Informal discus- sions were to take place during the Journey between the border and To- ronto. Just how far they had pro- ceeded in thelr conferénces over ac- tual terms and details of many things considered necessary for the pacifica- tion of the southern republic was nov revealed in Washington, but the op- timistic attitude of the mediators ana the members of the opposing mis- sions wag reflected by officlals here. President Wilson and his cabinet members were decidedly hopeful.

Niagara Falls, Ont, May 27.—The mediation body, composed of the South American envoys and the Amer- jcan and Mexican delegates, suspend- ed their work here today to attend a garden party this afternoon in Tor- onto in honor of the governor-gen- eral of Canada, his royal highness, the Duke of Connaught, the Duchess and the Princess Patricia.

En- route they probably will have some informal discussion about the media- tlon problem. No regular confer- ences were contemplated. All Highly Optimistic. As the party left for Toronto for a day’ of real diversion it was evident that all were highly optimistic. With the land question satisfactor- fly adjusted, the mediators and dele- gates were concentrating thelr atten- tion on the exact manmer in which a new provisional government might bo sot up to succeed the present regime. Wants Acceptable Man. The offart now is to arrange for a change of executives in a dignified manner. The mediation conference in all probability will not choose a provisional president, This will have to be done by the Mexico City gov- ernment itself. This process, which is recelving consideration, 1is the drawing up of a llst of representative Mexicans from which a certain num- ber might be approved by the United States and all parties concerned so that there would be no question about recognition being accorded to the In- dividual chosen therefrom. Ulti- mately it is the aim of the mediators be-- to see installed a man acceptable to all factions. Early Agreement Predicted. On these issues the mediation con- ference is preoccupied at present, but indications point to an early agree- ment on all points of difference. No one of the official party wus here to receive the announcement from Washington today that the rep- resentatives of the constitutionalists had taken steps to reopen the ques- tion of representation in the media- tion.
