Diplomatic Poker.
CHICAGO, June 10.
The Times Washington special says:
The project of anneXing the rich
provinces of Northern Mexico was
not killed by the failure OF the Next
can senatorial excursion, but is being
carefully nourished by the original
projectors of the plan to gather in those
provinces so full OF rich natural re-
sources. The plan is developing
through the labors of the Mexican
Claims Commissioner, whose work has
now drawn near to a close. The Claims
Cornmissioner,has been playing a sort of
diplomatic game of poker between the

One would heap up a set of outrages
and a corresponding amount of dam

gained over the rival; then, the sec

the game has been going on. The
commission is limited in It's labors to

the bitterness in the attack OF Tilton
and stating that he had not used the
phrase attributed to him yesterday,

heard him say "Down, down."
and naturally thought he desired to
consign Tilton to hell, and that he
thought so still. Beach then turned to
address the jury. He said an effort
had been made to represent that the
words imputed to Beecher by the plain
tiff, and his willingness, were such as
were foreign to his style, aud couldn't
have been employed by one so skilled
in the use of language. The word
"paroxysmal" was a good one, and
