THETERMS REFUSES.
Mexican Peace ENJOYS Are Unsuccess-
full With Rebel Leader.

Chihuahua Mex, Via Laredo, Tex,
April 13.-Another peace project for
Mexico failed today when FREDERICK
Moye and DR.. 5. r. Seyferts returned
| in automobiles from Madero's camp
near Bustilos, so miles west of here
and reported their mission had been
without definite result. Francisco l..
Madero. the Insurrecto leader, refused
to conclude peace on the terms offered.
which he regarded as nothing more
than the promise already made by
President DiaZ in his Congressional
message Senor Madero reiterated his
statement given in a recent interview.
saying his position was clear and cap
able of but a single Interpretation, viz:
That he would sacrifice himself and all
he had, if necessary, to the end that
the insurrection bring about a COM
plete change of politics in Mexico.
Previous to the peace mission, Senor
Moye went to Mexico City and there
talked to high government officials,
among them, it is said. Minister Lii
mantour. His visit 20 Mexico City en-
couraged him to make the trip to
Madero's camp. Madero, himself in
his march to the town of MADEIRA,
halted to receive the ENJOYS.
The peace talk took place in the
marble hall of a great house which is
the seat of an extensive plantation.
| Convinced that Madero was firm in
his attitude, the party returned to Chi
huahua.
In one remark of Madero, the ENJOYS
professed to see hope. Just before they
left the rebel leader said:
Il am extremely anxious to see my
father and learn what promises he Sc
cured from Minister Limantour. If
he could safely reach me, l would be
glad.'
Senor Madero did not say he believ-
| ed his father had information which
| might lead to peace, but the ENJOYS
assert meeting of father and son
| seems now the only prospect of an
early cessation of hostilities.
Bandits not connected with the In
| surrectos began to operate near this
city today. A gang held up train of
| the Chihuahua Mining Co.. an Ameri-
| can concern. and took $4,000 in gold.

Skowheaan Grange.

The excessively muddy condition of
the highways upset the plans of the
lecturer for the meeting Wednesday
night of the Skowhegan Grange, but
the gathering was full of interest. A
communication from the National Mas
ter started a discussion of Canadian
Reciprocity during which Secretary
Emerson astonished the Patrons by
speaking in favor of reciprocity. r. F.
Parker and A. L. Jewett failed to
agree with the secretary. The quar-

Polo Grounds
Swept by Fire.

New York, April 1.-THE great
double deck grand stand and the right
field bleachers at the National League
baseball park were destroyed by fire
early this morning, causing loss esti-
mated at $250,000. The club house and
the center and left field bleachers were
saved and the fire, which started at
1880 A. NJ, was under control two
hours later.
Manager McGraw of the New Yorks
said that with the permission of the build
ing department today's game with the
Philadelphia Nationals would be held as
scheduled, since approximately 10000
seats are left intact in the bleacherS. If
this course is not pursued, it is believed
that the American League park will be
used
New York. April 14.-Ten thousand per-
sons stood on Coogans Bluff early this
morning and saw the National League
baseball park at 155th street and Eighth
avenue swept by a fire which reduced
three sides of it, including the grand
stand and most of the bleachers to ashes
in less than three-quarters of an hour.
The fire started in the bleachers on
grandstand at the westerly end of the
grounds and burned its way towards
Eighth avenue, on the north side. 1t
spread to the repair shops of the Inter-
borough Co, just north of the ball
grounds and several of the shops and
at least 80 cars were destroyed.
The clubhouse, with the gymnasium
containing uniforms and other equip
ment was saved and at 2 o'clock this
morning the fire was under control.
At o'clock this morning only the
bleachers at the east were standing Be-
cause of the depression in which the
grounds are situated under bluff and
at the terminus of the Elevated Railway.
the fire was exceedingly hard TO reach
and had gained much headway before
nremen could get adequate streams of wa
ter into play. Five hundred empty cars
of the Elevated Railway were standing
on tracks adjoining the park and many
of them caught fire.
The grand stand itself was
crescent shaped and was enlarged
within the past two years, so that it
covered half the circumference of the
grounds and seated about 10000 per-
sons.
The park had been occupied by the
New York National Club for q years
and is known the word over as the
Polo Grounds the home of the
Giants" The first team to play on
these grounds was the New York
Brotherhood Club Of players. who
built the park. In the fall of 1890
the Brotherhood sold the grounds to
the National League, which immedi-
ately took possession. In 1895 the
club was purchased by Andrew Freed
man. At that time the seats COW
cred only one side of the field. 1t
remained for John r. Brush who
purchased the club in 1902, to remodel
the grounds and extend the stands and
bleachers, SO the field was completely
surrounded by seats.
