problem is purely internal and that
definite and binding recommenda tions
concerning 1t should not be included
In any agreement made here, the
American view that some expression is
desirable to point the way for it's
eventual settlement by Mexico herself
has been sustained.
The parleys of the last two days
indicate that a declaration of the prin-
ciples on land reform as a basis for
future study of the question will be
included in whatever protocol the dele
gates sign here
The Mexicans have no objection to
this, for while they do not admit that
the land problem has been the chief
cause of their revolutions, as Presi-
dent Wilson insists, they say all politi-
cal parties in Mexico have pledged
themselves to land reform and a proc
lamation cannot embarrass any future
congress.
1t would create no surprise here IL
one of the results of mediation should
be recognition by the government of
the legality of some of the important
financial transactions of the present
Mexican congress, which were made the
subject of formal condemnatory notice
to the powers of Europe.
Continued hostility by the Wilson
administration against these acts, the
Mexicans argue, would seriously en-
tangle the financial relations of their
country. They point to the fact that
the leading European powers recognize
the acts as legal. That the United
States might waive this point to make
smooth the road to peace is the conf
dent expectation of the Mexican dele
gates. Some of the mediators and del
egates predicted that unless a hitch
occurred over details, the subject
would be adjusted before the constitu-
tionalist army possibly can reach Mex
leo City, Notwithstanding General VII

Constitutionalists Show Interest.
FL Paso, May 27.-The outcome of
the mediation proceedings at Niagara
is of absorbing interest among agents
here of the Huerta government and
the constitutionalists. Conferences be-
tween General Carranza at Durango
and Rafael Zubaran Capmany, his rep
itSSlltdllN6 bL w WdSlllflS lOHs WHICH nave
been held daily, continued over leased
telegraph wires.
While there was no inkling as to the
exact point Of discussion, 1t was not
denied that 1t had referred entirely to
the international position of the Mex
lean revolutionists. The belief was ex-
pressed, however. by those in close
touch with the situation that neither
General Carranza nor his followers
would alter their stand against deal
ing in any way with the Huerta ennis
Saries.
Fernando Iglesia Calderon, a leader
of the liberal party, who was here on
his way to visit Carranza, expressed
himself in a manner which went to
show that the elements he represented
agreed with the constitutionalist COM
mander in chief. Iglesia Calderon said
he had sent message to Carranza
from Havana, in which he put himself
at his orders, and that Carranza in
turn requested a visit to discuss the
general situation.

Early Agreement Expected.

Niagara Falls, Ont, May 27.--The ac-
tual terms and details OF plan for
the pacification of Mexico are now un-
der discussion by the mediation con-
ference, according to an announcement
last night by Justice Lamar. An early
agreement is now anticipated.
The turn in the proceedings, from
point where 1t seemed as If the land
problem might cause serious embar-
rassment, to an understanding as to the
treatment of some of the delicate is
sues involved came after a conference
between the mediators and the Ameri-
can delegates.
Desiring to avoid the appearance of
having had their provisional president
chosen at an international conference,
the Mexican delegates have evolved the
plan of suggesting to the mediators
list of names from which might be Sc
lected number on whom the United
States would look with favor If from
1t were chosen an ad interim executive
The actual choice of an individual from
the list of eligibles would be sanctioned,
1t Is suggested by the Mexican con-
gress. There is reason to believe, how
ever, that before any list is approved
by the American government, some
tacit Endorsement from the constitu-
ttonalists must come.
The plan of pacification is known to
have for its object the establishment of
new provisional government. As
program for It, there will be declara-
ton of principles on agrarian and other
reforms, and on the conduct of fair
election.
