Ultimatum To Zapata.

New York Times 100 years ago today, March 11, 1913:
Governor of His State May Be Removed to Conciliate Bandit Chief.
Special Cable to The New York Times.
    MEXICO CITY, March 10.— The Government sent an ultimatum to Zapata to-day. It is possible that a new Governor of the State of Morelos may be named to replace the official against whose continuance in office the rebel chieftain has protested. Ramon Olivera, who carried the message, will probably be the man.
    The land owners of the States of Morelos and Mexico have offered to pay the Government $1,500 daily for the support of troops with which to clean the bandits out of those States. A movement has been set on foot to raise money for the Government by public subscription. A meeting has been held, at which great enthusiasm was shown.
    Gen. Diaz to-day denied the report that there was friction in the Cabinet, and said that everything was going well and that there was a good spirit among the Ministers.
    Gertrudis Sanchez, commander of the Maderista force of rurales, rose in arms several days ago at Coyuca de Catalan, State of Guerrero. Seven hundred rurales captured Teloloapam, defeating the small garrison there, committing many depredations, and carrying away ten young girls of prominent families. The rising was not unexpected, as Gen. Reynaldo Diaz stated before leaving here that he believed Sanchez would revolt.
    The probable action of Almazan, Salgado, and Radillo is doubtful. The Government states that they expressed an intention to surrender, but they continue fighting. Almazan, while revolting against Madero, was formerly engaged to marry Mercedes Madero.
    The Government reports to-day stated that the situation in Sonora was serious.
    Several uprisings are reported in that State, and American filibusters are gathering near Douglas to assist the rebels.
    Querido Moheno, an independent leader of the Chamber of Deputies, stated to-day that he knew the revolt was being fostered by a well-known American corporation. He said the men. in the field in Sonora were not revolutionists but traitors to the country. The Government states that it will send large forces to Sonora. Troops will soon be available, from the Coahuila campaign.
    Abraham Gonzalez, former Governor of Chihuahua, has not been brought to the capital, as he is wanted by the local authorities on charges not published here.
    At a heated session the Chamber of Deputies to-day passed the amnesty measure amended to include only rebels in arms before Feb. 20. The measure now goes to the Senate.
    Señor de la Fuente arrived here today and called on the President. He takes the oath as Minister of Communication and Public Works to-morrow.
    It is stated that the Orozco affair is practically arranged, except some details to be settled on the arrival of Orozco to-morrow.
