Beginning September, 1st, the
duty on ice to Mexico was re
moved, and as a consequence our
local factories are enjoying an in
creased trade from that country.?
There are a number of other art
icles also included in the free list
but the new tariff has not been re
ceived, and it is impossible to
enumerate them.
According to figures obtained
from Well's Fargo's Express of
fice here there were shipped from
this point during the past twelve
months ending August 31, 1201
barrels of fish, aggregating about
180,150 pounds. This is a very
good showing for an infant indus
"try, and the next twelve months
''will show a decided increase.
The board of review, appointed
some time ago b the commission
ers' court, on the drainage district
in this section is still pursuing its
labors. Drainage ditches 1 and 2
have been permanently located,
and work was begun on ditch No.
3, this morning. No estimate has
yet been made of the actual cost of
drainage. The board consists of
Jno. D. Hill, Dr. Bell and J. W.
Davis, with E. B. Gore, engineer.
The Herald will give a complete
report when the board has finished
the work.
Among the arrivals in this city
Saturday were Dr. A. Carrillo, of
Monterey, director of the civil col
lege of the State of Nuevo Leon.
and vice-president of the state
board of health, and his sister-in-law,
Sra. Solcdad Rocha deQuiroz.
They came to leave their daughters,
Rosa Carrillo and Guadalupe Gar
za Rocha, as pupils in the convent
school in this city. Dr. Carrillo is
very much interested in yellow fev
cr conditions. Monterey and vicin
ity, he says, are wide awake to the
possibility of infection and have
4. prepared accordingly. By hard and
persistent work they have succed
d in totally exteralatit: the
stegomyia, or yellow fever mos
quito. Brownsville and Matamoros
need not fear any transmission of
fever by way of Monterey. Our
only danger, he thinks is from
Nuevo Laredo, crossing the river
at that point and coming on the
American roads. The doctor, Sra.
Rocha de Quiroz and two younger
children, returned home this morn
ing over the Mexican National.
A MATTER OFffLW
The baseball game on the post
diamond yesterday afternoon be
tween the Brownsville second nine
and the Mexican team resulted in
an overwhelming victory for the
Mexicans by a score of about 17 to
7.,The town boys could not seem
to connect, and the Mexican team
stacked up runs until there was no
fun in it for the town team. The
Brownsville team did not keep up
the reputation of the uniforms
they wore, but went down and out,
feeling they could do better next
time. Eleven innings were played
and the score on the Mexican side
kept getting larger, while the
town boys did most of their scor
ing with the wrong end of the
pencil. One especially sensational
play was made in the right field
by one of the Mexican players. A
long fly came his way, and he
stood like a statue, with one bare
hand extended. When the ball
struck the hand it gave a resound
ing whack, but the clutch was a
death grip, and as the player
thrcv the ball home he shouted,
Hurrah for de Messican boys!"
The town boys say they are not at
all satisfied with the way things
went yesterday and will show the
Mexicans how to play ball next
Sunday.
