SAN FRANCISCO, March 1C.--
Orders are said to have been re-
ceived today by government officials
at his point that are thought to be
instructions to stand ready for th'
immediate transportation of the
~e.N@NNsNNsNN-eGN-N-eSN-
ed a resolution substantiating his
action.
Among the items eliminated by
the mayor were $12,500 for street
lights, 1920 for the health depart
ment, $17,110 for street and sewer
work and $1,000 for the conting-
ent fund.
The police department has been
instructed to reduce its expenses
$6997.
The council attempted to raise
the needed funds by levying spec
ial tax but the supreme court ruled
such action illegal and the pruning
system was resorted to.
Although the city will burn nc
street lights for year the main
street will be lighted as usual, the
business houses having decided tC
stand the expense.

MONROE DOCTRINE

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, March
1O.-While passing through this
city last night, on his trip through
the south, President Taft stated
that the reason for ordering troops
and battleships to the Mexican line
and coast was due to the fact that
the United States had determined
that the revolution in the republic
Of Mexico must be terminated. He
stated further that the army which
is being thrown along the frontier
will remain there until such time as
the revolution has ceased.

true, but in the majority of instances,

from some intestinal trouble, usually
constipation.

is flushing of the bowels to be always
