CANNOT GET TOGETHER

Hunted Press Leased Wire Eervice.]
WASHINGTON June 19.-Uniess
THE Huerta commissioners at Niagara
Falls recede, mediation is at an end.
II Is frankly stated here without
qualification that the United States
has given its last word. Either Huerta
retires voluntarily In favor Of . pro-
yisional government dominated by the
constitutionalists or the United States
will openly aid the rebels. There Will
be no invasion by United States
troops, but so soon as mediation pub
| licly collapses, the embargo on arms
i from the north will be again lifted in
favor Of the constitutionalists. There
will bs no discrimination against
Huerta other than that Vera Cruz will
continue to be held against him and
he will have to purchase any muni-
tons he needs abroad and get them in
through some other port.
Mexican affairs were again to bs a
subject Of discussion at today's regu-
lar cabinet meeting. Secretary Bryan
was still believer that At the last
moment the Huerta government Will
recede from THAR position and accept
.proyislc6 with Atrcag eonat1tntionAi
belief. He bases this ON the fact
that the medfators have men OF thsir
own choosing to sngssst and among
them some that would be acceptable
to Carranza, Villa and the other con-
stitutionalist leaders. He thinks that
in the finaf analysis, the Huertista
+ representatives. will be willing to &C
cept pressure from the mediators and
agree to men Of their choice rather
than permit the mediation plan to be
abandoned and then have Husrta driv-
en- from power by constitutionalist
guns.
Other members OF the cabinet were
not SO sanguine. They expect Huerta
to stay in Mexico City AND fight to
the last against his foes and fear that
II this does result. complications must
arise that will draw the United States
into the fighting against its will.
1t is no secret that nearly every
high oficial in Washington is firmly
convinced that Huerta prefers to sur
render Mexico City to the Americans
rather than the rebelr.
They believe that the announcement
from Niagara Falls that mediation
has collapsed will be the signal for an
attack on Funston's men that will
make reprisals absolutely necessary.
The war department through The gen.
eral staff, made all Of It's preparations
along this line. Bryan and the presi-
dent, however, expect the constitu'
tionalists to keep Huerta SO busily
engaged tha. he will need all Of his
troops in the north and will be unable
to commit any overt act against the
Americans at Vera Cruz.
Secretary Bryan and President Will
sen discussed the Mexican situation
for more than an hour today. Bryan
then talked with Justice Lamar at
Niagara Falls over the long distance
telephone. It was stated Bryan had
notified Justice Lamar that the Unit
ed States has decided to stand pat
on the position Of making no further
concession to Huerta's commissioners
One evidence that the administra
tion fears a total collapse OF mediation
was the announcement today that II
