learned this morning that If there

five days In which to conclude peace.
The armistice signed yesterday be-
tween General Navarro. of the federal
forces, and General Madero, will be
extended from next Friday, when the
i've days agreed on expires at noon.
Negotiations for peace this morning
had extended just far enough to put
each side in possession of the outlines
Of the others demands. Madero has
xnown and sacredly guarded for two
weeks information as to what the gov
eminent will grant. He telegraphed

Mexican capital, but no indications Of

Nearly all of the Americans with
Madero, feeling that the fighting is
over, are preparing to quit the paths
of war for the walks of peace. Many
Mexicans of the same opinion have al
ready made tentative applications for
work in this country. Scores Of the
rebels up to this time had never been

The Associated Press dispatch from
Paris stating that General Bernardo
Reyes, idol Of the Mexican army, is to

greater than that of any other man.

be entrusted the holding of state and
elections.
