WE MAY INTERVENESOON IN MEXIGO

PRESIDENT TAFT WILL CALLSESSION OF CONGRESSNNE DECIDING.

Long War Probable--Orders Given for

Movement of Additional U. S. Troops

to the Border—Americans Being

Murdered and Robbed and Property

Destroyed—Seek Protection.

Beverly, Mass.—Although President

Taft wet not intervene In Mexico with-

out the fullest deliberation, taking a

step that would mean war, his friends

deelare that intervention is nearer this

week than it has been since the firstAmerican troops were rushed to theborder 18 months ago.

It can be stated on the highest au-thority, however, that should the pres-ident decide that intervention is theonly course open to him he will callcongress in special sessicn and de-mand of it authority to send an Amer-ican army across the border. Underno circumstances, he has told hisfriends, would he do an unfriendly actagainst Mexico without consulting con-gress.

HARLAN TO TRAIL COLONEL.

With John F. Ryan He Is to Talk forTaft.

Chicago—Director Mulvane at thenational republican headquarters an-nounces that John It Harlan of Chi-cago will follow Colonel Rooseveltthrough Oregon 'ad other Pacificstates. Harlan will be accompanied byJohn T. Ryan from lbs New York head-quarters of the national republicancommittee

Reluctant to intervene.

Friends of the president realize thathe would give the order to Invade Mex-ico only with greatest reluctance. They

are aware that it already has beencharged by senators that the presidentmight send an army across the line,matte himself a "war president" andrely on that to bring victory to him-self and the republican party In No-vember.Mr. Taft has said that such a state-

ment is without foundation and hasdeclared to his advisers that it wouldbe hard to conceive of • president whowould use his office to throw the coun-try into a war that experts have pre-dicted could not end in less than twoyears, that would omit millons, thatwould mean the sacrifice of thousandsof lives and ruin for years to come thebasis of this nation's friendship withCentral and South American republics.

Cavalry Ordered to Border.

The president has authorized Gen-eral Leonard Wood, chief of staff, U. S.A., to dispatch two more regiments ofcavalry to the Texas border. The reg-iments will be sent from Fort Riley,Kan., and Fort D. A. Russell, Wyo. Bofar as the president was informedthere will be no immediate need formore troops in Texas, but conditionsalong that border have grown worseIn the last few weeks.It is In the southern part of Mexico,

however, that the president haslearned of Intolerable conditions af-fecting Americans. There the Maderogovernment, according to the Informa-tion, is unable to cope with the revolu-tionists, and there seems to be littleprospect that the situation will im-prove.

Oregon Soya Lem In Alaska,

Juneau, Alaska —John Shattuck, 21

years old, a student at the Universityof Oregon, Dell Linscott, aged 20, aresident of Douglas, and Leslie Oliver.17 years old, of Juneau, are believed to

Hint to Madero.

The president has communicated a

demand that President Madero may bemore active in protecting Americans.He is hopeful that this reminder,meant for the Mexican president andMexican foreign office as well, will befruitful of results in both southernand northern Mexico.The situation south of the Mexican

capital is regarded as particularly dan-gerous to Americans, because the rev-olutionists there apparently have less

fear of an American invasion thantheir brothers In the north. The onlyfavorable plan for protection of Amer-icans in the south, Mr. Taft has beentold, would be to send troops to somegulf port of Mexico.The trouble Is in the Interior and

the landing of troops in • Mexican

port would mean intervention and war.
