Washington.-Eli Of Victo-
riano Huerta and the establishment OF
a provisional government in Mexico
in which both the Huerta and the Con-
stitutionalist factions would be repre-
sented, is contemplated in a plan
which the three South American medi-
ators are now working out,
This, the first intimation as to the
details Of the'mediation plans, became
known Tuesday night, though neither
the mediators nor State Department
officials would make any statement.
1t was learned that the proposal
might be that the setting up of a tenn
porary government be undertaken by

be named by Huerta, two by the Con-
stitutionalists and the fifth by the
mediators.
While the medlators have withdrawn
their invitation to the Constitutional
