I have been much relieved to hear this afternoon that an armed force of Texans did not cross the border and did not enter Mexican soil to recover the body of Vergara. A short while ago a delegation of some six or eight representative Texans. who live along the Rio Grande border. came to Washington to assist me in pushing a bill I had introduced for a roadway along the Rio Grande. These gentlemen advised me that the American citizens along the border. outside of the refugees and some parts of the Mexican element. were almost solidly in sympathy with Mr. Wilson and Mr. Bryan on the Mexican question.
