tlcmcnt of the conflict between the
United States and Merico,
The ambassador explained that
while mediation would take an In
definite recess awaiting the outcome
of efforts by representatives of the
two Mexican factions TO solve the IN
tcrnal problems of Mexico, the task
Of mediation was not yet concluded,
though an essential part of its Work
had been accomplished.
The ambassador spoke At a lunch
con given by the three mediators to
newspaper correspondents. The en-
tire American and lucrta delegations
to the mediation conference were
present and the remarks Of Mr.. DE
Cana, after careful revision, were
made public later, constituting for
nal statement of the mediation work
thus far
Task Is Not Done.
at is source of satisfaction for
me said the ambassador, ITO be able
to say that one of the essential points
OF our program, that dealing with the
international side Of the conflict, IS
irtually settled. This does not imply
that we go home with our task con
Cludcd but We feel that so far we
have aVcrted war. We have estab-
liShed, also, through agreement ne
tween . the parties most directly IN
terestcd and in complete harmony
with the sentiments of the govern
ment Of the United States, that 1t Is
principle of American policy to
have our own national problems al
ways given fair examination ana
settled without foreign Intervention
We understand that If such result
has been attained we shall have
created more favorable atmosphere
in international politics in America "
Mr. DeGama called attention TO the
fact that President Wilson personally
had informed the medlalorS before
they left Washington that the only
way to solve MeNico's problem was
to aid the contending parties in
Mexico TO reach an agreement among
themselves, thus obtaining MeXl-
can solution Of the Mexican question"
In this manner the ambassador re-
"ealed that the course mediation has
taken was in President Wilson's mind
from the beginning.
The speech served also as defini-
ton for the world generally of the
hitherto unsettled status Of media
ton. Ambassador DaGama and Min
stcr Naon had planned to leave to-
night but found many details to ar
range and postponed their departure
until tomorrow. The Washington
government would prefer that the
mediation board remain here while
the COnStitutionalists were urged to
act quickly on the invitation already
extended them.
Answered CarranLa.
The mediators tonight formally ac-
knowledged the latest note from Cen
eral Carranza The answer expresses
appreciation for Carranza's friendly
sentiments toward peace and is cour-
teously phrascd 1t will be made pub
lie tomorrow.
The American delegates today re-
coiyed word from Washington to
leave here when they thought 1t ad-
Nsable, but they will be the last to
go The Huerta delegates received
formal instructions from their govern
ment giving them plenary powers to
discuss internal questions with CON
stitutionalists. The Huerta delegates
are anxious to know when and where
the conference should take place
Should no definite word be received
by Friday or Saturday some of the
Huerta delegates will go to New York
to stay. Minister Naon of Argentina,
after comforting in Washington with
Luis Cabrera, expects to telegraph the
Huerta delegates some definite idea
of the time the informal conferences
Will be convened
Hucrta Delegates satisfied
Emilio Rabasa, head of the Huerta
delegation, said he was pleased with
the accomplishments of mediation
thus far The recess of mediation
still holds in effect the armistice be-
tween the United States and the
Huerta government at Vera cruz. No
protocol has been signed indicating
when the American forces will be
withdrawn. This has been left for
consideration after the two Mexican
factions agree on the new provisional
government II is expected this
protocol, along with others already
