"A lot OF sympathizers with Bryan's
grape Juice policy are afraid that war
with Mexico would cost the lives OK
many Americans. and that the war
would continue for years. No f1rst-class
nation like ours could have war with
Mexico because the Mexicans will not
fight II we sent only $4,000 men down

Mexico in a vigorous manner that the
United States would intervene IN ten days
unless all hostilities were suspended, !
believe that Mexico would behave and
there would be no more war.
Would Welcome Intervention.
lit is the general opinion Of people who
are familiar with conditions IN Mexico
that the better class of Mexicans would
welcome Intervention on the part OF the
United States, provided assurance was
given that none OF their territory would
be taken.
"1n addition to blockading all Mexican
ports, the United States should send 25O.-
600 soldiers into Mexico after first an
nouncing to the whole world that their
territory was to be taken and that when
peace was declared the United States
would make out a bill against Mexico Tor
expenses and withdraw the soldiers Wnen
the bill was paid. At the same time an

in Juarez tomorrow. according to infor-
nation reaching here yesterday. Roberto

route to Juarez to meet Gen. Carranza
in connection with the Benton case He
knows the general feeling Of the Amerl-
can government over the incident and
the desire for a clarification Of Its
mysterI.
That Maj. Fierro will be charged with
the crime and punished Is the expectation
of many Mexicans here. They explain
Gen. Villas story of a court-martial as
an effort to shield Fierro, who is said to
be his distant relative. The Carranza
commission. however, is reported to have
declared its purpose Of Furnishing Fierro
despite Villas efforts to protect him.
The arrest Of Fierro has been reported
from Chihuahua, but confirmation Is lack

while he had heard numerous versions Of
the Benton killing, comment would be
withheld until the CarranZa commission
had finished its work
