to withdraw to Vera Cruz. where they
would be under the protection of the war

sides undoubtedly would interpose no
obstacle to the departure of the foreign
population and would give them safe con-

It is hoped in official circles here that
such a precaution may be made unneces-
sary, either by the arrangement of
truce between the combatants through
the offices Of such men as Senior de la
Barra or by a conclusive victory by one
side or the other that would leave the

met WEIGHT" MEASURE
APPROVED IN SENATE
Committee Amends and Reports Fa-
vorably House Addition to
Pure Food Law.

The met weight" bill. which has pass
ed the House, was given approval to-
day by the Senate committee on manu-
features and the measure will be report
ed to the Senate with the committees
recommendation that IT be passed.
In general. the bill amends the pure
food law making it mandatory upon
manufacturers and vendors of foods to
package on the outside in terms OF
weight. measure or numerical count
Amendments Recommended.
Two important amendments to the bill,
however, are recommended by the Sem
ate committee One takes packages thai
sell for i cents or less out of the pro-
visions Of tn proposed law. and the
other makes more strict the reasonable
variations" feature of the bill.
Over the reasonable variations" fea-
ture there has been a brisk fight at hear
ings before the committee AS the bill
was passed by the House, provision was
inserted specifically allowing reasonable
variations This provision the Senate
committee has stricken out. and in it's
place there has been substituted pro-
vision allowing the Department OF Agri-
culture to make rules and regulations
for reasonable variations and requiring
the department to make record of all
variations allowed.
Request Partially Approved.
The exemption of small packages was
specially asked by candy makers, and
the committee agreed to meet their re-
ouest i'm part. But the law is designed
to cover packages Of breakfast food. and
the committee fixed the limitation for ex-
empted packages at cents instead Of
10 cents, as requested by the candy men.

Soldiers and Marines
Ordered Prepared for
Expeditionary Service

The first brigade of the first division
army. about 1900 strong, has been or
dered prepared for "expeditionary
service"
Preparat tons have been made to move
approximately $50 marines from the
ships of the Atlantic fleet and the Guam
tanamo naval station to Vera Cruz, TO be
held in readiness there for landing in
case it should be necessary to relieve
the foreign legations in Mexico City.
Although it was nearly daylight before
Mai. Cen Wood left the War Depart
ment this morning. he was back in his
Office at quarter to . o'clock, before
the department had opened for business.
and within an hour the orders had been
issued.
First Test of New System.
The list Brigade Of the 1st Division
army is composed of the I'd Infantry. at
Madison barracks and Oswego: the 9Th
Infantry, at Plattsburg barracks, and the
Goth Infantry, at Fort Niagara. all with
in the limits of the state of New York
That organization has just been brought
in-p existence as part of the scheme OF
army reorganization, and It's responsive
ness to the call for foreign service may be
regarded as first practical test Of the
value of the new system.
With the auxiliaries to be added in the
way of signal men. Hospital Corps and
perhaps some artillery. the LIST Brigade
will be about 5000 strong. Under the re-
organization plan Brig. Gen. Marion p
Maus was to take command of that bril-
gade. with headquarters at Albany. For
some time he has been on duty at Van

Immediately following the conference

after a conference called by the Pres

saIy. The purpose is merely to take pre-
cautionary steps to protect Americans and
foreigners i'm the City of Mexico should
conditions of violence continue and an
ar,hy succeed.
The attitude of the government is still
strong against Intervention and it was
determined to take no step at this time
which would commit us to such a policy.
and to take only the reasonable precau-
tions to meet an exigency which it is
earnestly hoped and believed will not
