MEXICAN ENVOY REPORTS

Alberto J. PAM Returns From Mexico
With News That While First Chief
Did Not Sign Document Il May 30
Ratified Later.
Philadelphia, Dec. 19.-Indications
at the close of the morning session
of the Mexican-American commission
were that General Carranza was not
disposed to close the door against
an agreement with the American rep.
resentatives who have been trying
for more than three months to solve
questions at issue between Mexico
and the United States.
When the commission reconvened
after three weeks recess Alberto
]. Pani reported the results Of his
visit to Queretaro. The report was
received by the Americans without
comment.
An adjournment until later in the
day was taken, whom 1t is expected
the details Of his written message
from Mexico will be discussed.
The exact character of his report
was not revealed. but 1t was learned
that while Carranza had not signed
the protocol drafted at Atlantic City
this was not necessarily to be taken
as an indication that 1t would not be
ratified later. the signature perhaps
being that OF Ambassador Designate
Arredondo. who is qualified and au
thorized to sign such document.
