Peace In Mexico Sought By Rebels.

New York Times 100 years ago today, January 14, 1913:
Overtures to Madero Call for a New Vice President and Cabinet Changes.
ZAPATA SAID TO BE WILLING
Calero Asserts He Resigned Ambassadorship Through Lack of Accord with Madero's Policy.
    EL PASO, Jan. 13.— Definite proposals for peace in Mexico are said to have been  made to Pedro Lascurain, Minister of Foreign Relations, in his recent visit here, by insurrecto leaders, including Inez Salazar, Marcelo Carrevo, and Antonio Rojas. Señor Lascurain was asked to present the proposals to President Madero.
    The rebels' overtures do not include the condition calling for the resignation of President Madero, but request new appointments for the Vice Presidency and about half of the Cabinet, the transportation into Mexico of all refugees now in the United States, and the immediate enforcement of public promises. R. Gomez Robelo, now a prisoner at San Antonio, has expressed the belief that the proposals will be acceptable to Pascual Orozco, the rebel chief, whose whereabouts are not definitely known.
    Dr. José S. Saenz, who acted as one of the rebel Commissioners, said that Zapata, insurrecto leader in South Mexico, had directly expressed his willingness to accept the peace compact.
    The proposals include a demand for the resignation of Señor Lascurain.
    Meantime it is reported that communication with the interior of Chihuahua, southwest of Juarez, is again blocked by the cutting of the Mexico Northwestern Railroad by rebels near Guzman, between Juarez and Casas Grandes, and that rebels near Babioora, Chihuahua, have executed Gen. José de la Luz Blanco, who was captured by forces under Salazar and Rojas last week.
