Dispatch of Marines to Capital, as
indicated hy Huerta. or AfBMd Rt>
covery of Hcntnn's Body, Never
C?ont?iplnfd by the Administra?
tion.
Washington, Feb. 26.?Pr?sident
Wilson today took the position that
for the United Slates to send marines
or armed forces of any kind into Mex?
ico without the consent of the gov?
erning authorities there would be an
act of war. He dec lared emphatically
that permission never had been
sought either of Gen. Huerta or Gen.
CarranSa and indicated (dearly no re
QUest of that character would be made
in the near future. The president an?
nounces, too, that no ehange in the
policy Of the American government to?
wards Mexico had been decided upon.
The president bad been asked par?
ticularly about teports that American
troops might be sent across the bor?
der to recover ths body of William 8.
Benton, and concerning published dis?
patches that the Cnited States con?
templated sending marines to Mexico
City to guard the American embassy.
One prSSS dispatch, saying Gen
Huerta himself had today stated that
lie had refused permission to the
United States to send 2,000 marines
to Mexico City, was shown to Pres.
Uent Wilson, who said no such a re?
quest ever had been made.
Administration officials expressed
the opinion that Gen. Huerta proba?
bly inspired the statement merely for
effect on the Mexican people, whom
he hoped to impress with his antip?
athy to the American government
as it i6 well known that permission
to land murines for legation guards
hus been freely accorded by Huerta to
other nations, including Great Britain
und Germany.
President Wilson explained that the
talk of sending marines to Mexico had
never passed the stage of mere dis?
cussion among administration olHcials.
He said that when Great Britain and
Germany sent men to Mexico City to
guard their legation there was a nat?
ural disposition here to determine if
the American government should take
similar action.
His Information, h' idded, was that
Mexico City was quiet and that there
was no danger to foreigners and Vnlls
Charge O'Shaughnessy and It.ar Ad?
miral Fletcher were aakea for opin?
ions about an embassy guard, both
advised that such a step was not nec?
essary. Admiral Fletcher took the
view that there was no occasion for
landing ftny armed forces.

SUSPECT ILLEGAL COMBINE.
Department of Justice Officers to In?
vestigate.
Washington, Feb. 27.?The depart?
ment of justice, it became known to
I night, has been looking into relations
( between the Pennsylvania railroad
! and the Norfolk & Western with the
idea of effecting a separatio of the
two roads or bringing suit under the
I Sherman anti-trust act. In the opinion
I of the deportment the two roads are
I competitive. The Pennsylvania owned
on January 1, 1913, $41,702,900 com?
mon and $11,320,000 preferred Nor?
folk & Western stock. On October
I 81, 1912, the outstanding stock of
j the Norfolk & Western was given as
! $120,312,400.
The department has had an eye on
I the connection with these ' >ads for
1 several months. Recently rcpresent
ativea of the Pennsylvania were told
; that the department looked on the
! roods as competitive and a suggestion
was made that Attorney General Mc
Reynolda would like a separation.
No assurances were given the depart?
ment at that time and none had been
received tonight, that the Pennsyl
I vania intended to give up its Norfolk
& Western stock.
While it was not understood that
j the Pennsylvania actually has thrown
I down the gau?e of b. die, it was
1 reported here that it might be ex
! pected to fight. It was said that Penn?
sylvania oiflclals do not regard the
Norfolk and Western aa a competitive
I line within the meaning of the Sher
