Expert Discussion by En-

Difficulties Which Lie in

LONDON. Sept There is great
speculation here as to when the Ger

fight. Practically, everyone admits
that it will come out but no one can
fix the date, even approximately The
naval expert of the Morning Post
says:
The greater probability is that every
dav of suspended action in the North

the lesser probability, that Germany
may choose to postpone any large

If the Kaiser sent his naval squad

Washington. June 16.-Officials OF
the Washington government had no
hesitancy in admitting there was a
crisis in the Mexican mediation con
ference at Niagara Falls over the Sc
lection Of men to represent the pro-
posed provisional government to sue
ceed the Huerta regime. While ad-
mitting the crisis, administration off
cials seemed confident that conditions
presented would be met and that hope
for peace in Mexico was by no means
abandoned. Word came from Niagara
Falls that the South American medi-
ators had replied to the recent note
from General CarranZa, chief of the
Mexican constitutionalists, stating
that his offer to send delegates to the
peace conference would be accepted
only on the condition that he agree to
cease hootilities against the Huerta
government.
That Carranza would not consent to
such a condition has been repeatedly
asserted by him. This development,
therefore, caused no change in the
diplomatic situation in so far as the
United States was concerned.
It was stated in official quarters
that the United States had been pro-
ceeding in its dealings with the medi-
ators at Niagara Falls on the basis
that there could be no solution of the
Mexican problem unless the warning
factions there could be brought to
terms.
Developments in the. Mexican inter-
nal conflict during the last few
months, it was pointed out, made it
apparent that the Huerta government
could not survive, irrespective of medi-
alton, and that there could be no pro-
visional government worthy Of the
name which did not recognize the rev.
olutionists.
With this position as a basis. it has
been revealed the Washington govern
ment suggested through its represent
atives at Niagara Falls, the names of
several men for provisional President
of Mexico who would be acceptable to
the revolutionary. forces of the repub-
lie.
Among these was Pedro Lascurain.
who was member Of the Madero
Cabinet. The representatives of Gen.
eral Huerta at the peace conference
have not accepted thus far any of
these men and have proposed in turn
men who have not been identified
with the constitutionalist movement.
These names have not been accept
able to the United States SO far as
can be learned in Washington.
While this situation would seem to
precipitate a deadlock, it was re-
ported here that the Huerta delegates
were prepared to suggest the name OF
a man as a compromise candidate for
the provisional presidency and that,
in any event, they would not take the
initiative in breaking off peace nego-
tiations.
According to this report, the man
whom the Mexican delegates have in
reserve to suggest is Gen. Fernando
Gonzales, who has not been identified
with the Huerta regime. He was
prominent during the administration
of former President Diaz but has not
since been active in Mexican poll
tics.
