Affairs at Ensenada,

San Diego, Cal, May 1S.-Should
the rebel forces in Lower California
attack Ensenada the capital city in
the next few days. they will find. the
federal forces there greatly strength
ened, and prepared for fierce battle.
More than $50 Mexicans from San
Diego and Los Angeles, who are loyal
to Diaz, left on the steamer San Diego
last night for Ensenada, where they
will join the federal forces. ALL were
given transportation but none will
be given compensation for their SER
vices. They were given an enthusi-
astiC farewell at the dock, where
their relatives and friends gathered
and a brass band added to the excite.
ment as the boat left the pier.
Reports from Ensenada state that
8 0trained Japanese soldiers have
joined the federals, and will aid il
defending the city. The Chinese
/ there have chartered a steamer
which will sail out to sea at the frs
sign of the rebel attack. The Japan
ese will aid materially the soldiers
now at Ensenada, it is said.
Barbed wire fences have beer
strung about the town and large
supply of dynamite is said to be a
the disposal of the federals. Although
there are no cannon in the city, th
gunboat Guerrero, stationed there
has a small battery.
A fierce battle is certain, loca
Mexicans declare, in case the rebel
attempt to take the city.

JAPAN IS
PUT over
A BARREL
MUST SHOW HER HAND AND
POINT OUT HER REAL FEEL
INGS TOWARD THE MAINTE-
NANCE OF UNIVERSAL PEACE.

Washington, May 18.-As a result
of the publication of the terms Of the
proposed arbitration treaties with
England and France, Japan, say Dip
lomats today, has an opportunity to
prove its sincerity in its expressed de-
sire for continued peace among all
nations.
When the general invitation was
sent out for the world powers to join
in the peace movement, 1t was eX-
pected that Japan would be among
the first of the nations to respond.
It's attitude, however concerning the
peace movement is still in doubt.
Baron Uchida, the Japanese ambassa-
dor, said today:
Japan is greatly interested in the
proposal from America for an arbi-
tration treaty to include questions of
national honor and other vital inter
ests. 1t is too early yet to say what
action my government will take The
proposition is of the most Importance
and requires deep study"

banks of Juarez, and payday for the
rebel army Is coming soon.
Madero's action in confiscating the
governments money was practically
forced on him by his men. For days
there have been representatives of
trouble in the rebel camp and in
Juarez itself outbreaks of the hun
CRY and dlscontented men have sew
eral times been suppressed with diff
Guilty. Now, however, that the ar
mistice has been signed, Madero is
believed to feel the ground more
firmly under his feet, and he Is ex-
pected TO at once disburse sufficient
cash TO his troops TO keep them stead
fast until the agreement of peace
with the federals is put into opera
tion.
Rebels Not Pleased.
There is great dissatisfaction to-
day among the rebels over the terms
of the peace pact. The designations
of President Diaz and Vice-President
Corral before June /, the assumption
of a temporary presidency by De La
barra, with Madero as a practical as
sistant; the fact that Madero will
have a voice in the selection of nearly
all the cabinet members-all these
points convince the rebels that they
are to get square deal Within
there is a little dissatisfaction over
the fact that De Labarra will be dom
inant in the selection of minister
Of war and in the ministry of for
eign affairs, 1t is realized by the
chiefs that something had to be con-
ceded, and they are satisfied that the
forcing out of Diaz Is the real, sub
stantial end for which the was has
been waged.

He is expected in again tonight, but

The situation which has resulted
