Washington, June I1.-Washington administration officials would not com- ment tonight on the south American mediators' refusal to wait longer for General Carranza to answer their com muntcation suggesting that constitu- tionnIist representatives be sent to participate in the Mexican peace con- ference at Niagara Falls.
 Publication by the mediators of ex- changes between them and General Car ranza's agerts and the report that the South American envoys regarded further waiting as beneath their dignity were taken here to mean that the door to me'liation Is closed on the constitutional- isls. There were some. however, who be- lieved that, if the Huerta and United States representatives agreed on peace terms. the mediation conference might recess while the American government sought to bring about an agreement with the constituencies.
 While the mediators were determining to close the door of the conference to (dTldnZd, ITeSiuenl NllSDn ana otcft- tary of State Bryan held a protracted conference in the White House executive offices.

As soon as he reached his office, MT. Bryan was called to the long distance telephone ana informed him of the action of ,he nlcdialors.
 Nothing to Say

 The fact that General Carranza had for warded no answer 10 the latest communi- cation from the mediators had been re- garded in some quarters here for several days past as an indication that he did not intend to participate in mediation which would require a cessation of hostilities against Huerta. It was reported off cials of the Washington government had been well aware of this for some time and so informed the conferees at Niagara Falls. It was upon this information, some believed, that the reported suggestions were made O. continuing the mediation in its present form.

Refuse to Take Part

Nashville bankers refused to enter the convention and their action called forth severe criticism at the hands of c. A. Lyerly and other delegates. T. R. Pres ton, president of the Hamilton National bank of this city, announced that he was not a candidate for dictatorship The urging of MT. Preston as a candidate was mainly the cause of the refusal of the Nashville people to participate in the eon- vention.
 A steering committe was named to ar- range details of the meeting in Montgom- cry. The report of the committee, signed by delegates from each of the six states composing the district. was adopted as fol- Jews:
 Your committee appointed for the pur- pose begs to make the following recom- mendations:
 First. that the member banks of the sixth district immediately make such nom- nations as the directors of the said mem- Der banks may see fit.
 Second after such nominations have been certified to the member banks by the organization committee that a meeting of the electors of the sixth district be called in Montgomery at such time as the Mont gomery Clearing House may deem advis- able, and that five days notice shall be given to the member banks.
 "Third, that 1t is the sense of this con venton that the electors of the sixth dis trict cast their ballots for a director of Class A and Class B in their respective groups in accordance with law, but that the section. or appointment, be made with a view of giving direct representation on the board to each state in the sixth dis

The mine production of recoverable spelter was about 9.lOO,O0O pounds. valued at 5lO,O00$, which was an in- crease of about $40, ,0O0 pounds, or near ly per cent, over the production of 1912. On account of the lower price paid for the metal, the total value de- creased more than 9O.OOO$. The Col conda mine, n Mohave county, former ly the largest producer. was making shipments of zinc ore and concentrates only part of the year, and therefore had greatly decreased output. Much ore was, however, shipped from the San Xavier mine in Pima county and much conce nitrate was made from Mo- have county ores miIled at Needles.

EntangIement of Borax
 Kings Holdings Sought,

A San Francisco dispatch says:-F. M. ("Borax") Smith, one of the amaz- ing numb Der of multi-millionalres pro duced through the material riches of the Far West, had his troubled finan- cial affairs, capitalized aG 100000, ,0O0S, taken out of his weary hands by men who will try to untangle them. A syndicate of British and American capitalists, represented by George c. Moore of Detroit and B. Fitzgerald of London, agreed to take over the Unit ed Properties Company, which really was Smith, and see what they can do with it. Upon their success depends Smiths possible rehabilitation. All the creditors feel secure.
 Overwhelmed by more money than he could count, accruing to him from rich borax deposits which he develop ed, and from which he got his nick nams, Smith started to promote big enterprises. He built a magnificent traction system among the cities across the bay from San Francisco and developed great tracks of land fnanc- ed light and power companies and Me- vada mines.
 He kept the management of all the concerns mostly in his head and finally he did not know any more than any one else whether he was worth any money or not.
 Two factions undertook his rehabil. tation and today's action is regarded as triumph for one of them. Smith may be wealthy again, his creditors say. They will invest about l5, 100000 to straighten things out.
 Contracts for the complete financing of all the companies involved were signed today between Moore, who, with English capitalists, will furnish about 6. .0O0. .O00$ at once, and the Unit ed Properties trustees, the Smith ad. visory committee, William T. Tevis. R. G. Hanford and the Hanford h. vestment Company.
 The total amount to be furnished in the purchase of stock, payments of notes. purchase of bonds and develop ment Tn the near future is estimated at from Is, ,0)0,0O)S to 2J,0J0,0 ,0JJS.
 Moore buys at a valuation of POS share the 38,O00 preferred shares of the traction ompanies which are held by the United Properties trustees and 25, 900 of the 65,000 shares held by the Smith advisory committee and the Mercantile Trust Company for the creditors, who had received this se- curity as collateral on loans made to Smith.
 Smith emerges from the unmerging process as an outsider, so far as con cerns part in directing the destinies of the properties. If the hope of the new directors to rehabilitate the vari- ous corporate "cousins" of the trac. tion company is gratitied he will it is said, likely come out with a fortune.
