CREEL EN- ROUTE HERE.
Starts from Mexico to Conduct Peace
Conference Sessions.

Advices received in Washington from
Mexico are TO the effect that Senor En-
rique Creel Ambassador from Mexico
and governor of Chihuahua, has started
for Washington. and viii be here in
time to take active charge of the peace
conference Of the delegates from the
Central American republics.
Secretary Root will. Of course. have
perfunctory charge Of the conference,
but the Mexico advices would indicate
that upon Senor Creel will fall most of
the work OF directing the sessions.
The ambassador had not been expected
to come 10 Washington until some time
in December, and it is for this reason
that It IS believed he was called TO di-
rect the conference.
In connection with his coming TO Wash
ington, 1t is said in Mexico that there is
a well-developed sentiment for q union
of Salvador and Costa Rica, and that
this may be one of the interesting fea-
lures Of the conference.
