Differences Between Mexico and
the United States Have
Been Adjusted.

OVosS nV)VVtVUs
Niagara Falls, Ont, June 25.-Terms
for composing all international Diff
ferences between the United States
and Mexico have been concluded.
The conditions under which diplo-
matte relations will be resumed were
embodied in a protocol which was
signed by the ambassador from Bra
zil, the ministers Of Chile and Argen-
tina, and the American and Huerta
delegates.
> The character of the settlement is
not expected to arouse opposition
from the Constitutionalists, who will
participate in and to large degree
will mold the adjustment of all in
ternal disputes.
When new provisional government
is established to succeed that head
ed by General Huerta, the result of
mediation as a triumph
for Pan-American diplomacy-will be-
come effective.
Coincidentally with the action taken
it was announced that the actual Sc
lection of a provisional president and
the organization of the new govern
ment, which is considered a purely
internal problem, will be left to an
informal conference of representa-
tives of the Constitutionalists-L
Cabrera, Rafael Zubaran and Jose
Vasconcelos-and the delegates sent
by General Huerta to the mediation
conference.
Conference Delays Adjournment.
= No formal adjournment of the medi.
alton will be taken, but there will be
no sessions while the representatives
of the two warning factions in Mexico
endeavor to arrive at an agreement
on the personnel of the new govern
ment, the agrarian and educational
reforms and other internal problems.
The formal session of mediators
and delegates prepared the ways for
the complete settlement of the diff
culties between the United States and
Mexico growing out of the failure of
Huerta officer at Tampico to salute
the Stars and Stripes, which was de-
manded as PREPARATION for the arrest
of American bluejackets.
The single outstanding provision in
the protocol is that the international
problem shall be declared adjusted on
the establishment of the new provi-
sional government. The protocol sets
forth that:
1.-THE United States and Argentina,
Brazil and Chile-the mediating coun-
tries shall recognize the new pro.
visional government and that thence.
forth diplomatic relations between
the United States and Mexico shall be
resumed.
America Asks No Indemnity.
1.-THE United States demands no
indemnity and does not exact further
satisfaction for any of the incidents
connected with the patrol of Mexican
waters and invasion of'the country.
"A commission shall be appointed
to adjust private claims growing out
of the revolution and international
Incidents" .@
The protocol was drafted and its
phraseology telegraphed to Washing
ton for approval. #--.-a@.
Later word came from President
Wilson and Secretary Bryan author
izing the American delegates to sign
it. H
The results of the medfators' work
places the issue now squarely before
the representatives of the two war
ring factions. On them will rest the
responsibility for failure or success
of the peace plans as a whole. The
mediators and American delegates
will stand by to lend helping hand
and give their counsel. when sought.
It was decided by the mediators
and delegates to postpone considera-
ton of the exact date when American
forces shall be withdrawn from Vera
Cruz. This, as we'll as the constitu-
ton of the new provisional govern.
ment in Mexico, will be protocolized
after the conferences between the
/ Constitutionalists and Huerta dele
gates adjourn.
