HUERTA MUST CHOOSE
BETWEEN FLIGHT AND .
Death BY HIS ENEMY
End Of His Regime Is at Hand, for 1t
Is Certain the Mediators Will Agree
That He Must Co-Arrival Of the
Commissioners at Washington

boyish looking Naon sauarely in the
eyes, he said:
Common Interest in Peace.
Let me say how gratifying 1t Is that
it should fall within my time that the
long deserved recognition of the full
rank and sisterhood of your two coun-
tries should have been accorded. You
have so thoughtfully and gracefully Of
fered to show our common interest in
the peace and righteous government of
America that 1t is particularly fitting
that this thing should occur"
Diplomats pointed out that as a re-
suit of the frequent conferences be-
tween the mediators and Bryan, the
president realizes their view. Much
has been communicated at these con-
ferences that had been withheld from
the public. Consequently the declara-
tion that the mediators had a COM
mon result in the peace and righteous
government of America was believed
to be no idle phrase, but a declaration
of principle that will be reflected from
the meetings at Niagara Falls.
First Hand Information.
During the last SO hours the media
tors have received at first hand ex-
haustive information regarding exact
conditions in Mexico. From represent
atives of their nation in the north and
from sources controlled by the state
department, they have now complete
knowledge of the exact territory held
by the constitutionalists. They have
been told that commerce and trade in
all Of that section is to be resumed.
They also know actual conditions in
the south. They are said to be con-
vinced the rebels declaration that they
will be pounding at the very gates of
Mexico City within a month is not an
idle boast. With that knowledge in
their possession they have framed the
proposition they expect to make to the
commissioners.
Fears that the murder of Private
Parks might cause complications, COM
pelling American reprisals against Fu-
erta, We're considerably allayed today
Secretary Bryan explained that his
demands do not predict aggression
even If 1t is admitted that Parks was
slain. Fixing of responsibility for his
death and punishment of his slayers
may be deferred until 1t Is shown
whether the mediators are successful
in settling the entire Mexican trouble
There Is to be no obstacle interposed
by this government to Carranza get
ting arms and ammunition through the
port of Tampico.
Decision Reached at Conference.
This decision was believed to have
been reached at a conference between
President Wilson and Secretary Bryan
today Arms and ammunition now at
Havana are expected to be shipped
across the gulf next week. There is
also strong possibility that ammu-
milton purchased Just before the en-
barge was restored on shipments
across the Texas border and now
stored at New Orleans, Galveston.
Charleston and New York, will be
started for Tampieo by water.
That the Mexican commissioners to
the Niagara Falls mediation confer
ences did not ask for the postpone
ment of the sessions from Monday to
Wednesday developed late tonight.
AT the dinner at the Spanish en-
bassy they were asked why they had
taken this action and to the surprise
OF all present, they Indignantly denied
1t. They suggested that this action
might have been taken following a re-
quest from Dictator Huerta.
