MEDIATION OFFERED
WILSON AND KUERTAACC
Brazil, Argentina, and Chile Will Try to Stop
War-Presdent Wilson Agrees
Professionally.

Washington, D. C.-Presldent vii
son accepted the proposal of Argen
tina, Brazil and Chile that they be al
lowed to mediate between the United
States and Mexico for the purpose Of
ending the present conflict.
President Wilson made clear In his
acceptance that the United States
would be ready, while the attempt for
peace was being made, to quickly meet
any armed force which Huerta might
see fit to use, or punish Immediately
any killing Of American citizens in
Mexico.
Events in Mexico do not augur well
for the success Of mediation, but the
President takes the position that the
United States can afford to take the
first step by showing its willingness to
do anything to prevent bloodshed,
while standing firm to the edict that
the insults to the American flag by
Huerta must be avenged.
During the move for peace the
United States will make no further
invasions of Mexican territory and will
hold to a tentative truce, unless forced
to the use of arms by Huerta.
No troops will be withdrawn, how
ever, and preparations for war will
continue. Orders to ships now pro.
ceeding south will not be changed and
officers of the Army and Navy, now
at the front, will be allowed to use
their own discretion in any situation
which may arise.
The mediators have several alterna-
tive plans. They wish to get com.
plete apology from Huerta for insults
TO the American flag at Tampico or to
eliminate Huerta from the situation
entirely, or to bring the Constitution.
Rllsts and Federals together and re-es-
tablish constitutional government In
Mexico, which would likewlce elimi.
nate Huerta.
Official Washington is skeptical OF
mediation proving successful.
The Offer OF Mediation and President
Wilson's Acceptance.
The offer made by the three coun.
tries is as follows:
"Mr. Secretary OF State:
with the purpose of subscribing the
interest Of peace and civilization in
our continent in all confidence and
with the earnest desire to prevent any
further bloodshed to the prejudice OF
the cordially and union which have
always surrounded the relations of the
governments and the people of Amer
lea, we, the plenipotentiaries of Brazil,
Argentina and Chile, duly Authorized
hereto, have the honor to tender to
your Excellency's Government our
good Offices for the peaceful and friend.
ly settlement of the conflict between
the United States and Mexico.
This offer puts in due form the
suggestions which we have had occa-
sion to offer heretofore on this subject
to the Secretary, to whom we renew
the assurances Of our highest and most
distinguished consideration.
