ceiling through which the electric
light streamed. Various social games
were played, the evenings festivities
winding up by dancing, the music be-

Need for Haste.
lBy John Edwin Nevin. United Press
STAT Correspondent
WASHINGTON May 2s.-That med
iation will have settled the Mexican
problem before Huerta will ba In po-
sition to use the arms and ammuni-
ton landed at Puerto Mexico. was
the position taken at the white house
today. Secretary Bryan conferred
with President Wilson three times
during three hours. Denial was made
That the mediation conference had
reached che stage where tentative
protocol had already been arranged
THE situation 10 now very en-
couragfng," was the way Secretary
Tumulty put 1t. But to say that q
protocol had already bsen drawn. Il
very premature. Tho doubtful ground
II being cut down and We are hopeful
that definite action will soon be In
81 ght."
On authority Of Secretary Bryan 1t
can be stated that the situation In
yolvins the constitutionalis.s Will be
cleared up within twenty-four hours.
BY that time Carranza and his fol-
lowers wfl nave decided definitely
whether they will participate In the
mediation conferences or agree mere
" to abide by the results. providing
certain stipuIations already made to
Bryan are met While the stipulations
are carefully guarded, 1t is said by OF
ficials who are In position to know,
that they are the names OF men whose
temporary administration OF Mexican
affairs would be satisfactory to the
rebels. The element Of time Is now
entering largely into the Mexican sit
uation. Unless a protocol can %
agreed upon and signed within the
next week, it is extremely likely The
Niagara Falls parleys will come to
sudden end. Officials here believe
this. The knowledge that all parties
! concerned at Niagara Falls realize
the great necessity for haste adds to
the hopefulness Of the official FEELING
here. It is because Of this thai the
landing Of arms and ammunitfon-ad'
mittedly the largest cargo ever secur'
ed by Huerta-at Puerto Mexico ie
received with equanimity by oncials
| When Secretary Bryan was asked
at the white house regarding the land
ing of arms, he at frs. denied al
knowledge of the matter. His atten'
ton was called to the fact that his
chief advisor, Counsellor Lansing
had made public the fact that the
landing had actually taken place
Bryan finally admitted that the do
partment was getting Information
But he insisted that the delicate ma
ture Of the entire situation made
secrecy imperative at this particular
juncture.
The secretary professed to have nc
knowledge whatever Of any new rev
olut,onary movement in northern
Mexico. Il read such movement had
taken place. ne said, but I am In
ciined to doubt 1t. And anyhow, mat
tiers OF that kind are very often exas
