NIAGARA FALLS. Ont, May 29,--
Juan Il. Urquidi, private secretary to
Rafael Zubaran, the Constitutionalist
agent at Washington, arrived here
today bearing a communication FROM
General Carranza to the mediators,
saying he is willing t. send "A repre-
sentative to the mediation conference
to discuss international differences
between the United States and Mex
leo.
Mr.. Urquidi said he came merely as
Il messenger TO deliver communica-
lion and not to discuss issues. He
expects to return tomorrow to Wash
ington.
When he arrived at the Hotel Cliff
ton he sent his card to Ambassador
aD CANA, who sent down word that
he WAS busy" but did not say
whether or not he would receive him
later in the day.
Accepts Mediation Principle.
Although Mr. Urquidi declined to
make public the contents Of the COM
nunication il is understood that Cen
eral Carranza reiterates his original
declaration that he accepted media
ton in principle on the condition that
international questions alone should
be discussed.
General CarranZa is unwilling that
the question of a new provisional
president should be discussed at any
International conference. He holds
that the occupation of Vera Cruz,
which directly gave rise to mediation
proceedings concerns all Mexican
factions as we'll as the Huerta gov
ernment, and that the Constitutions
alist chief should have voice in adj
justing differences which caused the
American troops to enter Mexico.
Asks About Consideration.
In his latest Communication he re-
veals his position and places before
the mediators the question of wheth-
er or not they will consider him in
adjustment Of the international side
of the Mexican situation.
WASHINGTON, May s9.-The
latest development apparently was
not construed here as affecting the
success of the negotiations. Secretary
BRYAN and other officials as they en-
tered the White House for the cabinet
meeting. declared the situation was
still progressing satisfactorily"
Constitutionalist officials still main
tained the position that should deie-
gates go to the Niagara conference
they would consider only the eX iernai
affairs of Mexico.
Secretary Bryan and Secretary
Daniels both said they still were
without confirmation of the reported
landing of the war cargoes OF the
Ypiranga and Bavaria at Parto Mex
leo.
Plans for Mexico's pacification
practically agreed upon at the Mag
ara conference were up for discussion
today in the Cabinet. With assur-
ances that the international phase of
the equation promised a satisfactory
solution, interest grew today In the
attitude that Carranza might take. 1t
was reported he had sent his repre-
sentatives here. with an announce
ment of his position toward the work
of the Niagara conference. The Con-
stitutionalist agents, however, de-
clined to discuss it.
