leaders. in an interview tonight said that
the success of the Governments intervpn-
ton was most important, as it encourages

A Battle That May or May Not Have
Been Fought.

Ell PAso, Tex, Nov. 1.-THE latest de-
velopment in the Mexican revolution is
the report that a battle occurred to-day
somewhere near Palomas, but this is only
because it was so planned and not on ac-
count of any news. TIE Mexican Consul
to-day presented to the District Judge the
names of several people living in this
country that the Diaz Government wants
arrested on charge of violating the neu-

he will not effect much. MellO decorated

prevalent rumors that Blount's report was

Unite.
TERMS OF THEIR TREATY.
Peffer Is in Favor of the Plan
OF Campaign.
HE LOOKS FOR SUCCESS AT LAST
The Fight TO Be Made on One Issue
and Other Reforms to
Follow.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 17.-There is
movement on foot for the Populists and
free-slver men to join their forces for the
next Presidential compaign. TO this end
1t is proposed that the Populists shall hold
their organization in allegiance, together
with their doctrines as to the Government
ownership of railroads, their bond loan
policy and the issuing of paper money,
which the silver men as a body have never
embraced, and under some such name as
National party, make united pull for the
Presidency and free silver in 1896. A
rumor to this effect has reached here from
Kansas, and it is said W. +. Rightmeyer
of Topeka, who was instrumental in call
ing the Cincinnati convention in 1891,
when the POpulst party was formed, had
taken the initiative in the movement for
the reorganization of the party on lines
which would command the allegiance of
the silver men.
Senator PETER, when seen by an Asso-
ciated Press reporter, admitted that the
report was true as outlined above. Re
said he was not in favor of making new
alignment until after the Congressional
election next year, when the new party
could get ready for the Presidential elec-
SiVh VI AOVot cbu ApiCocCN buC COb-
fidence in its ability to cary the country.
In the new organization the Populist
party would have the same relation as the
Free-soil and a Aboitionist parties bore to
the Republican party, and the paramount
question would be one of money. The ques-
tion now is between the money power on
gold basis and the producing masses,
advocating gold. silver and paper basis.
On that the people would divide in 1896,
regardless of former party affiliations.
This was the first step. and the Popu-
lists recognized it as good craftsmanship
to lay aside their other tenets for the time,
in order TO get the help of the silver Demo-
Gratis and Republicans in settling this
great question on which they agreed
While fighting this battle many prejudices
would be swept away. and when it was
won there would be a solid mass of voters
for the accomplishment of other needed
reforms.
PETER said he looked for success In 1896.
and the election of a Congress in 1900
which would put on the statute-books the
leading doctrines of the Populists of to-
day. So far there has been no Interchange
of views with the silver men of either of
the old parties. and he did not favor any
till after the next Congressional elections,
though some of the Populists wanted re-
organization in 1894.
