RESEARCH GIRL IS DEAD
Miss Mabie, 20, and Patholo-
gist, Succumbs to Diphtheria.

Miss Marion G. Mabie. daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Il. Mabie, Of >
Edgewood Park, New Rochelle. died
there yesterday from heart disease fol-
lowing diphtheria.
Miss Mabie was twenty years old.
She intended to devote her life to path
illogical research, and was research
student at the Polytechnic Hospital in
this city. Friends fear she contracted
diphtheria from her work in the labora-
tory, but officials OF the hospital. and
particularly DR.. +. NJ. Jeffries. of
Pleasantville, denied last night that
this could have been the case.
ut is ridiculous TO suppose that Mis-.
Mabie contracted diphtheria in her
laboratory work." DIR. Jeffries said.
I'm all the history of research work at
the Polytechnic there has been just one
case of that sort. A student, extremely
careless, did inhale some diphtheria
germs and contracted the disease.
Miss Mabie had nothing to do with
diphtheria in the laboratory and could
not have contracted the disease there"
Miss Mabie was a member of the
New Rochelle High School girls
basketball team which won the cham
pionship of westchester County in
1911. She was extremely popular n
New Rochelle society.

West Goth st. station yesterday evening
after fight with two patrolmen. II was
only after streetcar was Communicated
that the officers finally secured their cap

rallied 10 his support.
Patrolman Michael KroZer, OF the West

shots near Tenth av and saw Smith
pursuing another man along the street
firing as he ran. Krozer overhauled Smith
and fight ensued.
Patrolman Derleth came 10 the aid Of
his fellow officer When the two police
men had partially subdued Smith a num-
Der OF "gansters'' went 20 his assistance,
and the officers were compelled to stop a
streetcar to get their prisoner to the sta

Smith has the reputation of instlgating
the issuance of the famous "Gaynor non
clubbing order, which the former Mayor
caused to be put I'm effect In the Police
Department. Smiths prediction for
scraps" with members of the force
brought on his arrest one evening. His
face and body showed marks of the

played his scars. AS a result the order
was given out that patrolmen should not

Elections in Mexico.

In answer 20 the contention that

conducted by a provisional govern

was provisional President, the an
swer Of the Americans calls atten-

past tho elections in Mexico have
been under the supervision Of a
single Cabinet minister represent

ogy the next election should be
supervised by only one officer rep
resenting tho dominant Constitu-
tionalist party. The American

oism against that method, and con-
templates that the most important

scntauyes Of both parties.

PEACEMAKERS ARE BUSY
Friends Trying to Bring Villa

fTrom The Tribdn4 Bureau.l


Washington, June 1S-The State Depart
ment has received kilograms from several
centres in Northern Mexico, mostly from
American consular officers which state
that friends of Villa and Carranza are
making vigorous efforts TO bring the two
rebel leaders together.
One Of the important kilograms received
to-day came from Collector Of Customs
Cobb, at El Paso. Mr.. Cobb Is in close
touch with the Constitutionalists. He re-
ported that an understanding would prob
ably be reached between Villa and Car
rama.
The administration received information
of an adjustment with rather mixed feel
ings 1t is primarily interested in Consu-
nationalist success, which would mean the
elimination of Hrerta, but it is also dis
satisfied with Carranza. If Villa SHOULD
reorganize the Constitutionalist govern

istration would be we'll pleased

While press reports from "ashins

repugnant 10 the MeXicans as 'Iia' u

Angeles personally, aside from tleil
conviction that no election conuucleu
under his direction would be worthy
of the name. or would command the
s1iobtoet respect from the Mexican peo-
pie.
The Mexican delegates who nave
been exceedingly loath to discuss lne
situation for publication, say they are
AZ loss to comprehend the opposition
IF President Wilson to the plan pro
nosed by the mediators and agreed 10
bv them. They say that from the hrst
thcv have understood that President
Wilson regarded two points as essen
tial-drst. the elimination of Huerta'
and, second. the holding Of a fair ana
a constitutional election. They have as
scented to both and now, from thelr
point Of view, the administration IN
washington is causing the mediation
to come to naught by insisting on con-
ditions which would absolutely preclude
a fair election.
Emilio Rabasa, head OF the Huer'a
delegation. said that he would not de-
eide until tomorrow whether or not
there would be reply 70 the Ameri-

yard until late tomorrow, and the iuil
conference probably would not take

Troops at Vera Cruz.

If the mediation fails there will be no
withdrawal of American forces from
Vera Cruz. The army will also be kept
on the border and the garrison of
troops at Texas City will be retained.
1t is expected. if mediation fails, that
Huerta will ask that Vera Cruz be
evacuated. but this will not be done.
with the failure of mediation the So
called armistice between Huerta and
the United States will come 10 an end.
1t is not considered likely that the
United States will take aggressive ac-
ton unless Huerta does, and the
chances of Huerta doing so arc meas
ured only by his possible desire to pre-
cipitate American Intervention in order
to bring to the Mexican capital soldiers
of the United States rather than those
Of the Constitutionalists.

Views Of the Mexicans.

Summed up, the Mexican view as ex-
pressed tonight is as follows: The fun
damental error of the American dele
gates and their government lies in the
assumption that the Constitutionalists
represent the views of the majority or
the Mexican people, whereas they rep
resent those Of scarcely more than one
eighth. The secondary error is the as
sumption that there are two dominant
parties in Mexico, as there are in the
United States, whereas there are half
score Of parties. Therefore an cleo
ton dominated by the Constitutional
lists would lack the confidence Of seven
eighths of the people, including the
members Of all the parties other than
the Constitutionalists.
Therefore, it is contended, many
states Of Mexico where there has been
no revolution and where the people
have been merely passive observers oil
the revolution in the north, would re-
sent what they would consider having
foisted on them Constitutionalist gov
eminent by the United States.
It is maintained that all who seek
fair election must perceive that the
plan Of the mediators, a government
composed Of two Federals and two
Constitutionalists, with a neutral head,
is a perfectly fair one. And it is sug'
gested that did Carranza represent
even a small majority of the Mexican
people he would not hesitate to accept
that plan, his determination not TO do
so being conclusive evidence that he
realizes that he has not the sympathy
of the majority Of his fellow country
men.
Whether or not the Mexican delegates
will issue a formal reply to that of the
Americans will not be determined until
tomorrow.
When the statement of Senior RabaSa
became public last night the American
delegates announced that they would
Immediately issue an outline Of their
reply to the memorandum sketched by
the chairman of the Mexican delega-
ton. In an effort to draft their reply
and in conversations with Washington
the American delegates spent the
greater part Of the night. At = a. m.
they announced that their reply would
be deferred until this morning, but
they continued their work until a. IN,
Exhausted they then retired, but re-
sumed their labors early this morning.
The Americans received the state
nsent, an outline of which was made
public this morning, last Friday. They
replied with little delay and TO that
reply the Mexicans Immediately re-
piled, asserting in their answer that
the Americans had ignored the funda-
mental contentious of the Mexicans
and had dealt almost exclusively with
points Of lesser consequence.

Fair Election Impossible.

II is admitted that, following the
atrocities which have been committed
in Mexico. 10 a greater or lesser extent
on both sides. Il would be difficult TO
find either extreme Huertistas or ex-
IRENE Constitutionallsts who could
work together TO procure fair cleo .
ton. Those on both sides have suf-
fered. not the soourgo of political
speeches on the hastings, but the in
Jury of fathers and brothers killed, OF
wives and daughters rayisbed. OF ma
terial wealth forever destroyed. For
these reasons the Mexican delegates
urge the selection OF a neutral pro-
visional government as the only feas-
ible way of bringing order out OF chaos
and insuring an administration at Mex
leo City which will command the 10y
atty and respect Of ell Mexico, and as
the only practical method of avoiding
further bloodshed.
Mexican advices indicate that the
split between Carranza and Villa Is OF
far grayer nature than the members OF
the constltutionalist junta In this
country are willing 10 admit.
The Mexican delegates were advised
this evening that the officials OF the
United states at San Antonio had in
formed President Wilson that the
break between villa and Carranza
was an actual fact, and that they added
that this break had been effected by in

NOTHING IN SIGHT

Washington Said to Believe Reb'

TO Gust Huerta.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau.l

Washington, June 1S.-The EFFORTS cl
the A y 9 mediators, OF Huerta ana
his delegates and of the government OF
tho limited states to find a solution OF
tho Mexican problem by conferences at
Niagara Falls are expected to end TO-
morrow.
Many officials here believe that 'he
Mexican delegates in issuing state
ment last night declaring that thS
American insistence upon 1 Coustltu-
tionallst to head the PROVISIONAL gov
eminent would be fatal were si'hpi'
laying the foundation for a case
against this government. They are III
tent il is believed upon presenting
their argument to the world hrst' pla3-
ing the blame for failure on what thcy
allege to be the unreasonable conteh-
tions of the United states.
II il feared in some quarters that the
AB C mediators will take similar
attitude and that If this proves we
case the mediation, instead Of placing
the United States in a good position
before Latn-America, which was one
of the prime reasons for the partiri-
patton Of the United States In the
project. will have an opposite effect.
Nothing to Save Situation.
There seems to be little chance of the
presentation Of new proposals WHICH
will save the situation. The Constita-
tionalists. in spite of the disagreement
between Carranza and Villa, are ada
mant on the questiors of non-paruci-
patton in and non-acceptance OF the
result of the mediation. They declare
they would rather fight for triumph IN
Mexico CITY and control of the govern
ment.
Until to-day officials of the govern
ment have professed optimism and hope
that the difficulty would be bridged
over. Now. however. officials are
afraid that tomorrow marks the END
of mediation. Secretary Bryan still eX-
presses hope. but as he is optimistic
under the most adverse circumstances
his hopefulness is discounted through
out Washington.
Mr.. Bryan said this afternoon that he
had not. the slightest intention of going
TO Niagara Falls 10 make representa-
tons to the mediators. There was a
report in circulation here, emanating
from high quarters, that Mr.. Bryan be-
lieved that the only way 10 save the
situation was for him to go to Niagara
Falls and there adjust the differences
that have arisen.
No one in Washington seems to know
lust what the administration will do
when the Niagara Falls conferences
come to an end. 1t is believed certain
that there will ensue period of watch
full waiting TO see IL the Constitution
alists will overthrow Huerta by force
Of arms.

On One Side or the Other.

In reference 10 the suggestion
that the provisional President
should be a neutral, it is said that
IL is manifest that in such con-
test as has been waged in Mexico
FOR years, It is not only fair but
necessary 10 assume that every in
telligent man OF any prominence Is
at heart on one side or the other
and the country might well ques-
ton the patriotism Of any Mexican
who has been colorless in such a
contest. and as the provisional
President must be to some extent
identified with one party or the
other. il necessarily follows that to
meet requirements Of the present
situation his sympathies, which
really mark the man, must be with
the dominant element
1.-The effort, therefore, should
be not 10 find a neutral. but one
whose attitude on the controlling
issues would make him acceptable
TO the Constitutionalists while his
character. standing and conduct
would make him acceptable TO the
other party.
such a man and only such a
man can reasonably be expected 10
have the confidence and respect OF
tho entire country. II those dis
cussed do not possess the requisite
qualifications II Is only because we
have not succeeded in finding what
we sought. You can quite we'll APP
preclate how difficult II is for us
under the circumstances TO do more
than we have and 20 further prom
isc diligently and earnestly TO con-
tinue the search

Fair Count Of Ballots.

at Is true that the American
plan proposes that a majority Oh
this board shall be Constitution
alists. but that ~ because they no"
represent the sentiment OF the ma
iority OF the people of Mexico
That. however, does not mean nor
should il be construed 10 lheau'
that thereby the American govern
ment seeks. as you say, 10 force an
election in favor Of the ConsIi'u-
tionalists. So far from that BENG
true, our experience in tins couh-
trv with bipartisan boards leads us
TO believe that this is the most
eficient method that can be devised
to secure a fair election and true
count Of the ballots
A matter not directly or indirectly
referred to in the Mexican statement i
omitted. The letter concludes with the
statement:
owe are happy at the oppor-
tunity your note gives US 10 repeal
that the United States wants MOTH
ing except the good Of her sister re-
public. The United States IS a
party TO the mediation in the hope
that il might lead to peace and that
the peace will lead 20 prosperity
The plan which the American rep
resentatives propose, and on which
we must. insist, has been formu-
lated solely with that end in view.
Actuated by these motives, we feel
that we may appeal to you and
through you to the other Mexican
representatives to read again our
plan in the light Of these words.
