Americans Insist That
Demands Be Accepted
By Associated Press

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 19.-Just
before the American delegates were
notified that there would be no con-
ference to-day they were in commune
cation with the Washington govern
ment by telephone. 1t is understood
that they received instructions to stand
by their attitude as outlined In the
statement of last night and to insist
on an acceptance of the American
plan.
In some quarters the attitude Of the
Washington government was described
as virtually an ultimatum, the accept
ance of which by the Mexican dele
CATION would be the sole condition on
which mediation will be continued.
In this connection attention was di-
rected In American quarters to the
phraseology of the concluding para
graph of last nights statement. which
was taken literally from Justice La
mars memorandum to Emilio Rabasa.
The paragraph said, in part:
1.-THE United States Is a party to the
mediation in the hope that it might
lead to peace, and that the peace will
lead to prosperity. The plan which
the American representatives propose,
AND ON WHICH WE MUST INSIST.
has been formulated solely with that
end in view"
The insistence referred to in the
American memorandum was taken to
mean that at to-morrow's conference
the United States would reiterate it's
purpose of accepting only a Consti-
tutionalist and that unless the Huerta
delegates accepted, mediation would
come to end.
But for the presence of American
troops at Vera Cruz. 1t is believed. the

Bv Associated pysss

Washington, June 10. - With the
outcome of mediation hanging in the
balance, Washington to-day looked to
Niagara Falls for results of the next
conference among the Huerta and
American delegates and the three en-
voys which it was believed, would
indicate whether Mexico's ills could
be settled through diplomacy.
The statement of the American
delegates, outlining their reply to the
Huerta missions criticism of the at
titude of the United States was wide
ly discussed here. The statement gen.
orally was interpreted as a conclusive
showing of the Administrations aims
in the mediation negotiations. That
part of the note outlining the Ameri-
can governments policy in the search
for a provisional president for the
troubled republic was confirmatory of
previous statements. 1t read:
The effort therefore should be not
to find neutral but one whose atti-
tude on the controlling issues would
make him acceptable to the Constitu-
tionalists, while his character, stand
ing and conduct would make him ac-
ceptable to the other part. Such a
man, and only such a man, can rea-
sonably be expected to have the con-
fidence and respect of the entire coun-
try"
