Mexican Troubles

Twenty thousand United States troops and a big part of the navy are to go to the border of Mexico.

The army and navy is on the move even now, having started Tuesday. The army will be located along the border in Arizona and Texas, and the fleet will be stationed at Galveston. It is thought intervention will take place before long, either by Uncle Sam or some of the other powers, as the revolution in Mexico is bad commercially for other countries.

Up to the present time it would seem that the rebels have the best of the scrapping.
