Today -100: May 10, 1920: Of fleeing presidents, and everyone wants Fiume


As reported yesterday, the forces of Generals Álvaro Obregón and Pablo González, both candidates in the theoretical Mexican presidential elections, entered Mexico City, but they have not fought each other, so that’s good. Supporters of President-On-The-Lam Carranza are not a factor. Carranza himself is falsely reported to have been arrested. His train is stopped but he escapes on horseback. He is believed to be hiding in Vera Cruz, where the federal garrison just defected to the revolutionists.

Reports/rumors say that Hungary will soon put in its own demand for Fiume. And that it will reject the peace treaty.
