MEpiAToRs PROPOSED
 NEW COURSE.
Suggests Separate Conferences Between
 the United States and carranza
 Representatives

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 21-The mediators today proposed a new course of action which not only will proiong the proceedings but may eventually work out a solution of the Mexican problem. The news of the plans which is designed to prevent the deadlock between the American and Mexican delegates from abruptly ending the conference has been more closely guarded than any thing which has transpfred at the conference.
 It became known however that another effort was being made to bring the constitutionalists into close touch with the purpose of mediation with out formally admitting them. The suggestion contempfates separate conferences between the American delegates and representatives of the constitutionalists. Justice Lamar and Frederick W. Lehman would con unue the dealings with the Huerta delegates through the mediation board. In this way all elenfents in the Mexican situation would be drawn together and there would be no neces- sity for the declaration of an armis- tfce until some agreement was reached and approved by the oonst4tutionalists. The plan was said to be the result of the visit of Minister Naon of Argen- tina Monday to Washington, where President Wilson is understood to have emphasized the written statement of Justice Lamar that any agreement reached by the mediation board which was not approved by the constitution alists, would be a paper agreement" and would not accomplish the sole pur- pose of the United States which is the pacifcation of Mexico.
 It was reported tonight that the Washington government already had extended an invitation to General Car ranza to send his representatives to Niagara Falls, N r., to confer with the American delegates, but confirma- ton was lacking The reported depart ure Of Fernando Iglesias Calderon, leader of the Liberal party, from Sal toilo, for Washington presumably to take charge of -eonstitutionalist in terests in the United States was be- heved to have some bearing on de- yelopments here.
 Beyond saying that a definite step had been taken today which had raised their hopes, the mediators were silent
Norwich bulletin., 1914-06-22

M Paso, Texas June 21--=C4eneral Venustiano Carranza has forwarded his reply to the two notes of June 2 and sent him by the mediation com learned here tonight. According to information received here, his reply to the A. B. c. mediators was sent to the constitut.enalist headquarters at Washington to be forwarded to the Brazilian, Argentine Chilean and American members at the, Niagara Falls conference. Carranza's note. it is understood, reiterated his willing ness to have participated in the va rious conferences whose sole object of Mexico and whose good offices he tentatively recognized. The futility of the discussion of Mexican internal af- fairs. however, is pointed out.
 While thanking the mediatcrs for their efforts the first chief made plain, according to the word reaching here, that among the subjects he con- sidered it impossible to discuss are the proposed armistfce, military move ments of the constftutionalists, the agrarian question and the designation of a provisional president of Mexico. Says Grave Error Has Been Committed
 Carranza stated that he believed that he only complies with his duty as first chief of the constitutionalist forces when he declares that the grave error has been committed in at tempting to solve such questions of tranScendental importance to the Mexican people. It devolves upon the constitutonalists themselves, he held, to decide what is best for the inter ests of their country.
 The settling of such questions as the result of mediation, arbitration or even intervention, would be unaccept- able to the constitutionalists, he as- serts and he is therefore convinced that the conference at Niagara Falls will be without the definite result eK- pected by the interested parties and foreign nations = Reply Probably Ends Dipiomatie Cor
 rsspondence.
 The feeling in Saltillo, where Car ranza has established his capital, ac- oording to the word reaching this city is that the first chiefs reply has end ed the diplomatic incident connected with the interchange of notes Between the mediation commission and Car 3ranza. The lack of conformity on Carranza's part with the request of the mediators does not necessarily preclude a further exchange of notes but 1t is not believed an attempt will be made to renew the correspondence. In extending his sincere thanks to the mediators for their efforts Car ranza places himself at their 'atten- tive consideration."e
