REBELS SEIZE CATTLE
ON TEXAS SOIL

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Feb. 2S.-
Boldly crossing the boundary, Mexi-
can rebels today changed the theater
of action from Mexico to Texas by
raidlng the Wilson cattle ranch near
Alpine, where they stole cattle and
engaged in a battle with the posse
that pursued them?
The marauders were overtaken
and in the fierce fighting that fol-
lowed, four of the invaders were
killed and Charles Tuttle, an Amer
ican, was wounded.
Badly beaten, the Mexicans cross
ed the Rio Grande river at a point
where the water Is shallow and es-
capped into Mexico. Intense excite
ment prevails along the border to-
day as result OF this and other
clashes between American cowboys
and Mexican rebels. Heavily armed
American posses are patrolling the
international line and are prepared
to fire on any Mexican marauders
that attempt to cross into Texas.
Routing the Mexican besiegers, a
strong band of American cowboys
after hard ride reached the Nelson
Morris ranch across the Texas line
In Mexico, near Sierra Blanca last
night and rescued the hard pressed
defenders.
Pasquale Brown, manager Of the
ranch, according to reports received
here today, was wounded and two
friendly Mexlcans who aided In the
defense of the ranch were killed.
Ell PASO, Feb. 2S.--Wild with
enthusiasm following their taking Of
Juarez, the rebels today are massIng
In and around the captured city,
preparatory to a march against Chi
huahua, capital of Chihuahua state,
which was begun this evening.
General Campas' victorious rebels
were Joined here today by Colonel
Rejas with 500 men, swelling the In
surrecto army here to fully 1000
men.
A tense situation prevails in FL
Paso. II Is feared that the rebels
may at any time cause international
by firing stray shots
across the Rio Grande into I'll Paso,
or that bands of marauders from
their camps at Juarez may cross the
line and attack the public utility
plants here. These are all well
guarded by a strong force of the
Texas national guard.
The situation IN Juarez itself
seemed somewhat improved today.
Street cars are running again, and q
of Americans, despite warn
lngs, crossed the line and visited the

ROOSEVELT AGREES no
ACCEPT NOMINATION.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Active
work of lining up delegates favorable
to the candidacy of Theodore Roose-
welt for the republican presidential
nomination began in earnest here to-
day.
The letter of the former president
to group of western governors, In
which he said he would accept the
nomination for president had hardly
cooled before Roosevelt headquarters
in the Metropolitan building had
been established.
oliver Carpenter, a close friend Of
former secretary to the president,
George B. Cortelyou, and admittedly
one of the shrewiest politicians In
New York state, will be in active
charge.
Colonel Roosevelt is due to arrive
here Wednesday, when his friends
expect him to begin a personal cam
paign for the nomination. First, 1t
is said, the former president will go
to Phoenix, Arizy where his son,
Archie Roosevelt, is studying.
Colonel Roosevelt, 1t is believed
will make several speeches enroute,
explaining further his position on the
recall of the judiciary rather than the
recall of the judge making the de-
clslon.
While New York will be the real
headquarters, a branch office will be
established in Chicago and one may
also be opened later in San Fran
cisco.
CHICAGO, Feb. 26.-That Presi-
dent Taft, despite Colonel Roosevelt's
openly entering the contest, would be
certain of denomination and re-elec-
tion, was the emphatic declaration
here of Congressman Mckinley OF
Illinois. Mckinley said today:
81 have not a word OF criticism to
make of Roosevelt. He has been an
irreproachable republican and he
will abide by the decision of the
party. But | am certain that Taft
ill be renominated and reelected"
