The red and white floats iirouill.v over the
old gold.
Tlio great Thanksgiving foot ball battle
was won by Nebraska by tbo slender margin
of two points. The contest was between the
elevens of tlio University of this state and
that of Iowa. The score was -0 to 18 about
u B to 1 base ball panic.
It was the most important game that was
ever played In this neck 'o the woods , tbo
principal importance being whether the Pro
hibitionists were to provo their superiority
over the Antelopqs. They won year before
last and last year made It a draw. But yos-
lorday they went down In the dust , or the
snow , more properly speaking , in line style.
The result was like a thunderbolt from rt
clear sky to the brawny athletes from across
the river. They were disappointed , aye
oven uazcd , for while they came here with a
prescr.Umcnt that Captain Johnston's
sturdy boys might make the afternoon inter
esting for them they trusted to their
greater experience and Iowa luck to
smother the Nebraskans in the end.
The followers of the whlto and red were
exceedingly Jubilant after the ccmlliet , as
well they might be , for they hardly
dreamoil of repulsing and routing their old
time and persistent foe.
Still another important feature attached
to yesterday's game is that it leaves but
llttlo doubt which state has the honor of
claiming n short dozen of the most muscular
nnd agile uMilctcs on the western turf , and
her name is Nebraska.
CliniiKuil n Condition.
For years the wearers of the old gold have
looked upon the Nebraskans as mere Lill-
puts in thnir hands , willi whom they could
dally and toy as they nloascd upon the grid
iron. The tie of lant year they claimed was
only a faux pas a llukc , and could not occur
nirain In a hundred yours. Last , evening ,
however , as the red sun sank in li is icy bed
they awakened tolli'i fuel the Antelopes had
taken a progressive step in the science of
the game , and in fact , had grown altogether
too slronir ami too healthy for them :
There were fully 1,000 people Inside
Young Men's Christian association park.nud
that , too , despite the fact that : i stilf wind
came down from the home of the w.ilrusand
white hear , with an ediro on it as keen as a
razor. The heavens ulso were hung with
heavy , leaden clonus , "while the earth was
scantily mantled with the beautiful. It was
a day well calculated for putting away good
dinners and hugging radiator and base
burner , "instead of standing out In the ro-
frigcrutlvo breezes , and imagining you were
having a high old time watching n score of
men nile themselves upon top of each other ,
roll off , knock one another1 down , run a short
ways , then jump Into another kicking ,
squirming , scrambling , reticulated and inex
tricable lieap.
And there were many ladies in the crowd
some from abroad , but generally resident
bore gall.v decorated tally-hos , handsome
victorias nnd styllshurags. Had the weather
been less hyperborean , and had Old Sol suen
proper to Imvo suffused the Hold with his
bland smiles , it is safe to say thcro would
have been several thousand more. All fash
ionable Omaha would have been there , any
way , for it is the haul ton who arc in such
clover touch Just now with the rough-and-
tumble , catch-as-catch-can , go-as-you-picaso
fad , yclept for short foot ball.
lliiKllinl from tha Kick Oir.
Well , I don't blame the swells and swell-
esses one whit , it Is a blood thrilling sport ,
( Illicit and decisive and full of that dash and
boldness that both men and women admire
In men. That the battle between the two
states yesterday afternoon was a royal cno ,
I hardly think you can llml any person
who was there to deny. It was
n pyrotechnic athletic display , full
of vim nnd frost from the moment
Hoferco Charlie Wilson tooted ills little
gcrman silver whistle until the Jig was nlti-
tudinlicd. It was one of the prettiest lights
Of the holiday season slap , bung , biff , rush ,
scramble , scrlmnuigo nnd collision nil
through , and not a man ruled off , knocked
out or disqualified , cither. The wild huzzas
of tlio male spectators ami tno soprano
plaudits of the indies , as they drew their
delicate noses down in fur nnd feather ami
disturbed the franocd moisture with their
little wootale footsies , were evidence enough
that all were enjoy Ins Immensely the gladi
atorial prowess of the collegians in their
sporty calisthenics upon the gridiron.
Time was called by Koferco Wilson ct U:15. :
Hut , excuse me , I forgot to mention that
lieutenant Jim Wright of Fort Omaha ,
panoplied in a big grizzlyJicar coat , and
with his whisker.- * full of lemon ice , officiated
most creditably in the position of umpire ,
in fact , his work was still another feature of
tlio contest. And before going further I
want to mention that there was yet another
conspicuous feature of ttie great strife , and
that was the wretched and ludicrous wonc
of a ctupto of wooden policemen whim
the' chid had sent out thi'ru to keep
the ring-the Held , 1 mean clear of Intrud
ers and to preserve order. So far as the ar
rangements which had beea imule by the
' Young Men's Christian nsbOi'iutloH were con
cerned , tluyeru all right. The trouble was
that its members could iiot bo In all p.vts of
the grounds at once , and the brace of cop
pers who were on hand got Interested In thu
game and let men and boys swarm over the
Hold at will , At times they followoj the
players like a Hock of stampeded sheep , and
frequently it wan necessary tn call time in
order thai the game could proceed , it was
the utter inettlclony of thcso two bluecoats
that marred what wus otherwise a superb
tpcetaclo a grand and plucky game.
N > Ur.ii > liii'ii Kicellcut JnterJYriiiro.
As 1 said before. Keierco Wilson called
panic at : tK : > , but before plunging into the
technique of the t > ume allow me to say that
the llawucyu lads were lamentably weak In
their dcfe/.so , and most all of their gains
were mudu through tha center , Meyer. Kill-
oil , Hess and Aldrldi working nearly all
their points in on this style of play. Ne
braska's interference was admirable , and
vrui ttie. cauje of much aituulshuieut to the
crowd , who really looked to see her go down
an easy victim. It also nonplussed Captain
Klllott's forces , and in consequence the
Antelopes secured many big gains nround
the ends. Nebraska , ton , ns remarkable ns
it seems , had a fashion of moving before the
ball was snapped back , and this trick greatly
disconcerted hof opponents , who often found
It n big Job to mnUo out who had captured
the resilient sphere.
On every hand were hoard , warm words of
praise for big Flippin , Nebraska's left halt
hack , and Little Yout , whose dashes around
the end were phenomenal , their blocking ,
bucking and Interference bclnir magnificent.
Oiirv and Wlupplc , the Omaha boys , also
played a superb game , as did Big Yout nnd
Frank , outside of the tatter's punting ,
which was poor. Meyer played a be.iutlf ill
game for Iowa , barring ono bad fumble ,
which resulted subsequently In giving Ne
braska n twotit.v-tlvo yard run. Aldrich and
I less wore also Hnxvkeye heroes.
The two teams strueglcd ferociously for a
quarter of an hour before Nebraska got a
coal , I.ltllo Yont achieving tlio honor by a
llfty-yard sprint nround the left end , carried
part of the way by the sheer force of ble
Fllppln's sturdy legs and broad shoulders
and his brother's intelligent clearing.
Antelope * to the I'ront.
Nebraska opened with the ball , nnd it took
her Just live minutes , by masterly runs by
Llltlo Yont , Fltppln and Illg Yont , to carry
It to Iowa's twenty-five yard line , and
Jomlman.V 1 how the crowd did yell and howl.
There was enough college gibberish in the
flacculcnt atmosphere to keep the north nart
of town resonant until another Thanks
giving rolls nround. And then , when Flip-
i > iii and Ulg Yont , well backed by Onry and
Whipplo , by sheer force carried the pig
skin to the Prohibitionists' ten yard line ,
the roar was almost deafening and the de
votees of the roil and the white were lit sub
jects for pndded cells.
Hut , luchuduyl rl ht hero Iowa , in a
fumble , took the hill and thu Hawkeye
youths and maidens opened their frozen
kissers in Joyous acclaim. Iowa's rush line ,
her strongest clement , was working well ,
and Hess , Aldrich , Terrell and Elliott , the
latter by a twenty-yard run , carried the ball
well back on Nebraska's territory. Hess ,
too , would have succeeded in eluding tlio
whole red and white pang entirely but for a
flying tackle from the agile Mr. Wiggins.
Not having made their live-yard gain In
three downs. Sawyer caught the snapbacic
and passed tlio ball back to Elliott , who sent
it Hying for Ilfty yards over the gridiron.
Nebraska then took the leather and a good
gain was made round tno right end , after
which Llttlo Yont made his famous sprint
for the llrst touchdown. Frank kicked a
goal.Timo
Time : Fifteen minutes actual playing
'time. Score Nebraska , 0 ; Iowa , 0.
IOWH Kvoncil Her I'p.
With twenty-five minutes more to play in
the llrst half the Old Gelds gained twenty
yards with a Hying wedge , and twenty more
on the next down , through plucky , play on
the part of Hess , Aldrich , Klllott and Hope-
well. Then they lost llvo yards for an off
side play. No gain was made on the next
down. On the following Elliott carried the
oval Dag to within n foot of Nebraska's goal
line , and the excitement was Intense. Then
the next moment , when Terrell managed to
score the lirsl touchdown against Nebraska ,
the Hawkeye dervishes went fairly daft.
The yellow-boribboned youths looked at the
girls , then fell on each other's necks and
hugged each other for very Joy , and in n
score of ether ways Indicated their mad de
light. Rogers kicked the goal and the score
was a tie (1 ( to 0. Time : Sixteen minutes.
1 K YonlV Touchdown.
The Antelopes were now working lilcc Tro
jans , and advanced the ball by bold , steady ,
rapid playing of Ourv , Whipplo , Kllpnin ,
Wilson and the Yonts to the ten-yard line of
Uieillawkuycs. Fllppin followed by a bull-
iiko break1 through the center for five more ,
Whipplo paining nnolher by similar tactics.
Nebraska's herculean half back hero made
up his mind that it , was time for him to add
n few points to his side's score , and on the
next effort he .scored a touchdown. Frank
blundered in his attempt to kick goal , nnd
the score stood 10 to 0 in Nebraska's favor.
Time : Ten minutes.
Iowa again tiot off with the favorite Hying
wedge , and Hess looked dangerous as ho
dashed forward like a war boss , but Oury
made a lovely stop , and ho only got ten
yards to his credit. Ho soon added live
more , however , when Collins lost the porcine
cine c'uticlc on a miserable fumble.
As a starter for the Antelopes , Little Yont
gathered the snaphack to his throbbing
breast , and , by as gallant n run aa you over
saw. round the lutt end , nnd through the
panic-stricken crowd , reeled off seventy-live
yards before the Prohibitionists could shake
tbo Icicles out of their whiskers and Jump
onto him. Then Gary and t'lipula made
gains of two and seven yards respectively ;
Llttlo Yont twenty more and Flippin would
undoubtedly have secured his second touch
down had ho not slipped and foil ; us it was
ho rcu''hou Iowa's ten-yard line , and then
the ball wentto the latter on downs ,
Nebraska persistently bucking the center
ana failing to accomplish anything.
And thus ended the lirst half. Score-
Nebraska , M ; Iowa. 0.
KvoryOody IVni III This.
The Prohlbs were frisky as llcas In the
opening of the second half , and by pugna
cious work through the center , mostly by
Meyers , gained a half-hundred yards , ilero
Meyers stepped on one of his feet and exe
cuted a brilliant fumble. Wilson dropped
on the ball , and Nebraska took a turn. It
was big Flippin alone for llftccn , llvo anil
ton yards , when Yont made a twenty-yard
kick and prospects looked lattcringwhcn ! the
ball went , hack to Iowa on downs. She
accomplished nothing worth speaking of ,
however , when she In turn handed hack the
oval to the Antelopes on failure to mnko her
five-yard am ,
Oury shot through the center for a half
dozen yards , Whipplo tacking on four more
by heroic measures. Then Big Yont went
around tlio left end and ran the ball to a
foot from Iowa's goal line , The next thing
they did , however , was to lese thrco yards ,
Iowa carrying the entire rush line back
bodily on nn attempt of Nebraska to get
through the center. Amends were quickly
made the next moment by Flippin , who car
ried thu ball , along with three or four
franHo Hawkeycs on Ins back , across the
goal , line for his third touchdown. Frank ,
a second tlmo , failed to kick a goal. Score :
Nebraska , H ; Iowa , 0. Time ; Thirty

NEW YOUK , Nov. BO. The game at Man
hattan field this afternoon between the
Princeton nnd Yale foot ball elevens was as
phenomenal In the intensity and brilliance of
the struggle as it was surprising in its re
sults. The Ynlcs were defeated by a score
of 0 to 0. Many moons will shed their lustre
botora Yntn men will recover their composure
after this stupefying shock , their complete
lack of-preparation for which made this bolt
from their heretofore almost unclouded skies
seem like some wrathful visitation for which
they arcnt n loss to account.
From the very start of the game it was
palpable , oven to those totally uninterested
in tlio mysteries of the game , that the Yale
team , whoso glories have resounded so long
thioughout the country that its praises
have constituted an over reiterated echo ,
was clearly outclassed , as it was certainly
outplayed by the modest young giants who ,
with never an idle boast in their trail , went
into the battle with a look in their eyes that
meant victory.
Yule I'lnycil a Ccitnlnty.
That was the chief point of difference be
tween the two teams when the game was
called. The Yale tr.cn looked the superb
cock-surencss that they felt ; triumph was
theirs under any and all circumstances ; they
were indomitable ; they could not bo van
quished. Had they not a few short weeks
since toyed with the University of Pennsyl
vania team as mastiffs with a fox terrier ?
Had they not only a week ago in the pres
ence of the beauty of New England sig
nally displayed their superiority over the
carefully trained und splendidly organized
eleven of Harvard ? Was thcro any danger
their 'laurel wrsatlis should bo wrenched
from thnir brows by this unassuming team
from a llttlo university town in the interior
of New Jersey ? No , they looked nnd felt as
they romped around the Hold before the
game'was called. No , was hoarsely shouted
from 1UOUO wearers of the blue , who flung
their chants of anticipated victory on high
in a volume of sound that fell upon the ear
like the angry deliance of a mighty army.
Mingled with thcso all-too-provious pions
of victory were the encouraging hymns of
the men who were the orange and the black.
There was an infinitely less degree of assur
ance in their shouts , but every man who
were the colors of Princeton had a dogged
look In his countenance that was u source of
general mystification vntll their favorites
lined up on the field and began to play.
They seemed to bo experiencing a certain
inward satisfaction which they did not euro
to display until the fierce combat on the Held
was well under way. But when once they
opened up their storehouse of thunder there
was n ferocious , unquenchable conqueror's
note in their every shout that served almost
us much us tlio fortunes on the gridiron it
self to blanch the cheeks of the men whose
hearts were raging with honor and affection
for the Yale team.
Sumo -Noise Wits Mado.
The day was perfect , absolutely and un-
qualilledly nerfect. As early ns 11 o'clock
the processional tribes began to pour in.
There were young men with a mission , und
they were there to fulfill that mission. They
tramped around the enclosure in u frenzy ;
now they sang ; now they formed a ring and
with wierd incantations went through the
wild trampling movements of the Navajo
snake dance ; now they bounded in the air
and shouted as men shout in their death
agonies ; then they paraded again and sang ,
richly , resonantly , the songs that they
learned in their colleges.
The tullyhos began to arrive long before
noon. All were miraculously lillod with
musical crowds. Top , back and middle , they
were Jammed , and from the tips of the noses
of the llrst two of the six horses to the end
of the towering vehicle there was little clso
to bo seen but oraugo mid black or blue.
There was not room enough in the wide air
for the men on top of the coaches to Haunt
their flags. They had to point them directly
up to the skips and shriek in lieu ol waving
the tlags. The tallyho coaches all drew up
in line on the north side of ibo grounds.
The Yale und Princeton colors were pretty
evenly matched ,
When tlio Gludiatora Cninr.
When the plavcrs frisked out in the field
shortly after a o'clock , the preliminary
cheering seemed like the tinkling of a little
cascade compared with the booming of
Niagara. Men forgot to confine their throat
utterances to explicit utterances and trans
formed into mere ejaculatory tribesmen , the
fever in their blood driving continuity of
thought and even of enthusiasm out of their
minds and forcing them into the letting
forth of all the noises their lungs and voices
could muster. The men lined up as follows ;

Princeton won the toss , and the wind not
beingof a sufllelont momentum to effectually
aid the players , chose the ball ,

The Tigers started off with a flying wedge ,
Ward going through Yale's center lor twenty
yards. On thu next lineup Morse , the other
half back , took the ball through Yalo's
right end for thirty yards , but lost , the ball.
Huttcrwortli then kicked thlrtv yards.

through Taylor for three yards , but Morse
on two tries and Ward on one fuilcd to gain
the necessary llvo yards , and Vale took the
ball. Then it was that Vtilo , full ot confi

Hiitterworth through Princeton's right
end. So linn did they Und the line tlr.it
Huttcrwortli only made ono yard. Then
they tried the name thing with Leu und
made thrco yards , but on the next lineup
Hleliolc stopped over the Hue und Princeton
took the ball on an off-side play. Blake
punted down to Yulo's twenty-live ynrd line
and then Morse sol tl.o vast audience in a
tumult of excitement by spreading around
Yalo's right betwemi Orcenwny und Beard ,
and dodging Armstrong , making seventeen
yards.
Yale was getting desperate now , and after
a llttlo consultation decided to try Iho Hying
wedge , used by Harvard. They succeeded
In pulling Hlnkey through for llvo yards.
llmkry Siiiuslu'il Oner ,
Morse and SVnrJ gained six yards , Prince
ton lost the hall on an off-sldo play. Yale
then tried the flying wedge , but playoU a
trick by throwing the ball to Buttcrwortb la
u leadol rushing , the full buck then punting
forty yards. Hlako caught the ball and
started to bring u bauk Ho was running
head down when hu struck Hln'xey with terrible -
riblo force , throwing thu Vale captain
senseless on his back. Ho was patched up
in > the required llvo minutes , however ,
nnd play was resulted ,
CiFor Princeton , King lost two yards , trying
to go around Yulo's end and Blake was forced
to punt. Uuttcrworth caught the ball on
Yale's thirty-five yard line , und made a
magnificent dash to return it. Ho was
tackled four times , and each tlmo shoo.t off
the Princeton men unnd great applause , but
landed the ball .hlrty-llvo yards back. On
the next play ho went through Princetou'H
right unU for tea yards more ; then Priuco-
ton settled dowm nnd. on four downs Yale
failed to gala liva yariinxand lost the b\l.
Blauo then puuted and Thornu captured the
ball , but was doned before ho could start
hack. Twice Yale Jrlod the wedge but
failed. Huttcrwjjrth vas compelled to punt.
Hyapoorpimt 6T Blake on an off-side play ,
Yale gained ten .Var.ds.
Yitlc'n lllnry Gone.
I3y this tlmo Ynlo was getting desperate.
The men know they had found their match ,
If not their supdrlrtrs in the Tigers. Four
times they buefted Princeton's center in
desperate shapol'nnd four times failed to
gain ail inch , Uio ball going to Princeton.
Now It was Princeton's turn. Ward was
put through for six yards. Morse went ten
yards wore. Yalo's center was vapidly
weakening , and Uie mon on the Hue seemed
to bo unable. to ) withstand the rushes of
Princeton's backs , aided by the line inter
ference. The adherents of the tlBors were
wild with excitement , and King , the plucky
little quarterback of the Princeton's ,
added fuel to the excitement by
plunging throUgji Yulo's center for
ten vards. Morse gained three yards ,
Ward two , and 'finally , with a great rush ,
Ward plunged over Uio goal line for a touch
down. King klckdd out nnd Hlako caught it
on Yalo's fifteen-yard lino. King kicked a
coal , and the score was ; Princeton , 0 ;
Yale , 0.
For the balance of the llrst half there was
desperate playing" Princeton repeatedly
smashed through Yale's center , while Yale ,
on the contrary , failed to make any great
gains with the exception of a pretty run by
Armstrong through Princeton's left , Yale
seemed to have lost till the simp , which had
characterized her playing in games hereto
fore , and lllnkoy and Huttcrwortli seemed
the only men play Ing any thine like the came ,
which It was supposed individual players
would put up. Ofeours'o ' Hlnkcy had boon
badly hurt , and Tho'rno was also In pretty
hard shape.
Time of the first half was called at 0:30. :
Score : Princeton , pj Yale , 0.
Hunt \Vorlt for the Center" .
In the opening ofthe second half Yale
started nt uln with her old tactics of bucking
the center , but , with' the exception of the
llrst gain made by.Outterworth , the play
was unsuccessful , ijcvcn successive times
Yale tried to push cither Hutterworth ,
Thorno or Armstrong through , but each tltno
they were clowned without making any con-
sldcrablo gam. Than Princeton tried it. but
Yale seemed to beSvakineup and resisted
thn attack. Blnko 'was then forced to a
punt. After Buttorworth had tried unsuc
cessfully to go through Prhicoton's center.
Ilulliet broke through Yule's loft and
took the ball right out of Butter
worth's hands. Vurd was then pushed
through for ton yards. Gray was sent
around for ten inotxs ; Princeton got five
moro for Yale's interference , Ward was
again shoved througH for two yards and
Morse for thrco tndro Jjeforo Yale got the
ball. Three times , Yule ; tried Princeton's
center , but with naeffc , and Huttcrwortli
was forced to punt , \King \ caught it und
tried to bring It back , fjut lost four yards.
Hluko punted for twcntyjfiTO yards , and in
the next play Buttcrvvorth returned the
punt. It was Prtncotonts'ball then and Ward
was put through the center for llvo yards.
Blake punted and. Butterworth eaughHt ,
but/A'as downed at once by .Brown , putter-
worth punted for twonUv-llva yards and then
fumbled , but for Yalo's interference Prince
ton got tlio lull. ,
Very Clover Moves.
King made ono of'tha cleverest maneuvers
of th > ) Jay. Bulliot hud put the ball in play
n few seconds before the' half backs were
ready. King , taking thc'ball , found nobody
to receive it , and , hUgstnfr it close to him ,
started around Yale's-4oftpend , , Her suc
ceeded in molting . .tweutiMivo yards , escap
ing the tackles until , jheL reached Butter-
worth , who downed Irlm.'iAVith u Hying .in
terference Princeton cayried the bull up to
Yale's live-yard line. ' .THoy lost 'tlfn ball to
Ynlo and Buttcrrfprth } punted. The ball
went fully fqrty ards. one of the longest
punts of the dfty. I'rlnc jto.i secured it and
with a solid wcdRc in ono play , forced it
bank Jlf teen yards. King , " Morse und Wanl
then made a very clover play. King passed
the ball to Wanl , who criss-crossed it to
Morse. The Yale players hud started foi
the right und Morse in ] the meantime was
coming like a cyclone. There was hardlj
anybody in his way , and with the aid ol
King's fine interference ho succeeded in
making thirty-live yards.
At this Juncture Theme was forced to
retire and Hart took his plaee. Yale secmei
to bo thoroughly surpriseo at the play of
their opponents and weakened considerably

00,000,000 lire. It Is stated , that , allowing
for all losses' , the bank has a surplus. , of

80,030,000'll'ro untouched. The Credito Mo-
nllicre'has branches ii | many parts of.ltaly ,

share's. The shares yesterday dropped to
85 , anilrf-bo shurcK of the Banca Nnzionalo
dropped in sympathy to OB.'J.
There was also a sharp decline in the
shares of the Hank of Italy on heavy selling
by Florence brokers.
The general position is critical ,
U isregarded as cartain that the Credito
Mobllle.ro will obtain the moratorium which
It requested , owing to ttie withdrawal of
the 5,000,000 ( { or 60,000,000 lire front the end
of September to yesterday. The bulk of
this was withdrawn during the last few
weoks. The balance sheet is expected to
show , even if the liquidation is mtido with
out delay , that depositors will bo paid in
full with interest , and if the bunk is corn-
) clled to realize on its capital invested in
and at the present price shareholders will
receive tivo-tbirds of their money.
In consequence of the Credito Mohlliero

conference between Senator Spider , M. Cas-
Imir Verier and President Carnet that M.
'Jaslmir Pcrier consented to continue the ne
gotiations commenced by Senator Spider to

in Texas ami consisted originally of twenty-
eight renegades , thrco of whom desertoil
betoro the attack was made. As most of
the force of boundary guards was out rid In. ?
the range on the ! " customary lookout for
smugglers the two or three guards at iho
barracks were easily overpowered. After
sacking the place , taking a number of arms
ami horses , but no money , the bandits made
away to the hills , closely pursued. A few
days later iho outlaws , whoso numbers by
desertions had dwindled to thirteen , at
tacked the lawn ol C.isa lirandu in northern
Chihuahua nnd lost , two of their number ,
leaving but eleven Insurgents In tlio field.
By reason of the excited rumors Hying

soldiers in pursuit of the renegades. The
twelve deserting from the original outtlt
escaped into Texas , whore several of them
have been captured , and their extradition

Ei , PASO , Nov. UJ. Victor L. Genoa was ,
arrested by Deputy United States Marshal
Scurboro at 1:45 : this afternoon on complaint ,
of representatives ot the Mexican govern
ment. Oehoa Is an American citizen and has
illlnd some ofilccs of trust in this country.
For some time he has been editor of the
ilispanoa , Americano , u weekly puper. Since
the beginning of the troubles tit Palomas
and Ascension he has boon accused of being
tlio instrument of tJant'a Ana Perez and the
revolutionists iu stirring up the Mexicans
on this side of the Uio Gramie.
When O-aoi : was arrested ho had on his
person a copy of the original and a transla
tion of the pronnncliiniento issued by Santa
Ana Perez sovur.il days ago , nssldos sev-
crul other papers considered inflammatory
in their nuturo. He told the olllcor that ho
had the lirst pnpsr mentioned simply for the

which is known to bo a fact. lie has not
yet. submitted to tin interview further than
to say : "lam an American citizen and feel
very much disgusted at these proceedings.

From the expression let fall by ono of the
ofllcers of the United States court it is bo-
liovcil that other arrests will follow in quick
succession. As a mutter of fact , the consul
thinlts that he has the names of the men
who have organized a provisional govern
ment and that ho will get at least three of
them within a few days. Two of them , it is
said , are well known Mexicans , who live ou
this side of the river , and others will arrive
hero from .Mexico when the whole nest Is to
bo arrested. It is understood that the con
sul Is to bo absent for a few days , and if this
is true it doubtless moans that ho is going to
the City of Mexico to glvo a personal ac
count of affairs on the border. This town is
considerably excited over the nrrest today
