lUAReZ THE CAPITAL

FL Paso, Tex, May 13.-Peace nego
tiations have proceeded no further
than conferences between the Maderos
and the unofficial ENJOYS. kilograms
closed, have passed between here and
the capital Nothing Of definite nature
the peace delegates said, could be an
nounced, but their tone was more
cheerful. and the impression went
abroad that basis for reopening ne
gotiations may be reached.
Delay Of the insurrectos In taking
any steps to forttfy Juarez has been
interpreted as indicating confidence
that peace will be restored. 1t is
known, however, that the strategists OF
Madero's army have discussed plans
for defense Of the town and that the
tactical errors of Navarro will be
avoided II the recommendations OF
General Ben Yiljoen, the Boer veteran,
are adopted
Madero has installed himself in the
Juarez custom house, the building In
which Porfrio DiaZ entertained VIII
liam 81. Taft less than two years ago,
and says this building Will be the cap
itol for the present. For the third
time Juarez has been the capital OF
Mexico. Bonita Juarez first made il a
capital, and then Diaz made 1t the cap
ital for two days, and now II is Ma
dero's capital.

tions. Jose Yasconcelos was appointed
confidential agent at Washington, sue
ceeding DR.. VasQuez Gomez, now min
lister of foreign relations, and rules
were adopted concerning local taxa
ton and the entry Of goods from the
United States.
The dispatch from Washington stat
ing that supplies Of all sorts would be
permitted to be taken into Juarez II
properly entered through the custom
house on this side caused general re-
ioicing among the leaders. They look
upon 1t as a tentative recognition Of
their cause.
Exports of food through the El Paso
port to Juarez are now being made
regularly, the only requirement being
that they must be properly manifested
at the FL Paso customs house. No
lmportations from Juerez have yet
| been entered at the Ell Paso customs
house. No mail is being sent to Jua-
rez, and none Will be sent, as it is nee
essary TO get receipt for the mail,
and no one is authorized to receive
mail but regularly accredited Mexican
federal gove.nment officials.
