HUERTA TELLS TRIBUNE
WHY DIAZ IS NOT TAKEN
r ;
Mexico City, via Galveston. Feb. 13.?General Muerta, com?
mander of the federal forces in the capital. Mid to the Tribune cor?
respondent to-dny :
I have just returned from a tour of the city and our lines.
K-'erything- is going well. but. of course, we are hampered to some
extent by our obligation to the foreign governments to refrain from
promiscuous artillery tue."
"What forces have you?" asked the correspondent.
"Roughly, between five and six tJiousand," replied General
Huerta "We have all the men we need, but wc do not wish to
sacrifice them by charging up the narrow street1? leading to the
Citadel, which aie commanded by the artillery fire of the rebels,
i his lengthens the job, but I believe von may expect I)-a;'s defeat
ifld lurrender Of Right now at slmosl any time. Our reports from
inside the Citadel aie that he is about at *h" end of his resources.
Of course, he can itay ?there indefinitely, ?perhaps, so long as our
artillery is not allowed free play, but that game will not win for him."

DIAZ HOLDING OUT
UNDER HEAVY FIRE
i
_
Madero Adds to Big Guns, but Day's Bom?
bardment Is Without Result?Diaz
Demands His Surrender.
PRESIDENT OUTLINES HIS PLAN
1
Tells The Tribune His Only Problem Is to Avoid
Endangering Lives and Property of Foreigners??
United States Army and Navy Prepare for
Intervention ? It Becomes Necessarv.
Another day of more or less spirited, ?lit intermittent, fighting
in the City of Mexico ended last night with Diaz, the rebel leader,
still in possession o? the Citadel and President Madero still holding
the National Palace and practically ??! of the capital except the
Citadel.
The federall increased the number of their big guns Wednesday
night, and their bombardment of the rebel stronghold yesterday was
at times severe, doing considerable damage.
Presiden? ?Madero ?told the Tribune correspondent his plans
were being ileadily carried out, hut he was hampered by the desire
to do ai little damage to life and property, especially of foreigners, as
?possible. He declared it was a question of only a short time when
Diaz mu.-.t surrender or flee.
Army and navy authorities in Washington met and discussed!
plans in preparation for an invasion of Mexico, both by land and sea,
if the situation should become so grave as to demand intervention
by the- United States.
Director Barrett, of the Pan-American Union, suggested to the
President that this government invite an international commission
to study the Mexican situation and recommend a plan to restore
stabie peace to the republic.
The Cuban Minister in Mexico City applied last night to his
government to furnish special trains to take the Cubans to the
coast, and other diplomats may do likewise.
Mexico City, via Galveston. Feb. 13.?Estimating the situation*
to-night in the light of what has been observed during the last three.
? days and from what can be set down as assured information, the fair
expectation is that Diaz probably will not be taken for two or three
days yet. Should he w?*akep or the federa's adopt more vigorous
! tactics the end may come at any hour.
Americans approve the action of the Washington authorities in
j dispatching war vessels to Mexican ports and preparing to embark
! troops, so far as it goes, but they would be better pleased and more
at ease could they be assured that Washington had United States
' troops now on tre ?ray to the capita!.
Every one tries to believe the worst is ever so far as danger to
? life is concerned, and this probably is true, but the argument is made
1 that the presence of troops here, with the distinct understanding
that they were seiu for police purposes onlv. would not merely safe
j guard foreigners bul would serve the Madero government a good
turn as well.
The menace of the entry of Zapatista bandits to aid Diaz is no
more ominous to-day than before. It can be depended upon as al
i most a certainty that if the Zapatistas can pluck up enough courage
: to come into the city they will cither be for '{adero or operate inde?
pendently.
Less alarm and apprehension were manifest to-day among the
throngs of Americans who Rocked about the embassy waiting for
news ami discussing the situation. The feeling of panic which the
: Inexcusable tactics of the contestants yesterday engendered has
passed I way for the most pan Quarters have been provided for all
. refugees from the danger /one in the section of thr colony nearest
; the Citadel and from the suburbs. Scores of American families who
! were advised to quit residences where it was thought they would be
I in danger from shells or m come into the city from San Angel,
MixCOax, TaCUbaya, Coyoacan and other towns skirting the capital
, have refused to abandon their homes.
Thousands of pesons, foreigners as well as Mexicans, continue
to manifest almost suicidal curiosity as to what is going on in the
centre of the city. Even when the fire has been the hardest the
sheets as neat the Citadel as half a dozen squares have been alivft
with all classes of Mexicans, besides foreigners.
The crash of shells exploding overhead or near by sends them
scurrying to the shelter of house walls, but two minutes' quiet will
biing them into the open again, seeking for bullets and bits of shell
or casing, etc., as souvenirs.
Several retail shops conducted by Americans have been kept
open every day this week. One American with a lone woman clerk,
also an American, persisted in holding the fort to-day in a drug store
in the Hotel Jardin building all through the furious bombardment
which assailed this quarter of the city soon after noon.
Among the prisoners in Bclem prison who were turned loose
yesterday was George I. Ham. president of the failed United States
Bank, which collapsed two years ago at a loss of several million dol?
lars to depositors. Ham had since been held in Belem prison await?
ing action of the courts on charges of misappropriating funds.
Prospects at dusk to-night are for another comparatively quiet
night.
