ambassador Wil

with tho law and that the removal of
the ex-prcrJdcnt and the ex-vice presi

reasons nfore Indicated.
"Thut it was further expected that with

has surprised the government and the im

by the government.

being conducted to the penitentiary In

which tho escort guarding tho prisoners

fired upon tho chaffeur of one jf the
automobiles which was under escort. Ihe
order was given for more sped Shortly
afterward, another group, more numer

taken to the penitentiary In accordance
