Senor Carbajal early today asked
for a conference with Provisional
President Madero and It was known
he had received long telegram from

new instructions.
The most optimistic feature Of tho
days developments is that Senor Car
baial has been vested with plenary
powers and is authorized to sign the
peace agreement on certain conditions
What these terms are, Of course, has
been matter OF much secrecy, but
the original demand of the insurrectos
that they allowed to name fourteen
governors of the twenty-seven states
and that they be represented in a
new cabinet by four members of their
party, has not been received with en-
despite the fact that the question Of
the resignation OF President Dlaz has
been shclved a sa result of Minister
Limantour's explanation.
