RECRUITING MORE TROOPS
SAM ANTONIO, Texas. March 13.—
There .s haste in recruiting' troopers
for the ninth and eleventh cava'ry
regiment* which are believer! due as
the first to see service along the Mex-
ican border.
Wve "hundred reteruit* havo been
rushed to San Antonio und attached
to the 11th regiment. Recruits are
coming from various stations to join
the ninth.
Officers believe these cavalry regi-
ments will be s«*nt in a fe. day; to
relieve the overworked troop-, now
blocking the border.
With the prospect of the suspension
of the Mexican constitution end the
establishment of martial law, it is be-
lieved here that the invasion by Amer-
ican troop? into Mexico is more immi-
nent than any time since the mobiliza-
tion of the troops along the border.
President Diaz' troops have been or-
dered to shoot any one 'caught steci.1-
ing. which is expected to develop what
President Taft termed the "cause for
intervention"
