 Washington, June 12.--It was of- ficially announced in Washington to- day that the A. E. C. mediators and the American and Huerta delegates had agreed on the transfer of the government from Huerta but that "the mode of tra1sferance' was still under discussion.
 It was learned that two modes of transference are being considered by the mesliators: First. the constitu- tional node; second. the arbitrary mode.
 The constitutional mode is the one by which. under the constitution of Mexico. Huerta shall abdicate in fav- or of the minister of foreign affairs. The arbitrary mode is that by which the three parties to the conference at Niagara shall designate a secretary of foreign affairs, who shall be &C., cepted by Huerta.
 In the constitutional method the man selected by Huerta must and will be agreed upon in advance by the three parties at Niagara.
 Not Recognizing Huerta.
 1t was pointed out today that both of these methods imply the non-rec- ognitioa of Huerta and that the original source of appointment would be the mediatorial powers. It was definitely stated that until there is an absolute agreement by protocol at Niagara signed by the Huerta pleni- potentiaries, remitti2g to power of appointment of the conference there will be no discussion of persons to fill the positions of the proposed pro- visional government.
 The state department has sent George c. Caruthers to Saltillo to
 
 this mission is to induce General Car ranza to abide by the protocol at Niagara, and there is no question that he will be assured he is to be the beneficiary of the performance. Carranza. it is we'll understood. has proclaimed for the house tops that he will agree to nothing in which Huerta appears.
 Carranxa Names Delegates. In the note from the constitutional ist 1u1ta here to Niagara Falls early this morning, General Carranza named these three men to act as his representatives at the mediation con- ference: Fernando I. Calderson, Louis Cabrera and Jose Vasconcelos. The note which was drawn by Gen. ers. Carranza himself in Saltillo, and merely relayed here to be placed in the mail. does not touch in any way on the question Of an armistice for the establishment of a provisional government. The local constitution alist iunta explained General Car ranza's position in making no refer ance to the armistice condition as laid down by the mediators by stating that it is not within the province of the mediators to exact any entrance requirements of the invbited parti- cipants to the conference and for that reason Carranza disregarded this portion of the communication as not conso1ant with their official posi- tions. The three representatives will not be sent immediately to Niagara, for the constitutionalists desire, they ! say. to give the mediators further o2- Dortunity to withdraw from their role of arbitrators and allow them in the true role of mediators. Tassure Carranza that his representatives will be welcome
 The mediators have said they will
 receive representatives of General
 Carranza to hear their arguments,
 hut that they cannot give them form
