PRESIDENTS MOVE

WASHINGTON, Mar. S.-Not since
the days preceding the Spanish war
has official Washington been SO stirred
as today by the sudden mobilization
OF one-fourth of the standing army on
the Mexican border.
The official statement of yesterday
that the vast movement of troops was
merely for the purpose of holding
maneuvers is practically forgotten to-
day in view of the reported imminent
death of President Diaz OF Mexico and
the insistent threats of the European
countries that they will interfere un-
less the United States proves its abil-
ity to handle the situation.
Army men laughed up their sleeves
at the official explanation and say that
in all history no maneuver was ever
ordered in such haste or in such a
manner.
TO a man who understands army
orders. it is apparent these troops are
being moved for business purposes, /"
ueciared an eminent army officer to-
day.
The above message was received
Just as we go to press and, to our
mind, 1t may explain the mystery of
the sudden mobilization of the troops
on the Mexican border. II Diaz should
die the governmental affairs of Mex.

There are thousands of citizens of this
country temporarily residing there
