siasm OF the officers of the militia bf

THE PRESIDENT
is DELIGHTED
DECISION OF SUPREME COURT Is
RECEIVED BY HIM WITH MUCH
ELATIoN, AS HE INSISTED Law
WAS CONSTITUTIONAL.
BY Associated Press.

Augusta, Ga, March 13.-President
Taft today received dispatches from
General Wood, chief Of staff of the
army, stating that the mobilization of
troops in Texas is practically com
plete.4 1t is understood that there Is no
intention now of increasing the num-
Der of troops, as it is believed that
there is sufficient force on the ground
for. any immediate emergency that
might arise.
The president was delighted today
at the news of the decision Of the su-
preme court upholding the validity of
the corporation tax. Taft insisted
to put the law on the statute books
during the tariff fight over the Payne
Aldrich bill, saying the law would be
held constitutional despite the fact
that many senators and others who
opposed it expressed the belief 1t would
not stand before the highest tribunal
Of the land.
1t now seems practically assured the
president while in Augusta will not
act on the cases Of Charles W. Morse
and John T. Walsh. He came here
to rest and is anxious to spend as
much time as possible out of doors.
During an automobile ride this after
noon the president visited the Augusta
arsenal and was received with a sa-
lutte Of tWenty-one guns.

Dallas, March 13.-"Failure to fortI.
fy the Panama canal would be an act
of criminal folly" declared Roosevelt
tonight in addressing a banquet In his
honor by the chamber of commerce.
He said that only two treaties relative
to the ca-,al exist, those with England
and Panama, and any other nation
would be at liberty to destroy it in
case of war.
II any political significance is at
tached to Roosevelt's farewell swing
around the country. no suggestion OF
its nature is forthcoming up to the
present time. The colonel arrived In
Dallas tonight and was the guest Of
business organizations of the city at
dinner. He received here the same
enthusiasm that has marked every
step of his journey.
He addressed the dinner guests on
ideals OF good citizenship, and when
he retired for the night he had com
pleted six days OF his Journey without
single mention of political questions
of the day.

Special to The journal.

Apalachicola, Fla, March 1s.-Fire
late Saturday afternoon completely de-
stroyed the plant of the Apalachicola
Lumber Co., burning the immense mill
to the ground. as well as destroying
the steamer Oronco and two large
launches. H. Griggs, a colored deck
hand on one of the boats, lost his life
by drowning, presumably jumping
overheard from the vessel after he had
remained until escape to the wharf
was impossible.
The fire was first discovered about
o'clock. and the high wind prevailing
caused it to spread rapidly. 1t was
soon beyond control. although all OF
the mill hands turned out to fight II.
The steamer Oronco, meored at this
wharf caught, followed by two large
gasoline launches, which were also
moored there, and these were soon de-
stroyed.
The mill was situated on the rfvor
about six miles from this place, and
assistance was sent from here but ar
rived too late to save the plant. but
succeeded in saving the lumber yards
and dry kilns.
The plant was one OF the largest and
most modern In this section The
amount of the loss is not known.

New York, March 13.-The Mexican
ambassador here and the Mexican
minister of finance received assurances
from Washington tonight which con-
vince them of the sincere cooperation
between the administration of Taft
and that of Diaz. 1t is not professed
that all of the tension is slackened, but
the edge of apprehension was appre-
ciably blunted by two pieces of news
tonight.
The first was a long telegram to
Ambassador De La Barra from the
state department at Washington. an
nouncing that United States warships
assigned to patrol duty on the. Pacific
and gulf coasts of Mexico had been
ordered to call at Mexican ports only
for coal and then withdraw promptly
The second development was the
publication here today Of an author
lied interview with Secretary of War
Dickinson in which he denied this
government contemplated Intervention
or that an order had been issued to
mobilize a second army on the frontier,
Weight is attached to a statement
issued tonight from the offices of La
denburg, Thalman & Company, fiscal
agents here for the Mexican govern
ment. After careful investigation
runs the statement in part I'VE car
say on the best authority that the
Mexican government feels absolutely
safe to handle the internal disturb
ances and steps are being taken not
only to dispose Of this situation, but
the Intention exists to carry through
certain administration reforms which
mean much for restoring satisfactory
political conditions IN the interior"
