Washington, March 2O-Peace is as
sured in the republic of Mexico within
the present week if certain influences
now at work toward that end prove
effective. With the arrival in Mexico
City Of Senor Jose Yves Limantour,
minister of finance, President Diaz will

is expected will result in the announce
ment within three or four days of a
reorganized cabinet
Minister Limantour will present an
explanation of the demands of the rev.
olutionists and the changes in the Of
fetal family Of President Diaz as we'll
as the institution of certain reforms
are contidentially expected to appease
the insurgents.
In the meantime, President Taft,
who is here, will confer with Ambas-
sador De La Barra and there is good
ground for the assumption that the
troops now concentrated in Texas i'm
mediately will begin series of maneu-
vers and return shortly to their posts.
Besides the proposals which Senor
Limantour is known to be bearing to
President Diaz it is reported that the
wishes of prominent insurgent SYM
pathfzers in various parts of the re-
public have become known to Presi-
dent Diaz and will play no small part
In the reorganization of his cabinet.
Senor Corral's health, according to
recent advices, indicate that he will
abandon public life and seek recuper-
alton in Europe. This will leave a
vacancy in the vice presidency which
it is considered may not be filled as
the minister of foreign affairs during
the vacancy in the Office of the vice
president also is invested with the
character of the latter Office

dates, nominated by conventions yet
to be called, will take place. This is
the only way to save Mexico"
"Limantour is to be president only
for little while. Then the candidates
will go before the people and after
that representative of the majority
Of all voters will be president. My

"The conferences here in New York
were held in secret. l cannot say
