UNCLE SAM HEEDS
MEXICO'S PROTEST
War Ships Ordered to Coal
Only at Ports.
ACTION GRATIFIES OFFICIALS
Ambassador de la Barra and Min
lister of Finance LimnntOur Ex-
Direction that American Craft
Withdraw from Mexican Harbors.

New York, March 13.-That Mexico had
formally protested to this government
against any of our war ships being sta
toned in her ports and that as a result
of such protests the ships had been or
dered TO call at such ports only for coal
and to leave Immediately after getting
it was the news given out at the Plaza
this evening by F. L. de la Barra, the
Mexican Ambassador.
In formal statement announcing this
both he and Senior LimantOur, the Mexican
minister of finance, expressed great graft
fiCatiOn a the action taken by the gov
Crnment after receiving the Ambassador s
representations Of the subject The state
ment given out at the Plaza was the first
intimaiOn that there had been an ex-
change of notes on the subject of the
presence of war ships in Mexican ports
Mr. LimantOur said that while he had
not credited the report that 10000 addi-
tiOnal troops would soon be assembled
near the border, he was pleased to learn
of the denial by Gen. Wood that the War
Department had issued an order or was
contemplating ordering more troops to
the South. That this government had
taken prompt steps to preserve the neu-
trality laws Mr.. Iimantour said, could
not help being gratifying to his govern
ment.
Senior I4imantour had few callers to-
day. and most of his day was given
over to comforting with the Ambassador,
who came up from the Astor. where he
has been staying. and spent most of the
afternoon in Senor Limantour's apart
ments Late in the afternoon Senior Ii
mantour went out driving with his wife,
|I@ -
hotel 1t was apparent then that both
were expecting important news of some
kind.
No Negotiations Contemplated.
That there had been or would be con-
ferences between himself and the repre-
sentatives OF the insurrectionists here
Senor Limantour denied very emphati-
cally repeating his former statements
that there could be no negotiations with
them unless they laid down their arms.
In that event, he said, his government
would undertake to study their alleged
grievances.
No date has been fixed for Senor Ii
mantour's departure. Ambassador de la
.Barra said that he would return to Wash
ington tomorrow morning. He would
have left this morning but for a promise
he had made to go to the opera as the
guest of James Speyer.
At the Astor the representatives of the
readed by Gustav A.
Madero had little to say beyond denying
that they intended to confer with the
Plaza diplomats. Madero, in answer TO
a question, said that he did not think
any of the insurrectionists would
resent the mobilization of our troops as
long as they did not cross the line.

ADVERTISING TALKS.
WRITTEN BY WILLIAM c. FREEMAN

MIR. L. ]. HOROWITZ, Pres
idcnt and General Manager of the
Thompson-Starrett Co., and |
were lunching together the other
day, and he talked earnestly and
ent husia 5 sticallv about the
VALUE OF ADVERTISING
to his big construction company.
He spends about $25, 1000 year
in adverhsing-an unheard Of
thing for a contracting firm to
do until this young man, the
President (he is only about
thirty-fve years old), persuaded
his associates that his company
really had an INTERESTING
story to tell to the public.
THE ADVERTISEMENTS
ARE NOT LARGE-a couple of
inches most of the time-but they
appear regularly, and in the best
positions in the newspapers that
money can buy.
Mr.. Horowitz believes in buy
ing THE BEST in newspaper
space-just as he believes in buy
ing the best material for the
buildings his company constructs
just as he believes in paving the
price for the most skilled labor
Just as he believes in surrounding
himself with associates who COM
mand big remuneration for their
ability.

THAT OUR ADVERTISEMENTS

Men seem to like the direct way
in which our advertisements talk

people HOW anC WHY We make

We make it clear that a con-
tractor, of the right kind, must be
willing to put all of his cards on
the table when he enters into an
arrangement to construct a build

TT is all very simple and
straightforward-ju a tribute to
the wisdom of following the path
OF Old-fashioned honesty.
We are often asked to give
advice to intending builders even
though we are unable to under
take the work, and we give It
freely. 1t keeps US busy. but it

MEXICAN UNREST SEEN.
Col. KnifYin Gives Lecture Mt First
Congregational Church.

Congregational Church.
Col G. c. Knifin described parts os
Mexico he visited last September be-
fore the Soldiers Union of the First
Congregational Church last night.
The only mention the speaker made
OF the present trouble in Mexico was
that he was not surprised when 1t
came. He said when he visited the
sections where the insurrection is now
at its worst, he remarked to Mexican
on the peacefulness that reigned. The
Mexican said it appeared that way on
the surface, but he volunteered the in
formation that a strong undercurTent
of dissatisfaction with conditions in
general would eventually break out.

Augusta, Ga. March 13.-Assistant
had a conference of more than an hour
with President Taft here to-day, and
left tonight for Washington. Mr.. Will
son brought a big portfolio, but it was
announced officially that he merely
dropped in at Augusta on his way from
Aiken. S. c., to Washington.
1t become known tonight that no
more troops will be dispatched to Texas.
The force that will be on hand when
all that have been dispatched to the
frontier have reached their destination
is deemed sufficint to put up a solid wall
and preserve neutrality.
The statement that there has been fric-
tion between President Taft and Secre-
tary OF State Knox over the maneuvers
| is denied here to-day The relations
between the President and the head of
the State Department are said never TO
have been more friendly.
No Truth in Rumors.
This rumor. it seems. was to the effect
that the President after consulting with
Secretary of War Dickinson and Secre-
tary of the Navy Meyer, had precipitated
Secretary of State Knox into his conf
dence. Also 1t was suggested that the
State Department policy with regard to
Mexico and the revolution had been dis
approved by the President. All of this
statements made about the matter. Sec
retary Knox was consulted fully and the
attitude OF his department throughout the
whole difficulty was sustained by the
President.
President Taft was pleased tonight
when he learned of the favorable de-
cision of the Supreme Court in the corpo-
ration tax case. AS friend put it, the
corporation tax law was Mr.. Taft'S
baby and he never doubted its con-
stitutionality. A prominent banker, who
is in Augusta, said to-day that he had
spent $4,000 trying to prove this law
unconstitutional
WouId Preserve Niagara Falls.
The President chatted to-day about the
preservation of Niagara Falls with Mich
Olas Murray Butler. of Columbia Univer-
Sity, and Charles NJ Dow. A suggestion
was made to the President that he urge
legislation to preserve the falls in his
next general message to Congress. Leg
islation proposing to protect Niagara Falls
failed to pass Congress at the last ses-
sion.
The President talked about the new sec
Ond-class postage rate commission with
William B. Howland, Of the Outlook and
Albert Shaw. OF the Review of Reviews.
He is to see Clark Howell. of the Atlanta
Constitution. on the same subject while
in Augusta.
The papers in the Morse and Walsh
pardon cases were taken out OF a White
House trunk to-day. but tonight the
President told Secretary Norton to have
them put back. He probably will not
look at them this week.
The President had another day in the
open. He played golf this morning with
Capt Butt, and made the eighteen holes
in ninety-seven. This afternoon he mo-
tored out to the arsenal near here with
Mrs. Taft. They took tea with Col Burr,
the comma ndant. There are only twenty
soldiers at the arsenal, but they gave the
President the twenty-one-gun salute in
good style.
