of the representatives of the three
South American countries which are

with the representatives Of the United
States and Mexico next Wednesday.
Domicio da Cana, the Brazilian am
bassador, who is the ranking diplomat
Of the three mediatory powers, and
Romulo s. Naon, minister for Argen-

New York, May 19.-General Huer-
tas mediation representatives rested
here. Repeated efforts to obtain some
inkling of their plans failed, but the
following statement was given out:
The discretion which the delicacy
Of their mission imposes, as an ele-
mentary consideration, upon the MeXl-
can delegates to the conference at Nj
agara Falls has prevented them from
making any statements or declaration,
but in their desire to meet the wishes
of the press they beg to state that
they have been most courteously treat
ed by all authorities and officials of the
United States, that they have received
proofs of cordial sympathies from the
representatives of various South Amer
lean nations and that they go to Nj
agara Falls animated by the earnest
hope that an honorable and satisfac-
tory conclusion will be arrived at at
the meetings to be held there.
The statement was written in Span
ish by Emilio Rabasa.

president of the Mexican National

DO rhe was eyecuted by Mexican troops

Parks was executed by Mexican troops
the incident may be ground for the
termination of the agreement TOT
cessation Of hostilities.
While the Parks case brought the
sinister development of the day, there
were other features in the Mexican
| situation that disturbed officials for
time. First came the postponemeht
| If the mediation conference at Mag
ara Falls, Ont, from next Monday 10
| May 90. Speculation as TO possible
significance in the delay was allayed
later by the announcement that the
mediators had acted merely on a re-
quest of the Huerta delegates, now on
the way to Washington, for time TO
rest after reaching Niagara Falls.
The holding of five men reputed to
be South Americans for trial at Vera
Cruz as Shippers" promised to give the
medlators a problem. General Fun
ston and Rear Admiral Badger re-
ported, however, that investigation
disclosed that one prisoner. who said
he was a Chilean, was a Mexican, and
that the four others probably vera
Mexicans."
Secretary Garrison said the five
"snipers" had been ordered released
by him after comforting with the pres
ident. The action was taken, he add
ed, because It was found General Fun
ston of his own accord has discharged
all other Mexicans accused OF snip
ing"
Meantime John r. Silliman, Ameri-
can vice-consul at Saltillo, who was ar
rested by Mexican federal officials and
for whose safety there had been grave
fears, was on the way to Mexico City,
said a cablegram sent to Ambassador
Spring-Rc by Lionel Garden, British
minister in Mexico City.
Private Parks was one Of General
Funston's soldiers. Several days ago
he wandered into the Mexican lines
with two horses owned by Lieut. Col.
Gilmore F. Taggart Of the Twenty
eighth infantry. Shortly after he dis
appeared General Funston reported to
the war department that he had left
the American lines while probably de-
ranged on account of the heat.
While It is not believed that the
latest demand for information regard
ing Parks amounts to an ultimatum,
the representations were OF the most
emphatic nature possible short OF an
actual ultimatum.

came through from Paso del Macho.

that troops quartered at the Piedad
barracks, Mexico City, revoted

Former Minister Urrutia Arrested
After Demonstration-Ed Says
He Killed Kin.

Vera Cruz, May 19.-Hooted and

that his brother had been killed by
order Of the ex-miniSter OF the interior,
DR.. Aureliano Urrutia, who held that
office and was once Huertas most
trusted counselor, was arrested for the
second time here.
Doctor Urrutia had fed from Mexico
City to escape the wrath of the presi-
dent, and had the appearance of an
ordinary laboring man when he dis
closed his identity on board the Amer
lean train this side of the gap. He
was detained by the American officers
and taken before Brigadier General
Funston, who, however, ordered him
set at liberty.
Antonio Rivero de la Tore, editor
OF Ell Dictamen, was the leader of the
demonstration against the former min
lister He appeared in the street be-
meath the window Of the room occu-
pied by Doctor Urrutia at the Diligen-
cias hotel and began an impassioned
speech. He shouted: Assassin! Cow
ard" and charged that Urrutia was
responsible for the execution of his
brother, one of the deputies of the con
gress which Huerta dissolved.

there was no evidence warranting his

Huerta was determined to blow up the
national palace and other public build

accurate knowledge, but admitted that
he had heard such rumors. Conditions

Ell Paso, Tex, May 19.-The authort-
cation given his delegates to the me-
diation conference by Huerta to pres
ent his resignation if necessary to In
sure peace in Mexico is regarded by
constitutionalist leaders here simply
as an attempt by the Huerta party to
win some concessions from struggle
in which they have been defeated at
every turn. The constitutionalists
reiterated that the contest must be
pressed to the end. They said they
were not fighting an individual, but
political condition, supported and
backed by the party of which Huerta
is the head. The news was tele-
graphed to General Carranza, who is
on his way from Lanfrere to Durango.
