 NIAGARA FALLS. June 1.-Ail nartics to the mediation announced to- night substantial agreement has been reached with regard to the transfer ol authority in Mexico City. The exact machinery of the transfer has not yet been devised, but the point settled mainly is that it will not be through the appointment by Huerta of his sue cessor under the guise of munster :" foreign affairs or in any other way. To this position the United States me diators have steadily adhered, assert ing it is impossible from the stand point of constitutional successes, De- cause of the attitude of the Amerlcan government refusing to recognize Hu- erta or validate his acts.
 Ii is authoritatively learned the me- diators. impatient at the delay in re- ceiving Carranza's answer, now con slider correspondence with him at the end The agreement over the methco of choosing a provisional president came through the conciliatory spirit displayed by the Mexican delegation. Matters reached q crisis when the Americans motored across the inter- national bridge at sundown for what they believed to be the final confer ence and the end of mediation.
 As the Americans began their dis cussion with the mediators, the latter contended again that the method of transfer must not be construed as a recognition of Hperta, but the Amer jeans reiterated that the constitution alists never accepted such method - and the United States could not yield consistently with it's own policy. Fin ally Luis Elguero, one of the Mexican delegates, entered the conference room mise was noticeable.
 Observing it the Americans suggest ed that the other Mexicans come into the conference and Emilio Rabasa and Augustin Rodriguez joined the group. It was not a formal conference, but an impromptu talk and in a surprisingly brief time the Americans found they had made more headway with the Mexicans direct than they had previ-
  tors.
 The Mexican delegates appreciated the difficulties as expressed by the Americans and although anxious . follow the constitutional form, said they would not frustrate the proceed ings on technicality and yielded. Ac- cordingly the first clause of the medi- ators' plan respecting the method oi transfer was omitted. A substitute process has not been agreed to and is to be left to future conferences.
 Frederick w. Lehman told the cor respondents of the progress made and Justice Lamar dictated the following
 T was authorized by the mediators to say that we have substantially agreed on the first plank as to the method of the transfer of authority tf the new provisional government"
 Names for provisional president wer. not mentioned, but it is expected at to- morow's conference, q beginning vii be made in this direction.
 The Huerta delegates are anxiou. that man identified hitherto with n political faction be chosen. The Amer jeans say the individual selected should be from the ranks of the constitution alists so that they would feel sufficien confidence in him to day down theil arms. There is every reason to be lieve that eventually the Huerta dele gates will agree to the choice of aI ont and out constitutionalist.
 One of the individuals being talkei of informally is General Natera, com mander of the central division of tn constitutionalist army.
 Luis Cabrara, confidential advisor o General CarranZa is another who i being favorably considered. He mac good impression on the Washington authorities when he argued with tn officials of the government on tn conStitutionalist cause
