Washington, D. C. March 21.?Dec? laration of tho utterly paoltjo inten? tions of the administration toward all tho world, and a tribute to tho bray pry and self-sacrifice of tho South, aro the features of a letter addressed by .Secretary of War J. M. Dickinson, him? self a Southernccn, to an organization of Confederate veterans In Fort Worth, Tex., which offered Its service's as infantry to "our common country." The offer came under date of March 15 from the "Fort Worth Confederate Grays,'' the letter stating that by unanimous vote the organization had directed Its officers to tender service "for duty at; United States soldier* on tho Mexican border, or in any other capacity as volunteers In the present crisis Involving the welfare of our common country." "You know what wc were In tho sixties," the letter conclude*, "and wo Me still Imbued with the same spirit." Bocrotary Dickinson declares himself happy tn know of ho reason for an? ticipating that our country will In the near future become Involved in hostil? ities with any other country. "We .'.re at peace with all the world," ho yaysj. "Our record In the movement's looking toward the maintenance of pp.a< c with other nations, ami tho ad-! Justment ??f International differences by arbitration and similar tnothods father than resort to arms. Is based Upon a tlxed policy that will not, I believe, be departed from. For us lo become Involved in war there would It Lye to be some unjustlflablo wrong brought upon us by another nation." The secretary says that even In such event arbitration undoubtedly would In invoke'!, adding that "the attitude of tho President in regard to peace and peace movements Is such that bo will not permit, so far as ho can prevent, pur government to become Involved In hostilities with any other government." The letter continues: "It Ik urifortunato for our country and for the peace of the world that n disposition Is shown by those who are reckless of the general welfare of mankind to stimulate, by fal.^.; .state men's and evil suggestions, distrust und jealousies between nations. Such thing:; have in former ttines brought .in tiio war.", but I believe that there Is a Stronger corrective now In public opinion than has ever heretofore ex? isted, and that they will be impotent now where hitherto they might have been effective. 'it Is, nevertheless, gratifying to have this manifestation of patriotism from Confederate veterans; This, how? ever, wus not needed to convince me that tho United States would have no more loyal supporters than the people of thp .South in any 'crisis Involving the welfare of our common country.' You gave an Illustration to the world of the long and constant sacrifice ilia: the people of the South were willing to make In sustaining h cause to which they gave tlnlr support. No adversi? ties and no losses availed to make them willing to abandon their cause. The sacrifice of life, and property was 1 adopted without stint or reserve, am! the end came early with complete ex? haustion of resources. This will stand ns ?ti Illustrious example to the peo? ple of our country If a period of ptorm an 1 stress should ever come, nn(] v. Ill be pointed to to stimulate them to meet every adversity and not be constrained by pecuniary losses or dis? turbances of business or destruction of commerce to make a peace without honor." i No *lfrn?, of Pence.

Madoro's rebel forces in tho North >vcro actively carrying on their cam? paign and the War Department had not rescinded any orders for quelling the insurrection. Civil war exists to-day as It did tlie day bcforo tho minister arrived, and those who had hoped that his coming would mean a speedy so? lution of tho problem admit now that tho minister meant Just what ho said when he nt.'ited that he bore from the rebels no terms of peace, and that he himself had no definite plans for bringing tho revolution to aai end. Mmautour has had long conversa? tions with tho President since his re? turn, but no announcement of their deliberations has been made. Unless the government agrees to. provide for another national election and agrees to permit the rebels to re? tain their arms while carrying out ft truce, there can bo nothing but a continuation of the lighting, accord in e to the rebels Many men entirely loyal to the Federal government believe this is true. General Diaz has announced that he contemplates a number of reforms, but hot until after the close of the revo? lution. Besides the subdivision ?f great estates, the government has exhibited a disposition to make changes in the t ?nks of some of the governors. Tho shifting of government officers, say the rebels, Is not adequate; it Is the pro? tection of the franchise, that underlies the motives of the revolutionists. Minister Llmantour's admonition to "Bally around General Diaz." and his warning that every day the revolt con? tinued would bring nearer foreign In? tervention, have not served tfc create optimism. Less than a week ago both foreign era and Mexicans believed that inter? vention wan Imminent. Thin feeling of anxiety was revived in a measure by Id ma n't out's warning uttered yester? day. President Taft's explanation of the mobilization of troops, made to Am h:,<ssndor d<- La Harra, and by h'.s com? munication to Minister Creel in a mes? sage received to;-day, allayed suspicion r< gardtng the intention of the United States.

Opinion Divided. FA Pa so; Texas, March 21,?Opinion among Mexican Insurrecto leaders to? day over the Interview of Senor Jose Yves Llmantour In Mexico ?'it\- was about equally divided between keen disappointment and hope that Senor j Idmantour still may have plans which he hay not been at liberty to make public. t ?n one point the Insurrecto leaders say they were unalterably determined, namely, they would not lay down their arms during peace negotiations. If there were to be any truce, It* would be ttn "armodtruce," This was the v. iw of Gonzales C-arza. Insurrecto Secretary of state; of Braullo Hdrhan do, secretary of state of Chihuahua, and. according to them, of Francisco 1. Madeto, the revolutionary president. "Senor I,*.-nan tour contradicts him? self," said Senor Garza. "In Paris h? said he recognized the reasonableness of the demands of his people, He states inferenllally that we have no reason on ot:r side nt all, and that pur demands, such as the maintaining of arrri3 witjlle pcaco plans aro considered, aro an absurdity. It is obvious that if wo laid flown our arms our leaders would ko to Jail, and It would bo sad to predict what would become of the rest." Customs ofllcers to-day receive,! word from Washington that shipments of amis and ammunition had been made from various parts of the Urtltdd States to border points in Texas and Arizona, and instructions were given to prevent their passage into Mexico. Great activity was manifested among the Mexican troops In Juarez to-day. All the prisoners In .Jail were taken OUt ami searched.

From there they must use their horses for eighty miles to the scene of trouble. The t roan's from Marathon, a short distance from Marfa. may march all the way from their barracks, as the railroad would I get them hut little nearer to their destination. There Is a warehouse at Chishos, in which much dynamite \a stored. If the raiders were revolutionists, it is thought likely that the explosive was tho real object of their Incursions.
