Diaz Doomed Despite Court.

New York Times 100 years ago today, October 30, 1912:
Mexican Capital Hears That Rebel Leader Will Be Executed.
    MEXICO CITY, Oct. 20.— That Gen. Felix Diaz and his associates will be executed at Vera, Cruz in accordance with the decree of the court-martial, in spite of the order of the Supreme Court, is the disquieting rumor which reached the capital to-day. There is reason to believe that the General and his associates were placed in San Juan de Ulloa Prison today.
    President Madero will interfere no more in Gen. Diaz's case, according to a statement made by the Foreign Minister, Señor Lascurain, to-night. He said that the entire matter was in the hands of the Supreme Court, which would decide the question of jurisdiction. The President, he added, was disposed to abide entirely by the law.
    Col. Diaz Ordaz, chief lieutenant in the Diaz revolt, who escaped during the confusion on the day of the fighting, was captured last night ten miles from Vera Cruz. The force of rebels who followed him into the hills are still at large.
    With the capture of Ordaz the Government expresses the belief that the Diaz revolt is ended, but reports from various parts of the republic indicate that much time must elapse before there is a complete restoration of peace in Mexico.
