Thirty-six hours after the arrival of Finance Minister Limantour, the man herald ed as the one that would bring peace to Mexico, there was evidently no sign of any cessation of hostilities. Madero's rebel forces in the north were actively carrying on their cam paign and the War Department had not rescinded any of its order for quelling the insurrection.

Civil war exists today as it did the day before the minister arrived and those who had hoped that Ms coming would mean a speedy solution of the problem admit now that the minister meant just what he said when he stated that he bore from the rebels no terms of, peace and that he hirnself lu io Ki had no definite plans for bringing the revolution to an end Government Slill Contend He Has Fund to Pay Fine and Fight AgaJnit Release Another Phase of the Case.

Cummins is a Tennessee man, who came to New York only a year ago, highly recommended asJ a successful promoter.

The called Mexican situation cleared con siderably here today. The attitude ot United States government has been made plain and there need no longer be any doubt, it was stated by administration officials today, as to what policy the President has in view. has announced that he -will everything possible to maintain the friendly relations that so long have existed between thte country and Mexico. 'Apy rupture of these relations must come as the result of some overt act on Mexico soil. The United States has.

no desire to interfere in the international affairs the Southern Republic and President Taft will not recommend such inter ference to Congress until the circumstances become such as to permit no other possible course. The American troops were sent to Texas and prepared for any emergency on the strength of reports that indications in Mexico were approaching such chaos as at any, time might threaten American lives and property in that country. These reports were of such a nature that President Taft felt that he covfld not help need tnem. tie aciea qmcK ly and hoped by acting quickly the threat of danger would De stayed He believed that to a large extent this had been accomplished. He lieves that the presence of the army Texas distance of I Ae Mexican border has had a sober; kg influence and that Americans and American property be respected.

So long as Americans engaged in lawful pursuits are not molested and so long as property rights are protected, need not be alarmed by the reports of an American invasion, which have been spread in various quarters toy irresponsible persons. There will be no move toward the the Mexican border unless outrages so flagrant as to call for the presence of a protecting force occur. Even in the vent Of such an outbreak President Taft would not think of acting without the consent of Congress The President felt that it was-his duty as coramdnder-in-chlef of the' army and navy to prepare for an emergency, so that If Congress should he called upon to act its orders could be carried out with the greatest possible speed. "How long the, troops will remain in Texas, will depend entirely upon developments in Mexico. The United States government has determined to give President Diaz every possible chance to restore order in his Repub lic.

President Taft has determined that this government shall fulfill its international obligation in stopping the smuggling of arms and ammunition across the border when it is known, that they are to be used for purposes of war. The enforcement of the neutrality lawa called for the presence of many additional troops and was one of the causes of the recent army movements. Having carried out its obligations in this respect the United States would feel free to act further if the necessity might arise. I President Taft is hopeful that this necessity will not arise. But so long as there is a possibility of danger he will keep an adequate force near at hand.

Mexico has made no protest against the presence of troops in Texas. Such a protest would 'be regarded as undiplomatic inasmuch as the troops are on American soil and remain on American soil until Congress shall otherwise direct. President Taft lias assured the Mexican ambassador, Mr. PeLaBarra. that the Mexican government need feel no alarm over the movement of troops.

He has sent the same assurances to the city of Mexico. These assurance are in line with the policy the administration to maintain the friendliest of relations so long as sur relations are possible. There is every reason to believe that the troop will remain 'n Texas for at least four months. Meantime they will not be idle. The mobilization.

of the army will be taken advantage of to impart valuable training to the officers and men of the regular establishment and to jnany officers of the State militia of tate organizations will be sent to fexa3 from time, to time during the Maneuvers. fn a way, the sending of troops to ipxas will give the army the same valuable instruction and experience ijiat came to the navy as a result of cruise of the battleship around the world.
