Beverly. Ma:s. September 7.?A crisis
Involving a special session of Congress
"?'?"i"! Imminent to-night in view of
the Increasing gravity of conditions
in Mexico. The situation as made
known at the summer capital tlus
evening Is as .'ollows:
Under the responsibility of the'
Monroe. Dlctrtn? it devolves upon tlioj
United States to bring about protec?
tion not only of the lives and prop?
erty of Americans In the Southern re-'
public, but of the similar intereslsi
there of Oreat Britain, Germany,!
Trance, and otner European powers.!
Their Investment In railroads, mines,
ar.d plantations and other enterprises!
In Mexico runs Into hundreds of mil?
lions of dollars. Pressure has been
brought to bear upon President Madero
to protect American lives and property,
but it has been without effect. Ameri?
can colonists have been robbed and
driven as fugitives across the Bio
Grande.
A sertou? feature of the situation Is
in the conditions in South-rn Mexico.
Madero has gone to the limit o: thei
military strength at his eommand ln[
Contending with tho rebelB In thoi
Northern states of the republic. Mean
titrii . Americana in the Southern states'
are at the mercy of rebels and bands!
of bandits, and even In Mexico City!
they arc In grave danger.
Kar removed from the American'
bordi r, they seem to be unconscious;
or Indifferent to the strength of the(
t'nlted States and regard themselves j
free from attack Friends of Presi?
dent Taft say that he realizes coiull-'
Hons In Mexico have In conic almost tn-;
tolerable, and that heroic measures!
will have, to he adopted to safeguard,
the lives and property of Americans!
and foreign residents In Mexico.
While President Taft was In Wash-,
Ington a few days ago he conferred
with ofliclnls of the State and War De?
partments and learned that there was
little prospect of Improvement In tho
turbulent state of affairs In the re?
public It Is stated that ho also cnll
od Manuel Calero, ambassador from
Mexico, arid Impressed him with thei
urgent necessity for the establishment
of outer In Mexico.
I hove Ml, Man of Pence.
President Taft Is above all a man of
peace, his friends say, anil will do
. tig possible to bring about a
peaceable solution of the problem, if
that cannot be accomplished, however,
he will call a special session and lay
the whol<- situation ln-fore Congress.
President Takt to-day authorized tho
War Deparlnnsit to send two additional
regiments of cavalry to the Mexican
border. One will go from Fort Riloy
and the other from Fort Busse!!. Wyo.
They will entrain at once so as to
i cache the border within two or three,
.days. I
As soon as the President arrived to.1
day he received nlarmlng dispatch-.-;
from the State anil War Departments.;
Major-Qcnernl Kood, chief of stnff of
the army. Informed tho President two;
additional reglmrints of cavvlry should
bo sent Into Texas without delay, and
Mr. Taft promptly approved the plan'
I of the War Department In transferring
the additional troops to ihe border.
According to Information forwarded
to the President by tho State ami War
Departments, tho situation In Mexico
Is most serious. Mr. Taft Is opposed
to Intervention except as a last resort.

Those of Straus, Is
Wanted for Head
of Ticket.
f Special to The Timea-Dts patch.]
B< isirt. N. j., September 7.?Gov
crr.or Wooilrow Wilson to-day ex?
pressed himself as pleased with the
Progressiv? party's nomination of
Oscar Straus tor Governor of New
York State. Commenting on It. the
Dcmocratlo presidential candidate
said:
"They have put out an admirable
ticket and an admlrib'.e p:a:f..rm. Mr.
Straus's nomination Is admirable. It
puts us on our mettle."
"Do you mean that shows the neces
plty of nominating E'r " gresslvcs on
the Democratic tickets In all States?"
"That goes without saying," he re?
plied.
Governor Wilson to-day received a
contribution n! $1 each from T. O.
Olllutn and his nine sons, who compose
a baseball team In Madison Mills. V.i.
The Governor has not arranged tho
dates upon which he will speak in
tho primary right for I'nlted States
Senator from New Jersey against
James Smith.
Friends of governor DIx havo with?
in the lost few days told Governor
Wilson that Tammany Hall proposes
to nominate Dlx. and that If the plan
Is carried out DIx wd'.l he beaten, and
that Wilson's plurality In the State
will be considerably lowered,
Quite independent of Governor Wil?
son himself, V can be said that a
sti-.inn effort will be made to Induce
Tammany Leader Murphy to abandon
DIx and put forth a gubernatorial
candidate whose qualifications w-lll
compa-e favorably with those of Mr.!
Stfaits. Tammany's answer Jo |thln 1
plea at present Is that to repudiate]
DIx would be equivalent to a repudia?
tion of Tammany's entire program of
the last two years. Governor Wilson's!
frien?s, however, say that the orga
nazatlon cannot afford to stand on a
question of dignity when the success
of the party Is In danger.
Want Mini hike McAdoo.
Governor Wilson's friends would
like to see William O. McAdoo nomi?
nated. They aTc merely putting him
forth, however, as tho type of man
they want, and as n matter of fact,
any one of half a dozen good men who
could be named would b.i satisfactory
to them.
Ono of Governor Wilson's friends
here offered to-day to bet t?n to one
that Dlx will not be renomlnated; that
If Leader Murphy attempts to force
bis renomlnatlon the convention will
get away from him. The man In ques?
tion, however, lias no evidence on
which to base his statement. The
wish was father to the thought.
Governor Wilson Is preparing some
hot shot to lire at ex-Senator James
Smith, jr., who has entered tho raco
for i'nlted Stntes Senator from New
Jersey against three of the Governor's
frlnilds. The Governor has not de?
cided when he will deliver ills speeches
against Smith. Asked where ho prob?
ably would speak, he replied. "That
will depend wholly on circumstances."

of tho campaign. Six hundred people,

I corded them applause in proportion, It
Is presumed, to their predilections.
Judged from this standpoint, Robert

the favorites. It being impossible to
distinguish between the volume of

E, C. Kolke? received scarcely less
flattering reception. But the Clay

th( meeting was held, was unfair in
arranging to have Kessnlch's Municipal

Whlttet end Mr. Hlrsehberg were in-!
troduced, when no tunes were given
after the announcement of the name of

Aug unto, Maine. Kenteniber 7.?On
the evo of the election of four Con?
gressmen, Slate officers ami a Legisla?
ture that will choose a United States
Senator, tho political situation in Maine
Is exceedingly complex, The local Is?
sues of the Statu finances and tho non
enforoement of the law prohibiting
the bale of Intoxicating liquors have
robbed the election of much, signifi?
cance it might otherwise havo had In
national politics. The line between the
Taft and Roosevelt republicans has
not been drawn, the two tactions work?
ing together for Slate pfflcers under a
truce.
Qovi rnor Frederic W. I'lalsted. of
Augusta, is the first Democratic Gov?
ernor Maine has had In thirty years.
His opponent, William T. llalnes, of
Watervllle, claims that he will not bo

Augusta, who was defeated for re-olee
tlon to Congress two yoars ago after
having served fourteen years at Wash?
ington, Is ,i candidate for the United

the Juno primary. Obadiah Gardner,

Governor I'lalsted to nil tho vacancy

Chairman John a. P. Wilson, of Au?

forcaa. says hla party will win by 15.

at-home In the Republican ranks on
account of the dissatisfaction In the
rural districts with the action of the
Chicago convention.
Republicans Confident.
Chairman Warren G. l'hllbrook, of
Watervllle, who took tho helm for the
Republicans this year, says thai the
Republican ticket will havo a com?
fortable majority, and that that party
will have both blanches of tho Legis?
lature.
Tho Republican hopo of victory is
based, on tho bollef that fewer Re?
publicans will vote for Governor
I'lalsted than was tho oa?o two years
ago.
Every county htwt Issues nil Its own
so interwoven with the State Issues
that It la next to impossible for one
not a resident of a county to get oven
an Idea of the situation. The claims
of the contestants are equally opti?
mistic. Tho Republicans claim that
thoy will make Inroads In Androscog
gin, Knox, Kennebec, Sogadobec ami
Penobsoot counties.
The Democrats claim they will make
blr, holes In the Republican majorities
In Oxford. Franklin, Arlstook and
Waldo, Thi' campaign, which la now
practically closed, has boon hard
fought. No voter in .Maine who cared
to hear one ?ble or the other need to
have remained uninformed.
Chairman Wilson doesn't oxpect tho
vote to ho especially heavy In the
aggregate, but many of his party dis?
agree with him. it is generally be?
lieved that the vote will be the largest
over, cos! In the state.

At the meeting to-day' there -were

hood of Hallway Trainman.
Tho men complain that under the>
pr<.nt syst-in of mileage pay thcli>t
wages are v.-ry low, flagmen receiving
us low as 34 cents a day.
Although the railroad managers are.
said to have hopes that the men wfli
yield and accept their arbitration offer
the employes' representatives are said
to be confident that the only outoorao
will be a strike. They despair of
I bringing about an agreement any other
