TO AUGMENT FORGE ! ALONG BORDER LINE l . MAKING PLANS TO LARGELY INI CREASE DIVISION UNDER GENERAL CARTER. THE RANKS ARE DEPLETED ] Heavy Drafts Will Have To Be Laid Upon tke Eastern and Western Departments For 14,000 Men.?Form IlnX* j ni in mv j wiiiw Washington.?With only three Amorkan soldiars available for the protection el each mile of the Mexican border and certain knowledge that ^nantitiee of arms and ammunition are *>eing smuggled across the line, consideration has been given in military circles to the dispatch of fresh troops. The possibility that as a result of -the steady northward movement of Federal troops in Mexico the numert<us Constitutionalist bands may be tempted to cross into Texas and Arizona to escape capture has also been taken into consideration and though no orders have been issued, plans of the Army have been fully developed to largely increase the maneuver division under General Carter. The augmented force would thus be in a position to deploy in strength along the northern border of Mexico or in case of need could form the military unit of a successful expeditionary force. t/wing to tne considerable numuer of troops sent to Hawaii and the Canal Zone the detention in China of some military force, and the maintenance of an Army of about 12,000 men in the Philippines, the total strength of the mobile Army remaining in the continental United States, over and above the complete Army #orce, "which must be maintained in their posts, is only about 32,000 men. Of these 1,000 are now under General Carter in Texas and to bring the strength of his division up to possible requirements heavy drafts would be laid upon the Eastern and Western department, aggregating 14,000 men. Arms to Huerta Government. Washington.?President Wilson has granted permission for the exportation of 2,000 rifles and 850,000 cartridges to the Huerta Government. All hut 1,000 rifles which go to Vera Cruz from New Orleans will be shipped from El Paso via Juarez. Some ?? the latter already have gone. Al- I together it was the first permission granted since June 25, and many applications have been turned down, it W OS UWUUW U*J VlMUgC uau uccu Made in the Government's policy and officials pointed out tnat tne neutrality proclamation permitted the President to authorize shipments in his discretion. Crop Moving Fund Forwarded. Washington. ? The Government's $50,000,000 crop moving fund is being rapidly forwarded to the various cities in which the National hanks have complied with the conditions imposed fcy the Treasury Department. Banks hi several Southern cities already dtave sent their list of securities to the Department for approval and these are being examined as to their acceptability. While the exact amount ? deposits already placed has not fceen announced at the Department, it is understood several hundred thousand dollars have been sent into the larger reserve cities in the South. Foreign Pressure on Huerta Regime. Washington?Great Britain and Japan are among the Nations which hare interposed their influence upon ?be Huerta Administration in Mexico fcx support pf the efforts of the United States to bring about a peaceful setMement the revolution. While the Administration officials were slient regarding this phase of the publication there was a lively interest manifest in diplomatic circles here as to the probable effect of foreign pressure on the Huerta Government. Venezuelan Revolt Crumbles. Caracas.?The cruiser Des Moines, which is in Venezuelan waters to protect American lives, is steaming toward Ooro, a town in the state of x Falcon, recently recaptured by Government troops. The Venezuelan Government announces that General Jurado, the Federal commander, had captured the remaining Castro revolutionaries in the State of Falcon. The fficial statement adds that the revolutionary hands in the State of Tachfc-a have been driven across the frontier where they were captured. Rapid Progress on Tariff. Washington.?Rapid progress on the tariff bill was made in the Senate. The wool schedule was disposed of so far as it will be considered by the Senate and a deep inroad was made into the free list. Though no vote was taken on free raw wool, the show?ig on that having been deferred until the bill comes from the committee of the whole, the Finance Committee rares on wool manufactures were agreed to without amendment and there was indications tliat raw wool rsmalj free.
