The execution was set by the court to take pla.ee In the week beginning July 6. The appeal in Becker's case will act as a stay of execution, however, and it is expected that the court of appeals will not hand down a decision lor several months. While awaiting the decision, Becker will be confined for the second time in the death house at Sing Sing prison. Becker took the death sentence calmlv. Before Justice Seabury im

Urquidi. "It does not deal with the
internal problems of Mexico. General Carranza has already made clear his position on the subject. He has declared that the international questions must he dealt with by Mexico alone, and that he can not consent to their discussion by any mediation conference in which he may be represented.
"It follows that he can not agree ;
to any proposal for the creation of a provisional government since that is purely 4 domestic affair. He has not changed U's opinion on that point.

It is possible that he may delay the end of the negotiations for another month.

The mediators are evidently doing their utmost to induce Washington to recovsnlze the Huertistas as the ruling
faction, but are no longer confident ef
success in those efforts. President Wilson and Secretary of State Bryan have thus far turned a deaf ear to the scheme of the mediators. The arrival of the delegate whom the Carranzistas will select to watch the proceedings is anxiously awaited in view of the apparent deadlock that has been reached. It is believed that no final agreement will be endorsed until this agent has come here and stated the aims of the Rebels. His
