Another Armi stice.
Ell Paso, Tex, May 12.-With Juarez
in their possession, the Mexican In
surrectos set up their provisional gov
eminent and Francisco l. Madero an
nounced his cabinet.
The members are: Dr. Vasquez
Gomez, minister of foreign relations;
Venus Tiano CarranZa, minister OF
war; Gustavo Madero, brother OF the
rebel leader, minister OF finance;
F'rederico Gonzales Cara, minister OF
the interior; Pine Suarez, minister OF
Justice; Juan Sanchez Azcona, secre-
tary to the president.
The announcement of the cabinet
appointments followed a meeting OF
the chiefs and advisers in Madero's
Headquarters 1t was decided that Sec
rotary of War Carranza will have
charge of the railways and telegraphs;
Secretary of the Interior Cara will be
f, in charge of the mail service, and Sec
rotary of the Treasury Madero will
direct the affairs of the custom house.
The insurrecto cabinet will at once
devote it's enerbies to seeking recog-
milton from the various foreign gov
ernments.
The captured city was opened to the
public from Ell Paso and thousands
focked to the rebel capital of Mexico.
Automobiles, bicycles, street cars and
every known method of transportation
was used.
While the town was filled with sight
seers a panic was created when one
or two of the Madero soldiers, who
had been given drink by American
visitors, became boisterous and start
ed firing their Weapons. Several wo-
men began to scream and run, while
men fought to gel out of the way. The
situation was tense for a short time,
but the insurrecto commander arrest
ed the disturbers and soon had quiet
restored.
Peace talk is still under way and,
every effort is being made by Braniff |
and Obregon, the two go-betweens, to |
induce Diaz to call a truce temper |
arily.
With the insurrectos in possession |
of Juarez, the orders having been is |
sued to the United States troops to |
permit them to import provisions and |
Medical supplies, they are not anxious
to start an offensive campaign at once, |
but having knowledge that General |
Rabago and federal reinforcements are
coming from Chihuahua, Orozco and !
almost the entire force now in JuareZ, |
together with all forces he can call in
from the south, will leave to meet
Rabago and give battle. Obregon and
Braniff are attempting to have the
federals hold Rabago back while the
peace negotiations are continued. Ma
dero is willing to reopen them, and it I
may be that an armistice will be
agreed to in a very few hours. Like
all insurrecto matters, however, such
a statement is merely a guess
Colonel E. z. Steever, commanding
the United States border guard, was
advised by the war department that he
might permit food and medical sup
plies to be sent to the insurrectos in
Juarez. This settles a question that
has been troubling the insurrectos and
people of Ell Paso.
The attitude of the rebels on the
question of the resignation of Presi-
dent dab hardly has crystallized yet.
DR.. Vasquez Gomez, one of the rebel
peace commissioners, declared it was
still the paramount consideration on
which all prospects for peace hinged.
The rebels have taken the stand that
their demand that President Diaz
make public merely his intention OF
resigning has been met with such a
vague and naughty reply that they
now will demand the fixing of the J
exact time for his retirement.
With reference to the contention of |
the government that INSTRUMENTATION |
In the Madero ranks provoked the at |
tack on JuareZ and that General Ma |
dero is not in control of his soldiers, |
the rebels openly charge trickery on |
the part of the government to dis |
seminate the opinion that a state Of !
anarchy is prevalent in the republic |
and that, therefore, it would be fatal |
for President Diaz to abdicate under |
such circumstances.
The rebels maintain that they are |
asking merely for steps toward
Gradual readjustment OF the admin |
istration of the republic and they be-
lieve the automatic transfer of the |
power to their own political party |
soon will follow.
