tween the federal government and the
revolutionists tonight. and though peace
practically is an accomplished fact,
there were Kaleidoscope changes today

Late this afternoon Francisco T.
Madero. jr.. received telegram from
President DiaZ, suggesting that some
person in whom the former had CON
fidence he sent to Mexico City to treat
with Senor de la Barra concerning the
terms OF peace. Senor Madero decided
to appoint Alfredo Roblez Dominguez
who left here several days ago, and is
expected in the capital tomorrow. Senor
Dominguez. it is said, will handle only
secondary points.
There is still some question about ar
ranging the main terms. Senior Madero
and DIR. Gomez talked for some time to-
day about issuing a proclamation or man
ifeSto declaring peace. Inasmuch o
sufficient agreement to warrant such an
act had been reached. Senor Madero
thought il unnecessary
Tonight DR.. Gomez discussed the ques-
tion with Judge Carba1al the federal en-
voy. and later said he would consider IL
further with Senor Madero tomorrow.
