A
El Paso, March 21. That Francisco I. Madero, with 1000
insurgents, operating south of Casas Grandes, and General Or
ozco, with 800 men, are arranging their forces with the inten
tion of a decisive attack in case peace negotiations fail, was
announced in insurrecto circles today. It is said the cam
paign will be more vigorously carried on .in case terms of set
tlement are not agreed upon. So far, however, it is not known
that any move has been made to inaugurate peace negotiations '
and Minister of Finance Limantour's statement at Mexico City
that he is not the bearer of conditions for the establishment
of peace has caused some excitement and perplexity among
the insurrecto leaders here.
It was declared that Senor Limantour's expressions were
likely to have a disquieting effect on the insurrectos, and the
hope was expressed that later advices would put Limantour in
a, mu.cn more ireinctly attitude toward the insurrection.
