Washington, March 11-No further
effort will be made to conceal the fact
that one-fourth of the United States
army is being modified in Texas for
the purpose of aiding President Diaz
in suppressing the Madero revolution.
The ban of secrecy has been official.

arises, in which case the army will
act decisively and will not stop short
of invasion of Mexico if an invasion
seems essential to the maintenance
of the Diaz government.
At present the troops form an
army of observation" and for the
present their activity will be limited
to this side of the international boun.
dary.
The diplomatic intercourse between
the United States and the Diaz gov.
ernment, eliminating Thursday in the
long conference at the White House
between Ambassador de la Barra and
President Taft, has determined a
definite policy of action in which the
Mexican federal army and the Ameri-
can troops will move in concert, if
necessary, for the preservation of the
present government in Mexico. 1t is
pointed out that there is, therefore,
no longer any necessity for secrecy.
What Is "cause for Action?"
The only question remaining in
doubt is as to what this government
will consider necessary cause for ac.

Second-To check the secessionary

Fifth-To engage in practice ma

The mobilized army will practically
establish a human wall along the

Diaz government hopes that this will
SO cut off the revolutionists from their
source of supplies that they will be

panic of last night when day dawned,
despite NavarrO's attempts to reassure
the inha bitants. The suddenness OF the
explosion and the apparent ease with
which the insmrectos got into the city,
indicate that the federal troops guard
in" the town have not kept Il close
watch.
The explosion came shortly before .
o'clock. A small band of insurrectos
clept into town along the railroad
track, and was not discovered until a
terrific explosion rocked the whole city
and blew portion of the federal bar
racks, in the center of the city, high
III the air. There was a wild panic
throughout the city, which Navarro
was unable to check. Only by posting
heavy guard of soldiers on the bridge
did the authorities prevent a general
evacuation Of the city by its inhablt-
ants.
Before the federal troops could be re-
organized and rushed to the outskirts
of the city all the insurgents but two
had fled. These two were shot down
and wounded by the federals and taken
prisoners. It is expected that they will
be Summarily shot.

This telegram was received by The
Times today in reply to an inquiry as to
the truth of a report brought to Eagle
Pass, Texas that the coal miners of
Coahuila had struck and Joined the
revolutionists.
According TO the report 10000 men
were ready to take the field.
This report was Immediately followed
by another that there was to be mo-
bilization of United States troops at
Eagle Pass to invade the state of Goa

The dispatch received by The Times
comes from the leading coal operator of
that state who is interested in mines
employing fully half OF all the coal min
Prs in the territory contrit uting TO
Ciudad Porforio Diaz, Monterey, and

Saw Chained Rebels
Shot Without a Trial
By Mexican Soldiers

BOSTON, Mass, March 16.-Captain
Hudson, of the steamship Pillar de Lar
rinaga, IN from South American and
Mexican ports, says he saw rebels shot
down like dogs by Mexican soldiers at
Vera Cruz. ..-.-- "a. .... -
I'VE were In port at Vera Cruz some
thing more than a month ago." said
Captain Hudson. "One morning saw
captain and a squad of soldiers with
nine insurrectos The rebels were chain
ed to gether and being led to trial.
There was scant mercy shown the men
and nothing like consideration or cour-
tesy. The captain ordered his men to a
double quick and could hear the heavy
chains which bound the men together
clanking dismally as the helpless fel-
lows trotted along.
Two of the Insurrectos began to lag
under the heavy chains. The soldiers
prodded them wifi their bayonets, and
finally, when the men still stumbled and
began to hold the others back, they were
shot down under orders of the captain
of the squad.
THE magistrate, I learned, refused to
try the seven insurrectos brought be-
fore him and ordered that they be taken
to the judge in an adjoining province.

most important recent happenings in
connection with the situation. Senor
/ Limantour had not been expected to re-
! turn so early. 1t is believed here that
he has heen acquainted with the de-
mandS on which the insurrectionists
will insist, and that he goes back TO
Mexico CITY to acquaint the Diaz gov
ernment with the terms that must be
made If there is to be a settlement OF
the revolution.
The return of Secretary of War Dick
inson today gave added interest to the
situation at the War Department. Sec
retary Dickinson has given UP his Pana-
ma trip indefinitely and will sit on the
lid until the war clouds seem less low
ering.
Onlfnous signs of trouble are still ap-
parent in the situation iE Mexico with
respect to captured Americans. The
Mexican government is showing a dis
position to subject them to rigorous
treatment.
As to Rlatt and Converse, the two
americans captured and in jail at Jua-
rez, the Mexi an government thus far
refuses to recede an inch from its posi-
ton. II insists the two young men
We're captured on Mexican soil. This is
squarely at issue with the facts as re-
ported to the State Department here
from all directions. Ordinarily the mat
ter would lend itself easily to adjust
ment, but in view of the strained rela-
tions between Mexico and the United
States just now 1t Is a cause for seri-
GUS irritation.
An official statement at Juarez is to
the effect that Americans now captured
and in Jail in Mexico will not be shot
They will have trials in the civil courts
on charges Of sedition. But ii is stated
the same consideration will not be given
to foreigners captured hereafter This
il intended as a warning to Americans
who SympatfiZe with the revolutionists.
II is construed here as a threat to shoot
SUmmarilv Americans who may be
taken prisoners in the future Any such
policy will be calculated to stir up in
tense feeling in the United States.
While this official intlmatiOn is given
ont that Americans captured. hereafter,
are likely to lose their lives, the MCXi-
can government has finally decided to
declare what amounts to martial law.
The measure TO suspend the ?Onstitu
tional guarantees has been passed by
the permanent commission of the MeNi-
can congress. President Diaz will pro-
mulgate the notices of suspension.
A plan to divide the big estates for
the benefit of the people is talked of
It is the suggestion of Minister of FL
nance Iimantour.
Just how far the American Govern
ment will let the Diaz government go
on trying Intellectually to cope with the
insurrection is a matter of discussion
here. Senator Burton of Ohio hos
thrown an interesting light on this. He
is quoted as saying the United States
may form protectorate in Mexico
similar to the one in Cuba, if conditions
are not improved speedily. He says
that when the rebels take Chihuahua
in northern Mexico the United States
will intervene to prevent anarchy, and
will then seek to restore order, ard
play the part of policeman just as il
did in Cuba. Senator Burton SAYS this
country will not seek the conquest OIL

Mexico Permitted To
Ship Medical Supplies
Through United States

Ell PASO, March 16.-The Mexican
federal government received permission
today to route medical and surgical
supplies through the United States. The
supplies were sent into Mexico and south
to Casas Grandes by wagon train. Many
wounded are reported in the federal
ranks at Casas Grandes.
The twenty-one Americans arrested
south of here last week, when a battle
was fought at San Francisco ranch near
Fabens, Tex, were released today by
United States Commissioner Oliver.
They admitted having been with the
insurrectos, but said they were quitting
the fight and coming back home. One
insurrecto testified that 'the Mexican
insurrectos were always in the front
ranks when 1t was meal time, but they
give the Americans the position Of
honor when 1t comes to the fight. Back
to the Bowery for mine
1t has developed that the John Greer
killed at the battle of Casas Grandes
was a cousin Of the woman who was
attacked by Antonio Rodriguez at Rock
Springs, Tex, several months ago, re-
sulting in the lynching Of the Mexican
and nearly in a rupture between the
United States, the State of Texas and
the republic Of Mexico.
