WILL PROTECT AMERICANS
President Taft Determined That Flu.
ture combats In Mexico Must Not
Occur Near American Line.

Washington.-President Taft is de
termined that battles between Mexi
can federals and insurrectos shall not
be fought on American soil. He is
equally determined that the lives OF
American non-combatants shall not
be endangered by the forces of Presi
dent Diaz and those of General Ma.
dero.
Future combats between the reb-
els and the forces of the Mexican
government must not be fought out
SO close to the American line as to
put in jeopardy the lives and prop
erty of Americans.
Through the state department the
President on Friday night notified
the Mexican government that 1t must
see to 1t that hereafter no such un
fortunate incident as that at Aqua
PIieta, when two Americans were
killed and eleven wounded, be al
lowed to occur. Through the war de
partment and through the department
of justice the president sent similar
warning to the leader of the insur
fectos at Aqua Prieta.

President Taft Receives Bulletins at
the White House from the War
Department Regarding the Ad-
vance Of Federals upon In
surgent Forces.

Washington.-Anxiety over devel.
opments in Mexico endangering the
lives and property of Americans is
palinly evident in official circles.
President Taft until nearly mid
night Sunday received bulletins at the
White House from the war depart
ment regarding the advance OF the
federals upon the insurgent forces at
Aqua Prieta.
DIR. Vasques Gomez was in con-
stant communication with the insur-
gent junta at FL Paso, Tex, who
transmitted to him messages from
the insurgent army advancing on
Juarez.
Mindful of the incidents OF last
week around Aqua Prieta, DR.. Gomez
telegraphed message of warning to
his constituents to avoid injury to
American lives or property. He was
advised that the insurrectos had mob
ilized practically their entire army in
Chihuahua under Francisco Madero,
Jr., to within striking distance Of
Juarez.

In FAVOR OF DIRECT ELECTION
Democratic Majority Approves the
Rueker Resolution Providing for
Election of Senators.

Washington.-The house OF repre-.
sentatives, by vote OF 296 to 16, late
Thursday passed the Rueker reso.u.
ton proposing e constitutional amend.
ment for the direct election of United
States senators. This is the first OF
the Democratic platform measures
passed by the house. 1t went through
without modification and with a speed
that brought protests from the Repub.
Iicans.
The resolution, as the house ap-
proved it. Is in the form of the Borah
resolution reported out of the senate
judiciary committee In the closing
hours of the last congress. Repub-
lican opposition to the Rucker resolu.
tion in the house was based on the
fact that 1t did not contain the
changes made in the fight in the sen.
ate, which assured to congress con
tinued control over elections in the
several states.

CANADA IS WAITING

IcAN STATESMEN ACT.
The Canadian Government, Backed
by Comfortable Majority, is
Pledged and Anxious to Put the
Agreement Through.

Ottawa, Ont.-A favorable report or
the reciprocity agreement with the
United States is looked for by mem
bers of the Dominion government moi
long after parliament reassembles
Wednesday.
Settlement OF the reciprocity issue
in Canada, it is said, now depends
primarily upon action at Washington.
ANY assurance that congress will rati-
fy the agreement may be coupled with
the assurance that the Canadian par
lament will do its part
The Canadian government, backed
by majority of more than forty in
the house, is pledged and anxious to
put the agreement through as soon
as the conservative opposition per-
mits vote Ratification then by the
senate would be merely a matter of
form, since the governments sup
porters in that body outnumber the
conservatives three to one.
Until the agreement is ratified by
both American branches, the fight
against it in the Canadian house will
be continued by Mr.. Borden's adher
ents along the lines followed the last
six weeks But their stubborn resist
ance admittedly Is being kept up only
in the hope that the situation may be
saved, from the conservative point OF
view, by a failure Of the senate at
Washington to pass the American
part of the pact.
