Oh, maybe because they only thought "tres" (3) were allowed to cross ("TRESpassing). But it would have made more sense if only 2 crossed since the sign said NO trespassing.

Because 'tres' means 3 to the Mexicans.
Hence, 'No Trespassing' means (to them) 3 cannot pass. Since there are three of them, one has to be left behind.

They thought that only two could pass because in spanish Tres means 3 and they probably thought the sign said No Tres passing.

The one left behind was a trespasser?

he couldn't read English or he owned the river or they thought that only 3 could pass so they left him back (three is tres in mexican ...TRESpassing!)

Tres means 3 in spanish, so they thought only tres could pass.

Because only three of them could fit on the floating door to get into America illegally.

he let the other guy to look out for them since there should be NO tres passing but only dos passing or uno passing or cuatro passing or cinco passing and so on.
