MRS. DODGE WAS
CONVICTED OF
MANSLAUGHTER
DIAZ WON'T RESIGN
IN PRESENT UNREST
That Was Asserted Last Night by His
Minister of Finance--He Demands
Terms of Insurrectos' Call
for Resignation.

Mexico City, May 49, That General
Diaz viii not leave the presidency while
the country is in its present state of
unrest was asserted last night by FL
nance Minister Jose Yves Limantor.
He also said that Diaz stood ready to
state in more explicit terms than those
contained in his recent manifesto, If
necessary, his attitude with reference
to his retirement. The president, he
said, had demanded to know from his
opponents Thea terms in which they ex-
pect him to announce his willingness to
resign, and is waiting reply from
them.
The presidents declaration of last
Sunday was made in good faith, Mr.
Limantour said. There was no subters
fuge in it. He meant what he said, that
he would lay down the reins of govern
ment when he could do so without dam
ger that anarchy might follow.
Minister Limantour declared also, that
following the rejection of the presidents
manifesto by the revolutionists, a mes
sage was sent to Judge Carabaial ask
ing that AIadero and his followers state
IN exactly what terms they desire the
announcement made that the president
was willing to resign.
This message should have been in
Madero's hands for at least three days,
but up to last night no reply had been
returned. Judge Carabajal will wait in
FL Paso day or two longer, under
instructions to accept and transmit any
further proposal the rebels may desire
to make.
The next step to be taken by the gov
ernment appears now to hinge on the
receipt or non-receipt of a further pro-
posal from the revolutionists. Nothing
further is to be begun by government
officers in the direction OF peace con-
ferences
The Importance of the decision of the
American government to permit arms
and ammunition to cross into Mexico
is fully appreciated by the government
Throughout the insurrection, the great
est handicap to the rebels has been the
difficulty Of procuring rifles and am
munition. This decision viii greatly
simplify Madero's task of arming the re-
cruits whom he expects to flock by
thousands to his standard on his pro-
jected march to the capital
The war department yesterday learned
that Louis Moya and formidable band
Of fnsurrectos were planning an immedi-
ate attack upon Torreon, the Coahuila
city at the edge of the rich laguna cot
ten region An unsuccessful attack was
made on Torreon a few days ago.
General Loioero, in command Of the
small body of federals, has made every
possible preparation to defend the city.
