POLICY OF U. S. NOT CHANGED.
Attack on Americans or Foreigners
Would Cause Intervention.

Would Cause Intervention.
Washington, Feb 4.-The killing Of
Francisco l. Madero and Pine Suarez,
deposed president and vice praSident
of Mexico, after Provisional Pfegfdent
General Huerta had assured American
Ambassador Wilson of the safety of
his prisoners from just such attacks.
created painful impression in ad-
ministration circles here.
Probably the immediate result will
be to hasten the military and naval
preparations in order to have the SOL
diers and sailors and marines ready
to answer call for instant emb,irka-
tion II further developments in Mexico
should demand their employment.
The one danger to be apprehended,
which almost certainly would result
in the launching of an army of inva-
sion, would be the commission of
some act or acts in Mexico that would
endanger the lives of foreign citizens
and Americans, for, having assured
the diplomatic representatives in
Washington of the disposition and
ability of this government to protect
their fellowcitizens in Mexico in the
same degree as Americans, the gov
ernment has assumed an obligation
that cannot be ignored. Therefore
any attack upon the Americans or
foreigners by the tacit consent of the
Huerta government. or even the ex-
hibition towards them of mob violence
clearly beyond the ability of the pro-
visional government to prevent, prob.
ably would be the signal for active in
tervention.

providing for the notification of the
