PRESIDENT TAFT AND HIS CAB
INET ANNOUNCE THEY WILL
PROCEED WITH CARE

Washington, Feb. 12.-The first bri
gade Of the First army division, mum
herring 5000 men, are on their arms
ready to entrain at moments notice
for Newport News, to board transports
for Mexico.
Twenty-Five hundred marines from
the Atlantic fleet and the Guantanamo

aegsd, as they ARR at Peking -Four
dreadnoughts Of the battleship fleet
are steaning at top steed to Tampico
and Vera Cruz, and two other war
ships are rushing on the Pacific side
to Mexican ports to afford refugees to
Americans and other foreigners.
President Taft and the cabinet are
firm in their determination not to
land an American soldier in Mexico
unless the most dire necessity forces
it. These are the developments Of
the day in the attitude of the United
States toward the neyest revolution
in Mexico.
American Troops Ready to Move
Preparations have been made to
move approximately $500 marines
from the ships of the Atlantic fleet
and the Guantanamo naval station to
Vera Cruz. to be held in readiness
there for landing in case it should be
necessary to relieve the foreign lega-
tons in Mexico City.
The first brigade Of the First divi-
vision OF the army. about 5000 strong,
has been ordered prepared for eexpe-
dictionary service" 1t is composed OF
the Third infantry at Madison Bar
racks and oswego, the Fifth infantry
at Plattsburg and the Twenty-ninth
infantry at Fort Nigaraga, all in New
York.
This organization has Just been
brought into existence as part Of the
scheme Of army reorganization and
its responsiveness to the call for for
eign service may be regarded as a
first practical test Of the value Of tls
Iuew system
The first brigade will entrain for
Newport News, Va. only in the event
that the preparatory orders issued
this morning are followed by others
setting the troops in motion. Within
the "a hours after such an order, \

ING THE CITY

Mexico City, Feb. 12.-The federal
troops re-opened the battle in the
streets of the Mexican capital at
6:35 o'clock this morning with a light
artillery fire. The action soon be-
came general, all the artillery on
both sides being brought into play
The cannon fire was augmented by
sweeping salvos from the machine
guns. while the infantry came into
action wizh alIIeYs ara individual
shooting
The Mutual Life Insurance build
ing was set on fire at O'Clock by
a shell from a rebel field gun. II is
a four story structure on the cor
ner Of Cinco Mayo and San Juan de
Latron streets. The rebels under
Felix Diaz started to advance toward
the national palace at quarter to
nine.
The rebels seemingly are employ
ing heavier cannon than they did
yesterday. They directed their fire
toward the national palace and on
the higher buildings in the center OF
the business district, on many OF
which federal machine guns are
mounted and federal riftsmen are
posted.
The suggestion of the foreign dip
lomats that neutral zone be estab-
lished is considered unfeasible by
the government, which points out
that it is impossible to foretell in
which direction the action may be
shifted. In reality, on account OF
the long range of the cannon used,
there is no place in the city which
can be said to. be safe.
The contending rebels AMI federal
forces occupied the same positions
this morning as at tne beginning oi
the fighting yesterday An effort
made by the federals to isolate the
rebels from their water supply was
ineffective, because there a number

According to reports from the reb

hours in further fortifying the po

even yesterday had proved strong
enough to withstand rne attacks
made by the government troops. The
federal force was strengthened dur

Babe" Adams, then practically an
unknown, twirled three straight vic
tories for Pittsburg over Detroit in
1909, winning the worlds series for
the Pirates. The youngsters per-
Torrance was sensational in the ex-
treme. He yielded only eighteen hits
in the three conflicts, struck out
eleven smuggling Tigers, and walked
only six batsmen.
Coombs Wins Three Straight.
Jack Coombs, of the Athletics,
equaled Adams record Of winning
three straight in the 1910 series, but
he was lucky. Although he beat the
Cubs every time he tOiled against
them, Chances men slammed COMBS
offerings viciously. Nothing but su-
perb support and the ability of the
Mackmen to make plenty OF runs
enabled Coombs to survive thIee vic
tories in succession.
That stole redskin, Chief Bender
was the premier twirler of the 1911
series between the Giants and Ath-
letics. He contributed two triumphs
to the Athletic cause. He lost one
game, though. He gave sixteen hits
in the trio Of encounters.

That is the reason why Frank Is
bell better known as the Bald Ea-

champion White Sox team, may re-
tire.
He announced that the hustling
fight in the Western League was
aging him rapidly and that he was
seriously thinking of relinquishing
the reins to someone else next sea-
son.
Isbell has been playing baseball for
twenty years. He parted company
with Charles Comiskey White Sox

ed an interest in the Wichita club. He
later sold out, and two years ago
came to Des Moines as president and

1t would not be amazing now If the
Reds, who were in last place for half
the season, should wind up at the
head of the second division.

TRANK CHANCE is spending
money like water to build up
his lowly Yankees. Maisel, his
new third baseman, cost the Yanks
$4,000 and Count MidIdff and Bert
Daniels. But Chance thinks he made
a good business deal
Il paid $4,000 for Maisel because
he is worth twelve 1000 a year bali
players. l would rather have five
$1,000 a year players than so $1,000
a year men. The high priced man
usually plays major league ball"
In this statement the former boss
of the Chicago Cubs sums up what is

more contemplated purchases. he eX-
poets big things of the Yankees next
year. 1t is said that he will prac-

an effort to put a pennant contender
in the field. He is pleased with the

the men the Peerless Leader" has
already let go.
John MCGraw also believes in pay
ing big salaries for high class play
ers. When he paid $1,000 to the
indianapolis club, of the American
Association, for Rube Marquard and
$4,000 to the St. Paul club for Chief
Meyers there were many baseball
men who thought that the Giants had
paid too much for men from the
minor leagues. But the work of the
pair since they Joined the Giants has
more than borne out the judgment of
the Little Napoleon. They have help
ed the Giants to pennantS and have
beep worth their weight in gold to the
team.
Now, Frank Farrell, the owner OF
the Yankees. is apparently adopting
similar course. He is paying Chance
one of the biggest salaries ever drawn
by baseball manager, and the Peer
less Leader is determined TO give
New York good team in the Amer
lean League. This year he has had
much to contend with. team to re-
model practically and a new league
