PEACE IN PROSPECT.
Rebels viii Suspend Operations If
Reforms Are Granted.

Washington, March 21. IT Peace is
assured in Mexico within week il
certain influences now at work toward
that end prove effective. With the
arrival in Mexico City of Senior Jose
Yves Limantour, minister of finance,
President Diaz will begin conferences,
which it is expected will result in the
announcement within three or four
DAYS of the reorganization of the cab
met
Minister Limantour will present an
explanation of the demands of the rev.
olutionists and the changes in the Off
cial family of President Diazp as well
as the institution of reforms which are
expected to appease the insurgents.
In the meantime, President Taft,
who arrives here tomorrow morning
from Augusta, Ca, will confer with
Ambassador de la Barra, and there is
good grounds for the assumption that
the troops now concentrated in Texas
Immediately will begin series of
maneuvers, and will return shortly to
their posts. In addition, when con-
ditions are normal in Mexico, a COM
plete statement of the consideration
that actuated the mobilization of
troops will be issued.
Hope for the coming of peace in
Mexico is strengthened by the manner
in which the revolutionists have COM
mented on the magazine article of
Ambassador de la Barra and the signi-
ficant spirit of expectancy with which
the results of Senior Limantour's con-
ferences in Mexico City this week are
awaited by organs of insurgent senti-
ments.
Not single adverse comment was
recorded in Mexican newspapers to
the proposal of the Mexican ambassa-
dor that all classes in Mexico unite for
the promotion of national unity.
The insurgents have taken the stand
that their operations have proved they
are willing to risk great deal to Sc
cure the adoption of certain reforms
in the government, and if not granted
will contiue the strife.
The dissatisfaction in Mexico,
though most conspicuous in Chihuahua,
las not been confined to that state and
serious outbreaks in other states have
been prevented by the promises of
Early changes in administration.

RESTING ON ARMS
Troop Trains Held Ready 10 Pro-
CGGd 10 Mexican Soil.
Cavalry Can Start on Moments No
tice-Events in Mexico Are
Closely Watched.

San Antonio, Tex, March 20. The
air was electrified tonight with ru-
mors of important developments in
Mexico and of the movement of the
maneuver division to the border. The
return of Jose Yves Limantour to
Mexico in part accounted for this.
A newspaper man who returned
from the City of Mexico said sensa-
tional developments were to be expec-
ted. He said the story of the stoning
of Diaz' palace was untrue.
At the maneuver camp nearly every
preparation was denial of the story
of mere drill and tactics. Eight
tracks have been cleared in the South
ern Pacific yards. Runways have
been constructed so that the loading of
eight troop trains can be effected sim
ultaneously. The entire yard has
been cleared, so that nothing will him
der the regular army in the event of
any emergency.
That these eight tracks are at the
disposal of the government was admit
ted by an official of the railroad com
pany, who, in the same breath, told of
the bedding" of lot of stock cars
that are being stored in the Southern
Pacific yards. A second official said a
representative of the government
asked him, in case stock cars were not
available for the shipment of horses,
how many animals could be loaded in
to ordinary SO or 40-foot box cars.
Inquiry was also made if the road
would undertake to handle soldiers in
box cars in an emergency.
A train, said to be destined to carry
troops to Nogales, Arizona, on the
Mexican border, was made up at the
army yards here tonight. 1t consists
of nine tourist and two standard Sleep
ers, kitchen and baggage car. 1t
is manned and under orders to remain
in readiness to pull out at any hour.
1T may go tonight, tomorrow or
never" said a railroad man. st
must remain with steam up and
crew aboard at all times, in any
event.
So far as could be learned, no orders
have been received for the embarka-
tion of troops, but it is said among
railroad men that the destination of
the train is Nogales. 1t probably will
carry the Eleventh cavalry.
Interest is added to the news by the
fact that in the plans pigeon-holed at
Washington for the movement of
troops ready for any eventualities, an
invasion of Mexico includes the use of
as a gateway.

$4,000 THREATEN STRIKE
New York Express Drivers Upset

New York, March 18. Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, has been summoned

Strikers and employers are asked to
submit their differences to arbitra-
tion, the men returning to work pend
ing decision, in resolutions adopted
tonight by the interdenominational
committee for the promotion of indus
trial arbitration.
After deciding at meeting yester-
day to return to work and leave the
settlement of their grievances to May
or Gaynor, the striking Adams Ex-
press company drivers held another
session in Jersey late at night and
overturned the plans by deciding not
only to continue the strike, but to call
out the drivers employed by other
companies as well.

FIND WILD INDIAN BAND.
Scientists Discover Savage Tribe
Thought Wiped Out in 1870.

San Francisco-An anthropological
expedition from the university of Cali
fornia, under Professor Kroeber, has
reported the discovery of remnants of
a supposedly extinct tribe of Califor-
MIA Indians near the headwaters of the
Sacramento river.
The rest of the tribe, the Kombos,
were exterminated in raid in 1870,
the settlers of Northern California
having been aroused by the depreda-
tions of the Indians, who were hunted
down and massacred.
According to the members Of the
expedition, which returned from the
North, recently, there are about 20 in
the tribe at present. They were iden-
titled by arrowheads and other imple-
ments found in their camps, although
the Indians themselves were too wild
to be approached.
The university will try to have them
rounded up by troop of United
States cavalry in order that their
language and ancient customs may be
studied in the interest of ethnology.
Numerous reports from sheepmen in
Tehama county that sheep had been
found killed by arrows led to the
search for the tribe.

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE|
5000 ACRES FOR ORCHARD.
Company Buys Big Tract in YamhiIl
County.

Portland-The purchase of 5000
acre tract of orchard land in Yamhill
county, four miles from Sheridan, on
the Southern Pacific, by the Clear
View Orchard company, of Portland,
is announced. The purchase was made
from c. G. Andrews, a we'll known
Western Oregon land owner and oper-
ator. The consideration is not made
known, but Mr.. Andrews retains an
interest in the company and will serve
in the capacity of secretary and treas
urer.
The purpose of the purchasers is to
convert the land into 10-acre orchard
home tracts. The tracts have been
laid out and number of them have
already been contracted for. Mr..
Andrews said that eight homes were
under construction, the cheapest of
them costing $2,800, others ranging in
price from SO, to $4,000.
Each tract is being planted to fruit
trees by the company. Expert tree
planters from Hood River have been
secured to do the work. Eighty-seven
men are now on the ground.
"We will make of this tract mod
ern Eden for 800 homes" said Mr..
Andrews. "We intend to make every
possible preliminary preparation for
the coming of those who really want
homes. Each tract is not tonly to be
laid out and planted to fruit trees, but
we are building the barns and the
roads that go with the homes. We
will establish our own telephone SER
vice, electric lights and water supply.
At Sheridan we have secuerd ground
for fruit storage warehouse and will
later build canning factory. The
land is in the center of an ideal mar
ket and Portland, Salem and the coast
are but few hours distant. The
Southern Pacific furnishes excellent
train service.
