O'Shaughnessy Offered
Names of Mexicans to
Take Charge of Affairs
BY Associated Press

Vera Cruz, May 5.-Just before Nell
son 'Shaughnessy. American charge
daffaires, left the Mexican capital he
informed officials here, 1t Is under
stood, that he had submitted to Wash
ington, under the direction Of Presi-
dent Wilson, list of names of promi-
nent MeXicans who might act as a
council of notables to take charge OF
the affairs of the government in case
Of the downfall or the abdication OF
Provisional President Huerta. The
men suggested are said to have been
named owing to their strict neutrality
during the internal strife of the last
three years and their lack of interest
in the conflicting factions.
It is understood that the sentiment
of Carranza and other leaders is in
favor of acceptability of the men as
temporary heads to keep order during
the transition period which Is expected
and later to conduct the elections
1t is said that Mr.. O'Shaughnessy
was instructed scrupulously to avoid
suggesting men who might have been
connected with the various factions
and to pick those whom Carranza
might be expected to find agreeable.
Mr.. O'Shaughnessy' sudden de-
parture from the capital is said to
have brought the negotiations to a
halt after he had forwarded the names
to Washington, although 1t Is consid-
cred likely here that the Brazilian
minister or some other foreign diplo-
mat working to bring about peace
may be continuing the scheme.

Change in Situation in

Unexpected, Many Assert
Bv Associated Press

Washington, May 5.-With the vir-
tual elimination of the constitutional
lists from proceedings aimed at gen.
eral settlement of Mexico's ills. the
South American envoys to-day began
plans to compose differences between
Huerta and the United States govern
ment that led to the seizure of Vera
Cruz. Carranza's elimination, at least
for the present, was determined upon
by the three mediators. They inform
ed him that because of his refusal to
agree to a truce with Huerta they can
celled their proposal that he name a
representative to cooperate in medi-
alton negotiations. Relations with the
rebel chief were not arbitrarily broken
off. The mediators left open to him
the opportunity to enter the proceed
ings whenever he was ready to fix an
armistice.
While the abrupt turn in the diplo-
matte drama led many observers to
believe that all present chance of gen.
eral mediation was lost, yet sugges-
tions were heard that Carranza might
change his mind after his troops were

Mediators' Note to Rebel
Leader Is Made Public

Washington, D. c.. May 5.-The text
of the Mexican mediators' telegram to
General Carranza eliminating him
from the mediation proceedings, which
became known to-day, disclosed for the
first time that the mediators held that
"all the difficulties which contributed
toward the present situation in Mexico
bear either directly or indirectly on
the solution of the pending conflict be-
tween Mexico and the United States"
The text of the note from the medi-
ating envoys sent yesterday to Gen
eral Carranza was as follows:
I'VE have received your telegram in
which you are kind enough to tell us
that you deem it inconvenient for the
Constitutionalist cause to suspend hos
tilities against General Huerta on the
ground that such suspension would
only accrue to the benefit of Huerta
and in which you declare that the
international conflict between Mexico
and the United States for whose solu-
ton you accepted our good offices is
independent of the internal strife in
that country.
I'VE consider this unexpected state
ment as inconsistent with the idea
which caused us to offer our good
offices. We think, indeed, that all the
difficulties which have contributed
toward the present situation in Mexico
bear either directly or indirectly on
the solution of the pending conflict be-
tween Mexico and the United States.
Consequently we think that these diff
culies should be made the subject of
consideration in the negotiations for
whose successful conduct we have
deemed it Indispensable to suspend
hostilities
Should you not deem it SO, we
would be compelled in that case to
withdraw as inopportune our invi.
tation for the appointment of repre-
sentatives of the Constitutionalists in
such negotiations.
I'VE beg to assure YOU of our high
est consideration"

Federals while Huerta remained al
their head.
Position PrecariOus

Huerta's position was declared to be
increasingly precarious. Zapata, the
southern rebel according to reports in
Vera Cruz. threatened to attack the
federal capital to-day. Velasco. one
of Huerta's chiefs In operations around
Torreon, was said to have declared
he never would direct another battle
against the Constituencies. He was
dissatisfied with the support Huerta
accorded him in battles against the
Carranza invasion. Plots in the army
against Huerta were growing, it was
asserted. In many quarters a sudden
change in the situation in Mexico City
would not be unexpected. How far
such a development would affect the
mediators' program for general settle
ment was q topic Of discussion by OBJ
servers of the Mexican situation.
The influx of Americans into Mex
leo City from outlying districts con-
tinued to-day, and arrangements for
their transportation to east coast ports
were hurried. Appeals of isolated
groups of Americans for military es-
corts were received by Sir Lionel Car
den, the British minister in Mexico
City, who was cooperating with the
Brazilian minister for their relief.

LACK OF INTEREST IN BIBLE
Special to The Telcgyabh

Philadelphia, May 5.--Dr. Martin G.

delivered an address in Simpson Me-

above Cambria street, Sunday after
noon, in which he urged young men
to take more interest in church work
and to spend more time in reading and
trying to interpret the Bible cor
rectly.
DIR. Brumbaugh deplored the great
lack of interest in Gods Book" mani
tested by young men, and also the ap-
parently lukewarm interest of those
who profess to believe in its teachings.
He said: Not only should the Bible
be read to save oneself but to learn
how to save others. A person who has
not the zeal and the courage to save
Others now has not the zeal to save
himself on the judgment day."
