ond son Of the multi-milionaire. will
be married to Miss Annie Douglas Gra-

MEXICO CITY HAS
REPORT D|AZ WILL
QUIT IF WAR ENDS
Rumor Has 1t He Will Leave
for Europe as Soon as
Peace Is Declared.

MEXICO CITY, April 29.-Reports are
current that President Diaz will resign
May 5. These are denied in responsible
quarters, but a report that seems we'll
founded is that Diaz will resign thirty
days after the consummation of peace,
and will embark for Europe within
thirty days after resigning. But should
the peace plans fail, he will not resign,
nor will he so long as the war con-
tinues.
De la Barra declines to discuss the
demands of Madero, but there is good
reason to believe the cable report is
true that the government is baking at
the S20,000,000 clause. This agrees with
the belief that Braniff carries a check
for $l5, 200, 900 to show Madero that the
Government is in good faith.
1t 1 sauthoritatively stated the gov
ernment is unwilling to renew the
armistice at the expiration of the pres
ent extension. and that should nego-
tiations fail within the limit of the ex-
tended armistice, the war will be fought
TO a finish. De la Barra said today that
the consul at Corunna had been asked
to report at once the text of the pur-
ported interview with Corral, charging
the revolution to Americans. Until this
report is received. no statement will be
made.
Ell Diario del Hogar, a morning daily,
reopened this morning after the second
SUSPENSION this year. 1t was closed in
March because it Viciously attacked
Americans alleged to be stirring up the
revolution.
Jacob Kanser, an American, was re-
leased from the penitentiary this after
noon under bonds. He was arrested in
Michoacan in February, while foment-
ing revolution under the guise of SELL
ing horse medicine. His liberty is pro-
Visional, and he is not allowed to leave
Mexico City.
Six hundred rebels have demanded the
surrender Of Tehuacan, a winter resort
in the State of Puebla. The town Is
guarded by 200 troops under General
Hernandez, who refused to surrender,
and fighting is going on.

Secretary Meyer disapproved the ver-

for promotion TO rear admiral, and Is

slider the records of candidates for pro-

in passing his examination Is consider
ed by his friends as another vindication
by his colleagues in the navy over the
disapproval of the recent court-martial
findings by Secretary Meyer.
The examining board, which acted
yesterday, was selected by Secretary
Meyer personally after he had disap-
proved a similar board named by Rear
Admirals Nicholson and Potter, on the
ground that one member of it was
known to be friendly to Captain knight.
The future career of Captain knight
is being watched with the greatest in

regarded the recent court-martial pro-

of a persecution.
Likewise, many members of Congress
have taken a deep interest in the case,

Wrights Win Victory
In French Litigation

PARIS, April 29.-The Wright broth
ers won a decided victory in the civic
tribunal today in their attempt to prove
that they control the basic patents on
aeroplanes. The court announced that
II would appoint three experts to de-
eide whether the Wrights first used the
combination of warping wings and YER
ticaI rudder The court overruled the
contention of the Bleriot manufacturers
that the Wright patents went by default
because they were not exploited. The
Judge said In his ruling. that II the
Wrights failed to exploit their patents.
il was plain that this was because of
insufficient funds to do so.

authenticity of the interview purport-
ing to come from Vice President Cor

the United States was helping the revo-

This interview had stirred the officials
of the department here more deeply
than anything that has come out since
