JUAREZ. May 23.-It was apparent
today that Gen. Madero regards It as
vital to his leadership that he bring
peace among the insurgents now that
he has signed peace treaty with
Diaz. Today he sent his brothers,
Gustavo and Emilio, into the In

ference.
A telegram was received today
from Mexico City advising Madero
that the Diaz government this after
noon will release from all Mexican
jails the political prisoners. These
number more than 1000, many OF
whom are Madero supporters and
were imprisoned for that reason
alone. At least thirty of them are
close personal friends of Madero.
