DIAZ IS WILLI!TO CONCEDE ALL

Message to Congress Commits OldRuler to Many Things De-

manded by the Revo-lutionists.

Mexico City.—With civil -war rack-ing his domain from end to end,President Porflrlo Diaz, aged, infirm.ruler of Mexico, stood before th*Mexican Congress and declared hisreadiness to concede the main pointsdemanded by his revolting people.

Trembling with age and weakness,the ruler, In a scarcely audible voice,read his annual message to Congress,recommending the -reforms whichhave raised the red flag of revolutionin his dominions.

He declared that he bowed to the"public opinion" and concededthe main points urged by the revolu-tionists. His specific recommenda-tions were: "

Effective suffrage for all.No re-election to the presidency.Reform in local, provisional and

city government.A division of the large landed

estates.Subdued and silent the general

legislature and a brilliant gatheringof government officials listened to therenunciation of the iron tyrant. Nota sound interrupted the reading ofthe lengthy document, and when thePresident concluded a great sigh ofrelief was the only demonstration.Ministers, 'ambassadors and govern-ment;.officials -- declare ;tnat> tliey.isee;the" erfd :'of*:the*-\presen't-trouble'' vitfDiaz's terms of surrender. The whis-pered verdict as the ruler was as-sisted from the congressional hallwas that Diaz will resign immediate-ly upon the restoration of peace.

All M-exicp City, usually a riot- ofgayety of color, sank into sombergloom in the expectations of a pos-sible defiance by the President.Crowds gathered in the streets toawait the news from the Congress,and when the details of the messagewere announced they filed awaysilently, without demonstration.

JUSTICE O'GORMANELECTED SPUN

Noted New York Jurist WillSucceed Depew.

GETS THE INSURGENTS VOTES

Mriitp'Gbftnan -.- Made.a Fine Rocordon Supreme Bench of New York

City—For 30 Years One" ofTammany's Best Orators.

Albany, N. Y.—By- anxunanimousvote of 112 of 114 Democratic mem-bers of the Legislature, JusticeJames A. O'Gorman, of New York,was elected United States Senator tofill the vacancy caused by the expira-tion of the term of Chauncey M. De-pew. He is the first Democrat to besent to the Senate from the EmpireState since Edward Murphy waschosen in 1893.

Fifteen of the 30 insurgents re-mained out of the caucus which pre-ceded the election. All of them votedfor Justice O'Gorman on joint bal-lot. When the election was over,like Democrats of old , the insurgentsand regulars threw their hats in theair together and agreed to workshoulder to shoulder -for the accom-plishment of the important measureswhich have been sidetracked by theSenatorial squabble.

Confusion that almost approacheddisorder and thunderous demonstra-tions of relief marked the termina-tion of the -remarkable 'deadlock,which has held the Legislature prac-tically at a standstill for 74 days—10% weeks. The end of the long,wearing struggle came in the Councilroom of the City Hall, with the legis-lators, packed like sardines in a box,and with the Democratic leadersstanding by with eagle eye, worriedalmost to the last for fear their plansfor a settlement would at the finalmoment be upset.

A recess has been taken until April17 tO give Workmen a chance t6 re-pair the damaged Capitol. Meantimethe leaders will busy themselves withsome of the important administra-tion measures, ana it Is ¦expected thatwhen the lawmakers reconvene onthe day after Easter legislation willbe put through with a rush.

Governor Dix, whose business ad-ministration has been imperiled bythe deadlock, has expressed deep re-lief that the warfare has ceased. Hisexpressions of gratification havefound echoes in the statements ofpractically all the leaders, Republi-can as well as Democratic.

UNCLE SAM'S CASH BALANCE

Largest That Has Ever Been Held inTreasury.

Washington , D. C.—Uncle Sambalanced his books and counted hiscash Saturday and found the govern-ment on a paying basis, for the firsttime since July 1, 1910.

The Treasury began business forApril with a surplus of $3,000 ,000 onall ordinary accounts. There was acorresponding deficiency of morethan ?16,000 ,000 a year ago. Treas-ury officials attribute the favorablegains to rapidly increasing receiptsfrom internal revenue more than toany other cause. Customs receiptshave declined 513,000 ,000 , comparedwith a corresponding period a yearago _ .

THE WEAK, PREY OF THE STRONGGerman Chancellor Says Disarma-

ment is Impossible—Arbitra-tion Inadequate. "¦

Berlin. — Chancellor Von Both-mann-Hollweg, in the Reichstag, dis-cussed disarmament and internation-al arbitration, but without departingone iota from the well-known stand-point of the German government,often declared on former occasions.The imperial chancellor saw the chiefdifficulty in a disarmament agreementin the impossibility of supervision ofIndividual states. "Control overthese," he said, "I regard as abso-lutely impracticable. The mere at-tempt to control would have no otherresult than continual mutual distrustand universal turmoil. General dis-armament Is an insoluble problem solong as men are men.

"It will remain true," continuedthe Chancellor, "that the weak willhe the prey of the strong. If any na-tion feels that it is unable to Bpendcertain sums for defensive purposes,it will inevitably drop to the secondrank. There will always be a strong-er one ready to take Its place. WeGermans in our exposed situationcannot shut our eyes to this direreality only so far as we can main-tain peace.

"The nations, including Germany,"said the Chancellor, "have been talk-ing ' disarmament since the firstHague conference, but neither in Ger-many nor elsewhere has a practicalplan- been proposed. Great Britainwishes the' limitation of armaments,but simultaneously wants a superioror equal fleet. Any conference onthis subject is bound to be fruitless.No standard for a limitation can befound, and any conceivable proposalwould be shattered on the question ofcontrol."

America s Attitude.Count Von. KaniCz, conservative,

devoted the greater pari of his speechto American , affairs, contrasting . thespeech of Commander William S.Sims, of the American Navy, at theGuild Half , London, .which calledforth a reprimand from PresidentTaft, with the utterances of Congress-man Champ Clark concerning the an-nexation of Canada, saying:

"While an American naval officeris assuring England of the friend-ship of the United States a futurepresident of that nation is talking ofthe absorption of Canada."

Canadian reciprocity, he said, rais-ed the point of what compensatoryfavors were to be had by Germany.Of the proposed Anglo-Americancomplete arbitration treaty thespeaker said that the plan promisedlittle if questions like that of theMonroe Doctrine were excluded.

Just a few minutes before 4 o clockGeneral Carter and his staff rodedown from division headquarters andtook up a position about midway Inthe mile's length of 'brown , immov-able blocks of soldiery. With theGeneral were Col. S. M. Mills, Capt .M. Craig, Lieutenant Colonel D. E.McCarthy, Lieutenant Colonel H. P.Birmingham, Major J. Franklin Belland Col. E. F. Land, all of the com-manding general's division staff.

There were also Maj or Hans VonHerewarth, the German attache, re-splendent in his uniform of blue-grayand pink; Lieutenant Colonel Mc-Lachlan, military observer attachedto the British legation in Washing-ton, decked in khaki, with . red fac-ings, and the Count De Chambrun ,the French attache, who was dress-ed in a uniform of his rank in theFxanch Army.
