Pan-American Conference Has Come
to an Understanding.

New York, Aug. 1.-THE United
States and the six Latin-American re-
publics which, as representative of
Central and South America, have join
ed with this country in an effort to
bring peace and order to Mexico,
have agreed upon a course of action
and have framed a note setting forth
what in their opinion should be done
to insure such a result.
This note framed at conference of

tries held at the Hotel Biltmore in
this city yesterday, is addressed to
the leaders of the Mexican factions.
1t contains a review of the situation
in Mexico, points at the havoc
wrought by continued warfare, and
appeals to the warning leaders in the
name of humanity and for their coun-
trys sake to put aside selfish pur-
poses and compose their differences

countries represented at the confer
ence in effecting a peaceful regime in
Mexico. Further the conferees
reached an agreement as to the form

ed by these seven representatives on
behalf of their Governments and will
be sent to all the leaders, civil and
military, in Mexico. No further con-
ference will be held until the situa-
ton becomes more definite If it is
decided to go on discussion of the
form of government for Mexico will
be resumed. Secrecy has been drawn

on. but 1t is said to contemplate an
election in Mexico supervised by the
