Only Thing to Break Mo

Three MexicanS.

Col. A. c. Sharpe, of the Twenty
third infantry returned Monday after
noon from an inspection Of the pa
troll line between Ell Paso and Polvo'
Tex, below the city.
The only thing that had happened TO
break the monotony of the patrol duty
had been the arrest of three Mexicans
who were attempting to drive a wagon
load of food supplies across the river
opposite Guadalupe. The men were
taken into custody by the United
States troops and turned over to the
deputy United States marshal at Fa-
bens They claimed to be part of the
wagon train which is following Gen
Navarro's army and were on the
American side to get food for the fed
eral forces. They will be given an OPP

TAFTs POLICY UNCHANGED
Army at Border viii Enforce the Neu-

President Taft made known his de-
termination to continue his policy of
non-interference in the Mexican revo-
luton so long as there remains any
hone of a settlement of affairs there
and protection of American life and
property through other means than by
armed intervention.
Though the renewal Of hostilities at
Juarez has troubled the president a
great deal, he is still far from the end
Of his patience and has no intention
as yet of abandoning his efforts to
keep the fighting away from the Dor
der line and TO keep American resi-
dents of border towns away from the
danger zone when fighting is in pro-
gTess.
The confidential reports Of the war
department state that revolution ex-
lists in all but two of the states in
Mexico and that only few of them
seem to have any connection with the
Madero revolution. This situation in
creases the difficulty in handling the
question, as there is no reliable head
that can be dealt with. The president
went over the situation with the cabi-
net. The reports received by the war
department were submitted by Secre-
tary Dickinson, but no statement was
made as 10 any decision made.
