of the mediation plans successful con-
summation sa Is Huerta. In fact. 1t Is
believed to be Il bigger one.
So suspicious are the constitutional
lists of the mediation proposal tha.
they allude to 1t as trap" They
say they will not walk into 1t, As to
the talk of conference OF leaders OF
all factions under the auspices Of the
mediators. they insist they will not
participate I'M It.
Their reason is that they believe DE
La Barra and other astute cientificos
are furtherlng the mediation scheme in
the hope of robbing the constitutional
lists of the fruits OF their victories
I'VE will listen to these people when
we ride into Mexico City with our
troops" is the way some of the consti-
tutionalist leaders here put 1t.
Inaugurated Three Weeks Ago.
1t was pointed out today that Jose
Castellot Mexican senator. a cienti-
fico. had come here three weeks ago
and that he is today in close touch
with the mediators. This makes the
constitutionalists the more suspicious
that the mediation plan is OF cientlfico
origin and basically unfriendly to the
constitutionalists.
While official expressions today are
sanguine concerning the outcome of
mediation, 1t is well to bear in mind
that, not only are the constitutional
lists suspicious of what is back OF II
but this government is on Its guard
and has it's eyes open to any proceed
ure by the mediating nations which
may be adverse to It's interests or un-
friendly.
The administration, 1t was declared
had important information II
has not made public concerning the
growing weakness Of Huerta. This has
come through John Lind.
Military men are becoming impressed
with the belief the American troops
would dash to Mexico City In hurry
If given the chance. The federais seem
to be doing little to resist an advance.
General Mas troops seem to be with :
,drwan miles from Vera Cruz. This IS
taken here to indicate that Huerta is
keeping as many troops as he can IN
and about Mexico City.

REBELS ATTACK CUBAN BOAT.
Plan to Blockade Tampico to Cut or
Federal Supplies.

Washington, May 1.--Real Admiral
Mayo, at Tampico. reported to the
navy department last night that the
Ward line steamer Antilla. flying the
Cuban flag, was fred upon and held
up in the river there yesterday by
constitutionalists, but later steamed
into port under cover of fire upon the
rebels from the Mexican federal gun
boat Vera Cruz.
The helmsman of the Antilla was
wounded by the rebel fire and the
steamer anchored sending out wireless
IS. o. S." signals. Admiral Mayo
sent alongside a boat with his aide and
a medical officer from the flagship
Des Mones. Then officers of the for
eign men of war off The port, headed
by Captain Doughty Of the British
cruiser Hermoine. called on the con-
stitutionalst commanders for an ex-
PLANTATION of the incident.
The constitutionalist officers declared
that they proposed in future to prevent
any merchant vessels entering Tam
pco In order to keep supplies and
stores from the federals.
Soon after this conference Admiral
Mayos report said. the gunboat Vera
Cruz opened fire on the constitution
alists and the Antilla under cover OF
the shelling proceeded up the river
to the wi,arves. Shells from the Vera
Cruz set fire to two big oil lighters
at the Waters Pierce refinery pie:
and they were still blazing at last re-
port.
Naval officers here said no official
notice would be taken by Admiral Mayo
OF the Antilla incident.

.HuERTA AGREES TO TRUCE.
United States Will Accept Suggested
Arn,;stice 40 Matter Of Course.

Washington May General Huerta
last night accepted the proposal that
there would be no further hostilities
between the United States and Mexico
pending the efforts OF the ENJOYS oil
Argentina. Brazil and Chile to bring
about an amicable settlement OF the
difficulties between the countries.
This was announced late last night
by Secretary Bryan after he had been
In conference two hours with the three
South American diplomats at the Ar
rentina legation. At the same time
Mr., BRYAN said he already formally,
had notified the mediators that the
American government took Tor
granted that there would be no hostilt-
ties during the mediation proceedings
and had intended no further acts or
aggression while the conferences were
being held" So s3.s6 iii
these replies before thens the
envoys were prepared to so ahead
with their peace plans so far as the
United States and the Huerta gov
ernments are concerned. NO word mad
come from General CarranZa, however.
concerning a proposed arnistice be-
tween the constitutionalists and fed
erals in Mexico. On the rebel chter
answer depends largely the plans or
the mediators for undertaking peace
full settlement of the whole Mexican
problem, internal strife as well as the
differences between the United States
and the Huerta regime.
News from Chihuahua that General
Carranza and General Villa were push
ing ahead their southwark movement
and preparing for a general attack on
Tampico, threw damper on the hopes
for peace between the warning Mexi-
can factions.
