Must Not Be Repeated.

Neither the president nor any of his
advisers whom he called into con-
sultation tonight was inclined to re-
gard the incident mt Aqua Pricta as a
forerunner Of anything more serious,
but they concluded that ii must not be
repeated.
The president knows that battle
grounds are not chosen like places for
the holding of athletic contests, but ut
the same time he takes the position
that preparation for battle must be
made by the hostile forces with due
consideration of the effect upon non
comhatant Americans.
Spectators Too Eager.
The president knows that some OF
the American spectators at yesterday $

tn fight and might have got too close
To the engaged forces, but he has been
informed also that warning was given

too close to the United States, Here
after this government expects both the
insurrectos and the federal troops /,
erect trenches or make their lines Of
battle far enough from American soil
to make 1t certain that Americans en-
gagged in the occupations of peace will
not be interrupted
President Taft feels that his order
sending the troops to Texas has been
entirely justified by the developments
of the last few days. He Is more cer-
tain than ever that conditions in the
southern republic are alarming. He Is
hoping that there should be no need
for any further movement TO the south
but II there should be he knows that
10000 American troops are near the
Rio Grande and that on that river and
the Mexican border itself is already a
force that Is not insignificant.
