A considerable foree of -Mexicans attacked the nine miles out, at 11 0 'clock this morning, according to. a wireless message received here, whieh asked for aid.

Supporting troops were at once ordered forward by train trom Vera Cruz to iA Tejor, where the waterworks are situated. No intimation waa given in the wireless message as to tbe size and identity of the attacking force. What bad promised to be tbe first fight between the United States army aild the Mexican troops today ended in the exchange of not more than half a dozen shots. The Mexicans threatened to "attack immediately unless the Americana surrendered their position at tbe waterworks at 1 Tejer within 10 minutes," but failed to fulfill their menace. The Mexicans are still holding a position beyond the waterworks station and the American troops nave received nO orders to advance.

At 11 o'clock this morning a Mexican force estimated at from 300 to 500 men appeared a sjpiile beyond the waterworks station.

The three South American envoys today made another decisive move by-requesting the United States government, General Huerta and General Carranza to appoint representatives to confer with them in. Washington.

No announcement of the subjects to be considered or of the powers or tbe functions of the new envoys was made except for the following brief statement through the State Department: Statement by Mediators. "Tbe Jnediatort have delivered to this government and are sending out to General Huerta and General Carranza requests that representatives be appointed to confer with the This new- plan was the result of ah all day session of the mediators. It was suggested to them that much time would be saved and the probfcm of exchanging views simplified. While the representatives of tbe three parties probably will not be given authority finally to pass oa points brought up, they eould sound out their superiors so that, before formal proposals actually were made, tbe mediators would have an idea of their probable reception. The envoys are confident that the step will meet with favor by all concerned.

Scope of tbe Conference. Thus far responses from, General Huerta and General Carranza have not been clear as to whether the differences between the United States and Mexico arising out of the Tampieo incident alone would considered by them, or whether they woudl consent to a general discussion of the 'Mexican problem. By sending repreeentattvea here it is pointed Out such difficulties would be bridged ever. Tbe mediators intend to concentrate their attention on the broad of pacifying Mexico, hoping that difference between tbe United States aud the Hoerta government may thus be-eomoseeoBaary.

It is believed iXt Huerta now realizes that a failure of mediation would esrrv him down with H. It is known that a late as last Wednesday after Portillo had cabled Huerta's acceptance of mediation, Huerta 'xold one of the European ministers at Mexico Citv that he believed mediation' would fail and urged that European powers get together on Some alternative plan.
