PRESIDENT AND ADVISERS
WATCHING FOR ALL REPORTS

Washington. May 21-President
Wilson and his advisers today gave
their attention to reports of the open
ing of the Niagara Falls conference
and confidently awaited next develop
ments in the mediation proceedings.
Reports of the American delegates
Justice Lamar and Former Solicitor
General Lehmann-weTe received at
the White House over a private tele-
phone wire direct from the MISSIONS
headquarters on the American side Of
the border
Villas determination to delay press
ing his campaign against SaltilIo until
a tymile stretch of railway had
been repaired and the absence of dis
turbing reports from Vera Cruz and
Mexico City gave administration lead
ers the opportunity to address praC-
tically ali their attention toward Nj
agara Falls. HuertaS denial that his
delegates were authorized 30 concede
his elimination, if that appeared to be
q. precedent necessary to the success
Of mediation, caused little unea siness.
Such a public proclamation by Huerta
was not to be expected, despite as
surance from various sources that Ill
timately he would not stand out
against a proposal for his retirement.
Government officials today were
pleased over news of cordial and in
formal personal relations among mem
beTs of the two missions and the South
American ENJOYS that marked the
opening Of the conference. Such con-
ditions were considered unusually
propitious for the serious phases of
the proceedings that will be encoun-
tered later.
There remained. however. disturbing
factors in the equation today. The
continued absence of the news Of
movements of John r. Silliman. Amer
n al hN- a
at Saltillo and later reported to be
on his way to Mexico, caused some
apprehension. HueTta had not yet re-
ported the fate Of Samual Parks, the
American soldier who was reported TO
have been executed after wandering
from Funston'S lines at Vera Cruz. Il
was said. however, that the federal die
tator had instituted an investigation.
NO HITCH WHATEVER.
Everything is working smoothly;
there has been no hitch whatever
was the answer of Secretary of State
Bryan today to inquiries about the
preliminary mediation conferences
over Mexican difficulties at Niagara
Falls, Canada, after he had conferred
reviewed dispatches from American
Commissioners Lamar and lehman
regarding the negotiations thus far.
After Secretary Bryan's announce
ment, unofficial but reliable informa-
tion was reiterated in official quarters
that General Huerta had placed him
self uureseTv eddy in the hands of the
three commissioners representing his
interests at Niagara Falls. 1t posi-
lively was declared that Mexican COM
miss toner's authority included the right
to effect Huertas placement as a
condition of final settlement

side a s talks or conversations" indi-
eating that what was being done was
chiefly for the guidance Of all parties
in shaping the course OF the mediation
In the talk Of the mediators with the
American delegates, no points We're
preached as having been authorized
by the Mexican delegates bu the sub
stance of the talk was nevertheless
communicated today by the American
delegates to Washington in view of the
policy they adopted of keeping Presi
dent Wilson and Secretary Bryan
closely advised of developments here
TCday's conference between the South
American nediators and the Mexican
delegates marked the conclusion OF
the first step in the attempt being
made 10 compose differences between
the United States and Mexico.
The conference between the Mexican
delegates and the mediators lasted an
hour. At its conclusion, EmeIio, chair
man of the Mexican delegates, said:
We were merely changing ideas and
getting each others point of view.
These informal conferences first with
the Americans and then with the Mex
lean delegates will continue until there
is some definite point TO lay before
the full conference. No definite basis
of settlement was suggested to us to-
day We merely talked over the whole
situation"
Senior zabasa did not know how
many Informal sessions would be held
before another full conference of both
sides occurs. But he indicated that
the process was necessarily SLOW until
each side had fully explained its po-
sition.
The medlators had not decided when
the morning conference had adjourned
when they would confer with the
American representatives again.

CHILDREN LOVE
SYRUP OF FIGS
1t is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the "dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics-
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little .'insides" are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
OF mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child, tomor-
row.

our first attempt we were driven back
by a thunderstorm and a stay of some
hours to dry in the hut with the stove

we returned to the hut next day from
the valley there were at least four
severe colds among us, with sneez-

HIS PROMISE TO DO BETTER

Circumstances.

The late George A Hearn, the mil

kind and reasonable treatment of his
employees. Mr. Hearn used to smile at
the new scientific management craze,
of which he once said at a dinner:
These scientific management peo-
pie, with their impossible claims of
doubling and trebling a mans labor,
remind me of the humble hodcarrier's
impossible promise

hodcarrier:

you to carry bricks up that ladder by

Yes, sir, said the hodcarrier,

you've only done it half a day today.
