MEXlCANS AGsTATED
News of 10000 Troops Rushing to
Frontier Causes Alarm.

Mexico City, March 8.-Mexicans Of
all classes are greatly agitated be
cause of a dispatch from the United
States which was published here and
which stated that the Washington
government is rushing 10000 troops
to the frontier for the purpose of en-
forcing the neutrality laws. The uni
versal belief here is that this is the
first step towards the occupation Of
Mexican territory and that the state
ment that the movement is for the
added purpose of protecting American
interests is merely an excuse. 1t is
admitted on all sides, however, that
the Diaz government is not sufficient
Nv powerful to subdue the revolt with
in the near future, and that it will
probably be necessary to make some
concessions to the rebels in order to
restore peace to the country.
Reports recently received here show
that out Of thirty states in the repub-
lie twenty-one are in a state of rebel
lion. In many cases, of course, this
is sporadic, but so widespread is the
revolt against DiaZ that the govern
ment forces car do little more than
protect the larger towns and cities.

Senator Jones, of Nevada. He said
that in that state his colleague was
defeated for the short term. A friend

improvement anyway Now you car

story to the present situation"

Big Returns From Grains by Wis
cOnSin Farmers.

That members of the Wisconsin Elk
pertinent Association, which consists of
over 1900 former students of the
University of Wisconsin College of
Agriculture, sold not less than $500, 900
worth of selected seed grains last year,
is shown by the report Of director H.
l.. Russell of the Wisconsin Experiment
Station, just issued. One member of
the experiment association reported for
a portion of a season only, seed sales
aggregating S15. 900.
The work of reyolutionizing the type
of seed grain throughout the state is
being pushed by the department of
agronomy of the state university with
much vigor, Membership in the ex-
pertinent association, which is a unique
organization of its kind, entities the
holder to receive a small assignment of
the selected and pedigreed grains that
have been developed at the university.
These are grown on increase plots for
the first year, and by the second season,
the grower is in a position to market
this selected seed at good price.
The introduction of this seed i'm
provement work has markedly affected
the types of seed used in the state.
Mixed and scrub varieties are now
being replaced by pedigreed stocks
throughout Wisconsin.
Other efforts at pure bred seed dis
semination have been inaugurated
during the year by organizing three
bankers associations at New Rich
mond, Bloomington, and Mineral Point.

United States Undertakes Mill
tary Demonstration.
TWO THIRDS OF ARMY INVOLVED
Officials of War and Navy Depart
ments Say Military Display is a
Desire to Conduct Joint
Maneuvers.

Washington, March S.-A formidable
military demonstration for the protec-
ton of American and foreign proper
ties in Mexico has been taken by the
United States under the pretext of
holding joint army and navy maneu-
vers. This is the only logical in
ference that can be drawn from or
ders which have suddenly been issued
by the war department sending 10000
troops, or two-thirds of the regular
army now in the United States to the
Mexican border.
In addition to these troops 1000
marines, practically all the marines
on the Atlantic coast, are under or
ders to proceed Immediately to Guiana
tanamo, which is in striking distance
of Mexico, and the fifth division of the
Atlantic fleet, consisting of five fast
cruisers and auxiliaries, are sailing for
the port of Galveston.
Officials Of the war and navy de-
partments will acknowledge no rea-
son for this extraordinary military dis
play except a desire to conduct joint
maneuvers.
This sudden military demonstration
follows conferences which Henry Lane
Wilson, United States ambassador to
Mexico, has had here for at least two
days with officials of the state depart
ment. He made a gloomy statement
of conditions in Mexico. 1t is said
that he was pessimistic over the ex-
tent of the revolution in Mexico and
the ability of the Diaz government to
suppress it.
The Mexican revolution has now
been in progress for several months
and Diaz has failed to check it. The
United States interests in Mexico
have been estimated as high as 1,500,-
100000 and the protection of these in
terests would alone account for the
proposed mobilization of troops if the
officials of this government were con-
WINGED for a moment that the Mexican
government might not be able to cope
with the situation.
Great Britain also has extensive
railroad and mining interests in Mex
leo and there is practically no doubt
now that that government has COM
m%unicated through the British ambas-
sador with the state department with
regard to steps taken for the protec-
ton of the interests of foreigners in
Mexico. The Pearson syndicate, a
large British constructing firm, has
complained bitterly to that govern
ment of interference by insurrectOs in
chihuahua. The company asked the
British government to extend prOtec-
ton which it has failed to receive
from the government of Mexico.
The British government, in keeping
with it's policy to avoid entanglements
on this side of the Atlantic which
might involve the Monroe doctrine
has, it is understood, consulted with
the Washington government in regard
to the situation in Mexico. The Brit
ish government informed the depart
ment, however, that it might feel OBJ
liged to look after the interests Of its
own subjects if the United States
could not extend protection to for
eigners in Mexico.
No attempt was made by any gov
eminent officials to conceal the fact
that this government is confronted
by a serious situation in Mexico.
