ing and burning Ranches.
GALVESTON. April 19.-The Nel5S' Cor
pus Christi special says: Saturday night
a report came in that a company Of men,
disguised, had attacked Mr.. Blan's rancho,
in the neighbOrhOOd of Hapana, and burned
that and four other ranches, and are coming
on in this direction. VIM. Hall, passen-
senger in the stage from Brownsville to
Santa Gertrude's ranches, reports a band Of
35 or 40 Mexicans approaching that rancho,
rObbing and burning houses as they come.
All communication by telegraph with
Brownsville is cut of, the wires supposed
to be destroyed. Firing was heard at Bare
gas last night, eight miles beyond Santa
Gertrudes. A courier reached this city
last night calling for help. The alarm bells
were Tung. Captains BeynOn, Clark and
Culver have started to meet the raiders.
Have also sent word to Banquette and
Nures. The country is aroused. This
band will probably turn back when they
find their movements are known. Many
rancherOs are moving in town with their
families for protection.

An Encouraging Financial Quito ok.
INV YORK, April 19.-The Times in its
financial review says of the outlook:
"The bonds called in connection with
the syndicate, may not result IN an out
flow of much gold, as the syndicate will
pFHbably turn in large amounts of called
bonds and coupons, but the May and July
interest, and the S3O,O0O,OOO bonds for the
sinking flnd. viii be paid in gold. If there
is no export Of coin during these payments,
the bulk o. gold to be paid ont by Ihe
Treasury will find its way into b, nk vaults.
Thus with the legal tenders flowing in
from the country, and gold flowing out Of
the treasury, there is every prospect for a
great increase in the strength Of the banks,
and consequently assured ease in money,
both for legitimate and speculative pur-
poses. The voice Of the crOakeTs is grow
ing fainter, and We are likely to enter the
centennial with a degree Of prosperity that
will reflect credit upon the enterprise and
speculative ability ofthe American people" 5"
Troubles Of the Northern Pacific Rail-
road.
The troubles Of the Northern Pacific

control Of all the property. The condition
Of the financial affairs Of the company has
not improved with time, and the efforts Of
those who were trying to build the road
were hampered, it is said, by the creditors.
1t is understood no material change will
take place in the system Of operating that
portion Of the road already constructed, or
in the working force now employed. No
construction will be undertaken until the
company is placed on such a basis that
money can be borrowed for the purpose.
