The latter, DR. Gomez believes may
be made minister OF finance. but the
name OF Scnor NuncH. now assistant

for the position.
Jimantour Has. Influence.
One reason for the selection Of Senor
blmantour for the position of minister
Of f"reign aifairs is the belief that IN
that role be would be able to exercise
an influence on the insurrecto element
for the cause of peace.
Dr. Gomez said the revolutionists
would not think Of peace until the gov
ernors of Coahuila, Sonora, Zacatecas,
Durango, Guerrero, Yucatau, Hidalgo
and the state of Mexico were changed.
AS TO the overtures for peace which
il is reported were made in conferences
in New York between Francisco Ma.

cr, and Senor Limantonr, DR.. Gomez
asscr' cd that as the two men were in

they should discuss peace measures, but
whether the Madero sons would be in.
