assigned them under the agreement for an
armistice. The Caceres adherents in
Callao have not yet submitted, but there
is.no disturbance there. The wife and
daughter OF Caceres took refuge in the
British legation. They will probably be
escorted to Callao by British guard and
will then be placed on board a British
man-of-war.
The provisional government has issued
this manifesto:
Called upon when patriotism forbids
hesitation, we have accepted our mission,
convinced that we have only to respect
the rights of all with frankness and self
denial.
I'VE assume that the o Jet OF the pro-
visional government is peace, conciliaton
and principally to re-establish the public
confidence in the authorities and maintain
peace and order in the meantime.
The constitution and laws in force are
such as should govern a republic, but to
realize the purpose OF the provisional gov
ernment we require the assistance Of all.
We implore all natives and foreigners to
assist us.
1.-The terrible events which have oc-
Cured in Lima, and the solemnity of the
moment, merit our best efforts to insure
peace and order and justify us in the be-
lief that every citizen will uphold and
help US in the work of reparation.
"We commence our task trusting to
merit support in realizing reforms which
shortly will be offered the nation.
(Signed) manuel Candamo,
Ricardo Espencza,
Luis Felipe Villaran,
Enrique Bustamente y Salar,

The signers of the manifesto are the
provisional government and the junta
representing both factions in Peru.
