REYES DENIES CONNECTION Will I Brands as Equally False State ment of Alliance With Diaz and Magoon SAYS MADERO PROVING GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT Claims he left Mexico Because His Life Was Endangered at Election Time NEW ORLEANS, Oct 6. Gen. Bernardo Reyes, tor years the idol of the Mexican army, long a political leader of that republic and recently a candidate for the presidency against Francisco I. Madero, Jr., gave' em phatic denial tonight to the publlca- tlona connecting him with the organ ization of a new revolution in Mexico. Gen. Reyea arrived here this afternoon from Havana, and will leave tomor row for San Antonio, Tex., where he probably will establish his home. In a statement given to The Associated Press tonight. Gen. Reyes admits he will continue to manifest an active In terest In the political affairs of Mex ico but brands as absurd the stories that he is planning the establishment of a revolutionary Junta In San An tonio. He was equally emphatic In branding as absolutely faJse the state ments that he has formed an alliance with Oen. Porflrio Diaz and the Mex ican socialist leader, Flores Magoon. A combination with the latter he says was "Impossible." Why He Left. "With a manifestation of deep emo tion the aged former military leader of Mexico declared he was forced to flee his country on the eve of the elec tion which Madero had falsely de clared would be free because his Ufa , was hourly endangered as a result of ! the growing conditions of anarchy ! fostered by the recent revolution. "The people of Mexico are grensly , disappointed In Madero," said Oen. Peyes. "The revolution was success ful because Madero had solemnly and i Impressively declared for tree elec , tlona and because he bitterly ar raigned the ctentlflcoa. Now the pao j ile realize that he has failed In these' promises for thev were not given a free election and Instead of destroying the clentlflpos ho has Joined hani with them. After reciting the Incidents of Sun day, Sept. S, when a demonstration, drganlzed In his honor in Mexico City, was forced to disband after being at tacked by a mob of several thousand people, and the general himself was stoned when he attempted to address his adherents from a second story balcony, he said the government failed to give him adequate protection at anv time thereafter. Oen. Tteves laughed at the story emanating from Mexico City, telling of the supposed shipment of a cargo, of arms and ammunition from some American port tn Ballna Cruz. "The best evidence of the untruth fulness of that atorv." enld the gen eral, "Is thnt. no such shipment will ever reach Snllna Cruz or anv other port."
