BORDER CONSTABULARY
IS NEWEST PEACE PLAN
Commission Apparently Gives
Up Joint Police Plan.

New London, Conn, Sept. ia
suggestion that the Mexican govern
ment create a constabulary force for
border duty similar to the rurales OF
the Diaz regime was made to-day in
the brief session of the American Mex
lean joint commission in concluding the
second week of its deliberations.
Apparently the plan for joint police
force previously discussed was aban-
doned after the commissioners had con-
ferred with Major General Tasker H..
Bliss, assistant chief of staff Of the
United States army.
The three Mexican commissioners
left for New York tonight to join in
the celebration of the.Mexican national
holiday there tomorrow. DR.. John r.
Mott, of the American commission, is
absent on personal business, but his as
sociates, Secretary Lane and Judge
Gray, are here studying official tele-
graphic reports from the border and
the interior of Mexico.

N. Y. MEN MUST
STAY AT BORDER
Hike Order Dashes Hope
of 22d Engineers for
Early Return.

McAllen Tex, Sept. 15.-Hopes OF the
22d Engineers that they would be sent
home soon were dashed to-day when
they were ordered to break camp and
hike to Rio Grande City. There one
company of the bridge builders and
boat manipulators will take charge OF
a pontoon train large enough &c make
a crossing over the Rio Grande. The
pontoons have been at Rio Grande City
for months in the care of infantrymen.
Reports indicated that the infantry
men, after filling the boats with water,
a per regulations, let them be tilted at
such an angle that all the water ran
out of the prows. The result was that
the prows dried up and warped. Ac-
cording to officers of the 22d, one such
boat might upset a whole pontooh
structure and make crossing lmpos-
sible at a moment when all depended on
perfect alignment of pontoons.
The result of finding that the In
fantrymen were running the pontoons
was an order for the engineers 70 go up
eineers will build a road and bridges
back toward McAllen, so that the New
York division can rapidly motor TO the
border if any trouble starts.
The showers, of cloudburst proper
tions, have turned the roads into a lake
like condition. But little traffic is
moving pending the operation of the
Texas sun. This is the time of year IN
this part of Texas that the trade winds
die down, and the northers are too
weak 10 reach this far south. The re-
suit is dead-hot heat. And mosquitoes
by the million, Matched out in puddles
left by recent rains, have accentuated
all the difficulties and torments OF the
New York border camps.
FL Paso. Tex. Sept. Reorganization
commanders of the National Guard
troops here received kilograms to-day
from the War Department asking the
number of cars necessary to move their
contingents.
While military men assumed that
this indicated an early withdrawal of
the militia from the border. II was
pointed out that maneuvres had been
planned for practically all of the state
troops in this district early in October.
Washington, Sept. 15.-War Depart
ment officials explained to-day that the
transportation inquiry to the border
commanders was made by the Quarter
masters Department as a routine pre-
caution in preparation for any future
movement OF troops. II was stated that
the inquiry did not mean that there
were any plans for immediate with
drawal or other movement OF the
troops.

ROOSEVELT GLAD

The campaign TO elect Charles H.

different kinds of drives just as the
two men are different types Of cam

other will have all the fire, personality

Dir. Hughes momentarily shocked
some Of the Republican campaign man
aver. at national headquarters when
h. returned from his first Western
tour. At the same time. he removed any
doubt that he was still the same COM
handing leader of eight years ago.
A campaign had been mapped out for
the Republican nominee that would bet

smiled and suavely but firmly disap-
proved. He had reached his own deci-
sion about his next trip, and without
much difficulty he convinced his man

for him.

BACON AND CALDER
ON SANE PLATFORM
Rivals Criticise Wilson in Ad.
dressing Republican Club.

Robert Bacon and William NJ. Calder,
rival candidates for the Republican
nomination for United States Senator,
spoke at a meeting of the Republican
Club of the Goth Assembly District at
627 Madison Avenue, last night.
Neither took direct opposition to the
opinions of his adversary, except IN
one detail. Mr.. Bacon advocated uni
versal military service. while Mr.. Cal
der denied its necessity or practical
biity and urged, instead, that the
United States be content with a small
army and centre its energies on build
ing up the strongest navy in the world.
Both candidates were harsh in their
criticism of President Wilson, espe-
cially Mr.. Bacon, who said that he had
just returned from the border and de-
clared the condition Of the militia
guarding the Rio Grande too pitiable
TO be talked about.
