 Mexico City.-That an armistice be- tween the government and the Consti- tutionalists was signed Wednesday night and that hostilities will be sus- pended at once throughout the repub- lie, was the statement given out by Gen. Eduardo ltudbide, governor of the Federal District in the name of President Carbajal
 Governor ltngbidaI declared that the peace negotiations will be advanced upon basis ofgiyipg full guarantees to everybody
 Gen Antonio Rojas, 3 former revolu- tionary leader, who later became Federal chief, revblted Wednesday with 200 men of tie Federal troops stationed at Tacubaya, suburb of the capital The military authorities at once dispatched detachment of the Nineteenth regiment in pursuit. Rojas and his men were overtaken in the Santa Fe hills and completely routed.
 Fifty of the mutineers were captured and brought here. General Roias and Colonel Alatriste, with about 100 men. are being closely, followed by the gov ernmerN troops. 5szl
 The concentratioM of Federal troops in the capital Is allaying the fears of the people regarding an attack on the city by Zapata. Eight trains loaded with troops arrived, here Wednesday afternoon from Queretaro. The gov ernment expects to.bring into the city about 40,000 men.aA
 The 300 men in the advance guard of Gen. Alvara Obregdn's 5000 Constitu- tionalists are at Tala, an hours ride from the capital and the remainder of this army is near Quaretaro. 120 miles 10 the north, where it is assembling for peaceful advance on Mexico City.
 General Obregon, a staunch sup porter of General 1,arranza, probably will be the first cOb com mander to arrive here, and his force is believed to be sufficient to insure the capital against internal disorders
 The impression prevails here that the Hnerta Congress will not meet again, l. '. that i' Q ne Vt session in the Chamber of Deputies will be that of the members of the Madero Congress. dissolved by Huerth last October.

Action Taken in Pulaski Chancery Court by Geo. W. Rogers

 ifINn RNnl,

Little Rock
 Complaint has been filed against Earl w. Hodges, secretary of state, and James Lawson and A. l.. Ludwig. in Chancery Court by George w. Rogers and Carl Hollis, who seek to enjoin Secretary Hodges from placing on the ballot for the September cleo tion the depositors' bank guaranty act, for which initiative petitions have been circulated. The complaint, while 1t does not specifically name each signer of the petitions, makes each of them party defendant.
 It is alleged that the petitions were not filed more than four months prior to the election, as is required by law, and for that reason, together with a number of others, the petitions should not be considered.
 The plaintiffs further allege that there are l5,831 signers whose names apear on the petition, and allege that so many of the names are irregular that the total number of legal signers is not more than 5000 or 5000, which is not enough.
 The complaint states that 26 per cent of the signers are not qualified voters, and for that reason the sigma lures are not legal; that more than 9, 300 of the names are signed by per szns other than those whose names ap- pear, which makes the signatures ille- gal.

Election of U. S. Senator in November.

Secretary of state Earle w Hod- ges says there is no question about the procedure in the election of the next United States Senator from Ar kansas. It was intimated on the floor of the Republican State Convention that the next election would be by the Legislature, but this is denied. The popular election amendment hay ing been ratified by the requisite ma jority of the state Legislatures, and duly promulgated it is now a part of the organic law. It is provided that until such time as the states may make specific provision for the cleo ton of United States Senators, they shall be elected at the same time as members of Congress in November. That being true, the nominations of James F. Clarke for the Democratic and Harry H. Myers for the Repub- licans. will be certified out to the var ious counties for the November cleo tion.
