NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. May 27.-
Bo favorable nave been the "conver.
Eations" between the "A. B. 9. mediat-
brs and .he two sets Of delegates at
tempting to settle the future Of Mex
leo. that 1t WAS believed today an
b,her full conference which might
possibly be called tomorrow. would
ave the way for early settlement.
10 disagreemen.s have yet occurred.
Following reports of differences OF
ppinion between. the Mexican and
american delegates on the land prob
lem, 1t was stated on the highest
authority today that this question was
khe least OF the troubles confronted
by the mediators. It is accepted that
land reforms must be enacted In Mex
leo. Otherwise pacif1cation Of the
country would be impossible. II is
REALIZED that the establishment Of any
new governmen. In the republic with
but land reforms would only mean
hnother revolution. Any provisional
government that may be established
win be pledged to land reforms. IN.
ludins 4 81 ~ Tor the redistr thpti0n
or which the revolutionists have
been hshting. Jus. now the confer
knce here will handle the matter Is
apparently the only question involved.
The Mexican delegates admit such
reforms should be a part Of the paci-
ncation plan.
The Mexicans feel that It is not the
duty Of the mediation conference to
write laws for Mexico. The land
problem has run through generations
and they do not believe it can be
solved here with one stroke OF the pen.
THE mediators may only take up such
|matters as the delegates propose and
y will rest with The American rep
|resentatives to suggest some move to-
ward removing this fundamental
cause OF all revolutionary movements.
THE question will be whether the scope
|of mediation will include set plan
for the solution OF the problem or
whether 1t will be left to the provis-
ional government.
Those close to the Mexican dele
gates do not believe that any direct
plan Of land reform will be put down
In black and white az a part Of the
fnal agreement. But they do believe
that the Mexican delegates will know
exactly what the United States ex-
poets in the solution OF this problem
and that the delegates will have .he
power of the American government
behind them in seeing that the re.
forms proposed are carried out.
The delegates expected to continue
their conversations today on board

WASHINGTON, May 27.-Just
what Roosevelt and the progressives
in congress- discussed behind closed
doors late last night, was divulged
for the first time today. The pro-
gressive leaders here insisted that
the 1916 presidential fight was not
considered or even mentioned. Meth
er was the prospect for amalgama-
ton of bull moose and republicans,
they insisted. They admitted that
Roosevelt set the stamp of his en-
phatic approval upon the efforts and
legislative program Of the progress
siyes in congress
According to Representative Kelly,
Of Pennsylvania, chairman of the bull
moose legislative committee, Roose-
velt received reports from House
Leader Murdock and Senator Clapp.
"Mr. Murdock explained the vari-
Gus progressive bills OF the session
and outlined activities of Individual
members" said Kelly. THE colonel
very strongly approved the course
followed by US.
I. Senator Clapp performed a SINH
