Clearing Skies Bring
Renewed Activity for
San Antonio Troops

SAN ANTONIO, March O.-Clearing
skies, which rapidly dried of the fright
fully sticky wax" as Texas black mud
is called. permitted a resumption OF
camp routine today and regimental and
brigade commanders seized upon good
weather to put recruits and old cam
paigners through prolonged drills In
preparation for a Mexican invasion
which they believe is inevitable.
Press dispatches telling of the trip to-
Mexico City of Jose Yves Limantour,
Mexican minister of finance, were eag-
erly seized upon by commanders who
believe intervention depends entirely
upon the result of Limantour's confer
ence with the Diaz administration and
secret conferences with the Madero
lieutenants. Underground reports are
that the key to the situation is in
sight, and that Limantour rushed to
Mexico with an ultimatum from the
American Government.
Believing that the result of Liman-
tours conference will be known be-
fore the end of a week and that
American Intervention is certain If
Limantour fails to carry out the
wishes OF Washington, army officers
are continuing plans for an invasion.
With the arrival of 5000 troops at Fort
Crockett, Galveston, 1t is believed all
plans are completed, and that speedy
action will follow. The fact that these
1900 soldiers also carried half a million
rcvnds OF ammunition is regarded as
most significant, for General Mills men
uo 20, meru tuat much. and officers
think Il is held in reserve for San An
tonic troops, in event they proceed to
Vera Cruz via Galveston.
Officers point to the mobilization OF
marines and troops at Guantanamo,
Cuba, as proof that Vera Cruz is Sc
lected rs the initial point of attack, be-
cause the forces could Re sent on a
straight line, reaching there as soon a.
troops from Galveston.
At Galveston the coast artillerymen
who have formed an infantry brigade
there, are being drilled almost con-
stantly for field duty, something to
which they are unaccustomed. - 2 :,

Of Transport Meade

water orders were issued today to
Capt. a. d. LothrOp, commander OF
the transport Sumner, to proceed to
Newport News and take command of
the transport Meade. 1t is believed
that the Meade will be brought to
Galveston for the use of the first
provisional regiment under command
of Col. C. J. Bailey, which came to
Galveston by rail.
The collier Ajax is in port with
full cargo of coal and awaiting orders.
while the cruisers Tacoma and Salem
probably will take on coal at the
local yards, indicating the Ajax
cargo will be used for emergency.
Rumors in army and naval circles
today, are that troops in Galveston
will be ordered to Vera Cruz and
Puerto Mexico, the movement pos
sibly to come within ten days.

A settlement would be welcomed in
Administration quarters for the reason
II would point to justification for Pres

Majority of Miners
Obey Strike Orders

WHEELING, w. Va. March 2o.-The
strike order issued by President T l.
Lewis, of the United Mine Workers,
calling out 1000 miners In the Eastern,
Ohio, fields, was obeyed by all but
about 500 men.
The vote against striking at Sundays
meeting was more than three to one,
but the threat of taking away charters
of the locals refusing to obey the order
and the fear of trouble kept all but
three of the mines idle.
At Barton. where LAO men were or
dered to kuit, the whistle blew and the
men started to work, but a demonstra-
tion by the minority in favor of striking
was sufficient to prevent the men from
entering the mine

HAS MANY
GIFTS FOR M|LADY
Marvellous Are Easter Adorn-
ments At Palais Royals
Opening.

With Easter less than a month OFF,
the Washington maid and matron Is
preparing for its coming, and Is busy
in the mysteries of her spring toilette,
and,- perhaps, nowhere in Washington
Is this fact more APPARENT than at the
Palais Royal, where the annual spring
opening-which also marks the seven
teenth anniversary of the FIRMS occu-
pancy of the Twelfth and G street
location-is in progress. Within the
store, which is made gay with quanti-
Ties of flowers, growing over trelises,
and twining pillars, and to which the
music OF hundreds of canaries add a
springlike note, there is a bewilder-
ing display of all that is dear to the
heart of woman.
The millinery department, the section
occupied by the gowns and suits, the
counters where dainty trifles are sold,
those necessary little adjuncts that
make or mar the perfection of a
toilette, in fact, In every section of the
store the Easter touch is in evidence.
Empire Fashion Back.
That the Empire fashion has return
ed is demonstrated in the gown and
suit department. where the smartest
models show the raised waistlinc. to-
gether with the three-quarter length
sleeve OF a few seasons ago. The
short jacket will be the preferred
model, fer old and young alike, and
some exceptionally daring color
schemes are being exploited. such as
cerise with navy blue. coral with pur-
pie. and the always favored magpie
effect of black and white
a beautiful gown shown is of white
net. with applique of black beads. the
stunning scarlet girGle of satin, and
the turned back cuffs of the same ma
terial giving a Frenchy touch to the
and footwear. the effect would be
stunning.
Paris Styles.
The houses of Georgette. Virot. Lam
vene, Guy. Marion Lewis. and Pirot are
represented in the millinery. Flowers
in every conceivable shade are COM
bined with brilliant ribbons in the trim
ming. and there is a decided tendency
toward rich effects, obtained with
feathers and feather bands. The will
low plume is conspicuous by its alb
sence, and its place has been taken by
the unCurled French ostrich plume and
the ostrich bandings. one rich hat. en-
tirely in black. is OF fine hOrsehair braid.
the low crown enCirCled by an ostrich
band, held in place with a cabochOn
ornament of braid and a baroque pearl.
There is a noticeable tendency toward
the use of bright colOrs, rather than
the pastel shades OF a season ago. The
newest shade, closely followed by coral.
Is Spring Green"
EmInence purple. and Helen pink. the
latter being purely a Washington insti-
tuition named for the preference OF the
White House belle, are both choice
shades this season, and there is A de-
cided leaning toward saddle brown for
less dressy millinery.
In the departments devoted to the sale
Of trimmings. 1t Is noticed that Egyptian.
Oriental. and Bulgarian effects are the
choice. The rich color combination and
the cOnventionalized designs are used,
entirely effacing the floral designs that
were popular season or two ago.

The significance in the fumigation lies
