PRESIDENT BACKS
CAUSE OF REBELS

Niagara Falls, Ont, June I-From
Developments today in the Mexican
mediation situation it was evident the
American delegates would champion
the cause of the constitutionalists UNI
I'll It had been determined whether the
Carranza, faction Will have personal
representation here during the con
tinuation of the negotiations.
John Il. Urquidi, General Carran-
za's special messenger, called on the
American delegation today and dis
cussed with Mr.. lehman, the consti-
tutionalists' attitude toward mediation.
The mediators themselves conferred
at some length In respect to the char
acter of answer to be made to General
communication. They were
inclined toward a mere acknowledge
ment, but the indications are that the
wish of the Washington government
Will prevail that full consideration be
given the constitutionalists. re so, the
negotiations will be prolonged.
The mediators had believed 1t would
be possible to frame a protocol deal
ing with the important phases Of the
controversy between the United States
and General Huerta and such OF the
internal questions that must be settled
here. which Genera Carranza would
approve. Then certain details would
have been left to more leisurely settle
ment after the return of the mediators
to washington. 1t is understood now
that the ENJOYS have yielded to argu-
ments from Washington that there
should be no adjournment OF the Mag
ara Falls meeting until disposition is
made of all questions before it. Stpuld
satisfactory arrangements b mad
whereby General Carranza may be
willing to send delegates on terms sat
isfactory to the mediators, it is pos
sible that the conferences might con-
tlnue for two or three weeks or more.

HITS AT MODELLING
OF GERMANS HERE
Maurice Leon Comments on
Editorial Discussion Of
Hague Conventions.
REPLY TO JAMES VI. BECK

Maurice Leon. an authority on in
ternatlonal law. commenting Yesterday on
the editorial discussion in THE SvH over
the rules of the Hague conventions. said
this country had cause TO look with con-
siderable apprehension on the extensive
mobilization of German reservists in New
York and elsewhere.
In statement MIR. Leon brings mp
some new points OF neutrality as apply
ing to German activity in the United
States in answer to the assertions OF
James NJ Beck. chief among which Is the
alleged violation OF Article ". or the
Hague treaty of 1907 In raising reservis's
in this country. The statement said IN
part:
article /. which Mr. Beck regards as
binding legally and when by others Is
resarded as binding morally on &c many
by reason OF her ratification Of that con-
| Vention provides that the territory OF
neutral Powers is inviolahle.
This is merely a rule OF international
deceucy. which as such Is binding any
way, and which Germany had left people
to believe was recognized by her when
she caused the convention in which Vt Is
| formulated to he ratified by her pleni-
! potentiaries.
"If Article l. Is no binding on her,
! what about Article w. The latter pro-
4 vision is to the effect that corps OF COM
/ batsnts cannot be formed nor recruiting
| agencies opened on ;he territory OF a neu-
! trial to assist belligererts.
Are We going to understand hat this
/ provision Of that convention il to be re-
/ garded as a dead letter? II not, We would
better watch carefully the mobilization OF
| German reservists here In New York and
In other centres where Germans are nu-
| merous
Another good reason FOR alertness on
our part is found in the fact which re-
! Gently has come to light that Germany n
her prepa rodness for the great war OF ag-
| gression which she has Inflicted upon
| Europe did not Overlook this nohiliza' ion
| for her purposes. not alone in military.
but also in civil capacities, Of Germans
aaturalizod abroad.
II refer to Article ky. Section . ~
