Washington of Gen
eral Huerta, and the establishment OF
provisional government in Mexico in
which both the Huerta and the Constr
nationalist factions would be repre-
scented, is contemplated in plan
which the three South American medi-
ators are now working out to be pro-
posed for the solution of the entire
Mexican problem.
Rebels BaIk at Peace Plan.
Ell Paso, Texas-The plan for the
pacification of Mexico now being work
ed out by the South American media
tors and which, it is announced, would
eliminate Huerta and establish pro-
visional government in which both the
adherents of Huerta and the Constltu-
tionalists would be represented will
not be acceptable to the Constitution
alists, according to Constitutionalist
officers here.
The Constituencies will agree to
nothing less than the complete elm
ination of not only Huerta but his en-
tire party. They declare the ousting OF
Huerta will be but an empty victory
unless the principles for which Huerta
and his friends stand are abolished.
1.-THE Constitutionalist government
can contemplate nothing but complete
victory fer the reforms for which we
are standing" said Roberto V. Posquei,
ra, confidential agent Of General Car
ranzas party Mr.. Pesqueira spoke as
a member of the Constitutionalist par
tv, but his utterances heretofore have
accurately outlined the expressions
which later have followed from his
chief
"Why should we compromise witt
| them?" he asked. 1--WE have defeated
Huerta at every turn and why shoult
we yield cur advantage when we have
the reforms for which we strive al
most within our grasp. This has beer
a fight of hundred years for reform
and we will not be content to have
these years of fighting wasted
Other Constitutionalists Expressed
the belief that there was no basis
upon which the friends of Huerta ant
the Constitutionalists could work to
gether in common government.

DEATH OF SOLDIER
SUBJECT Of NOTE.
BRYAN SENDS SHARP NOTE TO
HUERTA DEMANDING A FULL
EXPLANATION
PRIVATE PARKS EXECUTED
Rebels Continue on Their Victorious
March Into Huerta's Important
Stroneholds.

Washington.-The United States de-
manded of the Huerta government
news of the fate of Private Parks, the
American infantryman who strayed in
to Mexican lines near Vera Cruz, de-
claring that unless information about
him was given Immediately the Amer
lean government would consider that
IAN unfriendly and hostile act had
been committed in violation OF the UNI
derstanding for cessation OF hostlll-
ties pending mediation.
President Wilson and Secretary Bry-
an, it was learned, drafted a strong
communication, after receiving word
from the Brazilian minister in Mexico
City that Parks had been executed"
No mention was made in the minister's
report of whether he was shot as
spy after a COurt-martial or whether
his body was burned, as has been re-
ported persistently to General Fun
Ston.
The American government cabled
| the Brazilian minister to inform the
| Huerta government of the strong feel
ing of the United States in the matter,
! directing him to make vigorous repre-
sensations concerning the incident.
| The note asked the minister to protest
to the Huerta government that il
Parks were alive the failure to eX-
plain his whereabouts was in itself an
unfriendly attitude, and that II the
soldier had been executed, as has been
reported, such execution of a man who
came into the Mexican lines in full
uniform was contrary to military pro-
cedure of civilized nations and was an
act of hostility.
No mention was made in the Ameri-
can note of the course the United
States intends to pursue in the matter
but an official close to the president
said it was one of the things which
would be held up against the Huerta
government when the final reckoning
came over offenses committed against
the United States.
Mediation Postponed.
Postponement of the Niagara FallE
Mexican mediation conference iron
Monday to Wednesday, at the reques
of the Huerta delegates, changed TIT
plans of the South American media
tors and the American commissioner
for departure, and at the same tim
: produced much speculation as to pos
/ sibe significance in the delay. Late
the Spanish ambassador here, who /
caring for the interests of Mexico i
the United States, authorized state
: ment that the delay merely mean
that the Huerta delegates wanted
brief respite from their long journe
= and had no political Importance.
