II to the New Mexican.


i Washington D. c., March 9.-Possi-
Ehlv Uncle Ssm received "hunch"
THAT certain foreign governments were
passing notes regarding the Mexico
insurrsction and therefore decided to
! send a sufficient force for the protec-
ton of the lives and interests of it's
own and all other citizens, leaving no
excuse for other countries to send any
Occupying force that might demand a
rconcession of territory after the
trouble is settled, thus preventing an
opportunity for serious complications
that few weeks will develop so COM
! plicated the indications have become.
Meanwhile the large land and naval
forces will be concentrated in the At
lantic and Pacific sections.
The Roswell-Vaughn automobile
mail route has been re-established.
This was the message sent by
Judge A. B. Fall, who has been in
Washington on New Mexico territorial
business. Judge Fall said in his mes.
sage that he has hope that the Tula-
rosa-Roswell line by way of Cloud
croft would also be established later
and that he would take it up with
Postmaster General Hitchcock upon
his return to Washington from New
York.
How About Japan.
| That the demonstration on the Mex
! ican border may serve as warning
against Japan for forming closer rela-
tions with Mexico in order to strike al
this country from that country, was
one phase of the situation which de-
veloped today.
In defiance of the Monroe doctrine,
Japan, it is alleged, has been endeav-
oring to obtain naval station on the
west coast of Mexico, where hundreds
of thousands of Japanese have formed
colonies. Most of them are men who
have served in the japanese army dur
ing the war with Russia,
The Diaz government has shown a
disposition to befriend the Japanese
and has encouraged their colonization.
Military experts today pointed out the
danger to the United States in this
movement, as Mexico, with its mild eli
mate most of the year, is admirably
situated for base of operations.
Others VIII Have to Go.
Washington, D. c., March 9.-There
| is not the slightest doubt that it was
with great reluctance that Mr.. Taft
| consented to the retirement of Ballin-
ger, but in doing so he apparently de
| termined to make as clean sweep as
possible of the interior department
Oscar W. Lawler of California, who
! has been assistant attorney general
for the interior department, will CO.
and rumors are rife that Fred bennett
commissioner of the general land Of
flee will not long remain Both of
these men have been stanch and loyal
supporters of Ballinger, and Lawler
wrote the report clearing his chief of
the CLAWS Alaskan coal charges, which
President Taft signed. Their success
sors have not yet been named.
Examination for West Point.
Washington, March "a special ex.
animation of candidates for appoint
ments as cadets at the West Point
Military Academy has been ordered
by the War Department to take place
May 2 at several military posts. A
statement issued from the general
staff calls attention to the fact that
for several years the cadet corps had
been rs to 80 per cent of it's full quota.
| Believing that many young men are
deferred from taking the examination
| by the expense of the long journey to
the present centers, candidates will be
examined at the nearest suitable mill.
