MARINES HELD
READY TO MOVE
Continued from Page Ono.

Mexico ordering them to make II clear
that the policy of the United States re-
mains unchanged. and that such reports
are quite erroneous.
Many consuls in Mexico have reported
in the last few days that the false re-
ports about intervention from the United
States were having a very dangerous ef-
feet. In many cases, il was stated that
the more ignorant classes had been
given to understand that actual military
Intervention had already been begun by
the United States.
That several members of the Cabinet
have advocated the most vigorous meas
ures with regard to the Mexican situa-
ton was learned here last night. At
least three, it is known. werc in favor
of landing marines and bluejackets from
the battleships Georgia, Nebraska. and
Vermont as soon as they arrived at
Vera Cruz. and sending them to Mexico
City to protect the legations there. They
also urged the sending OF additional ma
railroad from that port to the capital
in order to provide Americans and other
foreigners with means of egress from
Mexico City.
President Taft. however, opposed the
adoption of such drastic measures at
this time. and the majority of the Cabi-
net coincided with his views Secretary
of State Knox. it is known. advocted
a more conservative course. and urged
that the administration move slowly
pending further developments in the situ-

ASK FOR DOCUMENTS
ON MEXICAN SITUATION

Resolutions were introduced in Con-
Eress yesterday calling upon the ad-
ministration TO furnish copies of all doc
uments and notes that have been re-
ceived by II in regard to conditions in
Mexico The eenral impression in Wash
ington is that the influence of n certain
publisher who is urging action by the
Taft administration is behind these reso-
lutions. Senator Ashurst of Arizona and
Representative Ayres of New York intros
duced the resolutions.
There is no disposition on the part OF
Congress leaders to interfere with the
course mapped out by the administration.
AS a matter of fact. the opinion is shared
by both Republicans and Democrats that
the Exc ;utive has shown wisdom in
the treatment of affairs in Mexico. Con-
siderable pressure has been brought to
bear on both the administration and
members of Congress with a view to
furcing the administration to intervene.
Thousands of people throughout the
United States have money invested In
Mexico. and all interested are greatly
concerned over the present resolution
and Its probable consequences. Sena-
tor Ashurst has been importuned by
citizens of Arizona to bring affairs in
Mexico to a head, even at the cost Of
Intervention.
In Mr. Ayers district there reside
many persons who have made invest
ments in the Southern republic The
Senator and the New York Representa-
tive held a conference yesterday, and
each introduced a resolution designed
to throw light on the conditions in
Mexico. The Ashurst resolution recites
that a revolution has taken place in
Mexico; that great disorder prevails
in that country, and that the life and
property of Americans are menaced.
1t calls upon the President to submit
to Congress all information in his pos
session relative to conditions in the
City Of Mexico"
The Ayres resolution is drafted along
the same lines. 1t has been referred to
the Committee on Foreign Affairs,
which has before it other like meas
ures dealing with conditions in Mexico.
