Washington, June 12.—With 1,500 additioral regular troops ordered to the Mexican border tonight and re- ports of the rapid spread of anti- American feeling continuing to pour in from consuls all over northern Mexico, administration officials made no attempt to disguise their uneasi- ness. It was officially admitted that there is a growing afarm over what the agitation may produce and the ossib.lity of an_ attack on General ershing’s expedition. Part of the increasing apprehension here is due to the renewed raids in the Laredo region. Several reports dealing with the situation there have been received. It declined to reveal details but the, gave the impression of having reason to believe that a. serjous cause was behind the bandit raid on the Coleman ranch. Three raiders were killed and three captured, one report said, adding that they at- tempted to burn a railroad bridge near Laredo,~but failed. To Fill in Gaps. ‘The new force sent to join General Funston’s border Fatrol, Secretary Baker said, was to fill i gaps in the guard such as that near Laredo. It will be composed of tef-companies of coast artillery and a battalion of engineers. The crtilierymen will be withdrawn from fortifications be- tween Portland, Me, and Sandy Hook, ad the engineers will go from barracks in this city. The secretary said there ‘was no peesent intention of calling out additional National Quard regiments for border duty. General Mann, commanding at La- redo, reported today that a patrol of three cavalrymen were fired on during the night of June 10, near the town of Hacgita, and Private W. L. Saunders, troop K, Twelith cavalry, was slightly wounded. Two mounted Mexicans who did the firing escaped. A message from Captain Burrage, commanding the battleship Nebraska at Vera Cruz, said there was consider- able unrest in that region, due appar- ently to the currency situation. ’l'hcre were 'no evidences of unfriendliness towards Americans, the message said. It added that the Carranza govern- THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14, 1916. BY RING W. LARDNER. |will start a fad that will put them out St. Louis, Mo, Jun¥ 13.—(Special |¢f business. I and Mr. Hammond neariy had a Telegram.)—A new third party was good story today, but-tost our nerve launched today. So far it is com- |at the last minute. We called up Sec- posed of three members and its name |tetary Daniels’ room and ast him for is the Three-I league, on account of | ¥ all three talking all the time about themselves.

Nice People for Roger. Mr. B. L. T. was told to write something himself, and not clip so much. Mr. King was told to draw a pitcher of the three most prominent uys here, and he drawed I and Percy ammond and Roger Sullivan, who according to the dope I gét won't be as prominent as I and Percy Ham- nond after Thursday. But I don't want nobody to think 1 am knockig Mr, Sullivan |}e is OK on account of there being guessed, the three charter members South Bend Tribune,” we says, hoping | © many nice people that are for him are I and B.

T. for vice president and |cnce, and told the patients the United Percy for secretary of the navy on States had the greatest navy in the account of he saying so much and not saying nothing except about himself - The platform follows: First plank: [ It is unlegal to make a speech. Second plank: Those who make speeches should be choked to death. Third plank. The capital of the United States must be moved from wherever it is to Louisville. It was not without careful delibera- tion that us three decided to bolt the republicans and progressives and democrats. And while we realize that this move will change the entire poli- tical complexion, we should worry, to use ¢ slag cxpression. Good Badge Chosen. Our badge will be the American flag, which is a synomom for safety for American citizens everywhere ex- cept on the high sea and Mexico. As for the demqcratic convention, which I am supposed to be covering. I found out some more real inside stuff today. The names of Anheuser and Busch have been withdrawn. When this announcement was made, the party as one man decided that Woodrow Wilson must be the choice. Later it was ascertained that he can’t get here, and the convention will name nobody that isn't on the ground. Ifor vice president several names have been mentioned. At the mention of the most of them, you can’t help from laughing. Governor Major of Missouri seems to have the best chance of getting the biggest laughs. Charles Warren Fairbanks and Gov- | nor Willis of Ohio are out of it. Mr. Smoot and Mr. Borax, the same. As for Roger Sullivan, I would like very much to see him get it, but here is| what I heard today, and this is not no foolishness, but honest to heaven facts. Some Real Dope. A man that’s in the wine business and ought to know said that they won't never get a chance to vote for Roger because this here Marshall of Indiana is going to be nominated by acclamations, and the reason for that is on account of Fairbanks being nominated to run on the democratic ticket, the Indiana democrats would get mad and see that they wasn't no democrats elected. As far. as I'm concerned, I hope all candidates on both sides will get the stuffing beat out of 'em, and then maybe people will get wise to them- self and jomn the Three-I league. _Here is another piece of informa- ion, at least so the guy said that told t to me, and he is a citizen of St ~ouis and wouldn’t knock his own own without a reason. He says they have never been a candidate at a con- vention in St. Louis that -wasn't ment had been sending troops and ammunition inland. Captain Burrage did not kow the object of these troop movements. Asks De Facto. The State department through Spe- cial Agent Rodgers at Mexico City has called the attention of the de facto government to the anti-American out- breaks, which for nearly two weeks had been spreading-steadjly. Many towns have held mass meetings aud | protested against the continued | presence of American troops in Mex 1c0. The reports of consuls telling ol the agitation were turned over to the Carranza officials more as a matter of information than as representations Where his regular troops are in con trol apparently General Carranza has earnestly tried in most cases to pre- | vent the holding of protest meetings | and in some placss contemplated | meetings and parades have been pre ventedy There are instances, however where )IIL troops appear to have stood | mildly by while the agitators stirred | up antagonism against the United States. | Officials have been unable to dr-\ termine the inspiration behind the sudden outbreak of anti-American feeling or to estimate the ability of | Carranza to protect American Yives | and property. They feel that the rea! | danger lies in the possible action of | irregular forces now under the Car-| ranza bagnar, but whose commander | yields only doubtful allegiance to the central government. | Because of economic conditions in | Mexico, officials feel that the- possi- | bility of serious trouble is enhanced. | The currency situation is acute and | the people are restless and easily | stirred to outbreaks. Several consular | agents_have declared frankly in their reports that any evcn!uality%night be expected if the agitation continued to spread. The coast artillery ordered to the border today includes two companies | from Portland, Me.; two from Boston, two from Narragansett Bay, two from Long Island, one from eastern New York, one from southern New York, and one from Sandy Hook. Approxi- mately 1,000 men will compose this provisional infantry regiment. The Carranza troops have repulsed the new rebel movement in the Tehuantepec region, according to to- day’s ‘advices. State department reports indicate that Carranza’s control over certain state governors is waning. The gov- ernors have issued decrees and even currency without the authority or ap- proval of the central government. Promises of Support. San Antonio, Tex., June 12—Army officers here are convinced that Luis De La Rosa, has obtained from cer- tain officers in Carranza’s army prom- ises of support in any border warfare which he may begin against Ameri- cans, Ageats of the Department of Justice and of the State department have sent to Washington and to arm: headquarters here evidence which of- ficers here regard as reliable that De La Rosa has been assdred he will be unmolested by the de facto govern- ment troops and from at least one general offcer of Carranza's army the promise of active co-operation.

Brewers of an aristocratic beer for aristocratic people A New York, June 13.—Charles E. Hughes re-entered politics today, ap- parently with abundant zest He reached this city early in the day, His air of studious reserve apparently left him with the robes of his office. He had a hearty hand grasp and a smile for every man he met and seemed enthusiastic in his welcome of old friends, who came to see him after intervals of years. These came in crowds. One an old schoo!mate who used to call him “Charley” dropped in after an absence o nearly forty years. Waited Hour for Him.

How the progressive will vote; whether the colonel will take the stump for him; to what extent failures of the progressives to support Hughes would: affect the election—these and kindred topics were the subject of much speculation on the part of re- publican leaders who called.
