ropean Powers in Mexico city. II Is
clear to see what the advantage might
be to Huerta in such An arrangement.
The three South American republics
which have proposed mediation have
not recognized him. having followed
the lead Of the United States in this
matter. England, France and Germany
have extended recognition.
With the United States entirely elm
mated and with the proposals emanat-
ing from peoples Of a kindred blood and
having many common interests. Huerta
may be disposed to give these sugges-
tons careful consideration.
The plan Of the mediators would seem
TO indicate that they hope to get some
scheme for the settlement of Mexico's
internal difficulties under way before
they undertake any definite move in re-
gard to the adjustment of the acute
situation between the United States and
Huerta. This course was regarded nere
tonight as the logical one. II the
mediators are able to effect an under
standing among the factions in Mexico
and restore peace in that country they
will have gone a long way toward
solving the troubles between Huerta and
this Government.
Carranza is likely to prove a greater
obstacle To the carrying out Of this plan
than Huerta himself. The leader of the
tonstitutionalists has been making
rapid inroads recently upon the territory
Of the Mexican dictator and flushed
with victory probably viii balk at
entering into any conference with rep
resentatives of Huerta and other
factions in Mexico.
All that Carrsnza and Villa have
asked from this Government is a free
Inflow Of arms and ammunition across
the border and they have boosted that
within few months they will have
swept on VIGOROUSLY to Mexico clty.
Under these circumstances Carranza il
likely to resist stubborn,y any sueges-
tion which might involve a sacrifice of
the fruits of his labors
Should Villa stand formally behind
him the situation might be hopeless hut
the military leader Of the Constitution.
alists has given evidence recently of n
very liberal spirit toward the United
states. and there are strong hopes that
he may prevail over the nominal head
of the Constitutionalist party.
Although confirmation of the sIgges-
ton that mediation would be opposed by
Carranza was not possible In Washing
ton to-day the rumor was persistent
that he would raise clearly defined
objection.
Agents Of the Constitutionalists here
SAID at midnight tonight that no ans

been received. They expressed the view,
however, that the whole scheme of
mediation would be opposed by Car

and Of utility. They expect definition

FEAR CARRANZA WILL BE
STUMBLING BLOCK OF PLAN
No Reply Has Been Received at Washington From
Revolt Leader Regarding Original
Mediation Plan

WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The next
move in the mediation proceedings prob
ably will be "a suggestion by the Govern
ments of Chile, Argentina and Brazil
designed to end internal strife in
Mexico.
1t was learned tonight that the rep
resentatives of the three South Ameri-
can republics already have formulated
a tentative draft of a proposal Of this
character to be sent to all factions in
Mexico.
AS understood here tonight the plan
contemplates an invitation to Huerta,
Carranza and possibly Zapata to desig-
nate representatives who may confer in
regard to ways and means Of bringing
an end to the strife and dissension
among MeXicans which have torn the
republic from one end TO the other for
the last two or three years and which
have now threatened to plunge the
country into a war with the United
States. As a necessary corollary to such
conferences a temporary suspension OF
all hostilities between the Mexican
factions will be suggested.
In formulating such IA plan the South
American diplomats show clearly that
their intention in opening the present
negotiations goes beyond the mere set
tiement of the acute situation between
JIuerta and the United States; that
they are in fact hopeful of being able
20 bring out OF the present negotiations
results which will remove the funda-
mental cause OF irritation between this
Government and Mexico and which will
restore peace and order in the southern
republic.
Wilson Suggested same Move.
A move Of this character by the rep
resentatives Of Chile, Brazil and Ar
rentina Is regarded here as more likely
Of success than any plan that has been
suggested thus far. BY taking the mi
sativc themselves the mediators will
avoid the irritation which would GER
rainiy be caused by the participation Of
the United States Government itself in
a amy such suggestion.
" was only six months or 30 ago
when President Wilson himself made
tl'h "A proposal to Huerta. When he
sent John Lind to Mexico one Of the
suggestions or demands was that
iiuerta should enter into an agreement
with all Other factions in Mexico for
a suspension OF hostilities pending a
general constitutional election. The
Wilson proposals. however. were tied
70 others, which were particularly Of
iensive to Huerta, and the dictator re-
l"cred all OF them with a considerable
snow pf recruitment

liuerta was prepared to ask that the
Washington representatives OF France
Germany and England be added Ia the
rec representatives of the South
american republics upon any board of
Wediation that should be organized. It
