MADERO FORCED TO RELINQUISH OFFICE

Men Believed Loyal to Mexican President Tarn Against Him and Arreat Him. President Madero, of Mexico, Is under arrest. His refusal to resign when asked to do so by the senate after he had failed to put a stop to the rebellion after ten days’ fighting in the city of Mexico, culminated In a coup in which General Blanquet took an active part, and Madero and his cabinet and family were placed under arrest and General Huerto was made provisional president. The action is said to meet the sanction of the rebel leader, Felix Diaz, who has signified his willingness to stop the fighting and to try to restore peace In the city and country. Walter White came yesterday afternoon and remained until this Afternoon. He came from Colorado Springs on the sad mission of bringing his son, Walter, Jr., back to Wilmington, 111, his old home, for burial. Mr. White was away from home when his son died.
