BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, June 9.-EVery indica-
tton here today pointed to some form
of constitutional participation in the
Niagara Falls negotiations 1t is eX-
pected CarranZa's definite position
will be communicated to Niagara Falls
in a few hours. SOME Constitutional
lists here in touch with Carran2a say
their chief won't consent to an armis-
tice. but will agree to peace proposals
relating to the establishment Of a pro-
visional government pending a general
election. provided the Constitutional
lists have representation in the pro-
visional government
Should Carranza refuse an ar7nis-
tice 1t seems here improbable that the
znedlators will receive the Constitu-
aionaJists representatives in the CON
ference.
NO ONE SELECTED.
No names have been agreed upon
Between the Mexican or American
delegates for the new provisional
president or his cabinet. In fact
neither side has yet made it's nomina-
tions.
The program of the proceedings is
about as follows:
within a day or two the Mexican
plan and the American plan will have
been dove tailed into one and a full
conference OF all parties will be called
Final approval is not expected inn
mediately from either marty, how
the American delegates to ascertain
the attitude OF the Consdtutionalists.
. This may proceed through the Wash
angton government or in any manner
the delegates chose. The mediators
will take a brief recess in the mean
time.
Should there be any new suzges-
tons from the Constitutionahsts the
United States government will en-
deaVor to arrive at compromise
them n MT iS
reached, the results again will be
placed before the mediation board and
the Huerta delegates. The eXpeCta-
1ion is that if the Constitutionalists
are willing to discuss the peace plan
with the American government, an
agreement can be reached in shOr,
time as the program already makes
provision for liberal participation by
the Constitutionalists in the new pro-
Visiona1 government.
INSIST ON ARMISTICE.
The correspondence between the
mediators and the Constitutionaists
is expected to be brought to an end
in another day or two. The media
tors are insiStent on their original
eams-declaratiOn of an arrnistice
international to internal questions
The Constitutionalists are willing to
meet the mediators on a satisfactory
basis as to the latter point, but they
are determined against declaring any
armiStice.
1t was announced by the mediating
plenipotentiaries last night and they
would make public today their cor
respondence with the Constitutional
lists, but word was received today
through the American delegates that
General CarranZa'S answer to their
latest note already had been dispatch
ed to Washington and would be for
warded by Rafael Zubaran. The final
communication from the mediators in
reply to the note brought here by
Juan F. Urquidi referred to a para
graph saying that the differences be-
tween the United States and Mexico
ought not to be resolved without
Constitutionalists being represented.
The mediators asked if this meant
that General Carranza was willing to
answer the negotiations on the origi-
nal terms and, if so, said that dele
gates should be sent here at once.
No answer from the Constitutional
lists which does not declare for an i'm
to enter the negotiations. The medi-
point and whatever communication on
the subject Mr.. Zubaran may send
now, as a result Of his telegraphiC
conferences with General CarTanza
will not alter the program outlined
by the mediators unless an armistice
IS declared. The Constitutionaltsts
have agreed to declare an armistiCe
