More Marines Ordered.

Washington, Jan S-Four hundred marines in the Panama canal zone to- day were ordered to join American warships off the east coast of Mexico, which will double the marine guard aboard the vessels.
 Secretary Daniels explained that the transfer was for the health of the men who have been on the isthmus for many months and whose du-y there ended when the war depart ment recently sent regular troops to permanently garrison the canal zone. He said the action could not be con nected in any way with the recent visit of John Lind to Gulfport.
 This official statement was issued:
 "The recently approved recom- mendation of the general board for the redistribution of marines proyid- ed for the withdrawal of the marine detachment on the isthmus to unite with the larger commands. Recent reports of unhealthful conditions un' der which this detachment is operat- ing has led the department to decide on their immediate withdrawal. These marines temporarily will be distribut- ed among the ships at Vera Cruz"

ON DEBATABLE MATTERS
Secretary of War Asks Gen. Wood to Formulate a Regulation to This End and Latter Promises to Do So at Once.

Washington, Jan. S.-Offcers of the United States army in future will not be permitted to discuss pub llcly army matters of a debatable nature New regulations to cover this point will follow an exchange of memoranda today between Secretary Garrison and Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, chief of staff. in regard to a published article telling of free press natter furnished to newspa- pers by Arthur w. Dunn, writer in the employe of the Infantry Associa- ton.
 Some of the matter referred to is said to have dealt directly with the Mexican situation, though much of it was made up of interviews with cer- tain officers in regard to the move ment for a larger army and certain reforms in organization, the objects of the Infantry Association.
 In his memorandum to Gen. Wood Secretary Garrison said:
 Please look into the case suff- ciently to ascertain whether officers of the army are furnishing matter to the newspapers concerning questions of policy under discussion between the department and congress or any other matters not strictly within the line of duty of such officers.
 'T feel that the best interests of the country and of the army would be served if officers would not in- dulge in public debate or discussion, or in any sort of public propaganda with respect to army matters of de batable nature.
 q would like to suggest the for mutation of some regulation that will advise officers of the proper attitude think they should assume toward this matter"
 Gen. Wood replied:
 q have made inqory of Maj. John son, editor of the Infantry Journal with reference to the work of the In- fantry Association, and find that it has and is employing Mr. Dunn as an agent in the publication of data relating to the army, with view % spreading abroad what it believes to be valuable information, information which should be in the hands of the people. I am informed by Maj. John son that they have limited the mate rial to that embodyng the approved policy of the War Department Maj. Johnson has been informed of your wishes that all activities Of this sort be terminated and he has assured me he will take the necessary steps to bring about this end.
 T will take immediate steps to pre- sent to you for consideration regula- tions which will advise officers of the army of what the department con siders to be their proper attitude with reference to discussion of matters pertaining to the service or publica- tion of articles concerning the same '

PRESIDENT ELLIOTT AND ATTOR. NEY GENERAL M'REYNoLDs
 WILL HOLD MEETING.
PLAN A REORGANIZATION
First Steps Are Taken to Permit the Road to Retain It's Competinq Steamship Lines To Be Taken Be- fore Commission.

Washington, Jan. S-After another day of conference with Attorney Gen eral McReynolds, Chairman Howard Elliott of the New Haven Railroad left Washington tonight to meet hls directors in New York to morrow, still hopeful that the Department of Justice will agree to such plans for reorganization of the road as its Of ticials believe are practicable. Mir. Elliott Is expected to return to Wash- ington Saturday or Monday, when it is believed the attorney general and his assistants will press the whole New Haven ease" to some conclu- sion, either the peaceful one of reor- ganization or to dissolution suit in court.
 With the announcement today that the New Haven had taken the first step to bring before the Interstate Commerce Commission the question of it's retention of competing steam ship lines, it was said one difficulty had been removed from the path of negotiations. The principal point in controversy when Mir Elliott left was said to be the disposition of the New Ravens trolley lines.
 The New Haven brought the mat ter of it's ownership of competing steamship lines to the attention of the commerce commission in eompli- ance with the Panama canal act of fgI2 That act prohibited after July [, 1911, any ownership or interest by railroad or other common carrier in any common carrier by water when the railroad does or may compete with such water carrier. h addition the commission was clothed with power to determine questions of fact as to competition, and was authorized q to extend beyond July 1 the time in which railroad may continue the operation of steamship lines where such service 'is of advantage to the convenience and commerce of tho people."
 The New Ravens application asks
 
 ground that the rates are lower on the rail and water routes maintained than on the all-~ail routes. lt de- tlares the continuance is of advant- age to the service and commerce Of the people. Under this application the New Haven undoubtedly will Ee granted an opportunity to argue the business of it's claim. No date has been set tonight to a hearing.
 It was pointed out tonight, how ever, that although this step by tue New Haven has put the matter of steamship line ownership before tho commission it has no binding effect upon the Department of Justice. The department is not negotiating with the New Haven over the Panama canal act, but is concerned with proa- able violations of the Sherman law, and if it feels the ownership of steamship lines is i'll restraint of trade, it can adopt it's own method of procedure.
