Mexican army The conference last. ed three hours and is believed to have paved the way to a lasting peace. At first, Chief Bule assumed the aggressive in his demands, but was evidently prepared to waive them as occasion demanded. The conditions he submitted were.
 First, that all Mexican troops should be withdrawn from the Ba- cateto mountains.
 Second, that all eXpatriated fam lies now in the state of Yucatan, should be returned to their homes.
 Third, that the government should build them churches in their differ ent villages and that sufficient food and clothing be furnished his people till at such time as they could pro cure work. and become selEsuppOrt- iLs.
 To the first Col. GaIas, who ap- pears 10 be endowed with a liberal amount oT good sense, turned b deaf ear and declared impossible; to the second he said his government could alone answer. but that he be lieved it would do what was right in the matter, and that it must be trusted to do it. In the matter of churches, the government had, ne said nothing to do. Religion in Mexico was free to all people, rich or poor alike. but that he believed if it conduced to good citizenship churches would be built for them.
 The government then submitted through Col. Galas. the terms and conditions upon which it would ac- Cept peace as enUnciated by the sec retary of War:
 First, unconditional submission to the authority of the government.
 Second, that the lives and property, of the said Indians would be re spected. and they would be protected in all the rights and privileges ac- corded to Mexican citizens under eZ- isting laws, provided, however, that for the time being, they must not go north of Ures, but must find work in the country and towns south of that district.
 Third, that all arms and ammuni- ton oI war in the hands of the ln- 6ians be delivered to the military au- tnorities.
 Fourth that emissaries should be sent to the different Yaqui bands, ad- vising them to cease hostilities and deliver up their arms.
 Fifth. that the government charged itself 10 provide all necessaries for the submitting Indians for the rest of the present month or to such time 2s work can be provided for them.
 Sixth, that the surrender of arms and ammunition shall proceed at render. notwithstanding they may hs. cyao q in belIiOu, shall be at liberty to desig- nate the place they desire to live. south Of the district of Ures. h reply. Chief Bule expressed himself as being satisfied with the terms proposed and expressed the belief that his people would accept them if enough time was given to , mite all families and parties so as to present themselves in a body. When asked by Col. Galas to name a stated time, Chief Bule said by the end of May, but ne later changed the date to June 15.
 General Lorenzo Torres, now at Torin with the main body of troops operating in the district, wired the secretary of war in substance: "I beg of you to order to be sent to him provisions and clothing for men, calico and mantas for women, also some cattle, and I further beg of you that the lowest prices be put on same They, the Indians, profess to have plenty of money. but I do not believe they have as much as they claim"
 Chief Bule asked the privilege of allowing his people to go to the town of Bacatete to purchase provisions and material to supply thek' wants which was granted on the delivery of their arms. This was necessary by the refusal of Bule to accept aid from the government pending final sur render, June 18th.
 That the Indians are acting in good | faith, is evidenced by the surrender of bands to the different authori- ties. Last night, eleven came to Hermosilla and gave themselves up. I saw them this morning at the gov ernor's office. All were comfort { ably dressed, much better in fact than the average Mexican whom theN much resemble. When inteTvfewrL OH the situation, the governor was reluctant about expressing himself. The situation, he said. was still a
