have resulted from word from Mia
CARA Falls that America would not
permit the blockade.

kilograms exchanged between Huer-
ia and the ENJOYS caused the coun-
termanding orders. The Americans

tude on Tampico was explained.
The mediators pursued Carranza's s
attitude regarding the mediation. 1t
is believed to be to his interest to
enter the conference.
NIAGARA FALLS, Ont, June s.
At this mornings session with the
mediators the Americans submitted
complete plans for the pacification of
Mexico. Previously the mediators
had presented similar plan and to-
days plans was counter PROPOSE
ton. 1t is understood that it in
ciudes points satisfactory to Carranza.
Huerta's action is countermanding
the Tampico blockade order removes
the only serious obstacle to the nego-
tiations and hopes are increasing that
Carranza will be represented at the
mediation conference.
The next step will be the submis-
sion OF the American plan to the

resulting from the shipment of arms
to rebels aboard the steamer Antil-
la, has passed.
