Conclusion is Reached That Nothing Remains To Be Done at This Time to Safeguard American In- tereStS in Mexico
SOME BELIEVE

Believe There is Undcrcur- rent Which May Develop Into Another Revolution Unless Hucrta Gives Ma dcl.iStS Positions

70 WASHINGTON. Feb 25.-The ad- miniStration is taking much more hopeful view of the outlook in MeNi- co. This was reflected in d cabi Let meeting today when all the re Wilson and the American consuls in various parts of Mexico were re- ceived and discussed. The conclusion was reached that nothing remains to be done at this time to safeguard American interests in Mexico, in view Of the excellent disposition professcd towards Americans by the Huerta government.
 The only threat of serious trouble came from the consul in Ciudad Porfirio Diaz, who reported that Col Jesus Carranga, brother Of the gov ernOr of Coahuila. arrived today in that town with an armed band of two hundred men with the intention of establishing headquarters in the city of Monclovo. It is strongly sus- pected. however. that the apparently helIicose attitude of some of the Ma dero governors and other officials as well as that of d number of rebel leaders has been assumed in tn" hope of inducing the new admins traitor to provide them with remun- erative offices
 The attitude of the revolutiOnists in the Durango district towards the Huerta regime remains problemau- cal. band of sixty-eight bandits sacked and partially burned the prop crty of the American Securities com panv near Nilardena Sunday night and the American manager who was attacked and beaten saved his life only by the payment of five hundred Mexican dollars to his assaiiants,
 The consul at Durango further re- ports that two hundred volunteers deserted from TOrreon garrison and will presumably fight against the new government. He says the bridges of the Mexican railroad were burned north and south of Torreon. between that city and Saltillo.
 Although there is some increase oi brigandage around san Luis Potosi the railroads are operating south and east of that section Hermosillo rr- mains quiet except for the excite ment attending the sensational ru- i mors that have reached the capital.
 The war departments reports re l lated today principally to the eX- tensive movements of troops towar, i Galveston under the recent concen- tration orders.

 the river near Brownsville which le' l to a threat of q threat of a TeNa invasion, and reported to the wa department that apprehension | | groundless Altogether the outlook | decidedly peaceful.

LIVE STOCK
 INSPECTION FEE BILL UP
Senator Harrison $ Bill h. creasing Rate of lnspec- ton of Cattle Passes Through Committee of Whole in House

It was pretty clearly indicated yes terday afternoon during the sessions of the house that the Harrison bill from the senate raising the inspection fees on live stock. except sheep and goats; from five cents to ten cents per head will pass the house by a good sized majority. The bill came up in the com mittee of the whole called especially for that purpose on motion of Repre-
 sentative George J. Cooke of Maricopa county. chairman of the committee on live stock MT. Cooke explained that it was very essential for the interests of the cattlemen of the state. and for the support of the live stock sanitary board that the bill be passed at once in order that the present deficit in the l boards treasury should not get any larger The cattlemen he said had en- dorsed the bill, it was a special tax on their industry for the protection of ] their industry which they had agreed ] to.
 1 Maddocil opposed the emergency portion of the bill on the ground that l he was opposed to all emergency measures as he believed they violated 1 the spirit of the constitution. He l thought his people in Coconino county Were of the opinion they could get l along without the emergency clause on | the bill
 Bradner explained that the emer- gency clause was placed on the bill in
 order that it might go into immediate
 effect. and thus the raise in fees for l inspection would take effect upon the spring shipments of cattle with the
 result that the income of the live stock sanitary board would not show defi- cit at the close of the fiscal year, but l unless the bill did not go into effect at once the deficit as shown in the re- l port. which was made on an estipate
 of what the board needed up to the enc of the present fiscal year. The live
 stock inspectors had been put upon :
 permanent basis and it was desired tC
 keep them upon that basis. About one
 third of the cattle shipments and in.
 Spections are made in the spring anC they would shortly begin.
 Saxon said there was no need to wa
 until May. which would be the case i
 the emergency were placed on the bill before the income started to come int
 the cattle sanitary board. If the sprin: shipments were allowed to be mad Iprior to the effectiveness of the rais in inspection rates that much none, ; would be lost, and could never be got ten back As a matter of fact ther are very few shipments made afte May until the fall.

Report Is Denied

LAREDO, Feb. 25-A telegram re- ceived here tonight from Monterey denies that Emilio Madero was shot near that city as reported in dis patch from Mexico City. Everything is quiet in the vicinity of Monterey, according to the dispatch
 Hope of immediate peace in MeXi- co is slight The rebel activity in the north has increased and the gov ernments efforts to enter into ar engagements with the ZapatiStas ap- pear to have failed.
 Whether the rebels. who center in tse State of Coahuila, have increased numerically is not known. but they have so conducted their operations already that communication with the frontier is stopped and that region between Laredo and san Luis Potosi is prac tically isolated.
 In the south the Zapatistas con tinue their burning and raiding. An attack on q military train between Ozumba and Mexico leaves little doubt as to their attitude toward the new administration. The attack was the ordinary ambush type. Tn" train was stopped by burning q bridge and the fighting continued for more than two hours.
 One of the demands of the Zapa- tista officers be admitted as q regu- lar establishment with corresponding rank. some having assumed the title of general The government has strongly objected. The government later received word that the revolu- tion is still in progress.
 Huerta has sent forces southWard toward Cuernavaca, along the line of the Central Railway, portion oi which destroyed by the rebels is to be rebuilt
 Reports from the State of Morelo' indicate the work of destruction dur ing the last twenty-four hours is more complete than ordinarily un- dertaken by the rebels.
 To offset the antagonism of the Zapatistas. however the government believes that there will be no diffi- cuIty in concluding the arrangements for peace with Juan Andrew AL mazan and Julio Radillo two of th' most prominent leaders of the State of Guerrero Nor is much doubt felt that arrangements will be made with the representatives of Orozco'' army.
 The official closing of the Port O Laredo first was the public intima- ton here that the government re garded the rebels to the north a. merely unfriendly to the new regime It had been stated officially tha Venustiano Carranza, governor 0 Coahuila had decided to abandon hl antagonistic attitude. but the hope o this has generally diminished witt the cutting of the National railWa. between San Luis Potosi and Saltll To and between San Luis and Tam pico which indicates that the govern ment has much work to do befor it will suhjugate the rebels.
