MADERO FEARS TO START
Continued from frat page.

Sehor de la Barra becomes acting rieS'
dent. according to a statement mace to'
night by an insurgent leader. He aooeu
that Madero would not go 10 Mexico
City until Senior de la Barra was IN
stalled in power. He might go to the
capital then to assist in restoring trah-
guilty.
II the rebels in Lower California OF
other bands hitherto fighting indepen-
IDENTIFY do not lay down their arms Ma
dero's army will be turned loose on them'
this man said.
No peace agreement will be signed ac-
cording to this authority, but the time
until Senior de la Barra becomes Presi-
dent will be used in getting the Mexican
Congress to enact laws covering most OF
the points which it had been thought
should be contained in a peace agree
ment
This explanation was made by one OF
the most prominent insurgent leaders TO
indicate the status Of the peace negotia-
tons tonight.
Facts" said a leader ARE the only
things that can make peace. We cannot
make a peace agreement legally binding
that requires the government TO pay cer-
tain indemnities. This must be done by
Congressional appropriation. We cannot
compel the government to install our
provisional governors. This must be
done by the state legislatures them
selves. When all these things are done.
then alone can We proclaim peace. or
course, peace is assured. 1t is a matter
OF method only"
Naming Cabinet for De la earrs.
The naming OF the new Cabinet for
Acting President De la Barra was the
| chief work Of the day among the leaders.
Nadero did it with the assistance Of his
advisers. What they will finally do can
not be predicted, as names for Cabinet
portfolios are subject to change without
notice until the new members are actu-
ally installed.

Madero's Explanation.
Madero issued the following statement
tonight
From the moment received the invita-
tion Of the government OF General pla|

thing might be interpreted by General Diaz
as lack Of confidence in him on my part

gested that il was too formal an EXPIRES
sion. II was said that what Madero
really received was an 'intimation" that
perhaps negotiations could be fastened
II he were on the ground in direct con-
tact with the government ofhcials.
As the rebel leader has decided not to
go 10 Mexico City until Senior de Ia
Barra becomes acting President. the
original plan Of having him arrange
peace terms In the capital has been
abandoned.
Peace terms will be arranged by tele-
graphic understandings and by observa-
ton the latter constituting the scrutiny
which the rebels viii! place on acts OF
Congress and the state legislatures be-
tween now and the end Of the month.
The Mexican Congress is scheduled to
adjourn by the end Of the month 1t is
a safe prediction. therefore. that ten days
will see either peace IT, Mexico or con-
tinuation Of the war.
Speaking Of the alleged plot against
him. Madero said this morning:
Il have received hundreds Of rumors
all through the revolution. and II has
been my task TO sift the reliable from
the unreliable This one is utterly dis
