MADERO APPROVAL
OF PEACE TERMS
Believed Father And Mother of Leader
Have Plans, Backed Up BY AS
surances From Capital.

FL Paso, Tex, Mar. 30.-Francisco
l. Madero, president of the insurrectos
and their leader in the field has not
been consulted about any peace terms
and no settlement of the war in Mex
leo would be accepted without his
final word, which alone would be re-
garded as binding.
At present Madero, disregarding re-
cent political changes at Mexico City,
is arranging his me nabout Chihuahua,
the metropolis of northern Mexico.
with a view possibb or besieging the
city
Insurrecto leaders gave out this In
formation yesterday, with the stipula-
tion that it was intended to minimize
the assertions made by Francisco ].
Madero, Sr., and Gustavo A. Madero
at San Antonio, Tex, that tentative
plans now being considered may re-
suit in peace within a month.
That Madero's father and brother
have some peace plans, backed up by
assurances from Mexico City, is npt
that any action toward the settlement
of the war without full participation
by the insurrecto leader would not be
popular among the men now in arms.
The Maderos at San Antonio are be-
lieved here to have gone to the from
tier with the express purpose of get
ting into communication with Fran
cisco Madero, Jr., and possibly of
meeting with him. Whether they would
venture into the interior by the way
of El Paso or by railroad to Chihua-
hua City via Eagle Pass of Laredo,
Tex, is not known here, but a signifi-
cant statement made by the junta to-
day was that if the Maderos go into
Mexico it will be with the consent of
the Mexican government" This was
taken to indicate that Mexico City
is willing that any peace oyertures
shall be presented to the insurrecto
leader
From El paso the trip to Madeio
would require several days of hard
travel, as all the railroads from here
south are destroyed. Madero ia about
one days march west of Chihuahua
City and 225 miles south of FL Paso
The junta here has kept up as con-
tinuous communication with him as
was possible by courier service
Madero thus far has been informed
of all recent events, but it is not
known that he has received any late
advices from his father.
Three of Maderos staff officers, in
Guiding Rafael Augilar former cap
tain in the Mexican army, now on the
way to El Paso L. Gutierrez De Lara,
an insurrecto captain who figured
prominently in the battle at Casas
Grandes, arrived yesterday. He said
the insurrectos were wholly ignorant
of any peace plans. His opinion was
the insurrectos were enthusiastic and
determined to carry on the war. De
Lara reported definitely that Martain

independence, Kans., Mar. 30. - A.
o. Truskett, 20 years old, of Caney,
Kans., was found guilty last night of
numbering J. d. S. Nicely, millionaire
oil man of Lima, o. The jury had been
out since o'clock last night and re-
turned its verdict of murder in the
second degree at o'clock last night.
Truskett shot and killed Nicely in
the Palace Hotel at Caney, January Z.
There were no witnesses to the shoot
ing. Nicely was president of the Wich-
ita Pipe Line company, which had sued
to have declared Illegal valuable oil
lease owned by Truskett. Witnesses
testified Truskett's mind had been af-
fected by worry over the suit. A plea
was offered that Truskett was insane
when he killed the Lima man.
Truskett showed no sign of emotion
when the verdict was read, but his
daughter, Mrs. Mills, faintedf and was
unconscious for more than an hour.
Truskett's divorced wife, two daugh-
ters, two sons and brother were with
him when the verdicy was read. A
motion for new trial will be made in
the morning, and if it is denied an ap-
peal will be taken to the supreme
court Truskett's friends in Caney
were telephoned last night, and will
come here today prepared to give a
bond of 100000 for him, who in the
meantime, is in the custody of the
sheriff.

Senators Martin and Swanson
deserve credit for remaining at
their posts in Congress, faithfully
discharging the duties for which
they were chosen, while repre-
sentatives Jones and Glass are
away from their seats in Congress
assailing the records of Martin
and Swanson. Is it not as neces-
sary for members Of the House to
be present as it is for members
of the Senate? It will be difficult
for these gentlemen to convince
the people of Virginia that men
who neglect their duties in the
House of Representatives in order
to seek promotion for themselves,
would make better Senators than
those we now have. Senators
Martin and Swanson can well
afford to let Representatives
Jones and Glass do the canvass
ing. They will submit the mat
ter to the people who will have
little difficulty in deciding who
will best serve them.
