Z MEXICAN SITUATION
 HALTS VACATIONS
Pending Outcome of Niagara Falls Conference Members of Diplomatic.
 Corps to Remain in Washington.

Washington. May 27.--With the Mexican situation still unsettled and as nearly all nations have a personal interest in the outcome Of the media ton negotiations now in progress at Niagara Falls, Ont, and can better ]handle, such international questions as may arise with their diplomatic rep- resentatives. in Washington, vacation plans of the entire diplomatic corps 2 here have come to a halt. The mid- dle of May usually finds the envoys here preparing to leave for Europe or making arrangements to open up tfrSir summer homes in this country, but this season all such plans have been held in abeyance. Many mem- bers of the corps either intend to stay in Washington during the hot days or be near at hand to await the outcome of the Niagara Falls confer ence. -#
 The Spanish ambassador, MT. Rfano, who is looking after Mexico's interests in Washington at the pres ent time, does not know how long he is going to be here. The ambassador and his wife had planned to spend 41e summer at Newport, R. T., but the time of their departure depends on the outcome of the mediation confer ence It is probable, however, that Mrs. Riano will leave here some time in advance Of her husband
 And so 1t is with practically every member of the diplomatic corps. They are hoping that they will not have to spend the summer in Wash ington, but declare they intend to re- nlafffsRt long as the Mexican situation demands their presence here. :...

HEAT EXPANDS RAILS,
 TROLLEY IS DERAILED
King Bolt on Car from Hartford Broken in Accident It Newing-
 ton-Passengers Shaken Up.

Rails thrown out of alignment by expansion caused by excessIvo heat were responsible for the derailmsnt at Newington this noon, of the New Britain bound trolley cur, which left Hartford at 1922, with u large mum Der of passengers. .9 According to passengers, the car was. moving along at a fair rate of speed on tracks which are just being repaired Near Edward Isalfs stone quarry, the wheels suddenly left the rails and bumped along on the ties for some distance, breaking the king bolt of the car. When 1t stopped, the car was standing across the tracks. A hurried investigation slicited the information that no one had been in- iured to any extent Many of the messengers were New Britain people. They were conveyed to this city In another car.
 A New Britain crew, had charge oi the car, the conductor being C.. H. Brown and the motorinun, l.. T. Sund- gren.
 In explaining the accident to the Herald. an official of the Hartford division of the Connecticut company, stated that the tracks in that vicinity have been undergoing repairs for ~some time. The worknIen had exea- vated around the ties and rails. talk ing away the only means of resist ance against expansion.
 A woman, who was a passenger on the deraiied car called up the Herald a short time later for the purpose ot lauding the motorinan for sticking to his post. In her opinion the car would have plunged over an embanS- ment on the other side had IL not been for his alacrity in applying the brakes.
 Traffic on the Hartford line, was somewhat impaired this afternoon, but it is expected that the regular schedule will be maintained early ttis evening.

 Early Agreement Predicted.
 On these issues the mediation con ference is preoccupied at present, but indications point to an early agree ment on all points of difference.

 work for the day. Informal discus
 sions were to take. place during the
 journey between the border and To-
 ronto. Just how far they had pro-
 ceeded in their conferences over ac-
 tual terms and details of many things
 considered necessary for the pacifica-
 tion of the southern republic was no,
 revealed in Washington, but the op-
 timistic attitude of the mediators ana
 the members of the opposing mis-
 sions was reflected by officials here.
 President Wilson and his cabinet
 members were decidedly hopeful. That
 the preliminary basis for peace be-
 lieved to be maturing at the confer

 protocol was not an unexpected de- velopment.

The med iation colony prepared to leave here early and will return tonight. En- route they probably will have some informal discussion about the media | tion problem. No regular confer ences were contemplated.
 All Highly Optimistic. As the party left for Toronto for | day of real diversion 1t was evident l that all were highly optimistic. With the land question satisfactor- | fly adjusted, the mediators and dele 1 gates were concentrating their atten- 1 tion on the exact manner in which

ACTIVITY DISPLAYED IN MARKET TRADE
Canadian Pacific Issues Feature
 Win Gain of Two Points.

10:45 A. M.-The comparative strength and activity of today's early dealings were popularly ascribed to the latest turn in the Mexican nego- tiations, coupled with further encour- aging crop advices. London fur nished a generally higher level of quotations for our securities and that advance. was more than sustained here. Canadian Pacific was the lea ture with a two point gain, and the usual leaders rose material fractions. The only noteworthy exception to the rising tendency was New Haven, which yielded a point.
 Closing-The market closed strong stocks scored general gains on the day, the early period of which was marked by moderate activity, later giving way to renewed dullness. Prices shaded a little from the best in the final deal ings, but a sudden spurt in Mexican Petroleum advanced that stock 1 5-S.

On the Rebound.

The slump in business resulting
from the war has been felt keen
ly throughout the country in all
lines of commerce.
But It is on the rebound, and
unless all signs fail 1t will soon
be hitting the pike on the home
stretch.
We of this community may do
much to strengthen the feeling
of optism even before the general
relief is felt.
We can keep what money we
have in circulation at home by
doing our buying from our home

We can add to our financial
store by shipping our surplus
products abroad and keeping that
money at home.
