%3 REPORT D BY PRESIDENT No Steps Taken to Land Marines in Mexico. "HIS POSITION UNCHANGED Chief Executive Still as Firmly Op- posed to Intervention as Ever, but United Demand by the Powers Might Compel Change of Mind. ‘Washington, Feb. 27.—President ‘Wilson authorized an emphatic denial that Admiral Fletcher, commanding the American fleet off Mexico, has ad- vised the sending of 1,000 marines to guard the United States embassy in Mexico City. It was declared at the White Nouse that no communication has been received from Admiral Fletcher relative to sending marines, either wrging it or advising against it. This officially disposes of two con- flicting reports, one that Fletcher urg- od the dispatching of a large embassy guard, the ‘other that he strongly op- posed it, after his opinion had been sought by Seoretary Bryan. The secretary of state, however, is understood to be in favor of sending & guard of 200 marines to Mexico City. Both the navy and war departments take the position that if any guard is sent it should be much larger. Mr. Bryan has received a consular report concerning the killing of Ben- ton, the British subject, but refused absolutely to indicate the nature of it. He had a conference with the presi- dent, at which Mr. Wilson was made acquainted with the contents of the report. President Wilson is still as firmly opposed to intervention as ever. Noth- ing has yet taken place to cause a change in his present Mexican policy of “watchful waiting.” Furthermore, it was declared that only one thing can change it—a rejection of that policy by the foreign powers. This change, if it comes as a resullt of foreign pressure, will undoubtedly be armed intervention. There is another alternative—-recognition of Huerta. But the Wilson administration is too deeply committed against that to con- sider it now. "FOLLOW LEAD OF AMERICA Other Powers May Urge Citizens to Leave Mexico. Washington, Feb. 27.—The bility that Great RBritain, Germany, France and other powers may follow the lead of the United States in warn- ing their subjects to leave Mexico was discussed in official circles here as a likely zffect of the execution recently by th . Constitutionalists of William Benton, a British subject. .. Some officials pointed out that while the United States has twice warned possi- her citizens to leave the rebelli~n torn country, European nations have taken no such precautions, making the problem of extending protection to foreigners who insist on remaining erous territory a burden that ing the Washington government concern. The United States nment it is understood would render assistance possible to foreign- ers desiring to leave Mexico. Evidence is still being gathered by the state department in its inquiry “into the Benton incident. OLD-TIME COLD CURE— | DRINK HOT TEA!

IS URGED Senator Borah Addresses Ghio Meetmg MAKE WAR ON MONOPOLY Idaho Solon Declares Time Has Come for “Remedies, Not Palliatives,” in Dealing With Trusts. Assails the Progressive Party’'s At- titude on the Subject. Industrial Columus, O., Feb., 27.—Delegations from all sections of Ohio arrived here to attend the Republican state ‘har- mony” meeting with a view to solidi- fying the Republican and Progressive ranks in the coming campaign. Many delegations were ' accompanied by brass bands. 2 United States Senator W. E. Borah of Idaho was the principal speaker at a “dollar” dinner which was served at Memorial hall. Open war on monopoly was advocat- ed by Senator Borah. The time has come for “remedies, not palliatives,” in dealing with industrial monopolies, he said, and he urged a vigorous poli- ¢y on the part of the Republican party in this regard. At the same time he assailed the at- titude on this issue of such leaders of the .Progressive party as former Sen- ator Beveridge of Indiana and George W. Perkins of New York, who, he said, maintained that monopolies “were the proper thing and all they need is a little regulation.” Pleading for all men who believe in the principles of the Republican party to aid in its rejuvenation as a progres- sive party, Senator Borah declared that “even if the Republican party was at an end, I could never join the third party so long as it stands, as it now stands, if 1 correctly understand its leaders, on this question of monopoly.” GIVEN ONE MORE CHANCE No Steps Yet Taken to Deport Ameri- can Suffragette.
