MEXICO CITY INCLINED TO
FEAR FAILURE OF PEACE

Mexico City, April G.-In ignorance
Of the character of the measures the
government may be taking to effect
an agreement of peace with the rebels,
unofficial Mexico was inclined to be
possimistic tonight regarding the
immediate future. Both Mexicans
and foreigners who long to see the
end of the revolution yet hone that
the unofficial negotiations auspicious-
ly inaugurated at Washington Dy For
eign Minister de la Barra on the eve
OF his departure for Mexico, and DR..
Vasuucz Gomez, may be continued,
but there Is a growing fear of fall
ure.
one report tonight was that the
government had entered into an
agreement that a commission of three
mon should be named by each side to
formulate terms of peace, but at
the department of foreign relations
no confirmation or denial could be
obtained.
According to this report however,
General Juan Hernandez who has
been in command of the forces at
Chihuahua, but who has been sup
planted by General Lauro Viller, has
been named as the head of the gov
ornment's commission. 1t Is also
said that General Garcia Cueller, who
commanded the fedorals in the battle
OF Casas Grandes, will be a member
of the commission.
At none OF the government offices
was il possible 10 obtain any state
ment that would indicate progress
toward a cessation Of hostilities, al
though II was frequently denied that
pcace is an impossbility In one or
two quarters it was hinted that it was
probability.
Local newspapers continue to urge
the necessity for some sort of an
agreement. The Mexican Herald, es-
peeially emphatic in its arguments Tor
a compromise. declared that a fall
ure on the part of the government
and the rebels TO get together will
result in g civil war that will be the
ruin of the country.
Optimism was the dominant note
In all circles of the capital. but the
news received this afternoon that
Francisco |. Madero had moved his
headquarters to san Andres and had
frightened the lines about Chihuahua
had the effect of producing pessi-
mistic discord The government may
yet he attemuting to effect an agree
ment. but that such has not been
contaminated is q natural assumption
when the silence of the departments
Is considered,
Contrary to expectations, the APP
rlication of President Ramon
Corrall for q leave of absence so he
may visit Germany because of his
lll-health was not discussed In con-
gress. The matter went over until
tomorrow. and one report is that
when II Is thrown open for discussion
there will be opposition.
II is reported that group of depu-
ties Is preparing to oppose granting
the request and as substitute VIII
demand the presidents reslgna-
ton. Their argument is said to be
that If the presidents health Is
as bad Is reported II VIII be impossl-
bic for him to return for many
months and that his resignation is
preferable.
The post of minister Of the interior
Is stil vacant. Teodore de Hesa. the
governor of Vera Cruz. who arrived
here last night. today spent some
time In conference with the presi-
dent and II ls generally believed he

DOCTOR GOMEZ ADVISES
MADERO TO COMPROMISE

Washington, April 6.-The adage of
striking when the iron Is hot applies
to the necessity for arranging peace
in Mexico now, in the opinion of DR..
Vasquez Gomez. head of the confiden-
tial agency of the Mexican revolution
lists here.
DR. Gomez pointed out that II was
most opportune TO treat for peace,
that a month from now. possibly
two months. the revolution probably
will have reached such proportions
as to make nothing but complete
triumph and the capture of Mexico
City acceptable.
Dr. Gomez said, however, his con-
stituents were willing to do anything
within reason and does not wish to
be accused of undue aggressiyensss III
pursuing the insurrection. For this
reason. he added, they would meet
any overtures for peace half way.
He was careful to indicate, in an
interview today, that his advices from
Mexico showed the insurrection had
been spreading and that the insurgent
forces were not relaxing their acti-
vities because of peace talk.
DR. Gomez said that should negoti-
alions be launched, satisfactory ar
mistice could be arranged. He believ-
ed that although the insurgent move
ment was directed at the administra-
ton of President Diaz. they wovld
be content with systematic revision
of electoral laws. He said that inas-
much as President Dlaz had endorsed
the principle of no reelection, he
might voluntarily rellnquish In the
course of a year the post which he
had held so long.
DR.. Gomez Is expecting to be In
communication with Francisco |. Ma
dero. the rebel chief In few days,
when definite understanding con-
cerning peace win be forthcoming.
