WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The Unit
ID States is fully prepared for inter
vention in Mexico. Only formal or
ders for mobilization Of troops and
warships are needed to send major
Ity Of the standing army into the
southern republic and big force OF
battleships to her ports.
After working all night, war de-
partment chiefs had mapped out ev-
ery detail, ready for instant dispatch
Of troops. Major General Wood, chief
Of staff, did not leave his desk until
nearly daylight.
President Taft will stick to his pol
icy of non-intervention to the last mo-
ment but if it appears that the revolt
in Mexico City is to spread and that
repetitions OF yesterdays battle will
force American non-combatants into
the zone Of actual fighting, or result
in anarchy, he will be ready for an
armed demonstration.
The presidents attitude was re-
nected in statement issued at 3 a.
m. today, following hurriedly ar
ranged meeting at the white house.
The statement read:

president, with the secret ries OF

! ed that the news from the city OF
Mexico required any action of an af-
firmatiye character other than to or,

command OF an admiral.
"The war department will hold it
self in readiness. but no affirmative
action was directed to be taken by
the secretary of war, except to put
two transports now at Newport
News in commission.
These transports will receive
troops should further action be deem
Cd necessary. The purpose is merely
to take precautionary steps to pro
tect Americans and foreigners in the
City Of Mexico should conditions ol
violence continue and anarchy sue

The attitude OF the government is
still strong against Intervention and
