SPECIAL SESSION TALKED OF
Congress May be Called Togeth-
or by Executive to Deal
With Developments
MAY SEND ARMY ACROSS LINE

Washington. Sept. s.-Intervention
in Mexico and the possibility of Pres
ident Taft calling a special session of
congress to determine whether Ameri-
can troops should cross the line were
widely discussed here today by pub
lie men and in diplomatic circles.
II is known that the government has
been pressed on many sides TO make
such a step and various accounts et
what influences were being brought
to bear and the object sought to be
accomplished are related among those
interested on both sides.
President Taft and the state depart
ment. however. are holding TO the
principle that no such action should
be taken without the authorization OF
congress That American soldiers have
been sent into China or that American
naval forces are now actively engaged
in Nicaragua without authorization OF
Congress is held not precedent for
sending troops TO Mexico. In China,
American missionaries were besieged
and in danger of torture and death.
In Nicaragua, the rebels had sheIied
the American legation and endangered
the lives of American citizens by bonn
harding an unfortiied city i'm violation
60 the rules of international law. No
such situation has been reported in
Mexico.
Captain S. G. Hopkins. who was the
legal adviser to the Madro revolution
when it overthrew Diaz today likened
the situation in Mexico TO that in the
United States from 1861 TO 1865 when
this government was resentful of the
prospective interference OF Great Bril-
tian and France. The Madero govern
ment. he declared, was amenable for
damages under international law for
injuries to Americans of their prop
erty while disposing of it's own civil
war.
subduine Rebels Hard Task.
The news that President Taft con-
sidered the situation a grave one and
has given thought TO the matter of
putting it up to congress is expected 10
bring out the usual crop of reports OF
troops under orders 10 move and OF
plans completed BY the general staff
OF the army for campaigning in Mex
leo. While they are apprehensive of
the situation army officers hope there
will be no Intervention They say a
campaign against Mexican rebels
would be a close parallel TO the chase
after Aguinaldo, a campaign which
could not be ended i'm less than two
years and which would have results
beyond accurate predictions.
Yesterday President Taft ordered
two full regiments of cavalry 10 the
border line and it was stated that the
Madero government contemplated ask
ing the permission OF the United
states to transport its loyal troops
through Texas and New Mexico to at
tack the scattered bands of maraud-
ing rebels that. sallying across the
line were attacking American ranch
cs and stealing cattle.
Rebels May Raid Ranches.
Washington, Sept 9.-Dispatches to
the war department today report that
Salazar. one Of the Mexican rebel
leaders is camped across the Arizc-
ma lire, opposite the Lang ranch. and
is threatening raid into American
