OF the spectators were inclined to
question the decision of the referee
on the fall, but Mitchell was satisfied
that he was down. The hold was one

tend to exhaustion.
Mitchell's habit of sticking close to
the mat failed to save him when the
wrestlers went on for the second

methods, the Bennington grappier

TRUCE At MEXICO
CITY LASTS BUT
FEW HOURS
BeIligerents Had Agreed to Sus.
pend H0stilities
MAOeR0 WON'T RESIGN
Won't Vacate Presidency and Says
He is Able to Put Down
Rebellion.

Mexico City, Feb. 17.-Hostilities
were resumed with renewed fierce
ness in the Mexican capital yesterday
after a truce which lasted only few
hours. The armistice, signed at 2
O'Clock yesterday morning by the
representatives OF both sides agree
ING 10 suspend operations Tor "a
hours, was broken before noon. Soon
The sound OF heavy cannonadlng ana
the whlrr OF machine guns announced
the return OF the federal troops to
their posts in front oil the arsenal.
II appeared as though the woras OF
Maoero and Diaz might prove pro.
phetlc, ana that this Tune the battle
would be TO finish. President Ma
dero yesterday morning reiterated
ms refusal TO comply with the sug-
gestlons of the senators that he re-
sign. He declared that he was sun
able TO dominate and that, gwen
Time, he would crush the rebel
forces.
Gen Diaz had not shown himself TO
be. greatly in favor or the armistice,
but consented to it out OF respect
for the efforts OF the American EN-.
oassador and the ministers OF the
powers to bring about a cessation OF
nostilities until the foreigners and
other noncombatants, still within the
zone OF the fighting, could be remoy-
ed 10 position of comparative safe
~. Diaz regarded the truce as mere
ly a delay in the accomplishment of
his fixed purpose TO drive Madero out
OF the presidency. The fighting Sat
urday had undoubtedly gone in favor
OF the rebels, who had resisted all as
saults against them, had received in
to their ranks several hundred feder-
al deserters, and had obliged the fed
eral commanders to admit that, for
the present at least. the rebel posi-
ton was impregnable.
Gen Huerta, commander of the gov
eminent troops, a hard fighter. who
has been through many campaigns,
also was opposed to the armistice
and chafed under the terms which il
imposed upon him. Nor did he will
ingly agree to the sending of a large
body OF his forces back to the fed
eral base near the national palace
Saturday night. President Maderos
attitude was one of evaporation, but
as he had requested the American
government to withhold Intervention
he could do not less than consent to
an armistrice, when the question was
submitted directly to him. But he
let 1t be known without equivocation
that he was determined to retain the
presidency.
