Troops to Stay on Border.

Washington, D. c., May 28.-It is
the plan of the administration, it was
learned at the White House, to keep
the American army in Texas all sum-
mer, regardless of what the final is
ste it, the Mexican revolution revolution may
be.
The reason assigned for this plan
is that the troops are already in Tex
as. They are undergoing valuable
war maneuvers. All this is now pos
sible without additional expense to
the Government.
It costs no more to maintain the
army division in the field after it
once gets there than it costs to main
tain that number of fighting men at
army posts. That is why the Gov
eminent purposes to keep the troops
now in Texas and along the Mexican
border in camp until next fall.
II is even said by army experts
that the actual cost of field operations
is less than the cost of maintenance
in the barracks.

An Exit and an Entrance.

Though the resignation of General
Diaz has been given to the American
press in translation whose smooth
ness and beauty remind us OF the at
tempts by 12-year-old boy upon the
first chapter of Caesars Commentar-
les on the Gallo War, the salient
characteristics of the original docu-
ment are not to be mistaken.
To speak with frankness and yet
without petulance or anger would
have been problem for man much
younger and stronger in frame than
the octogenarian who so lately ruled
Mexico from the Palacio Nacional.
In no recent act of his public career
has President Diaz more convincingly
proven his strength of mind and spir-
it than in that of bringing it to close.
He refers tersely to his last public
services, takes not of the personal
animus of the present revolt and pro-
tests his. own innocence of offense
against his country. He then resigns
his office, with an appeal to the calm
err and juster judgment xef more
quiet hour certain to come. The
words are those of man too great to
dissemble his pain or to descend be-
low the level Of calm and quiet asser-
ton of his own good faith.
The sympathy of all thinking men
will be with Senior de la Barra in his
difficult role. He has been chosen
to carry a disturbed and distracted
nation across the no mans land lying
between two regimes. The task is
one of supreme difficulty; if all goes
according to historic precedent it
will also be one of supreme thank
lessness. His is an opportunity call
ing for qualities of mind and heart
of the very first order, yet making it
well-nigh certain that the even hand
which he will hold between contend
ing parties within the State will be
cursed by both alike and the solid
merit of his achievements be obscured
by the more snowy successes which
his preparation of the way renders
possible to his successor.

Mexico City, Mexico, May &c.
Porfirio Diaz, to whom during thirty
years all Mexico has paid difference,
secretly left the capital at 2 O'Clock
this morning. Only a few friends,
whom he trusted, followed him to the
station.
He was bound for Vera Cruz to
take ship for Spain.
In the distance he could hear the
cheers of the enthusiastic celebrants
who were acclaiming the new presi-
dent, Francisco Leon de Ia Barra,
and shouting viva Madero!" So
carefully were the arrangements
made for his departure details could
not be confirmed until this afternoon.
Secrecy was due less to apprehension
Of a popular outburst than to a desire
to reach Vera Cruz without the fact
being known to marauding bands
along the route.
