Huerta will not be allowed to
usurp the constitui lon of Mexico aud
assume the Office of president Of that
republic in the event that his election
is accomplished next Sunday and the
United States win absolutely not
brook any interference In the affairs
of that country by any outside nation.
This much has practically been decid-
ed upon in Washington and the gov
eminent is now preparing an ultima
tum serving notice upon the world
that any interference by any nation
In the affairs of Mexico will be looked
upon as an unfriendly act to the
United States and in defiance of the
Monroe Doctrine. The doctrine Is
to be enforced at any cost. The first
outbreak in Mexico will be the signal
for United States Intervention

States is now preparing this ultima
tum shows the gravity Of the situa-
ton in Mexico and to many indicates
that the United States is closer to
war tonight than for any time within
the past dozen years. The invoking
OF the Monroe Doctrine confirms the
reports received within the past week

years for burglary.
The convicts were gathering grapes
in the vineyard and succeeded in sur
rounding Morse before he realized
their plot. The, officer put up fight
. but was numerically beaten down by
he three men in stripes. As he lay
on the ground one OF the trio covered
him with his own rife and holding at
bay those who had witnessed the at
