Triel bottle free Guaranteed by A. G. Waener. lo Be In Positon to Instantly Uphold Monroe Doctrine. FOREIGN INTERESTS DEMAND IT If For Any Reason the Diaz Govern merit Fails United States Must Protect Investments and Citizens. Washington, Alar. 9.—Rush order: ' were issued by the \sar department to' take L’,000 recruits in addition to tin 20,b00' troops which has been mob: li/cd and en route from army posts tcj the Mexican frontier. The recrulu j will not be withdrawn from the cam;: i even if it be found that the coni mnnds that have Don ordered tin r-. have their full quota. The fact <:• this order iodieates the permanency of the camps which are proposed i;« i the Mexican lines. An additional im poitant ordtr went to the Pacific ti • t by which it will receive fiuti additioi i marines out of the 1.000 now oti thi i’acilic uoast. These marines will follow tho cruiser squadron which is going from l ots Angeles to San Diego and it is probable that ail ma j lues, including the new quota will gc into camp near San Diego. Full of Political Dlnamite. 'The situation is full of intornation a] political dynamite, it is known that the foreign interests, personal and commercial belivo or affect to b lieve that they are in jeopardy in Mexico and they claim the right of full guarantee by the United State or the right of intervention by them selves. Tills brings up squarely the quiz Don and application of tho Alonrot doctrine. As it is understood by t! • government, foreign nations have t right or have been allowed the right to collect debts nml to protect their citizens and their property in the re publics of the Western hemisphere. The situation in the republic of Mexico demands a more instant an t friendly application of the Monroe doctrine by the United States to its affairs in case of a threat of hectoring messages or any proposed drastic ac tion by France, Germany or England 'The United States and .Mexico arc bound together by very close ties and are ns a mailer of fact united to preserve the peace of the republics which lie South of Mexico up to the borders of Colombia in South Amer ica. Could Not Do Otherwise, Officials whose foresight can be Well relied upon, say that the United States could not act otherwise than it has, assuming that tho information it re cives from diplomatic officials cov ering tho Mexican situation be cor rect. Whether right or wrong, tills gov ernment 1ms been told that Mexico has not suppressed the revolution in the northern provinces because Presi dent Diaz, for salf-nrotacUon and for me maintenance or his government against internal enemies has been obliged to retain the bulk of the rmy in the central and southern por ti 'n of the republic.

Grant, at present com manding the department of the East lias been selected as military aid on the staff of John Hays Hammond, the special ambassador to represent Pres ident Taft at the coronation of King George V. Chicago July Delivery Dropped to 89 Cents per Bushel, END OF HIGH PRICES IN SIGHT Government Crop Report Shows Large Supply of Wheat in Hands of Fanneis—Provisions Down Also. Chicago, Mar. 9. Wheat for July delivery sold on the Chicago board ot trade for S9 cents a bushel. One veal' a:ro wheat for the July He livery was selling for $1.18 a bushel. 1 Good wheat, flour sold on the Chi cago board of trade for $4.55 a barrel. Five weeks ago this same flour was j selling on the hoard of trade Jar $G.55 a barrel. The end of the decline In the prices' of wheat and flour Is not, according to men who keep well posted on condi tions, In‘sight. It is freely predicted on the board of trade that wheat will sell almost as low as 70 cents a bush el before there is an improvement The failing off in i.»e price of whoai and flour is, if good judges of condi tions arc not wrong in their prognos tication, merely the forerunner of a general decline in the prices of all articles that have made the price of living such a burden to the poor man, the, wage earner and the salaried man. for so many months back. It is freely predicted that prices will go tumbling all down the line; that provisions and meats will he low er and that the man who carries a tin dinner pail to work each day' will again come Into his own —that the , dinner pails will again‘lie filled with good nourishing food, meats in par tlcular purchased at reasonable prices. The United States government crop report estimates the amount of wheat held ou the farms March !, 1011 at the enormous total of 179,090,* 000 bushels. On the board of trade they add to these figures 43,133,000 bushels as the visible supply not in cluded in the government report and that 57,000,000 bushel; estimated as being held in the hands of millers, in eontry elevators and iu the shape of flour. This brings the total of wheat and flour in the country on 1 lie first of the month according to the best estimates, 279,323,500 bushels A year ago the total figured the same way was 203,103,800 bushels. There, are no buyers for this enormous1 amount of wheat. There is no export trade; tlie millers are not buying; wheat is at a dead standstill. On the Chicago board of trade the world's greatest wheat market, there was soid only 5,000 bushels of wheat. There are S4.U00 barrels of flour in Chicago at the present time. Flour is piled up in the storehouses, in the elevators, on the seaboard—every-, where. That is why prices of flour! have declined. As the market in wheat and iio'ur J goes, so goes tlie provision market.! The dealers in provisions make no j secret of the fact that, in their belief, I the end of the high prices is in sight. They reason in this way: "The continued high prices have practically driven the consumption of meats out of t lie market. The poor man could not afford to buy; the rich man curtailed his buying. Consump tion of meats has fallen off to a mark ed degree. Stocks are piling up prices must go down. The poor man will 1 onie into his ow n again." Over production of wheat is given as the cause for the glut on the mar ket. Farmers have been getting high prices for wheat and have increased their acreage year by year. There have been no had years. The United states cannot consume all of the wheat that is grown in the country. There is no export trade. Hence the glut in the market and the decline in prices. GO S ON TARIFF REVISION Democrats Propose First to Ratify Canadian Agreement. REDUCE NECESSITIES .OF LIFE The Farmer is Not to Be Overlooked and General Business Interests Will Not Suffer They Say. Washington, Mar. 9.—Responsible leaders in the senate and house made it plain that it is not the purpose ot' the Democratic party in the extra session to run amuck on the tariff questton. Senator Owen the new lead t ;• of the progressive democracy in the upper house; Senators Bacon and Overman and Champ Clark, who is to be speaker have declared that sanity and common sense will be the rule of action of their party. The predict tiiat Republicans who are expecting to see tlie Democratic party split on the tariff rock will lind it emerge from the Sixty-second congress united and stronger then ever before. According to the program these representatives members talked over, the reciprocity agreement is to be atified and those schedules that in volve monopoly, controlled products and the necessities of life will be re vised. The remainder of the sched ules will bo left for the regular ses sion. There will be no wholesale re vision and no upsetting ot business generally. While the reciprocity agreement is under way in the senate the house committee will work out its scheme of revision regarding wool and cotton, woolen and cotton goods, flour, dressed meats and other neces saries of life and probably agricul tural implements. The farmer is not to be overlooked. Whatever action the Democrats may take it will com pensate the farmer for Die free ad mission of agricultural products from Canada and remove from his should ers the burden of carrying the entire load of tariff taxation, in return for free farm products from Canada the farmer is to be given either free or at greatly t duccd rates the articles he consumes and tlie implements with which he raises his crops. The general business interests will not suffer, unless it be the agricul tural implement trust and with this kind of a program before them the responsible leaders believe tbe extra session can be limited to about three months.
