Misgivings Allayed.

The answer 10 this question is 10 be
found in the reiterated answer Of the
administrat ton TO the mediators. The
Ambassador Of Brazil and the Minis
tiers Of Argentina and Chill began their
work with misgivngs. misgivings
which were increased Wheln they
learned that CarranZa would not par
ticipate in the mediation. But their
misgivings have been constantly al
layed by these assurances from Wash
ington:
First, that the influence OF President
Wilson and Secretary Bryan over tho
Constitutionalists would be sufficient
to induce them to accept any agree
ment which President Wilson regarded
as just and proper.
Second. that ii had been so clearly

a large quantity OF ammunition, as well
as 20 machine guns. and the prospect
that the American supply is to be cut OH
by Mr.. Bryans new policy OF prohibiting
expectations from the United States TO
Mexican ports may tend to alter Carran-
za's view to a certain extent. The facts
indicate that the rebel army will have an
unexpected and rather important military
problem on its hands.
Ofcials are watching closely for any
indication that the latest move OF the
revolutionists is for the purpose OF
bringing about a delay in an agreement
at the Niagara conference. which many
persons suspect. II is somewhat signif~
cant that one high official OF the gov
eminent predicted TO the correspondent
of The Tribune week ago that the
rebels would make play for time by
asking for representation in the confer
ence for the purpose of delaying the ne
gotiations. so that Villa could go on win

there was any indication that Carranza
would make the move for participation

OF American officers and Mexican men

English ships. the French Consul. one
officer from the Spanish cruiser and a
few pink-cheeked Germans from the
irrepress.ble Ypiranga.
AS a means of uplifting tho Vera
Cruzians the afternoon sport was not
a particularly brilliant success. There
were two fairly interesting preliminary
bouts ~ four rounds, one between two
Mexicans, who made up for what they
lacked in science by enthusiasm, and
a decidedly quaint gift in the art OF
poses plastiques. And there was an
other between negro and versatile
Mexican American youth. until lately

Possibility Of Suspicion.

II was pointed out that il would
be impossible TO escape the suspicion
that the administration, in permitting
the conference to continue in the
belief that whatever agreement was
reached would be accepted 10y the
Constituencies through President
Wilson's influence until an agree
ment had been actually reached. and in
then urging the admission Of the Con-
stitutionaists at the eleventh hour, was
ton OF the Constitutionalists was that
"Carranza would mediate while Villa
fought" and that, without any sug-
gestion OF bad faith on the part Of th-
administration in Washington, It WAS
highly important to the success Of the
mediation that there should he avoided
so strong an appearance OF bad faith
on the part OF the rebels as would
the administration on the admission
at this time OF the Constitutional
lists. The Americans then retired for
further consultation with Washington
and with an appointment to meet
the medators at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning.
To many persons the course OF the
mediators in going on with this con-
ference without participation by the
Constitutionalists has not been clear.
They have asked what purpose will an
agreement between the Federals and
, the United States serve if the Consti-
tutionalists refuse TO become n party
to the negotiations or TO accept the re-
suits?
