ferring for two hours in Buffalo June
16, with Rafael Zubaran and Luis Ca

gates, told them why they could not
agree to an armistice; why only a
man prominent in the constitutional
list ranks will be accepted by them
for the provisional presidency and.

constitntionalist army would settle
the Mexican problem soon il left un-
