Sweepttg'.asaaranca that Japan 'will
witnaraw at -once irom aj.exico.was
given to President Taft by Ambassador
Uchida It is learned 'at. the peaca eon
ference at the White House, , j ; .
Xjuick conflrmation came from Mxied
City in the announcement that as are
ult of he marttal demonstration 'In
Texas, the secret; Japanese-Mexican
treaty has teen abrogated.: Uchida told
Tafttbat he - eouldl' rest aasnred that
hereafter Japan will. take no part what
ever in Mexican affairs. . '
Dinlomats and hien officials who have
been watcWnz the situation keenly re
alized that the announcement that Taft
had extreaded felicitions of friendliness
to Uehida was the merest formality of
diplomacy, .''aiv'
It was known that in this case, as is
the invariable rule in diplomacy, Presi
dent Taft and Baron Uehida agreed be
fore they parted as to what statement
should be made public, and under the
circumstances the statement made was
the moat obvious one possible, accord
ing to the diplomats. It is pointed out
that it was the -natural announcement
for this country to declare its friendli
ness for Jajten, and in turn for Japan
to do the same, in view of the fact that
recent developments" were satisfactory
to the United States.
It was learned today that the secret
Japan-Mexican treaty, the existence of
which was publicly denied by allofflcUls
was formed in April of last year, when
a. special agent of the Mikado went to
Mexico City and concluded the negotia
uons, since mat time tne unitea
States has been watching every ' devel
opment with the utmost care and obser
ved with . increasing displeasure the
growing activity of Japan in Mexico,
This continued until tht Japanese prac
tically controlled tbe Isthmus of Tehu-
antepei and the pprts on he weBt coast
of Mexico below Guaymas. This was
accentuated and corroborated when ten
days ago the . Pacific Mail Steamship
Company, realiz'ng the futility of com
bating the Japanese on the west coast
of Mexico, threw up its hands and an
nounced. Its withdrawal from Sallna
Cruz, the Pacific " terminus ; of the
Tehuantepee National railroad.
The secret treaty related chiefly t
trade relations and opened the doors of
Japan to Mexico. t was qf such a na-
t ure, however, according to reports hero
thatlt could have been used as the
basis for a much stronger, alliance. This
development' was what was chiefly fear
ed by Uncle Sam, and is said to bar

government, to act in forceful Jashioiv
The movement, of tbe troops to. the
border served a . two-fold purpose. t

to Dh i himself, that this country would
not stand any trifling,' It is positively
believed here that the twenty thousand
