AMERICANS IN MEXICO
OPPOSE INTERVENTION
Maj. F. R. Burnham, U. S. A.,
Retired, Reflects Views of
Ranch Owners.

That the feeling among Americans IN
Mexico is against Intervention, and that
they are optimistic as to the outcome OF
the revolution. was the assertion today OF
Maj. F. r. Durham, U. 8. A., retired
Maj. Burnham is the owner Of the Es-
peranza ranch in Sonora, Mexico. He Is
here visiting John Hays Hammond at 231i
Massachusetts avenue. The American
colony from which Maj. Burnham comes
Is composed for the most part of gradu.
ates of Yale. Harvard and other uni.
versit.es. Among the Washinstonian ms
who are there are L. H. Taylor, formerly
Of the United States reclamation service
and w. w. Mackey- formerly Of the De-
partment Of Agriculture.
Maj. Burnham's Views.
Il have Just returned" said Maj. Burn
ham. from what is probably the largest
American colony in Mexico. a farming
and irrigation community Of 200 settlers
who have thus far maintained them
selves without taking sides with either OF
the political parties. Lately the situation
seems to have turned rapidly for the
worse on account OF the appearance of q
band Of ferocious Yaqui Indians. who
are armed to the teeth and raiding the
country as they see At.
During the revolutions these Indians
| took sides. and as a result are armed
with the most modern rifles and are
equipped with unlimited ammunition.
Their presence in our communicated
there are lots. Of them there's causing
great unrest among the settlers, who are
in deadly peril of being wiped of the
| map at any moment. In addition to this
| menace. bandits are attacking the rail-
| road trains. and within the last few days
have, killed several persons. lost the
| superintendent Of my ranch, who was
killed by bandits. He was Frank Lesher,
| a Washingtonian.
Oppose Intervention.
However, the feeling among the Amer
leans In Mexico is against Intervention.
Their strong desire is to protect them
selves and continue the development of
their farms in this rich valley. where al
ready they are producing and have grow
ing now a half million dollars worth of
crops. So far they have trusted to the
Mexican authorities to give them ample
protection. The present governor and his
stan of officials are very friendly to the
whole American settlement
Throughout the first revolution we
| were treated equally well by the Diaz and
Madero governments, but it certainly
looks at this day as though we might be
governed by a few hundred savages. This
will mean much trouble and possibly
bloodshed."

KA|SER|N NEAR
DEATH, |SFEAR
All Germany Alarmed by Her
Condition-KaiSer Faithful
Nurse to ConSort.

BERLIN, Aug. 2S.-The condition of
The kaiserin causes real anxiety, &C
cording to advices from inner court cir
Giles. She is constantly ailing. Her
complaints vary, but all show general
state of weakness.
Throughout her recent indisposition
the kaiser has been tender nurse. re-
vealing a new and soft side of his
chameleonlike character The sight of
the worlds greatest warlord sitting by
his wife's bedside ministering to her
petty wants and soothing her in her
hour of sickness, has been very touch
ing.
The sickness of the empress has re-
minded the country Of the vast wom-
anly influence she has welded behind
the scenes. The intensely Puritan at
mosphere of the imperial German court
is the result of her own pure tastes In
politics she has always advised her
impetuous husband to be cautious and
moderate; conciliatory and yielding to-
ward his subjects, rather than despot-
ic; peaceful rather than warlike.
General NonWeber has sent a conf
dental report to the kaiser. regarding
his Youngest son, Prince Oscar, who is
serving under the generals command
at the Temperhof infantry barracks in
Berlin. 1t seems that the prince. who
is p years old. does not take military
duty seriously enough and the general
in his report goes so far as to declare
his conduct in neglecting his work for
the sake of the charms Of Berlin society
sets deplorable example to other
young officers of his regiment.
The kaiser. who is now residing at
WiiheImsohe, wired the general, thank
ing him for drawing his attention to
his sons shortcomings and promising
to lecture the prince.
1t would be consistent with the
kaiseTs character of a Spartan father
II he gave Prince Oscar his choice of
either attending to duty at home or
serving Il year in Germany's African
colony.
