Aaanaeatatlea of Kseaas.
MEXICO CITT. May a-Mexican offi
cials appear tonight to believe, that In spite
of tha disquieting newg from tha north
that a peace agreement will yet be reached.
In the department of foreign relations.
It was said. Information had been received
that the chiefs of tha revolution were In
consultation this afternoon and It was re
ported a cabinet meeting had been called
for tomorrow morning. A reply has been
received from Judge CarbaJal to a message
sent last night by Master Umantour, tha
Inference being that that message would
be considered. , ' ' .
A high official of the government said
negotiations wsra not broken off and these
was yet a chance that tha conferees would
get together.
Believing thst General Diss had de
termined to accede to tha demand of Ma
dero, thousands, of residents of the capital
wars astounded yesterday afternoon to
learn that the last moment of tha armistice
had passed without an agreement having
been reached. . v. y . . .i '
In the declaration ' of Madero that he
would resume hostilities they read tha
answer of tha president that he would not
yet yield his high position. Burprlae felt
by the public was shared by officials. At
moat ill of tha residents had entertained
tha bona that peace, would be declared.
In cites, clubs,' theaters and In tha
streets ansa are eagerly seeking news and
on every hand Is tard tha auery regarding
Intervention. . ,i' . ' . , .' ...

Meanwhile tha aoiaier-preslderit sits In his
omce in his home en catena street, grimly
facing the meet desperate situation which
h8 menaced Mexico, since he assumed eon'
trol mora than thjrty. years ago. Army
officers, members xt hla cabinet and other
high officials come and go, but from the
president's home comes no word that ho Is
yet willing' to announca his Intention ta
resign. Members of hla cabinet refuse to
discuss yha situation.
Mr. limantour and Minister Da la Barra
have had numerous conferences with Dies
alnca yesterday noon and it may be as-
' turned that Limantour at least haa urged
tha advisability of yielding.
For weeka Americens have been leaving
tha city for the United fit a tea and today s
newa haa resulted in a sudden augmenta
tion of tha exodus. Tonight's train to
Vara Crua carried numerous Americans,
chiefly women and children, and many un
able to obtain accommodation on tha bdkvts,
whose reservations era .booked for thrsa
weeka In advance, ar attempting to get
out of the country ever tha ona railroad
left open to the north.
Fear that further fighting will bo fot
lowed by Intervention and that thla will
result In scenea of traglo disorder Is ex
pressed on every hand.

Belief that tha milted States will take

thla morning by the publication by a aews
paper here of a dispatch from New fork,

WASHINGTON, May 7 Stories printed

on military affairs on Thursday, expressed
the opinion that intervention In Mexico
will be Inevitable, and that it would take

republic brought no little chagrin to ad
ministration circles.
Official denials were Issued from several

anew tha administration's position that In

One of president Tsft's callers went so
far today as to quote him as saying that
"blood would have to be so deep In Mexico
that a man could wade through It" before
the American army would cross the border.
This haa been reported to have been the
rresidenfa position throughout the Mexican
troubles and again was generally accepted
as such.

WOMEN PARADE THE STREETS
Three Thousand of Them March Up
and Sown New York Avenues.
DECLARE THEIR RIGHT TO VOTE
Pellremea Head the Colanin, learlaar

Watch aad Cheer the
I'araders.
NEW YORK. Msy 7.-(Speclsl Telegram )
To the cheers snd a few jeers of a multi
tude that had Just witnessed a strictly
masculine affair, a marathon, with rein
forcements of their own friends, the
famous female-male suffrsge parsde
bravely marched down Fifth avenue from
Fifty-seventh to Seventeenth itreet and
then across to Union square, wherein an
outpouring of purely feminine wrath, de
livered from automobiles, and the denun
ciation of the tyrant in trousers ended.
The marathon crowd remained for the
most part patiently in its place, glad of
the chance to compare the mode of lo
comotion of the beet physically of the male
sex with the slow pace of thoe who de
mand all the rights or their Bwlft brothers.
At the head of the column of 3,000 march
ers came a few embarras&ed policemen.
The crowd focured lis Initial attention
upon the suffragette banner, white and
immaculate, and borne by a division of
the suffragettes leaders. Upon the ban
ner was this:
"Forward out of error,
Leave behind the night.
Forward through the darkness.
- Forward Into light."
Handbills Aloagr the Line.
The banner wss borne by Mips Ines
Mulholland, Miss Fullerton and Miss Al
berta HIM and It was Into darkness that
the women marched, for the antls had
been before them all along the line dis
tributing hand bills. Their phrasing gave
the onlookers the cue for cheering the
pardders.
"Voles for wo-nen!" fh uted a marcher,
close behind the Scotch bagpipes. A qu'e(
man with a gleam in hla eye spread wide
the handbill which an anti had put in his
path.
"The suffrage Is not a question of right
or of Justloe," he read from the antl-lltera-ture,
"but of policy and expediency, and if
there la no question of right or of Justice,
there is no cause for woman suffrage."
"Votes for women'" came back In chorus.
Along lumbered a float showing a woman
dressed In Eighteenth century costume,
laboring at her household tasks.
The poor thing," came from a scrub
woman on the ourb.
She Joins the Ranks. '
Then with a glance to the riant and one
to the left, the scrub woman fell In behind
the float, shouting.
"Votes for women!"
From far uo tha avenue there flnated
down to thoae near Fortysecond street a
ohorus of admiring approval In strictly
masculine tones from the sidewalk gal
lery. Manicure girls, dressmakers In their beat
creations, milliners, cooks, hair dressers,
trained nurses, professional women and
sttnogiaphera were among the marohera.
Benina tliem came the loaders and repre
sentatives of the various women'a suffrage
organisations under whose direction the
passage to a second reading of the English
suffragette bill was being celebrated In the
open In Fifth avenue.
The division of the parade that suffered
the most at tha hands of tha unfriendly
waa that of the male sympathisers of the
suffragette cause. This' section was not
numerous, but each member of that band
waa greeted from the sidewalk with "mol
lycoddle," "undesirable cltlaen," and even
"liar."

Western League Gossip
Now since IJncoln haa aot past Omaha
In the percentage column It has begun to
talk about Omaha's shouting away back
In January and comments on Lincoln's
silence. Methlnks there was some noise
around the Anelopes' camp to the effect
that tney would burn the leegue up this
st ason.
It has been rumored around the circuit
for the last few days that "Buck" Free
man, a former Sioux City player, has been
offered the msnagement of the semi
professional team st Dresden. Tenn., his
home. Freeman was on the firing line lust
yesr for the champs and pitched fairly
good ball.
It now comes out that Captain fchlpke
lost a brand new hat to Tom Kalrweather
when the champs took that same Frldav.
Skipper bet Tom the hats thst his team
would tske three straight games from the
Sioux City boys, and Tom came right hack
and said, "If you fellows tske twp games
of the series I will buy you the best hat in
Omaha."
Fox nltched some came for Lincoln Fri
day and won for the Antelopes. However.
Buchanan of the losing team had a few
of thoae twifters himself . and held ths
boys from the Nebraska capital down to

GRAY HAIRS BANISHED.
The old Idea ot using1 8au for
darkening the hair Is agairr com Ins;
In vogue. Our grandmothers used to
have dark, glossy hair at the age of
seventy-five, while our mothers have
white balr before they are fifty.
Our grandmothers used to make .
"sage tea" and apply it to their hair.
The tea made their hair soft and
glersy and gradually restored tha
natural color.
One objection to using such prep
aration was the trouble of making it,
especially aa It had to be mad very
two or three days on account fit It
ourlng quickly. Thla objection has
been overcome and by asking almost
any first-class druggist for Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy the
publlo can get a superior prepara
tion of sage, with the admixture of ,
sulphur, another valuable remedy for
hair and scalp troubles. Dally use of
this preparation will not only quickly
restore the color of the hair but will
also stop the hair from falling out
and make It grow. ,
This preparation Is offered to the
fiubltc at fifty cents a bottle and It
recommended and sold by
