As President Of Mexico

peace was not dream and they have
held to this view more or less hope
fully, despite frequent discouraging
reports.
Jose Vasconcelas, DR.. Gomez's as,
sistant, who took the place OF Gomez
as diplomatic agent in Washington
when the latter departed to join Ma
dero, telegraphed to the editor OF Ell
Pals at the City Of Mexico:
I appeal to the patriotism Of your
newspaper to deny rumors of Ameri-
can intervention as up to the present
time no such danger exists. Ameri-
can anti-foreign administrations would
be highly improper and unjustifiable."

Bile invasion OF Mexican soil, Brig.
Gen. William w. Wortherspoon, head
of the army war college, explained
that it WAS the business OF the war
college, along lines similar to the
navy board of strategy, to plan camr
paigns In time of peace as well as in
war. and that from time to time,
| practically every country on the globe
is selected as the scene for hypotheti-
cal military operations.

sCI1 i $Or' M MEAICO, May S--- with the
outline of the Diaz message to the
people in their possession, friends OF
the resolution are wondering today
if Madero will acceed to the terms
There Is no guarantee that Diaz will
keep his word and some of the radi
calls believe the whole scheme is to
get the rebels to lay down their arms
and then re-establish the Diaz dynasty
with the army. The revised draft
of the document was considered by
the cabinet today. In 1t Diaz insists
that he has always acted for the bene-
fit Of the whole people. He says it
has never been his intention to inter
fere with progress.
Rebels Celebrate.

are still celebrating the announce
ment that Diaz will resign as soon
as peace is assured. Madero has is

Willing to Resign.
CITY OF MEXICO. May s.-Gen
Porfirio Diaz last night issued a mani
festo to the people OF Mexico declaring
his intention to resign the presidency
as soon as peace is restored. In this
manner the president has virtually ac-
ceded to the demands Of francesca |.
Madero that he make announcement
of such intention.
AS to when peace is actually re.
stored, Gen. Diaz reserves the right
to be the Judge. In the words of the
manifesto, 1t will be when, according
10 the dictates Of my conscience,
am sure that my resignation will moi
be followed by anarchy"
The president said his determine
