José Emilio Rabasa Estebanell (22 May 1856 — 25 April 1930) was a Mexican prominent writer, diplomat, and politician. He wrote extensively on constitutional law, served as Governor of Chiapas, as state congressman, chaired several Mexican Academies and co-founded ''El Universal''; an influential newspaper in Mexico City.Rabasa wrote several novels under the pen name Sancho Polo.
Rabasa, Agustín Rodríguez and Luis Elguero left Veracruz on May 10, 1914 aboard the German ship to represent Victoriano Huerta's regime at the Niagara Falls conference mediating the dispute with the United States. The delegation, along with support staff, arrived in Washington on May 16 where they were hosted by the State Department until departure for the conference on May 20, a change from May 18 in order to make time for the delegation's visit to Washington. On May 18 the delegation had been empowered to offer Huerta's resignation if necessary and began work at Niagara Falls on May 20 under the auspices of mediators composed of officials of Argentina, Brazil and Chile. An agreement resulted in the signing of a peace protocol on June 24, 1914. Provided by Wikipedia
