Tampico Subsides-Watchful Wait |
ing Policy Gets New Lease of Life
in Mexican Matters.
WASHINGTON. - Information
that Huerta will not attempt to pre-
vent arms and ammunition from reach
ing Carranba by way of Tampico gives
another lease of life to the watckfrl
waiting policy and brightens trife
the prospect of its success.
That is the way Washington oflcia''
dow views the news of the day--that
HUerta had decided to abandon his
blockade of Tampico. The A. B. G.
mediatOrs will go ahead. Huerta viii
quit if the interests OF his party are
safeguarded. Carranza and Villa VIII
get guns enough and ammunition
enough to force an entry into Mexico
City, where, in the meantime they
send representatives to Niagara Fails
they, although victorious ana with the
situation in their own hands, may
agree to a program for complete paci-
ticatiOn in whihc their own influence,
OF course, shall be paramount.
Huerta Weakens; Blockade Off.

a setback in the peace negotiations.
New Plan to Mediators.
NIAGARA FALLS, ONT. - The
three mediatOrs have in their posses
sion a new and complete plan for the
settlement of the Mexican situation
which has been submitted to them by
the delegates of the United States.
This plan they have been carefully
perusing. and it will probably occupy
most of their time today. This new
plan is a comprehensive review Of all
the vital points in the Mexican prob
Il.
Although nothing definite has been
given out regarding this new note, it
is learned that the plan contains a
compromise offer through which it is
expected to bring General Carranza
into the conference

Lehman, the American delegates, ar
rived at the Clifton House at II
o'clock and remained only half an
hour with the mediatOrs. After the
conference Justice Lamar said:
"The mediators have heretofore sub
mitted to us a complete plan and we
have now submitted to them our plan.
Our counter proposition contains
not only the suggestions which we
make and upon which there has been
neither agreement nor disagreement
to the plan, but also the points upon
which they had already agreed. Some
of the points suggested have already
been discussed
The chief feature of the new plan
submitted by the United States is an
understanding through which General
Carranza will take part in the confer
ence.
