Whereas, In response to the requirements of said act, the citizens of Chicago have furnished a site and provided over ten millions of dollars, a sum deemed adequate by Congress; and. Whereas, Fiftj-nine nations have accepted the Invitation of the government of the United fctates to be present and participate iu said exposition, and fifty States and Territories of tho federal Union have indicated their Intention to participate, and have expressed their desire that said exhibition shall in all things be commensurate with the Importance of the event to be celebrated, and to be worthy of the wealth and character of the United states; and. Whereas, The government has already appropriated the sum of $1,04.000, and estimates are now before the committee on appropriations asking for further appropriations; Therefore, In order that Congress may be fully advteed aa to the scope and plan adopted by those having jurisdiction and management of said exposition, and, also, concerning the progress made, the amount of money expended, the manner of such expenditures and the necessity therefor, together with such further information concerning the amount available for said work, and the sum thut may become necessary to complete tho same and prepare tbe exposition for opening its gates to visitors, be It Resolved, That an Inquiry be and Is hereby ordered, to ascertain whether thoso obligated and undertaking to do so have Justly aud properly complied with the requirements of the said net of Coiictcss approved April 18DO. and tho subsequent provisions making appropriations for said exposition; whether the money, provided has been Judiciously expended; whether the number ot employes and appointees to carry out aud Into eilect the laws is excessive and their compensation reasonable or otherwise, and to ascertion and report the salary or compensation raid to each officer and employe; from what Slates the several appointments have been made, and generally whether In the care and conduct of tbe exposition proper care has been had, and

Not nioro than ten naturalization certificates shall be issued by any one court daring the tamo calendar day. SENATOR STEWART'S DISCOVERY. Senator Stewart, of Nevada, added a new feature to the silver qneetion by the introduction of a resolution founded on tho proposition that holders of silver bullion are entitled, under an existing law, never repealed so far as tho Senator can ascertain, to free coinage of silver. The resolntion directs the committee on the judiciary to inquire if any further legislation is necessary to make it the duty of the proper officials of the mint to receive and coin silver bullion for the benefit of depositors. When asked to-day what was the mean- . inaof his resolution. Senator Stewart said; "it is provided in the act of 1SS7 'that gold and silver bullion brought to the mint for coinage shall be received and coined by the proper otlicers for tbe benefit of the depositors.1 There is no other mode or manner provided for coinage in that Act, The liland act of 1S7S revives tho law of 1S37, relating to the coinage of illver bullion for the benefit of the depositor. The requirement that the o Ulcers , of the mint shall coin silver bullion for depositors aa provided in the aetof If 37 is unequivocal. That act makes it their duty to do so. The act of 1KS7 also prescribes the devices and superscriptions to be impressed npon tho silver dollar. The officers of the mint did riot hesitate to follow that act as to such devices and superscriptions. t Why they have not received and coined silver as prescribed in the act remains a mystery. The omission to enforce this provision of the law is unaccountable. It appears to have been overlook by all parties. I myself have hesitated to call attention to this law. fearing that there might be some other provision repealing, suspending or qualifying it. lint 1 have examined the question with as much care as my time wonld permit, and fail to find any repeal or modification, of the statute. The fact that the act of 1S73 requires the purohase and coinage of silver by the Secretary of the Treasury does not modify the preceding requirement that he shall also com for depositors. Dut before asserting on my own responsibility that the law makes no discrimination as to coinage between gold and silver. I thought it best to submit the Question to the judiciary committee. 1 6ball bo surprised If they they do not find that, as a -matter of law. it is tbe duty of the officers of the mint to coin silver bullion into standard dollars at the ratio of sixteen to one for the benefit of depositors." aong other bills introduced in the Ben

ate to-day were the following by Senator PefTen To establish a bureau of irrigation and to prescribe tbe duties thereof; to increase the circulating medium by issuing treasnry notes based on gold and silver coin and bullion and to amend the coinago laws accordingly: to amend the interstatecommerce act, and to prohibitoptions, trusts and combinations. liy Mr. Chandler: To regulate the rate of pensions, and to prohibit free railroad passes except in certain . cases. A resolution was offered by Mr. Stewart, &nd referred to the judiciary committee, instructing that committee to inquire whether any further legislation is necessary to compel tbe proper officers of the' mint to receive and coin silver.

ANOTHER WAR - IN KANSAS Famons County-Scat Vendetta Breaks Out Again with Eenewed Force. " Hob of Forty Men Arabnah Themselves for ths Purpose of Killing Judge Eotkin, but Fire on Six OfScers and Kill a Sheriff. Precial to the Indianapolis Journal. Arkalox, Kan., Jan. 5. A bloody conn-ty-ueat war baa broken out in this neighborhood, and one State officer has already lost bis life, while armed forces are now endeavoring to captnre and murder a district judge. A bitter feud has been on in Stevens connty ever since the killing of Samuel Wood, by James Brennan, on June 23, 1601. This feud culminated to-day in an ambush being laid by desperate men for the purpose of killing Judge Theodosius JJotkin, but timely warning gave the Judge opportunity to escape. Sheriii Dunn, with six deputies, started out to find tho wonld-bo assassins, but ran into them and were tired upon. Sheriff-elect Guyman fell at the first fire, but was unhurt and escaped by hiding in the rooks. The mob hunted for him, but failed to find him. II o is now at Liberal. Deputy Sheriff Nixon also bid in tho rocks at the mouth of the canyon and escaped without a wound. The mob numbered forty men. and the battle between the officers and the mob lasted from daylight break to sunrise. Judge Botkin was to hold court at Springfield to-day, Seward county, bofore its organization, was a part of Stevens county. This is a comity-seat war between Springfield and Arkalon. A mob, composed of the old Stevens county faction, was determined that Botkin should not hold court at Springfield. The sheriff and posso were on thoir way to escort the judge to his court. When near the Judge's hoase a Mrs. Larabie ran to Judge Botkin'a house and told him of his danger. He fled to Arkalon with his family, has taken refuge in a house, and his friends are holding the mob at bay. His friends are calling on all the able-bodied, law - abiding citizens throughout the county to rally to his support. Since July, 18SS, there has 'been turmoil in Stevens county. The county-seat contest between Woodsdale and Ilugoton culminated then in the masacre of Sheriff Cross and his deputies by Samuel Robinson and his gang of about twenty-seven men from Ilugoton. There was an abatement of the killing nntil Juno 23 last, when James Br ennan, of Richfield, Morton county, shot and killed Samuel Wood, of Woodsdale, the acknowledged leader of the Woodsdale faction. This killing occurred in fronj of the little church in Ilugoton, Judge Theodosius Bodkin having converted the church into a court-room, where the June term of the Stevens connty District Court was being held. James Brennan was arrested, and after two attempts to give him a trial for murder he was taken back to tbe jail at Hutchinson to await the third and last attempt to secure a jury this month. Since Wood's death hostilities have ceased in Ilugoton, and now apparently have been transferred over the boundary line into Seward county, which has been peaceful heretofore, though it has always been acknowledged that Springfield, the county-seat of Soward, has been in sympathy with Woodsdale and Arkalon, the prospective county-seat, in sympathy with Ilugoton. This feeling of favoritism, which unquestionably exists, has evidently risen to that point where it became uncontrollable, and the Springfield people have gone in to help out the Woodsdale faction. TWELVE VICTIMS. This new killing makes the number of men slaughtered in the counties of south western Kansas twelve, not counting tho famous Lesti-Coronado county-seat fight in Wichita county. The direct cause of the projected attack on Judge Botkin is the fact that ever since the feud began his sympathies have been with Ilugoton, though his homo is in Springfield. Seward county, forty miles away. James Brennan, who killed Samuel Wood, was his counselor and friend, and traveled about with him on his judicial journeys through the counties comprising tho district. At the first attempt to try Brennan in September last, at Ilugoton, Judge Botkin refused to preside, for the reason, he said, that Brennan had been his friend, so no trial was had. nor any attempt to secure a jury until Nov. 4, when Judge Wall, of Wichita, made the effort. Judge Botkin was in Ilugoton when the last attempt to try Brennan was made, and it is to bo remembered that when he drove out of town after court had failed to get a jury, the sheriff of Seward county went with him with a Winchester over his shoulder. But this was no strange sight in that place. The sheriff of Seward, county had simply taken 13 re n nan's place as Botkin'a body-guard. Judgo Botkin this morning sent tho following letter to Governor Humphrey, at Topeka: "Tbe plot to kill me was sprung here this morning. A mob of twenty to thirty Woodsdale men and abont fifty Springfield men laid plans to ambush me on my way to court this morning at Springfield. Sheriii Dunn, with six deputies, started out to scout the scene of auibuRb. They ran into au ambush themselves at daylight and Sheriff Dunn was killed. Tho other deputies made their escape. A. K. Kilgore and S. O. Brey, of Woodsdale, and C. L. Calvert, J. F. Van Voris and B. Orner, city marshal of Springfield, were the planners. The mob is now in possession of pringticld awaiting my arrival. Mrs. Larabie, of Springfield, reached my house at 10 a. m. on foot, coming three and a half mile with a message from tbe threo deputies who escaped massacre, that the mob intended to come to my house and kill me to-day if they found 1 was not coming to Springfield to court. I have just arrived at Arkalon. These outlaws, under tbe dis guise of the Citizens' Alliance of Woodsdale and Sorinaiield. should be hunted down, but the civil authorities ot this county are now powerless, as we have no sherilfc Please advise inc I will remain here until I hear. Botkin," Troops Ordered to tbe Scene. TorEKA. Kan., Jan. 5. Governor Humphrey has sent a company of soldiers to tho scene of trouble in Stevens connty, under command of Adjutant-general Roberts. They will reach the scone to-morrow afternoon.

BULGARIA REMAINS FIRM

Will Kot Rescind the Decree Expelling the French Correspondent Topper's Scheme for Getting Even with the United States Advice from a London , Newspaper Tho Grip Bacillus. THE CHADOUINE INCIDENT. Bulgaria's Keply to the French Protest Against i: i pell log the Correspondent. Special to the IndJarapolis Journal. Paris. Jan. 5.There is every reason to say that tho statement published to the effect that the dispute between France and Bulgaria would be peacefully settled is based npon hopeful foundations. France, it may be said, stands in the present diplomatic troublo in about the position that the United States stands towards CLili. In other words, it is the casejof a very weak country making faces at a very strong one. The following is the reply sent by the Bulgarian Miuister of Foreign Affairs to M. Lenal, the French agent at Sofia, protesting against the expulsion of M. Chadouine, the agent at Sofia, of the Agence llavas, which, it wSll be remembered, led to tbe severance of diplomatic relations, such as they were, between France and Bulgaria: 'Sofia, Dec. 12,1691. "The undersigned Minister for Foreign Affairs of the principality, in reply to the note verbale addressed to him by the gerant of tbe agency and consulate-general of France, on Dec. 11, relative to the expulsion of M. Chadouine, a French citizen begs to refer M. le gerant to the reiterated complaints which the Bulgarian government addressed to M. Lanel against the correspondent of the llavas agency, and of several other foreign newspapers who. for a certain time past, had taken upon himself to systematically disseminate in the European press false and calumnious news inimical to Bulgaria and its government. The gerant of tho Agency, etc., is aware that the government of the principality on two previous occasions had decided npon the expulsion ol M. Chadouine, but did not proceed to tho execution of that measure, hoping that the effect of the information given to the agency of the republic would be such as to induce the latter to change his course of action in regard to the government of a country whose hospitality be had for many years enjoyed. Nevertheless, M. Chadouine continned to procure tbe publication in newspapers of which he was avowedly the correspondent of news mendacious in itself and calculated to bring discredit upon Bulgaria abroad; and also by his intrigues within the principality he contributed to place ditliculties in the waj of its government. In order, therefore, to put an end to this state of things the said government regrotfully and with no intention to infringe upon treaties now in force, found itself under the necessity to expel a correspondent whoso continued presence in Bulgaria constituted a danger to the security of the country. "Moreover, in the opinion of tbe Bulgarian government, tho measures taken against M. Chadouine constitute no violation of existing treaties, seeing that tbe said treaties are absolutely silent as regards the treatment of foreigners guilty of interfering in tbe interior political affairs of the country, and who have, by their acts or writings, placed difficulties in tho way of its sovernment. In matters ot public tranquillity and the respect which is due to the institutions of the country the Bulgarian government conceives itself justified in following the principles which govern the conduct of all states. "Therefore, the undersigned, while regretiug to have to inform the gerant ot the agency, etc., that he is unable to withdraw the measure, yet ventures to hope that the government of the republic, guided by its sense of justice and equity, will take into account the higher motives of policy which have dictated the conduct ot the government of the principality in this regard aud will refrain from attributing to the incident a character which might aflect tho good relations between France and Bulgaria. Tbe undersigned avails himself of the opportunity to offer to the gerant of tho agency, etc, the assurance of his highest consideration. "Grecoff." This is the second time an attempt has been mado to expel M. Chadouine. On the first occasion tho proceedings was foiled by the intervention of several members of the diplomatic body, the chief among whom was Count do Sonnazel, tbe Italian minister. M. Chadouine, like several other foreign journalists, has fallen under -M. Stambulofi's displeasure for having discharged his dn:es in too independent a fashion. Bulgaria Defies France. London, Jan. 5. The statement that the Bulgarian government has politely declined to rescind the decree expelling the French journalist, Chadouine, from Bulgaria is confirmed. Tho Standard's Paris correspondent says: "It is officially denied that M. Kibot, the French Foreign Minister, has sent a note impnting bad faith to Bulgaria. There is no reason to believe that the matter will bo arranged arnica- ' ADVICE Foil SIR CHARLES. What an English Paper Thinks About Tupper's Plan of Fighting the McKinley Law. London, Jan. 5N-A deputation from tho Southampton Chamber of Commerce has waited upon Sir Charles Tupper, the Canadian high commissioner to England, for the purpose of urging upon him the claims ot Southampton to be the port of departure in England for tbe steamers of tbe proposed Anglo-Canadian mail sef vice. After listening to tho views of the deputation Sir Charles promised to consider their statements and arguments. He said that the proposed service would form an alternative ronte to tho far East in the event of any obstruction preventing the passage of steamers through the Suez canal. Ho added that tho proposed service arose iu consequence of the McKinley. tariff in the United States, which had struck a serious blow at the trade of Canada. It bore, he said, especially bard on the Canadian farmers. Sir Charles was happy to say that the intention of the McKinley act to subordinate Canada to tho great Kepublio bad not proved successful. It had tended to solidify the commercial relations between the Dominion and Great Britain, which latter country atlorded equally as good amarketfnr Canadian goods excluded lrom the United States. He added that ho had found that Great Britain and the Dominion felt that the time had arrived when they should not depend on a foreign port for their mails. They could send passengers and mails for the far Fast byway of Canada in a much shorter period than was now occupied in sending them by way of Xew York. The Chronicle, in an editorial this morning, says: "A more effoctiTe method of realizing Sir Charles Tupper's aspirations would be unrestricted reciprocity between England and Canada. We do not expect that Sir Charles will agree with us when wo affirm that it would be better for Canada to establish free trade, both with America and ourselves, but it is of the highest importance to preserve friendly relations with America. If wo are to use tho Canadian Pacific railroad as a highway to the East, this is an additional reason why Canada should aim not only to strengthen tho bonds of union with England, but to maintain such relations with America as will obviate any just use of American jealousy against England. America hopes to compel the entrance of Canada into the Union by the severity of her commercial policy. The best way to defeat such tactics is not to be lotina in imitation lor a nation of 5,000,000 cannot wage a successful commercial war against a nation of G5.0G0.000 but in a policy of unrestricted commercial intercourse with the rest of tho world." Jnmped Into llarbed-Wire Fence. London, Jan. 5. An accident happened yesterday to Lady Hesketh, formerly Miss Florence Emily Sharon, daughter of William Sharon, of Nevada, formerly a Senator of the United States. Lady Hesketh was following the Grafton hounds, near Sutcrave, 8hs jumped a brook, and trfcea her

horse landed on the far side of the water be became entangled in a barbed-wiro fence. The animal plunged about wildly, and it was with tho greatest difficulty that Lady Hesketh was rescued lrom her perilous position. She is a good horsewoman, and kept her seat despite the frantic leaps of the horse to rid himself of the sharppointed pieces of iron which were lacerating his tlesh. Lady Hesketh escaped with a lew slight cuts. The Influenza llaeillus Discovered. Berlin, Jan. 5. Dr. Ffeifler, son-in-law of tho distinguished Professor Koch, has discovered the influenza bacillus and has transplanted it in six cases with complete success. He has also discovered the original cause of the infection. The bacillus of influenza is the smallest bacillus yet discovered. 'Anoth er doctor of Berlin, an assistant in tbe city hospital, discovered the microbe of influenza almost simulaneously with Dr. Pfeiffer. The latter discovered the germ in the sputum, while the former fonnd it in the blood. Micro-organism strongly resembles the common inflammatory microbe Streptococcus pyogenes. Both doctors nave reared it artificially and have inoculated animals with the pure cultures. It is not known, however, whether either has obtained a specifio core from the colturea. British TTar Ships Hare Poor Boilers. London, Jan.

The Vulcan, the new protected torpedo depot ship, is now being repaired at a cost of 3150.000, and, according to the Gazette, the Thunderer and Devastation will be tbe next vessels to have their boilers changed. Bloody Work of a Carpenter. Berlin, Jan. 5.

The cause of this bloody outbreak is not known. Tobacco Riots In Persia. Teheran, Jan. 5. The priests continue to interdict the use of tobacco. They also clamor for the expulsion of the members of the tobacco corporation. Yesterday a riotous mob assembled at the Shah's palace to demand satisfaction.

CHILI BEADY TO APOLOGIZE

Report that tho Republic Will Make Amends for the Valparaiso Outrage. Minister Montt Appears on the Floor cf (he Lower House and Talks in a Conciliatory Manner Capt. Schley at San Francisco. TVIIX ACT FAIR. Minister Montt Throws Out Hints that Chill Will Make an Apology. rf rial to the iD&anaiHiHs Journal. Washington, Jan. 5. The appearance of Minister Pedro Montt npon the floor of the House of Kepresentatives at noon to-day gave unmistakable evidence that Chili had come off her high horse, and was disposed to assume a more courteous and apologetlo attitude. The Minister's appearance came soon after unofficial advices had been received that the Chilian authorities had cabled Minister Montt to make ample apology for the outrage on the crew of the United States ship Baltimore, and it appeared to confirm these' unofficial advices. Whether he was acting on orders or not Senor Montt was in the most courteous and conciliatory mood. He was piloted abont and introduced by Governor McCreary, of Kentucky, who is a member of tbe House committee on foreign relations, and tbe only member of the House invited to the recent dinner given by the Chilian minister. Mr. Montt made a most favorable impression by his easy manner and his constant emphatic assnrrances that a peaceful settlement of the Chilian troubles would certainly ensue. With all the vehemence of a Spaniard he shook his head at the possibilities of war, and brought his bands together to emphasize his belief that Chili would do everything that was fair and honorable. There was a disposition among members to meet Minister Montt in the same spirit he showed. In fact, it was considerable of a love-feast, in which the representative of Chill and the representatives of the United States mingled, chatted and exchanged expressions of cordiality in a way which was anything but belligerent. It is said that Mr. Montt anticipated the possibility of a special message from the President, and he wished to be on hand to hear it in Eorson. The message did not come to-day, owever. and it may be delayed for several d iye, until Judge Advocate-general Kemey telegraphs from San Francisco the result of his personal inquiry among the sailors of the cruiser Baltimore, which has just landed there. Chairman Blonnt. of the foreign relations committee, who will have much to do with the coarse to be pursued in Chilian affairs, was in the House of Kepresentatives today for the first time since his return from Georgia. He would not discuss the Chilian trouble further than to say that no request for a resolution would be submitted by his committee asking the President or Secretary Blaino to eend the Chilian correspondence to Congress. If the administration desires to submit the correspondence Mr. Blount thought they should be left to take this course without suggestion or embarrassment from the legislative branch. He said the secret negotiations between this country and Chili could be better carried on by allowing the officials at this end to follow their own judgment rather than by upsetting negotiations and inflaming public opinion by a demand from the Ilouse of Kepresentatives for all the papers in the case. Secretary Blaine and Senor Montt had a long conference at the former's residence to-day. It is rumored that Mr. Montt has received a copy of the report of the fiscal on the Baltimore incident, and that he furnished a copy to Mr. Blaine to-day, bnt this report cannot be verified. All that is known about his conference with Mr. Blaine this morning is that it was of sufficient length and importance to keen Mr. . Blaine away from the Cabinet meeting. An Unqualified Apology. New York, Jan. 5. The Herald's correspondent at Valparaiso cables as follows: I hear this evening that the Chilian government has cabled orders to Minister Pedro Montt, at Washington, to make a sincere apology to the United States for tbe unfortunate and deplorable attack upon the Baltimore's sailors on Oct. 16 last. The apology. I am told, is unqualified in its character. Other matters which have been in dispute between Chili and the United States ore to be speedily considered by tbe new administration. "Froln semi-official sources I learn that the reason why tbe Santiago police are kept in the vicinity of the American legation is that the intendente of tbe city is daily in receipt of letters containing threats to burn tbe legation. I am informed on the same authority that the government desires to have the police near at hand so as to prevent the execntion of any such threats. It is noticed here that many of those who cherish ideas of war between the United States and Chili are friends of Balmaceda. "I now Jearn that the German minister. Baron Gutschmidt, offered the services of his conntry as mediator on his own personal responsibility. This is in line with his course of action ever since the present government came into office. Ho has pursued it with a view to getting ud a reputation for himself as a diplomatist. He gave many hints to Senor Matta, late Minister of Foreign Affairs, but has refrained from oHermg any advice to the new Cabinet," SCIILEY AT SAN FRANCISCO. Talks on the Valparaiso Outrage and Reiterates Ills Previous Statements. San Francisco, Jan. 5. Tbe United States cruiser Baltimore arrived here at IhSO this morning from Valparaiso via Callao. Captain Schley was immediately interviewed by a reporter. He stated that his report had been forwarded to Washington and he was not at liberty to make any statements concerning its contents. He stated, however, that he could see no reason to modify his former telegraphic report based on tbe investigation of the ValEaraiso ontrage by the ofiicers of tho altimore. "My men," said he. "thirtyfour in number and entirely unarmed, were attacked at almost the same moment in half a dozen different parts of tho district of the city, a mile and a half wide, by mobs varying from three hundred to two thousand men. Two were killed, live seriously stabbed and eighteen more bruised and hurt. Every one of them was stabbed from behind, not one in front. If my sailors had been armed they could have defsnded themselves, tfor when even two of them turned at bay the Chilians fled. If they had had knives 1 believe each one could have chased a dozen Chilians. The wounded are all well now, but I cannot permit them to be interviewed at present." The riot lasted about an hour and a half. Captain Schley's attention was called to the report of the procurator fiscal, of Valparalso, which stated that all but two witnesses declared that the police had done their full duty. "I do not know what my men testified." said tbe Captain, "but I am sure it was nothing like that. After much trouble, the Chilian authorities allowed Lieut. Henry McCrea to be present at tbe examination of the men. bnt tbey swore him to secrecy, aud he cannot make publio what was said. They also made tho sailors sign two papers written in Spanish, of tbe contents of one of which I am ignorant. May be the procurator makes his statement on the strength of something contained in these. The Baltimore left Valparaiso Dec. 10, rather suddenly. Oar cruise has nofbecn a pleasant one. We were in Chilian waters eight month, aud it was liko lying out at sea, with no chance or invitation to go ashore. The feeling towards us In Chili, is not cordial, to say the least. I think tbe statement iu this morniug's papers that Chill intends to oiler a full apology is very doubtful. Following is the list of men badly hurt in tho riot: George Pautes, J. Anderson. J. Hamilton, J. Davidson and J. W. Talhott. All th6e are now fully recovered, though at one time their lives were in danger. Charles W. Kigmu was killed on shore and William Tnrnbull died of his wounds shortly afterwards." Movements of Steamers. London. Jan. 5. Sighted: Majestic. Ktbiopa, Havel, Vcendam and Rotterdam, from New York.

PLOTTING MEXICAN PBIESTS The Clergy Said to Bo flacking Garza in His Revolutionary Movement. President Diaz Disliked by Leaders ot the Church United States Corporal Shot bj a Picket Chasing the Raiders. MEXICAN FLOTTEUS. Garza Not a Plunderer, but a Revolutionist Backed by the Prleta. El Paso, Ter., Jan. 5. It has just been learned that the leaders in tho present revolution on the lower frontier have been wcrking in this neighborhood for recruits at least since last June, when it was no ticed that many laborers at the small ranches between here and Kincon. N. M., were induced to leave and proceed to the neighborhood of Laredo. These people made a very scant living wor&ing in thefieldsand herding, and lived in mud-jackals along the Kio Grande. There is no doubt they conld be easily induced to enter tbe present revolution. It has also been learned that the headquarters of the revolutionists are now situated at New Orleans, bnt they contemplate transferring them to El Paso, which would aliord a bettor Dase ox operations. The scheme is backed by a largo amount of money, and when a foothold is obtained in Mexico the revolution will begin in earnest. The idea of thoso backing the movement is to cut olf that portion of Mexico north of a line extending from Lixpan on the Gulf of Mexico to Mazatlan on the Pacific ocean and declare a republic under the Constitution, aa promulgated in ib57. The papers found in the saadie-uags of Pablo Mi.noz. one of the captured revolutionists, throws a great deal of light on tbe situation. It proves conclusively that what was foreshadowed four days ago is true, and that is that the clerical party is furnishing the money with which the campaign is being conducted. In all the forays made by Garza he has not stolen or plundered the smallest article. On the other hand, ho has paid cash at top prices for what he has needed. Where all this money was coming from has been puzzling the American and Mexican authorities. It is now ascertained thatMontczdeOcea, ; Bishop of Monterey, is the financial agent of the' clerical party In supplying Garza with funds. Secret officers have traced packages by express, and papers found in Garza's camp confirm the fact. Summed np it is this: Bishop Montez de Ooea and lturbide are virtually one, and they hate Diaz and so does Garza. They furnish the. money and Garza does the work. There is not a word of speculation in this. So far as Garza attempting any trouble on this side is concerned, it is the veriest nonsense. When he attacked the United States troops under Captain ftourke, it was nnder necessity. His camp was surprised at nicht and he opened fire and fled. So it has been all along the sole ambition of tbe Garza revolutionists to get across tbe river. Inflammatory pronunciamentos, over different signatures, calling Mexicans to arms against tyranny, are constantly being circulated on both sides of tbe Rio Grande, the latest being by Juan Flore a. If the United StAtes authorities keep Garza's forces well rounded up, instead of capturing them, they will be forced to cross into Mexico, and then the real tocsin of war will be sounded. The clerical party is strong and rich, and Diaz's imprisonment of the priests makes them bitter. The Mexican administration desires to suppress every mention of tbe revolution, and pretends to believe there is no trouble brewing, but their actions and preparations are at varisnce. The government realizes the inevitable, and is actively at work. As a result of the trouble, even Mexican silver has fallen in price considerably. Foreigners who have developed Mexican industries are alarmed. The foreigners are all supporters of the Diaz government. It is true he rules more like an emperor than a president of a republic but it is this whioh gives foreigners security. The present uprising is seeking for a military leader, but at present there is none available. All governors and generals are well paid and rich and tbey will stay by Diaz, because they have all to lose and nothing to gain. Besides, they are all growing old. An Uprising of the Chnrch Party, frecial to tbe Indianapolis Journal. Monterey, Mex., Jan. 5. The excitement here over the revolutionary movement against President Diaz, inaugurated by Catarino Garza, is on the increase. It has been learned here from an authentic sonrco that there is to be a general uprising of what is known as the church party thronghnt Mexico in support of tbe revolution within the next four weeks. It is also learned from the same source that the recent visit of Catarino Garza to the City of Mexico was mado for the purpose of con ferring with leading officials in the Catholic Church. In beginning his movement last September Garza had no funds with whicn to carry it on successfully and ho depended solely upon the svmnathv of tho onnressed neoole in north ern Mexico to augment his resources. It is believed here tbathe wonld have been suc cessful at that time had his attack npon Guerro and Mler resulted differently. The little band of revolutionists were, how ever, scattered, and Garza sought reluge in the mountains of Tarn ah ui las. bile still in hidinir he received a summons from a prominent and wealthy Catholio citizen of the City of Mexico to come to the capital incog nito and ho would be civen funds to carry on the campaign in the northern Dart of the reDublic. while a plan of campaign wonld be mapped out lor tbe people of the southern States. Grza m mm . - ? 1 a. answerea tne can ana was wen receivcu oy the instigator of the church people's move ment, who. iu addition to supplying Uarza with a considerable amount of money, caused a secret appeal for aid of the revolution to all faithfnl and de vout Catholics in the tflpublic. Numerous comes of this proclamation have been dis covered here, and are in tho hands of the covernment. As a result of the under standing President Diaz has increased his vigilance, and priests aro being ouietiy arrested npon trivial charges in all parts of Mexico and sent to iail. and not many of them will escape alive. The belief is growing here that Garza's operations along the Kio Grande frontier are intended as a blind to draw thA Mexican trooDS to that quarter, when the real leader and an army will suddenly appear in tho States of Cmbnabua or Durango and advance on tne isiiy ox aicxico. CHASING THE UE1SELS. Hand of Mounted Mexicans DUperied Cor oral Shot toy a Picket. Rio Grande City. Tex., Jan. 5.
