MEXICO. Friday, March q.
On the oath inst. the Special Committee Of the
Senate finished reading their report the same
having occupied two entire days on the Tehuan
tepec Treaty This is be printed, and it is said
to be most able document. 1t concludes with
proposition that the Senate declare the decree
Of Nov. G. 1916, granting further extension Of
time to D. Jose Garay the original CONTRACTOR
for the beginning of his ork, null and unEubstan-
tial or Of no effect"
This appears to strike at the root of the bust
ness, because if the Senate decide that extension
of time to be illegal, l suppose the privilege must
fall to the ground as Mr. Garay has never CON-
piled with any of the conditions OF his contract,
neither in the first place. after the first extern
sion was granted him That OF 9th Nov, $40,
was the second extension.
The Depuiies for the State Of Oaxaca. some
DAYS ago, proposed that the Minister for Foreign
Affairs should inform the Chamber OF Deputies
of the particulars of that treaty The Minister
replied Yesterday in substance (the note was not
publishedl that the treaty celebrated with the
United States respecting Tehuantepec, and which
would be submitted to Congress fortheir approval,
had undergone various alterations, some OF them
favorable to Mexico, others Indifferent This re-
ply did not satisfy those Deputies and they have
obtained the Chambers consent that the treaty
should be passed to them in order that they might
make such reflections as the same might glverise
