Washington, d. C., July 1.-The next
moves in the attempt to restore peace in
Mexico through diplomacy depended to-
day upon Carranzas attitude toward the
sending of delegates to confer with the
Huerta mission While the South Amer
lean mediators decided to take an in
definite recess, it was assured that the
Washington government would continue
its efforts to persuade the constitution
alists to enter into some form Of nego-
tiations with the representatives OF the
Mexico City administration.
Niagara Falls, Ont, July An indefi-
mite recess Of mediation was decided
upon yesterday by Ambassador Da Cana
of Brazil and Ministers Suarez and Naon
of Chile and Argentina. respectively.
This action followed the receipt of a
note from General Carranza, expressing
an inclination to participate in informal
conferences with Huerta delegates for
the solution of Mcxica's internal prob
lens, but asking for more time in which
to consult his subordinate generals
Carranza declared he wished to get
full authority from the signers of the
plan of Guadalupe, the platform of the
eonstitutionalst movement, so that dele
gates might be clothed with plenary
powers. He gave no inklng as to the
length of time such consultation might
require.
In the meantime, Ambassador Da Ga
ma, who returned here yesterday after
weeks vacation, announced he would
leave again to-day for his summer home

will depart tonight for Washington,
where he may talk further with Luis
Cabrera, one OF the eonstitutionalists
agents, and Washington government Off
eials. Minister Suarez said he should
leave here Thursday for Washington
The American delegates will be the
last to leave. They are awaiting definite
instructions from Washington. The me
diators explained last night that media
tion had not adjourned, but that perhaps
the last formal meeting had been held.
Communication hereafter will be carried
on by telegraph from the respective
homes of the mediators and delegates.
Ambassador Da Cana pointed to the
fact that the mediation of boundary
dispute between Ecuador and Peru in
rendered their good offices in 1910, was
still in progress. A mediation board he |
explained is not like an international |
with definite time for meet |
ing and adjourning and fixed program |
Mediation chiefly offers advice to parties |
at conflict and devises means for the |
of international disputes.
The mediators consider that their chief I
work has been done. They have drawn I
up a series of protocols setting forth |
The conditions under which the United |
States will recognize new government.
When a satisfactory government is es-
,ablished American forces will be with
irawn and both international and inter
lal problems solved simultaneously.

VI their tender of good offices, hope was
by Secretary Bryan that the
several clements" in Mexico might be
brought together and the country paci-
led. The three ENJOYS think that in
levising the plan for informal confer
noes between the two factions their
wn task is ended and the responsibility
or the completion of the peace program
ests on the Mexicans themselves. The
esult of those conferences may or NAV
