JUAREz, Mex, May 11.--Plans were
being laid at the insurrecto headquar-
ters today for force OF several hun
'dred men to march south TO meet Gem
eral Rabaso. the Federal leader who
is reported to be on his way here from
Chihuahua with a good-sized army.
The rebels already have about 300 men
at Casas Grandes and probably will
open fire on Rabago when he arrives
there.
General Navarro, who was paroled
with his officers last night. spent the
night in the same house With General
Francisco I. Madero. jr. Though the
given the liberty OF the city. he does
not deem 1t safe to be seen much about
town, because there are said to be sew
eral insurrectos who cherished grl1dge
against him for alleged bayoneting OF
the wounded in other battles of the
revolution.
Rebel officers, however, have given
strict orders not to harm any Of the
paroled federals and from the discipline
which has been maintained in the in
surreqto force heretofore, 1t is not con-
sidered likely that any mishap will be-
fall them. The insurrectos believe that
III the next twenty-four hours food
and supplies will be crossing the line to
them unmolested. They are now in pos
session of about 100000 rounds of am
munition. several machine guns and
field pieces, about zoo Mauser rifles and
enough ammunition belts and other
warlike sundres to wage furious war
fare for some time to come
Hope for End of Strife.
Conservative rebel leaders are hoping
that the bloody battle of Juarez will be
the last chapter of the military side of
the revolution. Having demonstrated
their strength in the field, they now
wish to turn their attention to the argu-
ment of words and public opinion.
They are now ready to listen to promo
sltlons from the government, and today

The rebel political leaders todav
conferred with General Madero ana
revised the demands made before tha
battle. They strengthened them some
what. and will continue to insist IN a
real participation in governmental NJ
fairs and such privileges as the
naming of men from their party for
governors in fourteen states and for
four portfolios in the cabinet.
The attitude of the rebels on the
question of the resignation of Presi-
dent Diaz hardly has crystalized yet.
Ut. Nasquea Gomez, one of the rebel
peace commissioners. declared today 1t
was still the paramount consideration
on which all prospects for peace
hinged. The rebels have taken the
stand that their demand that Presi-
dent Diaz make public merely his in
tention of resigning has been met with
such vague and naughty reply that
they now will demand the fixing of IN
exact time for his retirement.
The rebels maintain, on the other
hand. in their demands they are ask
ing merely for steps toward a gradual
readjustment of the administration OF
the republic. and they believe the auto
matte transfer of the power to their
own political party soon will follow
