DIAZ STANDS PAT.
Will Resign, But Not Until Peace Is Restored in Mexico.

The result of this private initiative was, as is known, an l agreement for the suspension of 1 hostilities concluded between the general in command of the fed eral forces at Juarez and the
 rebel leaders of that region, that during the truce thus arranged,
 the proposed conditions or basis on which order might be rcStOr ed.
 The government named a delegate in the person of dis tinguished justice of the supreme
 court, to whom instructions were
 given conceived in as broad q
 spirit ofliberality and concord
 as was compatible with the dig nifty of the republic and the stability of the very peace which it was sought to bring about.
 The governments good will and evident desire to make ample concessions and afford effective guarantees for the execution of the intentions were, perhaps, interpreted by the rebel chiefs as signs of weakness or of Slend- CT faith in the justice of it's cause, In any case the negotiations came to naught owning to the prepoSterOuSness of the demand formulated by the representa- rives of the revolutionists as a declaration of their own terms, a demand absolutely inconsis- tent with all ideas of legality.
 If the demand of the revOlu- tionistS' that the president of the republic should resign, in tine midst of the present difficulties were to be allowed, it would ex- pose the nation to all the con tigencies and dangers of new elections, which according to constitutional provisions, would have to be held at once, while political passions are in efferve- Sence and before order could be re-established throughout the i

Blazing a New Path in Shoe Selling
Cost Plus SO

VIOU folks who buy shoes, ponder
on this! Read every word
You are paying for your shoes
ten, twenty, maybe thirty per cent.
over net basic cost. The exact amount
of this percentage depends on Uhere
and when you buy, and from Uhon,.
Because the Retailerfeels he must
have twenty per cent. average profit
on his goods to keep him happy. And
the average Manufacturer wants ten
to fifteen.
Now comes the Regal Shoe Company,
with four enormous factories, employ
ing over 5000 hands, making nearly
tpo million pairs of $3.50 to $3.50
shoes last year-and offers you it's en-
tire output at just exactly Fire Per
Cent. Profit over measured, sworn-to,
cost.
Think of that! Five per cent. above
certified cost, instead of possibly ff-
teen, twenty, thirty per cent. above
parable cost. And this from the same
company that gave you the Buzz Saw
expose of cheap soles, and The
Window of the Sole"-the same Com
pany that eighteen years ago started
the Factory -to-C Consumer plan and to-
daysells its output in 43 States through
nearly 1000 Regal Shoe Stores and

This new "5% Profit" departure in
Regal Shoe selling comes from the one

always given you not only advanced
styles but advanced economic methods
of selling.
The Regal Cost Plus so" plan
means for us larger volume of busi-.

emancipation from the "Get-Uhat-

Itmeans that you need no longer be
the slave of trade-custom that arbi-
trarily fixes prices at the selling end
instead of at the making end.
Five per cent. above cost means
for you-a direct, positive, knolDn
saving in shoe money that you can see
with your eyes and feel with your
hands. 1t means positiUe, accurate
system of buying and selling that op-
crates with exact justice and exact
economy in every locality on the map.

Spectacular Fire On Woodward At
Noon Causes Much Excitement,
and Attracts Great Throng.

A brief but spectacular fire In tho
Ernst Kern drygoods store, Nos. l62-
l64 Woodward-ave., provided all sorts
OF excitement Tor thousands OF per-
sons who gathered about the struc-
ture, Tuesday noon.
Members OF the Arm think the dam
age will amount to about $4,000,
most of which was occasioned by
smoke and water. The fire ragged al
time when downtown workers were
released for luncheon, and, conse
quently, the streets were congested
with people, who forgot all about
eating IN their anxiety to see tn
fire.
Traffc on street car lines was com
pletely tied up. both on Woodward
and Gratiotaves., and the police ex
perienced great difficulty in handling
the tremendous crusch Of humanity
The fire started In the stock room
on the fifth floor of the building. II
was first discovered by employees re-
turning from luncheon. They shouted
u warning and employees on the other
floors filed out without any excite
ment. No persons were injured. j.
l.. Hudson's biz store Is directly
across Gratict-ave. from the Kern
store and, consequently, Mr.. Hudson
took deep personal interest in the
matter, He war out on the street
bare-headed. watching that the ire
did not threaten his own interests.
Merchants on Gratiot-ave were con
siderably incensed, because the po-
lice roped the streets on and would
not let the crowds use Gratiot-ave
as a tnoroughfare. The merchants
complained that the ropes were keep.
ing trade away from their stores. The
reply OF the officers was that they
were to see that order was maintain
ed and that citizens were kept out Of
the danger zone.
The flre was confined entirely to
the stock room, but much damage
was caused ty water and smoke seep
ing through the flooring to other parts
OF the building -.
The fire itself was confined to thu
northeast portion Of the fifth floor.
The damage Is said to be fully GOV

r. n. Fenner, IS Years Old, Hired by

Thirty-five dollars, or about $3.50
for every time he took the trail,
was the sum he received for his
services as amateur detective, r. n.
Fenner, aged Is, No. Ala Lafayette
blvd, confided during his cross-exam'
ination In the divorce case OF John d.
Case against his wife, Nellie, which
was resumed in Judge Murphy's court,
Tuesday. According to the boy he
was employed by Mrs. Case to shadow
her husband.
The boy denied that dime novels
had inspired him as a sleuth, but said
he had given his services to Mrs. Case
because "a gentleman friend" had
told him that she was having trouble
with her husband. He said ne felt
sorry for her.
"Once saw Case and blonde wo-
man go into the alley near Cases
blacksmiths shop and they did not
come out until 1890" he declared
dramatically.
During his cross-examination Tues
day morning, his memory was rather
clouded regarding the location OF the

abused and nagged him and has often
treated him coldly and indifferently
