were hunting him in the vicinity. T, -yy * 7 '■• yy -

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 27.The
I result of the 'election yesterday
| was as expected. It Is clear to
. day that not enough votes were
cast to elect a president. Congres
sional . candidates who received
majorities are expected to declare
themselves elected, Huerta ap
proving. Then they will declare
the presidential as distinguished
from the congressional election as
valid and ask Huerta to remain
at the head of the government,
until another election is held,
which will be whenever I Huerta
wants one. There are about 3,
--000,000" voters in Mexico. The
constitution requires V one-third
vote to make the election valid.
Nothing like this number voted.
