O'Clock Sunday signed a peace agree
ment at the custom house here in
tended TO end the hostilities that have
been waged in Mexico for the last

ed the inclusion in the agreement of
the fact that revolutionists will be

legislatures the names of provisional
governors and likewise the fact that

cabinet have been chosen by the revo-
lutionists, but the agreement records
that President Diaz and Vice-Presi-
dent Corral will resign and that the
government is to concentrate its at
tention on desired reforms.
