was preparing for war.
lie announced officially he intend

dition against it being possible
agreement for another armistice or
peace brought promptly.
"An attack on Chihuahua is the
next step in our campaign, and it is
inevitable" said Senior Madero. Mex
leo City is our goal and all that lies
between us and it must fall into our
hands. However. l am hopeful for
peace, and | trust our adversaries
Will see the futility of opposing us
without the cost of any more blood
shed. Chihuahua is great city
which all along has had to bear the
heaviest burden of the war. Her peo-

lated in the midst of wide desert
lands with innumerable mining camps
dependent upon it, the city now has

In line with his purpose of moving
q large force on to Chihuahua to
operate in conjunction with insur-
rectos already near the city, Senor
Madero directed the repairing Of the
Mexican National railroad southwark
from Juarez shall be begun tomorrow.
The insurrectos consulted with the
railroad people, but the latter refused
to undertake repairing the road, al
though consent was given to allow
the revolutionists to commence.
1t probably will require ten days to
complete the road to a point near the
city, but insurrecto troops will go by
train more than half way before the
entire line is finished. Telegraph
wires also will be strung up to keep
the advancing insurrectos in touch
with headquarters at Juarez. Senor
Madero said If the federal troops
permitted it he would allow trains of
supplies to be taken into the city for
the relief OF non-combatants, who
are known to be suffering intensely.
Senior Madero also confirmed dis
patches from Chihuahua City that he
was attempting to organize and
bring under his direct command all
the independent bands in Durango,
Zacatecas, Aguas Calientes and other
places extending to the enylrons OF
Mexico City. iHe declared the organ

BULL FIGHT CELEBRATES

and the blackened stains that still
mark the place where some lnsur-

ton horses did not soften the cement
seats.
General Pascual Orosco acted as
master of ceremonies. To him the
toreador bowed and asked permis-
sion to kill. And toward him were
/ directed the shouts of hundreds or
his companions In arms.
After the first killing a number of
Americans left. Long before that,
any resemblance an American might
! have traced to the crowds at base
ball game had gone. The horses We're
still untouched however. and their
! picatodrs brought them out for
the second bull. After one or two
maddened dashes at the red cloaks of
the matadors, he rushed toward one
of the blindfolded crowbaits that bore
a picador. Twice he gored the Tanks
of IN helpless animal. Then he turn
ed to another hourse, so thin that II
seemed hardly possible he could bear
the weight of a picador, while the
first animal. bleeding and staggering,
was led out of the ring there to be
mereifully put out of his misery.
Again the long sharp horns of the
bull found their mark. Through the
gaping wound the horses entrails pro-
truded. Then it. too, having served
its ghastly purpose, was led from the
ring.
The handarillas pranced before the
bull with their rosette covered darts.
The animal beloved with pain as the
bandarillas thrust them into his neck
and danced out of danger.
Once a bandarilia slipped and fell
as he attempted to send home his
darts. His swarthy skin became gray
as he rolled over and over in mad
effort to get beyond the reach OF
the deadly horns. few Americans,
sickeAed by the performance, almost
wished luck to the bull. But the ami
NAL turned toward the red cloak OF

Then came the toreacor, red flag in
one hand, sword in the other. A few
furious rushes by the bull and the
sword went home between his shoul-
der blades
Two horses were brought in, rope
was attached to the heels of the well
tering animal and he was dragged
away. A peon with shovel and sand
cleared away the blood that had fur

Then the pleased crowd filed out.

DE LA BARRA PREDICTS
GOOD NEWS FOR TODAY

Mexico City. May l6.-Peace nego-
tiations progressed another stage at
the hands of the president and his
ministers today and tonight the Off
cials are again awaiting further
communication from Judge Carbajal.
In spite of an abscess on the jaw
with which the executive is affected,
following the extraction of "A tooth,
the ministers gathered twice at the
presidents home and transmitted a
communication which Minister de La
Barra declared would in his belief
mean the cessation of hostilites.
He was shown press despatch
from Juarez stating that an armistice
would be arranged within twenty-four
hours He smiled and said.
II cannot discuss 1t now, but | be-
lieve there will be some good news to
be announced tomorrow"
Albuquerque morning journal. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1903-1926, 1911-05-17

I 1t was a quiet day in Juarez. but
the fact that peace talk was i'm the
alr was quite evident. Provisional
President Madero discussed with his
cabinet the proposals which he had
made to Judge Carbajal in his con-
terence last night and the cabinet APP
proved. During the day Judge Car
| ha1al received encouraging news
from Mexico City. which made it pos
sible for both sides to admit that
peace was almost an established fact
ana that nationwide armistice
would be declared within twenty-four
hours. One condition of such an
armistice would be that the rebels
could use the federal telegraph lines
ana railway lines on parity with
the federal government where they
now control the situation.
The minor conditions of peace in
clude the pensioning of soldiers, the
payment of indemnities out of the
public treasury, and arrangements for
the reconstruction and repair of pub
lie utilities.
The question of the resignation OF
President Diaz has ben automatically
avoided. The revolutionists obtained
their demand that some public am
nouncement be forthcoming from the
president as to his intention to resign
when peace was restored. This
came in a manifesto from General
Diaz himself and was satisfactorily
amplified recently by Minister Imam
tour in an interview to the Associat-
ed Press. The feeling is that General
Diaz will give way to Senior da La
Barra as provisional president within
two or three months and that a gem
eral election will follow about
month or two later. The PROFESSIONALS
VIII hold office until state elections
shall have been arranged.
The negotiations. which have almost
come to successful conclusion have
been effected without much parley
and almost without the aid of the
ever present go-betweens. Rafael
hernandez, a cousin of Francisco |.
Madero, Jr., transmitted to the fed
eral government last Saturday some
propositions of Provisional President
Madero. DR.. Vasquez Gomez, head
or the rebel peace commission, has
been IN communication with the gov
eInment about some propositions
along the same line. The insurrectos
Iirst demanded four cabinet portfolios
anu ipui teen SONSfnOfSnlpS, Dut IN
his conference with Judge Carbaial
last night Provisional President Ma
dero finally was persuaded to make
some concessions and he declared he
would agree t6 peace if the rebels
could name three portfolios those OF
war, justice and gubernacion, and
have fourteen governors. Judge Car
bajal was inclined to offer but ten
governors, but it is believed he is hav-
ing little difficulty in pressing for
fourteen.
In the naming of three men for the
cabinet posts the rebels have picked
persons whom thoy know are accepta-
bic to the federal government, and il
was this sort of willingness and con-
cession on the part of the rebels in
the negotiations which early gave
promise of their successful outcome.
The tnsurrectos have not strengthened
their demands. despite their military
successes, for 1t Is belle ed they wish
to retain popular support, especially
I'm view of the coming elections, and
wish to give evidence that they are not
over dical.

Washington, May 16,--Secretary
MacVeagh today invited popular sub
scriptions to a s50.0O0,OO0 issue of
government bonds, to reimburse the
treasury general fund for expendi-
ture on account os the Panama canal.
Treasury officials expect the loan
will be largely oversubscribed and in
distributing the new securities the
governments intention is to give pref
erence to smaller bidders.
The new securities will bear three
per cent interest. payable quarterly;
will be free from all national, state
or municipal taxation and will be in
denominations of 500, $500 and ST.
coo. They will be dated June /, 1911,
and will be payable in fifty years.
BY provision of the law the bonds
will not be available to national banks
as the basis of circulation. Inasmuch
as they are the first the United States
ever has issued with such restric-
ton, much interest Is attached to the
price they will bring.
According to law they cannot be
sold at less than par. The premium
which they can command will reflect
the national credit of the United
States as compared with that Of the
nations of Europe.
Inasmuch as the postal savings bank
law fixed the par value Of postal
bank bond bearing two and ane-half
per cent interest at 500, 1t Is agreed
that the three per cent Panama ca
nal bonds must bring more than par
How much more. Is coniectured. The
estimates range from slightly above
par to 103
Checks and postal orders will be
accepted for the new bonds-some-
thing which never has been done be-
fore. Although the issue is designed
for private bankers, national banks
which bid for the bonds viii be al
lowed to deposit them as security for
government deposits.
