The Mexican Commission.


A Terrible State of Affairs Revealed.
BROWNSVILLE, Texas, August 2.-THerald
special. 1.-The United States commission are
in session to-day. There is much excitement on
the Mexican side of the river, and there are ru-
mors of desire to present rebutting testimony.
MatamoraS papers ask all persons of Mexican
extraction to refrain from giving testimony to
the commission. There have been some inter
estng developments before the commission as
to Mexicans in Texas. The supposed agricul-
turists are actually assisting the cattle thieves.
Efforts of Texan owners to recover before Mex
lean civil authorities are useless Cattle stealing
has been growing since the rebellion. The cattle
thieves seize and detain passers-by till the raids
succeed.
Foreign merchandise in bond in this place for
Mexico prior to the list of July, Is allowed to
go to the interior of Mexico under old tariff
rates. The custom house will take drafts on
interior cities in part payment of duties. The
government seems very accommodating and
willing to please, and will make concessions
whenever juStiiable. Government officials in
Matalnoras are inclined to make most Of their
precarious position.
BROWNSVILLE, Texas, August 3-IHerald
special. Lieut.. Burke of the state mounted
police, and others, were before the United States
commission ts-day. Their evidence shows an
appalling record of murders. Numbers of army
officers and soldiers and couriers have
been killed for plumber. State officials
and customs officers have been killei
and their bodies mangled with Indianic
malice. Men have been killed within the limits
of Brownsville, and officers beseiged at the
mouth of the Rio Grande and murdered by
parties crossing in full daylight. Nothing is
safe from the spoilers and thieves, who are
armed with Spencer and Winchester rifles
Officials have been shot at daily, and droves of
three and four hundred cattle have been driven
over the river within eight or ten miles of
Brownsville. Taunts have been thrown back
across the river that the thieves would take as
many cattle as they want. Bagdad, Mexican
town at the south of the river, has been fed on
stolen beef, and the hide inspectors bulled out
of Matamoras. COrtina hung one or two
of his personal enemies, state officials,
claiming that cattle in Camargo were
refused them. The cattle were re-branded
and inspectors forced to register the newest
brands. Cortina's influence is all powerful to-
day with the Mexican population in Texas.
war of races is looked on as inevitable. The
most open insult and disgrace is sheaped upon
private parties The general feeling among the
people is that they must, if need be, protect
themselves, Residents on lonely ranches are
afraid TO testify in any open court.
