FORMAL REPLY IS MADE Settling of Such Questions by Medi ation or Even Arbitration De clared to Be Unacceptable , to Constitutionalists. Eli PASO, Tex.. June 21. General Carranza has forwarded his reply to the two notes of June 2 and 5 sent him by the mediation commissioners, at Niagara Falls, It was learned nere to night. According to reports his reply to the ABC mediators was sent to the constitutionalist headquarters at Wash ington to be forwarded to the Brazil Ian, Argentine, Chile and American Ambassadors at the Niagara confer ence. ' Carranza's note, it is understood,. re Iterated his willingness to participate In the conference, whose sole object he recognized to be the pacification of Mexico and whose good offices he ten tatively recognized. Local Discussion Futile. The futility of the discussion of Mex ican internal affairs, however, is point ed out. While thanking the mediators for their efforts, the "first chief made plain, according to word reaching here, that among the subjects he considered it impossible to discuss was the pro posed armistice, military movements of the rebels, the agrarian question and the designation of a provisional Presi dent of Mexico. Carranza said he believed that he only complied with his duty as first chief of the constitutionalist forces when he declared that a grave error had been committed in attempting to' solve such a Question of transcendental Importance to the Mexican people. It devolves on the rebels themselves, he held, to decide what is best for the Interests of their country. Definite Result Not Expected. The settling of such questions as the result of mediation, arbitration, or even Intervention, would be unaccept able to the Insurgents, he says, and he Is therefore convinced that the. con ference at Niagara Falls will be with out the definite result expected by the Interested parties and foreign nations. The feeling In Saltilio, where Car ranza has established his capital, ac cording to .word reaching this city, is that the first chief's reply his ended the diplomatic incident connected with the interchange of notes between the mediation commission and Carranza. j Tje lack of ponformity on Carranza's part with the request of the mediators does not necessarily preclude a further interchange of notes, but It Is not be lieved an attempt will be made to renew the correspondence. Villa's Recognition Urged. At the time of the breach between Generals Villa and Carranza there was an Interesting exchange of telegrams between Robert V. Pesquiera. Car ranza's agent, and Villa. Pesquiera in his message expressed regret over the differences which had arisen between the two leaders, and declard nothing could be more disastrous to the revolu tion and the country than such a split which had been the object of the ene mies of the constitutionalists. Declaring Villa's triumphs had brought him honor from all Mexicans, ha urged the General to again place himself at the service of the revolu tionary cause In the same quality that had made him an Idol of the people, and to do everything possible to bring about a solution of existing difficulties. Thla telegram was sent on June 17 and Villa's reply was received the following day. In this message Villa denied that any difference existed between himself and Carranza. and said he proposed to prevent such a crisis because of the needs of the country. Return of 1,000,000 Feaoa Sought. Efforts were made today by Carranza agents to secure the return to Juarez of national officials ejected by Villa's military agents from their offices and the return to the national treasury of fices at Juerar of the 1.000.000 pesos in constitutionalist paper confiscated by the troops. Roberto Pesquiera, rebel field agent, and Lazaro do la Garzo, Villa's agent, held a long conference today, at which this subject was dis cussed. The Carranza element expressed the belief that only by the reinstatement of Serapio Aguirre. the National Treas urer, and other of Carranza's ap pointees could the matter be adjusted satisfactorily, although those arrested were supposed to have received their liberty at Chihuahua. ; MAZATLAX ATTACK -WITHHELD Rebel Troop Surrounding Cities Or dered to Remain Inactive.
