He Doesn't Like Organization of New
Political Party.

Washington. ID. c., March 30.-Nego-
tiations calculated to end the Mexican
revolution will not take place for sew
eral days in the opinion of General Vas
quez Gomez. head of the confidential
agency of the revolutionists here. He
issued a statement tonight attacking
the formation of a new political party
in Mexico as was reported last night
from the City of Mexico, saying:
The oligarchy which today gov
ern's Mexico has given evident proof
that it is not proceeding in good faith
in the so-called negotiations for peace.
because. while they are sending their
delegates to treat for peace with the
revOlutionists, they are occupying
themselves ian the City Of Mexico with
the formation of an artificial political
party to be composed OF the same men
who have corrupted the public mind.
Undoubtedly this new party has
been planned by the 'Cientificos with
the object of asking the government for
those same reforms which the revolu-
tionists desire and then by not treat
ing with the revolutionists openly and
thus losing time. the government will
cOncede the reforms to the new politi-
cal party, with the purpose of giving
them power and popularity"

THE TRAIN STOPPED
TO See A TRAGEDY
The Shooting of Woman and Suicide
of Man.

New York, March 30.-Passengers
arriving early this evening on a New
York Central train had a horrifying
Introduction to a crime when the sud
den appH 'ation of the emergency
brakes brought the train to a stop al
most opposite double tragedy, which
was enacted on Park avenue. A we'll
dressed man was seen to draw a re-
vOlver from his pocket, shoot a woman
and turn the weapon on himself The
engineer, the first to see the couple,
threw on the brakes and shouted TO
the man: Hold on; don't shoot her"
The assassin paid no heed to the I'M
expected witness of the deed. TIE took
deliberate aim, fired and then placed
the weapon to his temple. fired and
sank to the street at the wOman's side
The man was dead when the police
arrived, and the woman has little
chance of recovery. A card in the
mans pocket bore the name OF Jacob
Shonts. There is no clue tonight to
the woman's identity. The man was
further identified as a son OF Rudolph
Stumpmictzy, a millionaire lumberman
of Austria, who died several years ago.

Story Of Commission Mol
Confirmed al Mexico Cilg
OISIASTEFUL TO DIAz
The End of the War Not
Generally Believed to Be
Near The Attitude of
Neither Side Is Concilia-
tory.

Mexico City, March 3O-Reports
from points in the United States
that the Mexican government intends
10 send a peace commission to treat
with a similar body representing the
rebels, have aroused a lively interest
here and there is hope of vertical
ton, but no government official has
been found who would admit the ex-
istence of any arrangements of this
character of concession, but the belief
is growing that President DiaZ is not
yet willing TO recognize Madero and
his followers to the extent that he
shall discuss with them terms of
peace
In this city there are few who do
not hope the government and the
rebels will come to terms, but there
are many who believe the day of
peace is not far off.
Francisco Madero, Jr, still insists
that there can be no peace so long
as Diaz remains at the head of the
nation. So far as the war itself is
concerned there has been little change
in the last five days The rebels are
largely in control of the rural dis
tricts i'm Chihuahua, Sonora and PARIS
Of Zacatecas. while throughout the
country attachments of rebeds-gen-
uine bandits in some some cases
appear here and there
So far as the larger towns are con-
cerned they still are in control Of
of the government. That the rebels
will take one or two of these is
probable, but whether they can hold
them is another thing. They have
no men to waste in garrisoning cities
Great interest is being shown in
the presidents message to congress,
which will be read on the evening
of April /. 1t is reliably reported
that il will be one of the most re-
markable documents the president has
ever sent To the congress. inasmuch
as it will contain recommendations
for a revision of the electoral laws. a
revision of the system of taxation.
