In an ad rNi before the Commonwealth Club to night. Baron de Eatournallrs de Con stant, the distinguished French acholar who ha been advocating the cause of International conciliation during an ex tended tour of this country, declared that "war with Japan wouia be not only a crime bat filly, with no end. no result exrept revolution and ruin." The text of his address was "War or rear With Japan."

MEXICANS HOLD PEACE MEETINGS De la Barra and Gomez Have Conference in Wash ington SETTLEMENT MAY RESULT Madero Representative Does Xot Ask Immediate Retirement of Diax. . Cabinet Changes Alone Will Xot Suffice. WASHINGTON. April 4. An im portant peace conference, the first meeting between the Mexican Ambas sador here and a representative of the Mexican revolutionists, was held In Washington Sunday. March 26. the news of which, hitherto a nlatter of much secrecy, was obtained tonight by the Associated Press. Senor de la Barra, ex-Ambassador from Mexico to the I'nlted States. It was learned, conferred with Dr. Vas qtiex Gomez, head of the confidential agency of the revolutionists and the authorized representative of Francisco f. Madero. a few hours before Senor de la Barra departed for Mexico City. Gomes Confirms Details. Dr. Gomex confirmed tonight the de tails of the conference and a message likewise was received from Senor de la Barra defining his position. Though It took place 10 days ago, there has been practically no change In the at titude of the two parties to the con fenerce. The men met at the residence of the Ambassador and talked an hour, thor oughly discussing the situation In Mex ico. Dr. Gomez has been handicapped since then In being unable to commu nicate with Francisco Madero, either by telegraph or mail, and the latter there fore Is as yet unacquanlted with the details of that conference. A request was sent to Mexico City that, in order that peace negotiations may be initiated, permission be granted for the transmission of certain dig patches relative to peace to Madero from Dr. Gomez. It is believed the cor dial meeting,- Informal as it was, may lead to the Settlement of the Mexican troubles. Participants Xot Instructed. Each participant referred to the fact that he had -no Instructions covering such a conference and could only ex press a personal opinion, but De li Bara remarked that he thought "patrl otlsm counselled searching for means of terminating the difficult situation waicn exisiea. Senor de la Barra refused to discuss the question of the resignation of Pres ident Diaz.- Dr. Gomes has said the revolutionists would not insist on the Immediate retirement of General Diaz fearing anarchy might result If proper provision were not made for a sue cessor. - ut. uomes said whaf his party was ngnting for was participation in gov ernraental affairs. Cabinet changes alone, he said, would not suffice. He spoke of various- abuses of the courts and the arbitrary acts of Governors and other officials whlcb had led to discon tent in Mexico and emphasised that the only guarantee of the reforms would be to allow the revolutionists some power in me aiiairs or the country. Peaceable Methods Advocated, Senor de la Barra replied that the workings of political parties Dronerlr or ganized would be advantageous to the country, but they should be counten anced only when founded upon peaceable methods and In conformity with laws which afford them means to uphold their principles in Congress. There was much discussion of schemes for the modifica tion of electoral laws. Senor de la Barra referred' to the study already made of reforms of those laws and expressed confidence that they would be strictly pplled at coming elections. Dr. Gomes thought the Deonle would not lay dawn their arms until all the demands of the revolutionists were sat isfied and he wanted to know what guarantee would be given thm if they did lay down their arms. Senor de la Barra asserted that a reasonable element of the country al ready had been answered as to that through a spirit of sincere love of coun try, that the government would bring about a methodical plan of reform al ready studied, which corresponded with the desires of the public and that If the revolutionists would proceed as In Senor de la Barra' a opinion the situation de manded, he would propose in due time political amnesty. Dr. Gomes urged that If peace nego tiations were begun they be formal and be held In Washington, so that the oro- ceedlngs might be published widely. Sen- T or de la Barra aaid the government ' never would consent to such negotiations because It would amount to recognition of the belligerency of the Insurrection. DIAZ MCST GO OCT OF OFFICE Madero Says Peace Terms Cannot Be Arranged Otherwise. MADERO'S CAMP. Near Chihuahua. Mexico, April 4. A declaration that all talk of peace Is futile so long as Presi dent Diax refuses to resign, and that the recent Cabinet changes have served only to convince the Insurrectos of heir ultimate success, was made by . I. Madero. Jr. the provisional Presi ent. In an Interview In his -camp to a'v.

H Insurrecto movement was ' spreading until now the Federal troops were confined to the garrison towns, "at which the insurrectos were preparing to strike a decisive blow."' Referring to his father and Gustavo, his brother, who were reported to have .Initiated peace plans with Minister of Finance L-lmantour in New York, the insurrectionary - President intimated they had no authority to act for him.' and that he would not accept proposals not addressed directly either to himself or Dr. Gomez, his confidential agent in the United States. Madero Proud' of His Army. Madero's camp was reached after 60 miles' travel. The building -occupied by the leader and his staff is an ex tensive stone and plaster palace, which he laughingly referred to as his "cap- Itol." When the visitor arrived. Madero ' came to the front portico, attendee by I General Orozco and members of his ! staff. After a formal greeting the leader -swept his hand toward the plan- . tation, where about 1200 men were en. camped, and wanted to know if it did J not look like an army. With him were J seven Americans, including Dr. Wilson, his physician, and Oscar G. Creighton. who has been active in, blowing up j railroad bridges. I The personal appearance of Madero j Invited scrutiny. A rather short, plump man, accoutred In boots, a sweater and a suit of khaki, with a quick, decisive way of speaking when he gave orders, j Invested him with the manner of a commander. A habit of meditatively clawing his closely-trimmed beard as he spoke sug gested that he carefully weighed his words. The interview Immediately turned to the subject of peace. Revolt Forces Concessions. "Nothing has transpired since we took up arms to Justify us in laying them down." said Madero. "Mr. Llman tour has said reforms, pacifically asked, would be granted. In December, 1909, I wrote to Mr. Llmantour telling him a revolution would come if the govern ment, did not grant a free ballot- That was asking for reforms pacifically. The answer was To Jail with all reformers." "We took up arms and we mean to .fight it out. The change In the Cabi net Is something unheard of in Mexico before. It is a concession to an armed revolution. But It Is not sufficient and it comes too late. It simply Jus tifies us in our course and shows the government's Inability to crush us now. "As to the Cabinet itself, it Is some what of an enigma.- It Is an untried quantity. "Tbe only promise of note which Diaz has made Is dividing up of the big estates and selling them in small lots to the people on terms of from 10 to 15 years. The Idea Is good, but we would dislike to see Diaz put It into effect, because it would be a pretext for great speculation by Diaz' friends. It would result the same as did the appropriation of e2S.000.000 for the en couragement of agriculture, when the money went into the hands of a few men. "No, we don't want promises, be cause the government has always made promises and kept none. The only condition .on which we will accept peace is that Diaz shall step aside and declare null the election .of last year. We must be certain of a free ballot, the protection of the constitution and a guarantee of no re-election for Pres ident. He Will Xot I jay Down Arms. "I wish to repeat, and I hope the people of the United States will be lieve us sincere, we most emphatically do not Intend to lay down our arms until Diaz Is out and we are certain of free eli ctlons. It is useless for the government to try to treat with us on the condition that we lay down our arms. "You see all the men about me now. If you made a trip around Chihuahua you would see that the city Is practi cally under siege. We are making great strides, and becoming stronger and more hopeful every day. Tell the people of the United States that our triumph will be complete and Diaz will be overthrown. "The money Interests of the United States have nothing to fear. The coun try will progress more rapidly under the reforms which we will Institute and the Americans who have capital Invested here will receive greater divi dends. - We are respecting the prop erty rights of foreigners. In some In stances we had to destroy property, but we Intend to make amends tor it. Every dollar's worth of property-levy will be refunded by our government. There Is little hope for the Diaz government now. Their soldiers are growing heartily sick of being sewed up In the garrison towns. ai oi-r first srreat victory, which we expect to attain soon, our forces will be greatly augmented. The government will find It more difficult to stop our move ments. We have, sucn ireeaom mat they cannot bottle us up. We hote the united states troops will never cross our border. It would ha a calamity. We could not do other wise than regard Intervention as a hos tile act. We are able to settle our own family troubles.
