People to Do All They Could to Slim

Texas-Honors jeff Davis Memory

Theodore Roosevelt was the guest of
New Orleans Saturday night, and the
city outdone itself to make him well
come. 1t is the colonel s first visit TO
New Orleans since October 16, 1905.
He came then as president of the
United States, defying the protests of
the rest of the country, for New Or
leans was recovering from an epidemic
of yellow fever. He spent but five
hours in the city, leaving at midnight
for Houston, Texas.
He went at once to his hotel on ar
rival, and then was hurried to the
French opera house, where his address
was delivered. Immediately after the
meeting he attended banquet given
in his honor, and then rushed to the
train.
On the trip from Jackson, Miss, to
New Orleans Colonel Roosevelt was
forced to make talks from the rear
platform of his car.
His Address.
In his address Mr.. Roosevelt spoke
simply and clearly on the mooted ques-
ton of Panama canal fortifcation
without bantering words of pity for
those who could not see the necessity
for such a safeguard. He pointed out
that there were only two nations in
the world that are bound by treaty to
respect the neutrality of the canal
Great Britain and Panama. No other
nation is in the least bound to recog-
nize the neutrality of the canal. In
deed, failure to fortify would bring
upon this country the derision of the
world. In time of war any nation
would have the right to seize the water
way.
Mr. Roosevelt even went so far as
to declare that, Notifications lacking,
the canal in time of war could be very
easily turned into an instrument for
the ruin of the United States.
Gateway City.
The eX-president spoke for nearly an
hour.
Facetious references to the criticisms
put upon him while president for I'M
dertaking the canal and a defense of
his attitude seemed to win with the
audience.
Mr.. Roosevelt touched also upon pr-
vate, corporate and public morality and
corruption. He gave little talk which
was a sermon, in which he embraced
individuals and corporations, the sue
cesSful scoundrel and the social outcast.
lie concluded with a stirring appeal to
the people of New Orleans to set for
ward every energy toward assisting her
. part of the country in u movement to
stimulate trade.
New Orleans, he declared, is destined
TO become probably the greatest sea
port town in the western hemisphere.

PRESIDENT DIAz Determined
To DOWN THE LAWLESS
Element There,
Destruction of Private Property Must
Stop and Anyone Caught in the Act
VIII Be Shot-Everyone, Native or
Foreigner, Will Receive No Mercy
U. S. Using Care for Her Subjects.

Mexico City, March 12.-Thoroughly
aroused by the spread of prigandage
and vandalism incident to the resolu-
ton led by Francisco Madero, and de-
termined to protect property, the Diaz
government this week will begin ia
wage against the lawless element a
pitiless war Of determination.
Resurrecting provision of the Mex
lean constitution not used in Is years,
the government will set aside for six
months certain personal guarantees.
Those detected in the act of highway
robbery or raiding village or farm,
train wrecking, cutting telegraph wires,
or even removing spike from rail
road track or throwing a stone at a
train, will be summarily shot by those
making the arrest.
The decision to ask for the suspen-
sion of personal guarantees" provid-
ed for by the constitution was reached
by the president in conference with
members of his cabinet This provision
is one calculated to permit the federal
government to put into effect at times
of extraordinary conditions a form eff
government approaching that of mar
tial law
Denies Civil Trial.
Under the constitution the govern
ment may declare martial law also, but
the provision invoked does not abro-
gate the power of the civil authorities
but does nedy, in cases of certain
crimes, right of trial.
Possibly the nearest approach found
in the United States is that which per
mits under certain conditions the with
drawal of the habeas corpus.
No More Troops Now.
Washington, March 12.-No addi-
tional troops have been ordered to
Texas or California nor are such or
ders in contemplation at the present
time, according to General Leonard
Wood, chief of staff.
The war department, however, is re
cruiting the infantry regulars of Major
General Carter division at San An
tonic to their full strength. The di-
vision now numbers about 10000 en-
listed men. 1t is expected this total
will be increased to 10000 men by the
addition of recruits in the ordinary
way.
Warships Visit Mexican Ports.
The gunboat Princeton, now at Pan
anna, will be ordered northward touch
ing at Acapulco, Mexico, and probably
at other Mexican points, while the gun
boat Yorktown will sail southwark
shortly from San Diego, Cal, also with
orders to stop at several Mexican ports.
These orders, in conjunction with
those issued few days ago to the gun
boat Tacoma and the scout cruiser Ches-
ter, will establish a patrol of United
States war vessels along both coasts of
Mexico.
