.D|Az WILL RESIGN.
MADERo is GIVEN HIGH POST
PEACE IN MEXICO SEEMS
ASSURED.
GENERAL ARMlsTIcE SIGNED
Conditions Under Which the Govern
ment Will Compromise Are Re-
sasded as Almost Complete
Surrender to Rebels.

Mexico City-President Diaz and
Vice-President Corral will resign be-
fore June 1. A general armistice has
been signed at Juarez and peace in
Mexico seems assured.
Minister of Foreign Relations de la
Barra will become president ad In
term.
Francisco 1. Madero, the revolution
list leader, will be called to the City
of Mexico to act as De la Barra's chief
adviser and as the greatest guaran-
tee possible that every pledge made
by the government will be CARVED out.
AS viewed by the public II will be
virtually a Joint presidency pending
,the calling of a new presidential cleo
ton.
The cabinet will be recognized.
The minister of war will be named by
De la Barra. The foreign Office will
be in charge Of a sub.secretary named
by De la Barra. Other cabinet Off
GERS will be chosen by De la Barra
and Madero jointly.
A new election will be called within
six months
Political amnesty will be recon-.
mended to the chamber Of deputies
These are the conditions upon which
President Diaz will compromise, as
announced by Minister of the Treas
ury Limantour. Virtually they are ad-
mitted in high quarters to be COM
plete surrender to the revolutionists.
The resignation of Diaz and the
joint regency of De la Barra and
Madero are said to constitute guar
antee so complete that the original
insurrecto demand for IA governors
no longer needs to be considered.
Tho cabinet was in almost continu-
Gus session for two days notwithstand-
ing the severe Illness of President
Diaz. The presidents entire face is
infected from an liberated tooth. His
upper lip is swollen far beyond its
normal size and his face is inflamed.
He speaks with the greatest difficulty,
but, while he is in severe pain, his
condition is not alarming at this time,
despite his advanced age.
The governments conditions were
telegraphed to Judge Carbajal al
Juarez with instructions to submit
them to Madero Soon after the terms
were submitted an armistice covering
the entire republic was agreed upon.
Inasmuch as the government be
lieves it has made every concession
that the revolutionists have requested
it is firmly believed that treaty OF
peace will follow.

Gust Of Wind Plays Havoc With Huge
Gas Bag as Craft Is About to
Start on Journey With Eight
voyagers.

Duesseldorf, Rheinish Prussia.
Count zeppelin's dirigible balloon, the
Deutschland, the latest of his models,
after a career of only six weeks, was
totally wrecked on the roof OF its
shed.
The finish OF the airship was less
spectacular than that of its five pre-
,decessors, but more complete. For
tunately the crew and passengers es-
capped injury.
The accident occurred as the
Deutschland was being released for a
passenger trip. Eight passengers,
four men and four women, had seated
themselves comfortably in the cabin,
the crew were at their posts and 200
men on the ground chung to the guide
ropes as the powerful craft slowly
emerged from her berth and, under
pressure of overya half million cubic
feet Of gas, struggled to be free. ;'s
Just as the airship cleared the shed
violent guest of wind drove her back
against the entrance. At the impact
several of the balloonettes burst and
the released IS destroyed her equilib-
rum. The army of men at the guide
ropes chung on desperately, but we're
fpowerless against the wind. and an
other gust lifted the airship bodily
and she dropped on the roof of the
shed, her back broken and her hull
left dangling over one edge.
In this position the crew and pas

ously injured. were left helpless until

Oil Suit in Courts Since 1906.
The suit which called forth the oil
decision was instituted in 1906 in the
United States circuit court for the
eastern district Of Missouri. 1t was
brought in the name of the United
States. The immediate object was to
dissolve the Standard OIL company of
New Jersey.
From the very beginning, the bust
ness and the legal worlds recognized
that the suit put the Sherman anti
trust law to the most severe test to
which it had been subjected. The law
had been on the statute book since
1890, and had been the basis of some
eighteen suits finally passed on by the
Supreme court of the United States.
That the law was constitutional was
accepted as settled by these decisions,
but simple as the words of the statute
seemed, there was an absence of unan-
unity in regard TO its Interpretation.
