Diaz Denies Plotting.

New York Times 100 years ago today, June 28, 1913:
Huerta, Too, Says His Associate Has Not Conspired Against Him.
Special Cable to The New York Times.
    MEXICO CITY, June 27. — A sensational story representing Gen. Felix Diaz as being in a plot against Gen. Victoriano Huerta, Provisional President of the Mexican Republic, with whom he co-operated after downfall of Francisco I. Madero, Jr., was condemned to-night as a complete fabrication.
    Denial of the story was made not only by Gen. Diaz, but also by President Huerta. It was asserted that the absence of Gen. Mondragon precluded the possibility of such a plot.
