OFFICIAL FAMILY FEELS JUBl. LIANT OVER TURN OF AFFAIRS
 WITH MEDlATORS.
WILSON BREAKS HIS SILENCE
Carranza Has Named the Men Who Will Look After the Affairs of the Constitutionaists at the Sessions of the Medators.

Washington, D. C., June 12.-The Washington government was so opti- mistic today over prospects for the success of mediation that cabinet members fairly radiated jubiation when they left the white house after a conference with the president.
 President Wilson broke his long and patient silence on the subject by authorizing the declaration that the outlook for mediation was encourag- ing. Secretary Bryan was so en- unused over the peace outlook that he laughed with newspaper men and fel- low cabinet members as they tarried outside the executive office. The sec retary of state and Secretary Daniels asserted the Mexican situation was looking hopeful from the viewpoint of the United States.
 Later in the day Secretary Bryan verified reports from Niagara Falls that the Huerta delegates and repre- sentatiyes of the United States had agreed on the method for transmit ting authority in Mexico from Huerta to the proposed provisional govern ment. He declined, however, to re- veal the details of the method.
 General Carranza's latest note, for warded early today by mail to Mag. ara Falls, announcing his decision to send representatives to the media tion conference was touched on at the cabinet meeting. The white house learned early in the day of Carranza's decision and also the con stitutionalist chief adhered strictly to his attitude that no armistice should be required
 Word from Niagara Falls that the mediators would not officially re- ceiye Carranza delegates into the conference unless they should agree to an armistice threw no damper on the enthusim of Washington govern ment officials Official quarters again referred to the suggestion that Carranzas agents could be unoffic- ially welcomed to discuss plans of settlement upon which a way might be found for all to meet later with the mediators and a protocol event ually signed by the representatives of all parties interested
 That constitutonalist representa-. tives will go to the conference off cially or unofficially seemed certain today, in view of the fact that Gen eral Carranza already had designated the three men. As announced here today, the commissioners for the con stitutionalists will be Fernando lglesias Caderon, for many years prominent in Mexican affairs, for. merly a minister in the cabinet of President Diaz: Luis Cabrera, active in the constitutionalist ranks and re- gently returned from Europe, and Jose Vasconcelos, a young Mexican lawyer who has been prominent in the revolutionary movement. Mr. Calderon is at Saltillo conferring with Carranza and is expected to leave there for Niagara Falls with IT. structions from his chief almost i'm mediately. MT. Cabrera is in Wash ington and Mir. Vasconcelos is eX- pected to return here from New York
 While peace prospects were bright ening the revolution in Mexico was going steadily ahead, according to several reports. General Obregon was reported to be leading a terrific as- sault on Mazatlan, the fall of the city being predicted before many days. At Zacatecas the revolutionists coh tinued fighting and ammunition for General Villa to be used in the cam paign against San Luis Potosi had been unloaded from the steamer An tilla at 1ampico and was en route to Torreon by rail.
 Some constitutionalist leaders as- serted they looked for only one more important battle-that at San Luis Potosi. Even that, they believed would not compare in ferocity with Torreon, Tampico or even Saltillo.
 With regard to ammunition being shipped from the United States, President Wilson made the position of this government clear in an ex- ecutive order directing that no yes sels be cleared from American ports
