Army officers here expressed today the be lief that the chief reason of the movement of the troops to the Texas frontier was to give the public a chance to view the efficiency of the army In quick mobilization. If any defects existed, It was said, they would be sure to show at this time, and swift remedies applied.. San Antonio Is rapidly taking on the appearance of an armed camp. The troops are arriving on all trains, and as fast as they detrain they are set to work pitching camp. Alreudy water pipes have been laid In many of the company streets.

The Waters-Pierce Oil com- pany, has a practical monopoly of the oil business throughout Mexico. The Wells Fargo company, practical express monopoly. Americans have large rail- road holdings.

United States stand ready to invade Mexico, at tne "nrst necessary cause for action." They will check any secesslonary moven monts on the part , of the people ot Lower California from the Diaz con- federation; the troops will prevent the destruction of American property; thoy will patrol the border and pre vent filibustering, and, finally the original excuse of mobilization prac tice maneuvers will be engaged in by both land and sea forces. The president makes no further attempt to cloak the army's activity under the term maneuvers. It Is ad mitted that the army of mobilization soon may become an army of pacifi cation, and that the forces are gath ering In . Arizona, California and Texas to aid President Diaz In sup pressing the Mexican Insurrection. The army will not hesitate to in vade Mexico If It be deemed neces sary to maintain the Diaz regime. A plan whereby the American and Mexican federal armies will act to gether has been decided upon at a conference between President Taft and Mexican Ambassador De La Bar ra.
