Diaz Government Surrenders in Mexico
Another five days' truce has been signed between the government and the revolutionists in Mexico. As the basis of the truce President Diaz and Vice-President Corral have agreed to resign before June 1, and Minister of Foreign Relations De la Barra will be president during the interim. Francisco I. Madero, the revolutionary leader, will be called to Mexico City to act as De la Barra's chief adviser and as a sure guarantee that the pledges made by the government will be carried out. A new election is to be called within the next six months to settle all the questions at issue. It is considered that this action amounts to a complete surrender of Diaz and his government as a result of the striking victories that have recently been gained by the revolutionists.
