26. Toro scheduled to enter La Paz 5 p.m., with grand display of force. No announcement of the composition of his Junta whether purely military or mixed.
La Paz superficially tranquil. Situation continues delicate and unpredictable. Labor element believed to consider themselves thwarted in their aspirations. Labor Federation still ensconced in Municipal Building. Rumors of lack of army solidarity continue. Repeated to Buenos Aires.
