NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. June 2l.-The
first full conference Of the Mexican and
American delegates and the three South
American mediatorr in more than a week
will take place tomorrow morning at
IL 80. At this conference DR.. Naon. the
Argentine Minister, will explain to the
delegates the new suggestions which IN
his mind will justify them in continuing
their negotiations He will explain why
he believes ther~ (. more ground for hope
OF "a successful outcome OF the mediation
conference ct the present time than there
appeared to be before his trip to WASH
ington.
Absolutely Lo information was OBJ
tairable here tonight regarding the new
plan. II could hardly he expected that
Dr. Naon would reveal any part OF IL
before placing IL before those attending
the mediation conference. but there IL
good reason to believe that 1t will not be
made public even sfser IL has been dis
cussed by the Mexican and American
delegates. From first hand Information
gathered here tonight II appears TO be
certain that a new policy OF absolute
silence will bs followed hereafter by ms,ll-
atorr and delegates alike.

No further official statements will be
forthcoming from either side until some
tangible step has been taken or some
decisive agreement arrived at
The report printed In THE SUS this
morning to tho effect that DIR. Naon's
plan Is to permit tho constitut!onal!sts
to come 10 the mediation conference and
discuss the international phases of the
Mexican problem aroused much Interest
on all sides here. This move. II In gen.
orally conceded, would be well advised
step on the par of the mediators. ipas-
much az II would be very difficult
matter TO determine just where TO draw
the line between the international and
internal affairs OF Mexico The inter
national phases OF the problem are no
intimately related to the internal affairs
OF the republic that It would hardly be
possible to discuss the first questions
without delving deeply into the second.
Although many mere DelleVe that the
medlators are az determined as ever to
make the participation of Carranza con-
ditional on the declaration OF an armlstice,
others IN the immediate encourage of the
three South American diplomats believe
that a way out Of this difficulty may
easily be found. They express the belief
that President Wilson has explained TO
DR.. Naon that insis,ence on this point
would he futile. inasmuch az recent events
in northern Mexico have furnished addl-
tional proof Of the already known fact
that Carranza's control over the Con-
stitutionalists H. by no means absolute
and that he could not compel the rebel
troops to rest on their arms should no
desire 20 take such a step, This IL he
l!eved to have been established beyond
doubt BY what has happened during
the past few days between villa and
Carranza.
Whatever else may be embodied In Or.
Na0n's plan is known to no one here
except the Argentine Minister himself and
his two colleagues. Ambass ador da CANA
OF Brazil and Minister Suarrz of Chile.
One thing IL certain. and that In that
the conference Is practically starting all
over again tomorrow morning. Tho me-
diators' original plan has been ~helvsa,
