No Great Trouble Feared.
The Mexican Revolution Will Not Grow to Any Great Size.
Chicago, Sept. 21.—Richard Guenther, consul general to Mexico, was in the city to-day on the way from his Wisconsin home to the Mexican capital. Regarding the recent disturbance in Mexico he said: "The recent disturbance is indicative of nothing more serious than the doings of a small faction that is always dissatisfied. The so-called revolution will be short-lived. Before the days of railroad and telegraph such uprisings could gain some momentum before the government heard of them. Now, however, the government is able to cope with any uprising as soon as it is started."
