(By Associated Press.)
Washington^ June 0.- Unofficial re
ports were eqrrent In Washington to
day that General Carranza, chief of
the Constitutional isl forces In Mexi
co, was willang to participate in the

sidered should concern only affairs
developed b? the American occupa
tion of Vera-Cruz. Carranzn's answer
to the communication of the medi
ators was uxpeted to he forwarded
from SalttlitKuy Monday.
Should Carranza":; position coin
cide with t?u)t outlined here, the gen
eral opinion was that mediation ne
gotiations would proceed and that a
way would bu found for Constitution
alists delegates to participate in the
negotiuions. ).
Department; heads tonight seemed
confident that General Huerta would
not attempt to blockade the port of
Tampico against the delivery of the
Cuban steamer'Antillu of arms for the
Constitutionalists. The American
state department, it was pointed out.
was fully sa?i?ed of its rights to pre
vent a blockage*. It also was made
known that a* conclusion had been
reached that this government had no
authority to intervene in the delivery
of ammunition in the delivery of am
munition st, Tampico.
Secretary..Bryan today conferred
with the provident- and; .waa accompa
nied- by John-, H. siiitmahy the^Ame?r
c?n consul general, who* sb' narrowly
escaped death at the hands of Mexican
Federals at Saltillo. The president
directed Mr. Sillfmu.ii to make a writ
ton report of hie experiences and en
joined him to keep silence in the
meantime as to the treatment at the
hands of the Mexicans.
No official comment could he heard
today on London publications that Sir
Edward Gray warned Secretary Bry
an of the Intention of the British lo
obtain reparation for the killing of the
British subject Benton by the Con
stitutionalists.
THE MEDIATORS
ARE HOPEFUL
Say That They Expect An Answer
From Carranza by Tuesday
Huerta Is Tamed
(By Associated Press.)
Niagara Falls, Ont., June fi.-"For
some time now it lins been evident that
there are no serious obstacles to u
settlement which would win for the
Washington government all that was
asked of Huerta. The plan virtually
agre.-d upon for Huerta's elimination
and the setting up of a new govern
ment with both the cient?ficos and con
stitutionalists equally represented, and
with a neutral holding the rank of
president.
Should the constitutionalists decline
to participate it Is thought the United
States still would have to carry out
its part of the bargain. In that event
lt js not impossible that this country
may And herself the ally of the present
Mexico government. The situation ts
believed to be the cause of a great deal
of embarrassment to the Washington
administration.
Some comfort is being derived here
from the fact that General Carranza
has placed General Natera at the head
of the army nearest Mexico City.
Should lt be necessary for an Ameri
can force to proceed from Vera Cruz
to the Mexican capital to aid in estab
lishing a provisional government and
such a course ls a possibility tho Am
ericans would rather have General Na
tera at the head ot the approaching
constitutionalist army than General
Villa.
Mediators and American delegates
say an answer to the latest note to
General Carranza probably will be re.
celved by. Tuesday. \

El. Paso. Tex., June 6.-The com

bodies no specific request that General
Carranza discuss either Internal or In
ternational questions, nor does lt even
specify that an armistice between the
revolutionists and the Huerta troops
must be established according to the
version given here.

State To Be Represented al
Editor Tlic Intelligencer:
Columbia, .lune fi. Within twelve
months, probably during thc year
l!?N. thc Panama Canal will have
been completed and opened to the
shipping ol the world, lt is within tho
bounds of conservatism to say that
tile building of this canal ls the most
important engineering achievement, ns
its opening will be one ol the most
netallie events, ip. the history of the
world. Other great engineering works
and developments have affected trade
and economic conditions within .1 re
stricted sphere, but this one will ex
pand its influences into tin- remotest
corners of the earth. As a <. onse
(|tience of changing routes of ocean
travel, new migrations of men will
take place, new ureas of productivity
will develop, new cosmopoli' i i oitms
will arise, and n<*w linanciisl i nd trade
connections will be established.
Much as thc opening ; .' the ?Hnal

to the nation which luis turned Mie pro
ject of a hundred years into un accom
plished fact. I'?cau8c of the profound
influence it must have upon fmornS
Iional commerce by shortening trade
routes and quickening ocean trafile,
it seems manifest that it will signltfy
more for our Southern states than for
any o*her region. Thopo who are fa
miliar with the processes and devel
opment of commerce anticipate o.ontl
dently that the canal will become im
mediately a tremendous factor in the
stimulation .if our trude with the
world, and naturally the effects of
such stimulation will extend through
every avenue of busbies sand industry,
