PLANS OF UNITED STATES MUST BE ACCEPTED OR CONFERENCE
 WILL COME TO END.
STILL STICK ID CARRANZA
Split Between Villa and His Chief Has Had No Effect on the Policy of the Powers in Control at Wash ington.

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 19.-Jus- tice Lamar's memorandum to Emilio Rabasa. head of the Mexican media tion delegation. announcing that the United States must insist on the ac- ceptance of it's plan for the pacifca- tion of Mexico is an ultmatum.
 Unless the Huerta delegates yield, mediation will end tomorrow or Mon day.
 This is the firm determination Of the United States as conveyed to the mediators today.
 Ambassador Da Cana of Brazil and Minister Suarez of Chile asked the American delegation if their position had changed in view of the Carranza- Villa split and the reply was No"
 It was an informal talk but served to advise the mediators that the pub lshed statements of the American and Huerta delegates, with opposite views on the type of man to be se- lected for provisional president, de- fined clearly the unalterable attitude of the American government.
 Just what would pe the American policy if mediation fails or what dis position it would make of the Ameri- can troops at Vera Cruz is not known even to the American delegates. The Huerta commissioners say they do not know what course of action Gen eral Huerta may pursue.
 The mediators held no formal ses- sion today because Minister Naon of Argentina stopped iii Washington in stead of returning directly from uni versailles where he has been receiv- ing honorary degrees. Minister Naon is expected back early tomorrow and will confer first with. his colleagues, who are anxious to know whether his conferences with officials of the Washington government today de- veloped a new road toward solution of the problem confronting them. If it has not the various plans will be formally presented.
 Rejection by the Americans of the mediators' plan as well as that of fered by the Mexican delegates will be recorded as a matter of form, to- gether with disapproval by the Mexi- cans of the American plan
 Automatically that would adjourn the conferences, according to the rules of procedure adopted when they first convened. The mediators, how ever, still have some names to sug. gest for provisional president, but have little hope that an agreement could be reached.
 A report from Mexico City that General Huerta had decided to ap- point Pedro Lascurain as minister of foreign affairs may change the entire aspect of things if it develops that Mir. Lascurain is to be made provi- sional president, irrespective of the mediation proceedings.
 MT. Rabasa, head of the Mexican delegation, said he thought it was improbable this would occur. The American delegates could give the mediators no information about it.
 Mir. Lascurain was minister of for egn affairs under Madero and at his over throw became provisional presi. dent, appointed Huerta to his cabinet and then relinquished the presidency to him. Many constitutionalists have explained that while the constitu- tional order would be restored if Mir. Lascurain became provisional presi- dent they opposed his elevation be- cause of his unresisting subserviency to Huerta's assumption of office.
