THE MANSFIELD NEWS WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29, 1911. THREe WHY TAFT SENT SOLDIERS SOUTH Mexico On Brink of Revolution and Anarchy and Our Preparedness Necessary. AMERICAN PROPERTY MENACED President Takes Senators Into Confidence and Shows That "Maneuvers" Were Warranted by Desperate Nature of Conditions in lic-Anti-American Feeling Ready to Break Out at Any Moment and Diaz Unable to Preserve Order. Washington, March 29. Republi members of the senate foreign relations committee have been taken into President Taft's confidence in regard to the true situation in Mexico.

He has laid before them the information which led to the sending of 20,000 troops to the border, and these members, with the evidence before them, believe that Mr. Taft was justifled in his action. They have no doubt that the president, if congress demands information on this subject, can fend in an answer which will cut the ground from beneath his critics and show that he would have been derelict in his duty if he had failed to order the troops to Texas. Official information was received by this government that Mexico was on the verge of a widespread revolution. The republic to the south was! described as a volcano ready to erupt at any moment, throwing the country into anarchy and jeopardizing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of American property and American lives.

Grave doubt was expressed of the ability of the Diaz government to withstand the shock. Anti-American Feeling Strong. The well-known existence of a strong, widespread anti-American feeling in Mexico, added to the seriousness of these reports and President Taft, when they were laid before him, found himself in a position where he would be obliged either to accept the official reports and act quickly, or ignore them and assume responsibility for the serious results that might follow. He chose the former, and with the troops under way the president was confronted with the embarrassing situation of not being able to take the public into his confidence. To have publicly discussed the situation In Mexico not only would have been taken as an affront by the Diaz government, but would also have operated to defeat the president's own purpose by encouraging the revolutionary uprisings across the border.

Members of the senate wao have been taken into Mr. Taft's confidence declare that the developments of the last week, notably the resignation of the entire Diaz cabinet, have justified the alarming view which the president and other United States authorIties had of the Mexican situation. Troops Centered at Capital. Another factor that led to the sending of the troops to tne trontier was that the Mexican government had withdrawn most of her army from the south and north to the central part of the republic to protect Mex1co City. Efforts were made in vain to get adequate protection from ican troops for the big Colorado river dam being constructed on Mexican territory under the direction of this government.

Aside from the official reports, many occurrences have indicated conclusively the dangerous strength of the anti-American feeling in Mexico. The action of the Diaz government itself on several occasions had shown this clearly enough. The privilege which had been extended to this country of holding target practice in Magdalena bay was withdrawn as a concession to this feeling and it was learned that the Mexican government not only refused to allow any American soldiers on Mexican soil to protect the Colorado river dam, but declined even to consent to having the dam built by this government. The United States, to satisfy the anti-American feeling in Mexico, had to go through the form of engineering a Mexican company to construct this work. It was occurrences like these which led the president and his advisers to fear the results of a reign of anarchy in Mexico.

PREDICTS EARLY PEACE. Elder Madero Talks Freely to San Antonio Reporters. San Antonio, March Within an hour of his arrival from New York, Francisco I. Madero, father of the provisional president of Mexico, who is accompanied by his son Gustave, announced that by rangements which had been concluded between himself and Jose Yves Limantour in New York, definite measures for peace between the insurrectos and the Diaz government in Mexico were in process of being formulated. He even allowed himself to prophesy that within 30 or 60 days there would be peace over the entire territory of Mexico, and without the intervention of American troops.

It would be a peace concluded without the laying down of arms by the insurrectos now in the field said the elder Madero. It would be a peace which might allow Porfilo Diaz still to sit in the presidential chair, but the nature of his powers would be far different from that which has obtained in the past. There will be no armistice between Maderistas in the field and the federal troops opposing them during the time that whatever negotiations now contemplated may be in the making. Under no conditions will the rebels lay down their arms. They will simply guarantee to disperse upon the conclusion of a final treaty, each man carrying his arms to his home.

Peace will not become a fact unless two things are free election and the Incorporation in the national constitution of a law prohibiting the re-election of all government officers. Certain changes in the newly appointed cabinet, looking toward the inclusion therein of men who are known not to be allied with the old Diaz regime, must be one of the conditions established before the lution shall come to an end. After outlining through his son these general conditions, which Senor Madero took pains to say were only the cardinal points of the many under consideration, the father of the fighting Francisco said this: "Peace is in the air. I believe that it will be with us in 30, maybe in 60 days. Already the first preliminary steps looking toward the end of the revolution have been accomplished: that is, the fall of the old Diaz ministry.

NOT YET, BUT SOON. President Diaz Dentes That He Will Resign Under Fire. Mexico City, March In an authorized interview President Diaz denied absolutely the report that he had resigned. When asked if it was his intention to resign, he stated that he would not do so at least until the present rebellion had been subdued. Concerning his ultimate intentions in this regard, the president asserted that it was difficult to say now what he would do, but that it was not improbable that he would resign later on.

He terminated the interview by stating again that be had no intention of stepping out while the internal troubles continue. Mexico has undergone a serious scare within the last few days by the currency of a report that an outbreak was likely to occur here at any moment. It is said on good authority that the government is in possession of information that arms and ammunition have been distributed among the Madero sympathizers throughout the city. An incipient plot was discovered a few days ago the purpose of which was to attack the jails and release the prisoners. As a result of this, officers of regiments stationed here were ordered to remain in their barracks and the troops slept under arms.

POLICE BUSINESS One Man in Mayor's Court and Another Bitten by a Dog. One case was heard before the mayor in police court morning. A man from the country giving his name as W. S. Chetman was arrested by Officer Beam at the depot on the charge of being intoxicated and disorderly.

The defendant gave his age as 50 years and stated that he was born in Ohio. The mayor fined him $2 and costs amounting to $5.60. He paid the bill and was released from custody. About 10 o'clock this morning Bert Jarvis came police headquarters and complained to the chief that he had been bitten by a dog on East Fourth street. Jarvis stated he was walking along the street when a fox terrier first jumped at a boy and then attacked him, biting him in the calf of the left leg.

The victim was injured in front of Lantz's dry goods store. He turned up his trousers and showed a I severely lacerated leg. The officers were sent out to find the dog and place it in condition where it could bite no other person and Jarvis left the police building to have his wound cared for. WATERFORD. Mr.

That Feeling Of Fullness Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet, When you take food into a stomach that is tired and over-taxed the gastric juices do not form fast enough to digest it properly.

Now all this condition is changed almost instantly by a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet.

You use all the care and ability at your command to buy right. You keep you shelves well filled with new goods and the right kind. You insist upon courtesy toward all your customers. The displays in the windows and on the counters are made to appeal. Still results are not satisfying.

Now, why? What is the reason that the growth from month to month does not prove satisfactory? Think it over hard. Don't you depend too much upon your personal acquaintances? Don't you rely wholly upon people passing by your store and being attracted by your displays? Hundreds of people pass by and never look toward your store, while many hundreds more never come within sight of your windows. How to reach these people is your problem.
