in many class d teams. is running
out a hit to first. Often man

instances n single might be stretch

makes a bobble. Ii the runner is
getting down with all his might a
slight bobble might mean that he
could get an extra base and thus be
in position TO win a game, Ii he is

no chance to stretch the hit, because

Rebels Cut FederaIs to Pleces.

Juarez, Mexico-Of the Twentieth
Mexican infantry only thirty-five men
are still alive. OF the Twenty-ninth
Mexican infantry there are only fifty
survivors. Only three line officers in
both regiments remain.
After the battle of Jiminez, when
Orozco's rebels routed the federals in
a bloody conflict, only these officers
and a handful of men struggled back
to Torreon-the broken remnant of
two of the best regiments in the Mexi-
can army which Madero had hurled
against the triumphant insurrectos.
This information, the first definite
news that has been received from
the scene of the slaughter of the Ma
derista army in the four-day battle
near Jiminez, was brought here by
a miner who made his way through
the rebel ranks by automobile to the
railroad after the frightful blood-let.

A series of rumors concerning the
Mexican situation, covering every pos
sible phase of activity on the part OF
the American government, from actual
Intervention and assemblage of great
military forces on the border, down to
the dispatch of an embassy guard to
the Mexican capital is surging through
official Washington. President Taft
believes there is no ground for inter
vention in Mexico and has not changed
that belief as the result of the military
engagements in Mexico within the last
few days. Consequently no steps have
been taken within that time to
strengthen the American military
force on the border. nor to prepare
any expeditionary force for operation
in Mexican territory. The supposition
that anything of Importance could be
done IN that direction without some
knowledge an the part of the country
at large and direct appeal to Con-
gress is declared by the military au-
thorities to be absurd.

Washington.-Acc to advices
from Toxic, Japan has secured from
Mexico the long-sought concession of
naval base at Magdalena bay, on
| Mexican soil. The Monroe Doctrine is
thus violated. Washington believes
Japan has agreed, in return for the
concession, to support the Mexican
government with men and money.
Japanese have long been accredited
with preparing for war with the
United States. Intervention of the
United States in the Mexican revolu-
tion now seems necessary, and such
Intervention would give Mexico ex-
cuse for appealing to Japan for the
help that Nippon would be glad to
give against the United States.
Americans in Mexico are regarded at
Washington as in desperate straits.
They may yet be crushed by allied
Mexicans and Japanese.
If United States troops should start
south, those allies may cross the Rio
Grande. The Magdalena deal prob
ably explains the recent doubling OF
United States naval strength on the
Pacific, for which Washington has not
given any satisfactory reason, and
also the request made recently that
all steamers from United States ports
to Mexican ports should be held IN
readiness for any service that the
war and navy departments might ask.

Despite the state departments
formal declaration that it has "abso-
lutely no information on the report
that Japan has secured a naval base
at Magdalena bay. Mexico. it is
lieved here that news of the move
reaching here several days ago, has
been a fruitful source of the anxiety
plainly admitted by the state depart
ment officials as to the Mexican situ-
alton.
The Japanese victory was made
public in the following dispatch from
Toxic:
1T is reported here Tin Tokio) that
negotiations between Mexico and
Japan were concluded few days ago
for the establishment of large Jap
anese settlement at Magdalena bay.
but an American protest based on the
Monroe Doctrine is expected"
One year ago the American consul
at Manzanillo reported to the depart
ment that Japan was endeavoring to
obtain naval base ostensibly for her
merchant vessels. Publicity and
prompt hints from the administration
that such a move would be regarded
as violation Of the Monroe Doctrine
led to official denials from the Japan
ese ambassador here. Ever since
that date the United States has kept
close watch on every move toward the
granting of such base to Japan.
While the administration has here
tofore denied that Japan's negotiations
were successful, it is considered sig
nificant that the latest report merely
met with the statement that there
was no information on the subject"
