Rambeouillet. France. July 2s.-At
the conclusion Of a.scabinet meeting
today, when President Fallieres pre-
sided, two 5 official announcements
were made. The first was that For

parlers between France and Germany
were proceeding normally. The sec
ond announcement was that the cab

confession which they said the lad
had dictated and signed, giving full
account Of the crime. Robbery was
the motive, according to the lads
statement, but the murder netted him
only $6 in cash and q gold watch
which he pawned for $1s.
In Geidel's statement he said he
was about to drop chloroform soak

awoke and then began a desperate
fight. He said he then hit him in the
face and the old man fell helpless.

HA|T|EN CRISIS
IS APPROACHING
Considerable Activity Notice.
able Among oldiers in the
Palace Grounds

Port au Prince, Haiti, July 2s.-It
is rumored that AUX Cages, President
Simons' home town, has fallen into
the hands of the revolutionists. II
this is true. 1t is severe blow to the
administration.
Considerable activity, noticeable
among the soldiers in the palace
grounds is believed to have some
bearing on the events likely to trans
pire within the next few days.
Advices from Port de Paix on the
northern coast indicate uneasiness on
that point and the American cruiser
Chester has gone there from Cape
Haitien. The crisis in the govern.
ment appears to be gradually ap.
preaching.
The revolutionists encompass the
capital. President Simon appears to
recognize the inevitable, but If he
has left the palace the fact is not
known. 1t is believed he planned to
embark at the last moment, but 1t is
thought that If he remained in the
city he could help to assure the pub
lie Of order following occupation by
the enemy General Leconte is at
the head of the invading forces.
Leconte's candidacy for the presi-
dency progressed with his march on
the capital and there was consequent
loss of ground by General Firmin
commander of the Riva wing Of the
revolution and also an aspirant for
the office of national executive in sue
cession to Simon's forced retirement
is at hand.

Washington, July 2s.-The situation
in Haiti is rapidly growing more seri-

American Minister Furniss today.
The report spread of the revolution
shows the desperate position of the
government and indicates that spirit
of discomfort has begun in the south
as we'll as the north Of the country.
The American consul at Port de Praix
reports that the situation there is
quiet. Oflcials here express gratifi-
cation over this news in view Of the
recent rumors Of threatened trouble
because of which the scout cruiser,
Chester, was dispatched to the scene.

It was implied that the release would
follow the personal delivery of the order
by the father to the Juarez officials,
and the immediate release by order of
Gen. Navarro it also appeared was made
as a condescension.
While BIatt and Converse were re-
leased on this order Of the United

insurrecto nurse, is believed to have
gained his liberty on the merits of his
case There was no proof of Browns
being implicated with the rebels in
other than legitimate ways. except a
letter he had written, and which was
explained away to the satisfaction of
the Mexican authorities.
However, the controversy is a closed
incident. and the inside workings OF
the case doubtless will never be
learned. Good opportunity for an inter-
national issue has been spirited away
by clever diplomacy.

MADERO THE DREAMER:
NOW 4 CHANGED MAN
By John A. Gray, Hearst War Correspondents,

When I saw Madero this afternoon, he
impressed me as being a somewhat pa
thetic figure, not at all triumphant and
possibly not understanding the motives
or mazes of things whereby he had been
induced to withhold his attack when for
three days he had constantly been upon

and therein he gave to his former state
ment on the same subject the mildest
Interpretation possible
win you not insist that president
Diaz resfgn?"
Not before the fighting" he said.
I could not determine from anything
further that Madero was willing to say
what this meant. From what can be
gathered from available sources, how
ever, the inference is that Madero still
wants the president to step down and
out, but is willing that he shall do so in
a dignified manner and without srgn
of hurry or of having been forced to
do so.
"Of course" he explained, cit could
not be expected that Diaz would i'm
mediately give up his office to effect
such an important change would re-
quire time and care
All OF winch would make 1T appear
that the Madero of yesterday and today
are different men and that a change
has subtly come over the spirit of re-
bellion.
Madero, the, dreamer and visionary,
as described by minister Limantour,
was, to the eye Of the ordinary beholder,
the Madero who today occupied the
adobe house a short walk from the
footbridge swung across the Rio Grande
about two miles west OF Ell Paso
There was no time during the day
that hundreds of Americans, Mexicans,
prosperous and poor, were not sur
rounding this humble domicile which
has come to be satrically termed the
Temple OF Peace"
They shouted viva Madero!" and
paid such other flattering attentions
as fall to the great, but if he noticed
these at ali it was in nervous and
somewhat deprecating manner.
His consent to the armistice was won
only after every resource of the peace
with honor apostles had been employed,
and yet Madero is manifestly dissat-
isfied, though he protests differently,
and does not know whether he has been
unwisely led into a situation which viii
render ineffective his military pro-
gram.
There have been good many reports
that two or three of the Madero leaders
notably Col. Villa, were strongly op-
