WANT TO RETURN TO FIELDS.

Farmers Among lnsurreetos Anxious
For Peace Under Proper Conditions.
El Paso. Tex. March 3o.-All avail
able insurrectos In the field In northern
Mexico are being concentrated west Of
chihuahua, according to news received
here. II is believed by insurrecto SYM
pathisers that It Is the purpose to
allow those who nght for the insurrecto
cause TO have some part In tho peace
negotiations. There has been no recent
fighting around chihuahua and this 10
thought to be because tho men expect
peace Immediately.
However, tho concentration OF Ma
dero's forces near chihuahua would
make possible an Immediate movement
against that city should negotiations
fail.
Many Of the insurrectos are small
farmers. They have been IN the field
for weeks and suffered many hardships.
AS the time for planting their crops Is
now at hand it 10 thought here they
win be willing TO return to their farms
ana await the development OF reforms
IL assured that the reforms already
outlined be enacted. They demand.
however, that they retain their arms.
that all prisoners taken since the out
break OF the insurrection be released.
and that the families OF those who
have fallen in the insurrecto ranks will
be given the same compensation award
ed the families OF the federal dead.
