Attorney General Gushing kreprted to have

the other day. IN which he appears to have
sspoussd ths cause Of Young America TO an
sxtsnt that viii b. likely 70 create considerable
sensation, not only In the ranks Of the Old
Fogics but among diplomatic circles. Mr.. G.
declared that in the adjustment Of Our Difficult.

corporated California and New Mexico, but
should have taken in Chihuahua aud Sonora.
However, upon the next OCCASION, he asserted,
there was no doubt but that our boundary
would bc located 70 ar to the south that L
would remove AL apprehcns!on Of trouble with
Mexico about tho division line In future He
also intimatcd that there would Rot bc the least
objection, should the emergency arise, to re-
ceiving Cuba and the adjacent countries, into
