President F. 1. .MjJfroi announcement
t"Uy that he wnulj leav for Mexico
'!- within two days to participate In
a rrconstrnrtion of the federal govern
ment calculated to tranquUltae tur
bulent Mexico waa the signal tonlaht
for a general tiwlm of political chiefs
and others, who feel that Mail.ro will
quietly arrange a laaunc peace and
political emancipation.
Judge Carbajul. the federal envoy,
will leave tomorrow. The provisional
aovernora. who expect to he retained
In that rapacity In the atataa of Chi
huahua. onora, Zacaleca. Coaaulla
and Slnaloa. are preparing to leave to
morrow ftr the atate capitals, to await
advices from Mexico City.
IVace Bound to Come.
"Peace Is bound to htm," Madero
luld. "I am going to work very bard.
tur demands are well known. We
want merely what Is reasonable, but
we must be guaranteed the tolnga I
am glad that 1 have been able to effect
those guarantees by peraonaaaactl vlty."
"We will continue to be warm frlenda
f the people of the United eta tea. and
ve will encourage American Invest
ments. It la not true that one of the
elotrans of the revolution haa been to
rurb the Invasion of Americana I do
not hesitate to say. however, that we
will oppose trusts and unjust In
vestors." According to a report that reached
t'nlted States Secret Service officials
here today the United States Onvera
meot haa erranted permlsalon to Madero
to pass through United states terzi
turv to Mexico City.
The members of hs provisional Cabi
net gathered and began to wonder
shout the exact procedure which la to
effect peace.
Ircalt9 Arranged by Wire.
rr. Vasques Gomes thought some
kind of unofficial understanding by
trlreruph or otherwise ahould be
eatabioiied with the Mexican covera
meot before the departure of the rebel
leader. He realises, for Instance,
that such things as a Cabinet reor
ganisation, the placing of governors
in power and other details concerning
the exact reconstruction of the federal
government aimed at by thoae who de
sire peace cannot be written Into any
agreement.
As It Is understood that MaJero Is
to go to Mexico City, where he prob
ably lirst will be received by Senor
Ia la H-irra. these two men will map
out the course to be pursued. Dr. Gomes
t. arrive In Mexico City a few days
Liter.
The first subject which. It Is be
lievrd. will be considered will ta to
effect an amicable abdication by the
present governors and the induction
t f men popular enough to restore quirt
throucbout the states.
later the proposition of a new fed
eral government will be tsken up,
lieport has It six of the elKht mem
l.ers of the new Cabinet will be Muitrr-l-ts.
but with the surgestlon of the
rebels of a man like Itvneral Irons airs
Sal.ii. an officer In the federal army,
fur the MlnlMry of War and practical
ly the choice today of Oemeral Rascona
for thit post, there will be little dis
tinction between out-and-out Mader-1-tn
and what Dr. Gomes styles the
'new progressive party."
Change of Cabinet Complete.
One thing Is certain. Of the mem
bers of the present Cabinet, only
(-en or De la Barra will remain after
rcvonstructlon days. The paaslng of
J se Yves IJraantour. the Minister of
Finance, for many years a world figure
in Mcxtco's economic development. It
is said, la In line with his personal
wlja.
1'r. Yaaquex Gomes will occupy some
post in the Cabinet, perhaps the port
folio of Ctobernarlon. but It will only
be for a short time, as be Is expected
to be the candidate for Vice-President
with M ul.To aa President In the coming
presidential election.
Opinion here tonight seems to be
that the armistice will be prolonged
while Diss Is In office and later until
amicable relations are established be-
onl doubt. On the provisional gov
ernors will devolve the tssk of keeping
insurrectos from beginning little revo
lurions of their own. but the combined
Influence of Insurrectos and federals
will be concentrated In keeping the
country quiet.
Mexico is scrutinizing most carefully
the biparty system In the United States
end I la Barra will use his Influ
ence for the adoption of American
electorial reforms and methods. 1
RFBIXS ARE KEADV TO MARCH
If Ncjo.atlone rail, Tbey Will Be
siege Chihuahua and Mexico City.
JCARKZ. Max.. May IS. If. by any
rXance, the present plans for peace la
Meitco fall, within 11 hours of that
time Mexico City Itself win be cut off
from a.l outside communication and In
vested by the Insurreeto army. The
in .t merit of Cl.lhuahua City also will
follow wthtn a day or two.
i!o rsmpi.t. are the further war plans
cf lit Mexican revolutionists ax 4 sa
confident are the leaders la their abso
lute certainty of success, that the flat
statement was made at Madero head
quarters todsy that a slip In the nego
tiations would be followed quickly by
the severest blow yet dealt to the fed
eral government and that the siege of
Mexico City and Chihuahua would b
pushed relentlessly.
The rive-day armistice proclaimed
last night explicitly provides for mobil
isation of troops at suitable camps In
territory controlled by either side. This
applies to th State of Chihuahua.
This morning a force of ! Insur
rectos left Juarez to guard the Mexican
national lines stretching toward Chi
huahua. Already between and 0
of the federate captured at Juarez have
gone to work with the repair gangs
along the lines of the Mexican National
and the Mexican Northwestern. Within
two days close to a thousand Insur
rectos will be moved from Juarez to
the new base at Casas Grandee, aug
menting the rebel forces already sta
tloned along the railroad and with
the force now south of Chihuahua, a
force of fto men. well supplied with
field suns and rapid nrers and with
their baa of supplies well guarded,
could be thrown around Chihuahua
within a short time.
A garrison of about 500 will remain
at Juarez, but Casss Grandes will be
made the moblllsatlng point for any
possible campaign against Chihuahua
City.
Should thare be no break In the plan
for peace, the movement southward of
the Juares army will bring a large pro
portion of the troops near to their
homes when orders some for dlsbaad
ment. All but a few of the forces un
der Orozco, Villa. Blanco and other ln
surrecto leaders, making up the North
ern army, have their homes In Northern
Chihuahua, and thus the Inevitable dls
andment.of the forces that have aided
in winning the Mexican revolution will
be greatly simplified.
ELECTION REFORM PROPOSED
Diss Cabinet Draft Rill Giving
Voters ReaJ Power.
MTTXIOO CITY. May IS. During tha
recent diplomatic exchangee between the
government and the leaders of the rev
olution, the government drafted a new
election law for submission to tha Cham
ber of Deputies and under which tha
election of Diaz' successor will be held.
The messure. so fsr as Is consistent,
follows the French law. under which the
national executive la elected for seven
years by an absolute majority of votes
by the Senate and Chamber of Deputies
united In a National Assembly or Con
gress. Heretofore the Mexlrsn national
government has conducted the elections
through the local Mayor, who presided
at the rollings. The Mayors passed on
the eligibility of voters and counted the
ballots. Their powers, linked with their
obligations to the national administra
tion, caused the government to be ac
cused of fraud.
Under the proposed law the Mayors
must keep their hands off. Candidates
will conduct their own campaigns and
their representatives will control the
registration lists and count the ballots.
For th benefit of those who cannot
read, the name of esch candidate will
be presented In an exclusive color. Thus
they may scratch off the colors In which
the names of opposed candidates appear,
leaving only the color and nam of th
votaC choice.
ARMT WILL BB REORGANIZED
Madero W 111 Substitute Voluntary
for Conscription -System.
JUAREZ, May IS. Complete reor
ganization of th Mexican standing
army, with elimination of the hated
conscription and the adoption Instead
of the volunteer enlistment plan, is
one of the cherished Ideas of Francisco
L Madero, Jr., and bis advisers
Nothing definite along this line has
been planned, but the organization of
the United States Army will probably
furnish a basla Enlisted men will re
ceive better pay. the commissary and
medical departments will be vigorously
overhsuled. modern field guns will re
place the antiquated cannon that still
form a part of the artillery branches
of the service, and In every other way
efforts will be mad to reform the pres
ent disorganized troops Into a compe
tent, loyal, thoroughly drilled and
thoroughly equipped army.

RESIGNATION NOT ASKED
Mexican Vice-President Predicts
Dial Retirement 'Will Hot End
Revolution, bat Federal Army
Mnst Fight It Out.
PARIS. May 11. "I believe that th
rslg-tmtion of President Diaz will not
really atop th revolution."
This declaration was made this even
Inr by Vice-President Corral, of Mex
ico, whose resignation, along- with that
of Prraldent Dlas. has been proffered by
the Mexican administration as a con
cession to th revolutionists. Senor Cor.
ral has been ill several days, but he
consented this evening to srtv a state
ment or the situation In his country.
He said h bad received no official ad
vices or personal messages from Presi
dent ilas covering- the latest develop
ments in Mexico. Until he heard di
rectly from the President he would
make no decision about resigning.
Nevertheless, he Intimated that he fore
saw a possibility that the condition of
his health might necessitate his retire
ment. . Th Vice-President showed Intense
Interest in press dispatches bearing on
the peaoe arrangementa. After their
perusal he exclaimed:
"Let mo say this again th retire
ment of President Dlas will not end the
revoltuion. because Madero's authority
exists only tn the Stat of Chihuahua.
In the other disturbed provinces he has
no real Influence. I believe It almost
certain that th revolution will con
tinue throughout the affeoted areas, at
least In modified form."
Asked how an end could be put to the
war, the Vlae-Presldent said the only
way was for the federal army to pursue
the rebels persistently and constantly
until they finally conquered them.
Regarding th situation, he was of
the opinion that it was a critical mo
ment for a gxea-t country.
"Not only is It a moment of gravity
for the Mexicans themselves," he said,
"but for foreign nations like the United
Btates, France atid Great Britain, whose
heavy financial Interests, as well as
brotherly concern, make them earnestly
wish that oho future would bring
peace."
Senor Corral said he had faith in the
plans of General Reyes for reorgani
sation of the Meoctcan army.
