Diaz resigns as president amid Mexican revolution

Amid a national upheaval in 1911 Mexico, Porfirio Diaz resigns the presidency and Alfredo Robles Dominguez takes command of rebel forces in the capital while Francisco de la Barra and Hamon Corral announce provisional leadership. Mass crowds cheer, streets close, and a police guard clears the approach to the national palace.

Police fire on mob in front of foreign relations building

In Mexico City crowds waving Viva Madero protested in front of the Department of Foreign Relations. Police fired on the mob, killing one man. Despite a manifesto by Robles Domingues calling for order, thousands marched, gathered around the Zocalo and central streets, with factions recruiting in the Colonia Bella area.
