across the Mexican border to partici.

tiationS.
Don Francisco I. Madero, ST., father
Of the revolutionary leader, commit.
ted himself to that extent, but de.
clined to go into any details. Senior De
La Barra, the new foreign minister in
the rejuvenated Mexican cabinet, and
erstwhile ambassador to the United
States, is scheduled to pass through
here. A man who Travelled on the train
from New York to this city with Don
Francisco and his son, Gustavo, is au.
thority for the statement that if the
telegram expected by Don Francisco
does not say to the contrary, one or
more members Of the Madero family
will board the train here and proceed
to Monterey, Mexico, and probably
thence to the city of Chihuahua.
The publication of their utterance
of Tuesday led to the issuance of q
typewriter statement, carefully done
in English of Francisco and Gustavc
NIadero. 1t bore nothing new, but dc
parted from Tuesdays interview ir
insisting on the point that the insur
rectos, will not lay down their arms
pending peace negotiations. This
statement obviously meant for press
use, may be taken as the first gur
of the negotiations.
Privately it is we'll understood tina,
the rebels will dispense, 80 that the.
may not be designated as an armed
force. with which President Diaz has
said he will not deal.
1t is certain. if the rebels are con
sistent with frequently promulgated
principles, they will not be trick
ed by the Mexican government int
laying themselves open to successful
attack in case of sudden failure of ne
gotiations.
They are suspicious of advances from
the government because of past expert
ences, but there can be no doubt a
present that the administration is sir
cerely DESTROYS of meeting them hal
way to end the war.
Insurrecto President Not ConsuItee
Ri Paso, March 30.-Francisco
Madero, president of the insurrecto
and their leader in the field, has no
| been consulted about any peace term
and no settlement of the war in Me,
leo will be accepted without his fina
word, which alone would be regarde
as binding. At present Madero, disre
garding recent political changes a
Mexico City. is arranging his me-
about Chihuahua, the metropolis q
northern Mexico, with view of pos
sibly besieging the city.
1nsurrecto leaders gave out this IL
formation, with the stipulation that j
was not intended to minimize the im
| portance of assertions made by Frar
| cisco I. Madero, ST., and Gustsvo A
| Madero at San Antonio, Texas, tina
tentative plans now being considere
may result in peace within month
| The Maderos at San Antonio ar
believed to have gone to the frontie
with the purpose of getting into CON
munication with Francisco Maderc
IT., and possibly Of meeting wit
him.
! Whether they would venture int
the interior by way of Ell Paso, or b.
railroad to chihuahua City via Eagl
Pass or Laredo, Texas, is not know
!! here, but a significant statement mad
{ by the junta was "That if the Madero

sent Of the Mexican government
| This was taken to indicate that Mex
leo City is willing that any peace ove1
