NIAGARA FALLS, Ontario. june
General Carranza and the Constr
tutionalists still held the centre Of
the mediation stage today. and. as a
result of the fiery statement issued by
the reebl leader in Durango it Was
believed certain he had brought mat
tiers nearer A crisis. BY reiterating IN
the strong terms his declaration ttai
it is not within the province of the
mediation conference TO deal with In
ternal affairs of Mexico and his posi-
tive declaration that he will not rec
ognize any provisional government
agreed upon here or submit to the
proposal that Huerta be a candidate
for president, he has again touched
the delicate point in the mediation
proceedings.
If the mediators were seeking
through Washington a clearer state-
ment from the Constitutionahsts as
TO their position. the statement OF
eneral Carranza is not expected TO
aid the administration in obtaining
representation for Carranzasistas.
The mediators regard the cofcreace
here as an invitationa laffair. They
invited CarranZa and he declined.
Nsow they have insisted the Constitu
tionalist chief cannot expect to force
his way in. eneral Rabasa, OF the
Mexican delegation, declared that hs
might issue a statement today he
said it would not deal with the Con-
stitutionalist issue. but declined e
state what il would cover. The Mex
I
waiting for some decision from abe
mediators as to the Carranzistas
Babasa declared he would not COM
municate with his government until
a decision had been reached, and for
the present the Mexicans were merely
waiting in the mediators.
The Mexican delegates have shown
| the greatest uneasiness in the delay
| in the mediation proceedings, but
| have not evidenced any opposition TO
| the Carranzistas. The chief desire Is
| that negotiations be expedited. The
sentiment today was that General
! Carranza's s unofficial statement had
| come at a most inopportune time
/ Should the efforts 10 reach an
7 agreement on the Constitutionalisf
! question fail, it is a question whether
negotiations here would be ended I'M

probably hang on to the last, as they
are anxious for a speedy sConstitu-
tfonalist" agreement that viii save
/ the face of Huerta. The mediators
/ may be expected to continue their ef-
forts until convinced a settlement Is

4 can and Mexican delegates. it was

I been received from General Huerts
I as 10 the terms of a settlement he

desired rebel representation in the
