File No. 812.00/6119.

The Secretary of State to the Governor of Texas.

[Telegram.]

I have the honor to acknowledge the telegram which you addressed to the President today, wherein you urge intervention in Mexico and which has been referred to this Department. I need hardly assure you that the situation in Mexico continues to be watched with ceaseless vigilance. As you are aware, naval dispositions of a precautionary nature have been taken. Thus far, the policy of the President remains unchanged, subject, of course, to the evolution of the general situation and the ultimate effect of the sudden crisis of events occurring since Sunday at the Mexican capital.

Knox.
