Plan to Continue Negotiations
Pending Word From the
C0nstituti0naIistS.
CALDERON MAY enter
THE LATTER'S CABINET
Roberto Pesqueira, Revolutionists'
Agent, Suggests Mediation
for the Mediators.

While waiting to hear from Gen. Car
rama whether he would send delegates
to the conference here. the mediators
planned today to continue such work as
would not be affected by the constitu-
tionalist answer.
Those who have seen the mediators'
note to the constitutionalists say 1t is
SO phrased that they can find therein a
dignified way of entering the negotia-
tons. notwithstanding their previous OBJ
jections.
The peace plan on which the two sets
Of delegates have been working for two
weeks had been only partially COM
pleted. Much of the work will be OF
value even If the constitutionalists de-
eide to enter the negotiations. The
mediation colony is absorbed, however, in
the constitutionalist phase of the Mexi-
can problem. Word in respect to it is
awaited with intense interest. The feel
ing is general that the attitude taken by
Gen. Carranza in his reply probably will
shape the entire course of the mediation
hereafte-: and perhaps have a direct ef-
feet on the Washington government 8
future policy toward the two factions in
Mexico.
Calderon for Carranza Cabinet.
NEW YORK, June A. Francisco
Crquidi, the local representative of the
Carranza government. received teie-
gram today from Gen. Carranza, telling
of conference between the leaders of
the. constitutionalists and Fernando L.
calderon, the leader of the liberal ele-
ment. The conference was held aA
Durango, and it was announced that
Senor Calderon was to be taken into
the Carranza cabinet
Wants Mediation for Mediators.
Ell PASO, Tex, June This seems
a good time for mediation commission
to be appointed to mediate the differences
of the mediators at the Niagara media
queira, confidential agent of the Mexican
revolutionists.
I'VE are appealing" he declared, ito
people.
The original idea of the mediation
conference was to settle the differ
ences between the Huerta government
and the United States government over
the arrest Of some sailors and marines
at Tampico. With this the constitu-
tionalist party was in hearty accord.
No marines or sailors or soldiers had
been arrested in the two-thirds of
Mexico controlled by the constitution
alfsts, and we considered as highly
proper any mediation to prevent an
armed conflict of two friendly nations
But the medfators began to deal
with the internal affairs OF Mexico and
to deal not with Carranza, the COM
mander of the constitutionalist move
ment, but with representatives Of the
muroerers of President Madero on ac-
count of whose death the Washington
government refused to recognize the
Huerta government and assisted moral
ly the constitutionalist revolution.
Holds Positions Altered.
Also 1 wish to recall that the govern
ments of Argentina, Brazil and Chile did
not recognize Huerta,. and their peoples
morally were against the government of
despotism and were in favor of the revo-
luton Of democracy. Why have these
representatives Of formerly friendly
South American governments so altered
the position of the countries they repre-
sent? Has Latin America suddenly turned
against the moral issue which it had
supported SO firmly during a year of
strife which is about to be completed in
Mexico?'
All northern Mexico is awaiting the ex-
changes between CarranZa and the A b.
q. mediators at Niagara. An armistice
virtually exists, especially in view OF the
report as given out by federal command
ers of invested cities that Huerta was
about to resign from the provisional pres
idency. The shutting down Of the en-
barge by the United States also has had
its effect on the revolutionary army,
which, since the fighting about Saltillo.
has been short of ammunition.
