 He Says.

Washington, June 9.-John Lind, who acted as President Wilson's spe- cial representative to Mexico and who, since his return to this country, has been a special representative of the state department in dealing with the constitutionalist agents in Washing ton, left here tonight for, his home in Minnesota.
 Explanatory of his departure, Cover nor Lind said:
 "I do not feel that there is any longer any necessity for giving my entire time to the government, and asked the president to allow me to leave for my home. My request was granted.
 "Of course, I will remain subect to the call of the president and the sec retary of state, and if at any time either of them think I will be Of as' sistance, I will return to Washington
 q do not contemplate any such necessity. I think my absence iron the capital will be permanent"
 Lind's retirement from participation in the administrators dealings witE the Mexcan stuaton, in which he has been it's chief adviser, is interpreted to mean that mediation is expected tt be a long drawn-out proceeding.

FIVE TO GOVERN MEXI- co TEMPORARILY. U. 5. WILL NOT ASK WAR INDEMNITY Land Reform Problem to Be Left to New Government
 for Solution.
HUERTISTAS TO BE FULLY PROTECTED
United States Will Eyaeuate Vera Cruz as Soon as Permanent Gov
 prnment Is Established
 Uuertn's Creditors Secured.

Clifton House Niagara Falls. June S.-At 6 prolonged session with the A. BIC. mcdiators today, the AIne"- ican delegates again urg 'G the cause Of CarranZa They informed tl.e plenipotentairics that Carranzas re- ply was on it's way and tl,a. 1t makes concessions which would facilitate the admission of the rebel envoys.
 The Americaps are said to have emphasized the point that Carranza's proclamation of himself as he pro- visioaal president of Mexico las greatly strengthened his pos. ton. ie is now q power that has to be reck- oned with.
 In their desire for the paciiication of Mexico the mediators said they would allow the United. States to as- sume the entire responsibility of bringing the revolutionist leader to terms
 It has been the intention of the mediators to make public the corre5- pondence between themselves and Carranza, but at the request of the Americans they decided to wait un- til. they received Carranzas note.
 The mediators discussed with the Americans both the American plan and also the counter plan of the Mexicans for the reorganization of Mexican affairs.
 A tentative agreement was reached on these points:
 First, that if Huerta agrees to the establishment of stable government the United States would not insist upon war indemnity Second. that the proposed provis-. ional government will asume all debts and the obligations incurred by the Huerta regime with other na- tions. Third. that the provisional govern ment shall guarantee the personal safety and property rights of Huerta officials and supporters. and grant T general amnesty to all factions. Fourth. that all the details of the land reform question shall be left to the new government for solution. Fifth. that the five officials-who heard the provisional government shall be men whose records commit them to the execution of these re- forms.
 Sixth. that Vera Cruz would he evtcuated by the Americans as soon as a permanent government is estab- lished that is found to be proof against factional revolt. One item that was discussed but
 which. it is said met with protest from the Mexican delegates, is the proposal that the United States should have the power to interview in case the new government fails. This plan is based on much the same lines as the Platt amendment. which
 has enabled the United States to maintain peace in Cuba.

ONE CRIT|C|SES WILSON AND BRYAN Man Named Humphreys from Washington Gets in
 Limelight. VILLA AN ASSASSIN" Safe in Hall of Congress, Arraigns Ad- miniStratiOn for Giving Arms to
 "BanditS and AssAssins"
 of Mexico.
VILLA AN ASSASSIN

Washington. June 9.-Rdpresenta- tive Humphreys of Washington criti- Cised in the house President Wilson and Secretary Bryan for giving Villa and hi s'bandits and assassins" arms
 with which they may later attack Americans and for permitting John Lind, former personal representative in Mexico, to counsel and direct the acts of Charles A. Douglas, the Consti- tutionalists' legal representative in Washington.
 It was charged by Representative Humpreys that Douglas secured his position with the onstitutionalists be- cause of his personal relations with Secretary Bryan. This statement re- vived in the house former gossip connecting Mr. Douglas with the Ni1 cara9uan government in an attempt to
 float with New York bankers, a 3D. 300, ,O00 loan for Nicaragua.
 It was rumore that MT. Douglas was
 to receive 2 per cent on the loan for
 his services, or $50,000, but, the loan
 could not be cOnsummated until the
 new treaty between this country and Nicaragua proposed by MT. Bryan had
 been ratified by the senate. Mr. Bryan went before the senate committee on
 foreign relations and urged immediI
 ate and favorable action on the treaty
 but the senate committee was not sat
 isfied with it and it is still held up.

 PRO. AMENDMENT
Democrats Decide to Act at This Term on Hobson Resolution.

SUFFRAGE TOPIC 0F CLUB WOMEN Woman's Suffrage Organiza- tions May Get Repre-
 entation.
  HAVE FRENCH GOWNS Although ll-BuSiness-Like Suits Will Be Worn During Sessions, Delegates Will Bloom Forth at Big
 Reception.
HAVE FRENCH GOWNS

| Chicago, June 9.-The equal suf- frage element of the General Fedora tion of Women's Clubs, which will meet in biennial session here tomor- row night, today claimed victory in a preliminary skirmish. The skirm- ish took place in secret meeting of | the general council of the federation yesterday. A majority of those pres ent expressed themselves it is said, in 1 favor of allowing woman's suffrage organizations to have representations in conventions on an equality with non-political clubs.
 WOmen's clubs are allowed to send delegates and the state organizations with which they are affiliated also send them, but as the rule stands at present, while suffrage clubs individ- ually may appoint delegates their state organizations may not. The council is said to have indicated yesterday that it would favor the admittance of dele gates from state equal suffrage organ izations.
 Every train today brought delegates, and the headquarters was busy with details connected with their welfare. A bit of gossip today was that real prac- tical politicians, with an eye on the
 women, vote, were working to keep l the prohibition question from arising l in the convention.
 Delegates from Indiana have can-
 didate for the presidency of the fed
 eration in 1916 in the person of Grace
 Julian Clarke of Indianapolis. It is
 assumed that custom will be followed in the reelection of Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker of Texas, as president
 this year, but the Indiana women are prepared to play astute preliminary
 politics for their candidate two years
 hence.
