In order to halt raids alleged to be
endangering American life and prop
erty. But 1t was made clear by Sec
retary Daniels that the Marines had
not been ordered to land without
further instructions.
Efforts have been made to get the
Navy Department to order small de-
tachments of Marines into the interior
TO protect American ranches an
properties It Is feared that to do
this would mean that the small de-
tachments would be cut to pieces by
Nillistas or Indians and then large
forces would have to be landed and
grave Mexican complications would
result
Mr.. Daniels Is endeavoring through
the commander OF the Annapolis in
the region OF Topolobampo and
through Admiral Winslow to get de-
tails as to conditions on the west
coast and the number of Americans
who rae in the interior back from
Topolobampo. They are said to be
in danger. The department, however,
does not contemplate landing of Ma
rines unless the conditions are grave,
and II they do land. 1t will be in suf-
hcient force so that they may protect
themselves.
