MINISTER NAON RETURNS TO

IMBIBED in CAPITAL
(By Associated Press)

Niagara Falls. Ont. June 2O.-In-
stead pr adjourning abruptly, as ex-
pectcd, the mediation proceedings
VIII be prolonged perhaps for another
| week.
Ihc change was brought about as a
result OF the visit of Minister Naon OF
Argentina, to Washington. where he
conferred with President Wilson and
secretary bryan. DR.. Naon brought
pack spirit of optimism and some
new ideas which he impaired to Am
Dassador da CANA, of Brazil, and
Minister Suarez. of Chile. 1t was an
nounced after their talk that there
would be no conferences until Mon
day. The Argentine envoy reiterated
the hopefulness he expressed earI,er
In the day.
The determination reached is to
Keep the mediation board from for
NAL adjournment though there NAV
ne recess In another week or sn
while the search is continued for per-
sons eligible. according to the ideas
set forth In the conferences. for nro.
vlsional president of Mexico.
Although no definite plan has been
framed, all parties expressed a wish
to make renewed effort to effect a
compromise.
There Is every reason to believe
that the friction between Carranza
ana villa, and the report that Cen
eral Huerta Intended to retire in fay-
OF OF PEDRO Lascurain affected the
mediators In their decision. The pos
SlDliity Of Developments insMexico' In
tue immediate INN future Which might
s1ahalssS tasss ssts. me esprshs
lemf here also has been taken Into
consideration.
Only Optimism.
Dr. Naon's idees, 1t is believed, have
NOT cdystallized into definite pro-
pcsal. The impression here is that
his chief object in protesting opti-
mism Is to prevent the deadlock be-
tween Americans and Mexicans from
precipitately ending the negotiations
The American view is best reflected
by the statement of President Wilson
that the outlook is more hopeful"
The view OF the Hucrta government.
as expressed by MIR. Rabassa is that
the Mexican delegation will not take
the initiative II the conference is to
break up. DR.. Naon summed up the
situation from the med!eto point OF
view. when he predicted tia, ;he neg
citations would be continue! another
two weeks.
1t rests with the mediators wheth-
or the conference shall be continued.
II, after the rejection of the American
and Mexican proposals. the mediators'
plan should meet the same fate. the
conferences automatically would he
ended. but there is no need for the,
mediators to subject their plan to the.
test until they are ready.

PREMIER ASQUITH
RECEIVES WOMEN
Hears the Side of the Sufrageiies
Told by Party Of Working
Class

London, June 20.-Premier Asquith
today fulfilled his promise to- receive
u deputation of suffragettes. A party
OF six working women, members OF
Miss Sylvia RankhuIst's East End
Federation. visited the prime minis
ter at his residence The proceed
ings were orderly except for a little
roughness on the part Of some work
men who had come to "see that their
women got fair play"
The women urged the cause of wO-
men suffrage from their special point
OF view. Mies pankhurst was not
present as Mr.. Asquith had insisted
that the deputation must be composed
OF genuine working women.
Z Mr.. Asquith argued that II every
woman over 20 years OF age possess
cd the vote. they would still find the
legislative problems exceedingly diff
fcult of eolution in the same way as
the men had found them He agreed
with the deputation that II the fran
chise were given to women 1t should
be granted on the same terms as 1t
was given TO the men. M
The premier explained that 1t had
become necessary to suppress the or
ganized violence of. the militant suf-
fragettes but the government had no de-
sire to interfere with free speech or
the proper organization OF opinion.
He promised consideration or the
women's representations and said he
would present to Reginald McKenne,
tho home secretary. their request for
the unconditional release Of Miss
Sylvia Pankhufst.
