Be ADJUSTED soon
Hearing in Macon, February
24th

Monday, February "a is the date as
signed for further hearing in the case
cf Warlick Bros. Co. in bankruptcy,
before the United States court at Ma
con, at which time certain creditors
who, at the recent hearing, made OBJ
lection to the proposed composition
settlement, will formally file their
objections.
At the hearing last Thursday in
Macon, delay in the proceedings of the
case was brought about by the filing
of objections of certain minority cred
itors to the proposed settlement of
forty per cent offered, although the
majority thus interested had expressed
willingness to accept the firms prop
osition. Ten days was allowed the
objecting creditors to file formally
with the court the grounds of their
protest, which had the effect of de-
laying further proceedings until the
date mentioned.
Mr.. w. E. Warlick returned from
Macon yesterday, and expressed the
hope that final adjudication of the
bankruptcy proceedings would be had

FIGHT CONTINUES
IN Streets OF
DOOMED CAPITAL
NO ARMISTICE is GRANTED
Diaz viii Make 1t a Finish
Fight

Mexico City, Feb. Is. - The capitals
hopes for peace based on the British
legations midnight announcement Of
the resignation of President Maderc,
fell fiat today. Madero declared this
morning he had not resigned and had
no present intention of taking any
such action, although he was willing
to make any personal sacrifice which
he was convinced was for his coun-
try's good.
The British legations announce
ment appeared to have been founded
on misinformation as to the result Of
the peace efforts of Francisco de la
Barra and other prominent men.
Ambassador Wilson and Pedro Las
curain. the Mexican foreign minister,
were in conference for several hours,
during the night. Their efforts %
arrange an armistice were vain, how
ever, Diaz the rebel leader, refused
absolutely to hear of peace until
President Madero and his cabinet had
resigned.
Diaz's firmness in this respect was
indicated by the activity of his gum
ners, who continued the bombardment
at intervals during the night. Aft 9r
dawn they increased their fire until
it was more violent than at any pre-
vious stage of the seven days lighting
Most of those in Mexico City who
knew President Madero's constancy of
purpose and stubbornness were pes
simistic today regarding his resigna-
ton. Others, however, believed he
would yield to persistent demands
made by men high in public life.
Francisco de la Barra, former pro-
visional president, played the part of
peacemaker today and promised to
become as notable in this crisis as he
was in the adjustment of the difficult
ties of the Madero revolution, which
terminated in the overthrow of Por>
firio Diaz
