MEXICO CITY, July 16.-The change
in government whereby General Vic-
toriano Huerta turned over the previ-
sional presidency to Francisco Cerbe-
jal. has been calmly received by the
populace. Beside the demonstration
made in honor of President Carbajal
when he was leaving the Chamber of
Deputies building after taking the
oath, no other outbursts of importance
have occurred. There were a few
shouts in the streets of “Down with
Huerta!" and “Viva Carranza!" but
the police promptly intervened.
General Huerta. who remained in
the capiatl some hours after his re- '
signation, is in flight. probably on his
way to Puerto Mexico to join his fam-
ily and friends. who left for that port
a. day earlier. General Aurelio Blow

adherent. went with Huerta when he
