AS political leaders gathered for
the second days sessions of the Re-
publican and Progressive National
Conventions it became more and
more apparent that there would be
two tickets in the field Victor Muir
dock chairman of the Progressive Ma
tional Committee, summed up the
whole situation when he said to-
day:
We'll, we left the door open, and
the Republicans don't seem to be com
ing in"
That was the Progressive leaders
reply to inquiries as to whether there
remained any prospect for harmony
and whether there was likely to be
appointed to-day conference commit
tees representing both parties to re-
Ceive and pass upon peace suggestions.
Republican leaders too, discounted
the success of the peace talk, saying
that action had been delayed for so
Ions that a majority of the Republi-
can delegates already have decided to
proceed without regard for any third
party, and nominate Justice Hughes,
to whom the most support has been
gathered
VIII Not Accept Now
There are some among the Pro-
eressives and among Roosevelt Re-
publicans as well, who still believe
that the Colonel himself coud have
the day if he would come to Chicago.
Representative Gardner of Massa-
Chusetts, who was defeated for Re-
publican delegate-at-large FIR o m
Massachusetts on a Roosevelt ticket,
pleaded with Progressive leaders to
bring Colonel Roosevelt on without
delay. Word came from Oyster Bay,
however, that Colonel Roosevelt had
received the telegram from Republican
Nation Committeeman Jackson, of
Maryland, sent yesterday urging him
10 come here in the interest of har-
Inony. While the Colonel announced
il was not his present intention to
accept the invitation. he would make
public his reply later and he did not

May Arbitrate Differences
Between u. S. and Mexico
By Associated Press

Washington, June s. Arbitration
of differences between the United
States and Mexico through an inter-
national commission to-day became a
possibility.
Diplomats, particularly those Of
Central and South American republics,
were much interested in information
that administration officials are con-
sGering seriously proposing such a
course to General Carranza. If they
definitely decide to suggest this. il
would be sent as the United States
answer to Carranza's last note. Ac-
ceptance would then depend on the
de facto government.
Under the treaty of 1S4S between
the United States and Mexico the
presidents of the two nations might
appoint an equal number of commits
soners to whom could be submitted
all the vexatious questions arising out
of relations between the two coun-
tries the past few years.
