THE CAIRO AND ST. LorIs r. Il.

Regular trains are not yet being run
over the entire length OF this road, the
track between Murphysboro and Cairo
being in an unsafe condition. The rails
were laid during the winter, when the
ground was frozen, and the melting
weather and rain we have lately exper-
fenced, has left the track in an ''up and
down condition. Three construction
trains are at work, and it is probable that
regular trains will be put on by the mid
die of April. Some freight is coming
into Cairo over the road, but not much.
Mr.. Lonergan yesterday received the first
car load of flour into Cairo over this road
from Red Bud.

CAMERoN's PROJECT.

CAMERoN's PROJECT.
WASHINGTON. March 3l.--The stories
Of the Texan border outrages nre said,
here. to be part of the play inauguratcd
by the senatorial excursion. 1t is sup
posed TO be part Of the programme that
advocates the annexation of the northern
provinces of Mexico. A little trouble
win Mexico, If nurscd up Into the shape
oi an insignificant war, would help the
party. i Ia thought, and make good capt.
tai for the future campaign.
THIS MEXICAN BUSINESS
Is the general talk of political circles.
The high positions ofthe men who have
gone 10 Mexico. and the fact of their Wis
ting Mexico In an official vessel. give the
visit an unusual importance. Every
morning brings, with systematic rrccis-
ion, the story of fresh outragps on the
Mexican border. Good. enterprising
agents there can keep these stories go
ing, until the government will be driven,
reluctantly, into doing something. Then,
under the preteXt of war, 1t will not be
so difficult to obtain the desired concess-
ions in northern Mexico.
POLITICAL STRATEGY.
Vice President Wilson says the rrpub-
lican party has no chance of success in
policy, aud his opinion, doubtless, Is
shared by those In power. They, of
course. differ with him n, to what should
be this change of policy. A foreign war
would unite the supporters OF the admin
istration. and there are plenty here,
among those whose official position
gives them especial means Conformation.
who say that the president Is unscrupu-
lous enough to use any means To keep
himself and his associates in power.
THE COST OF CAMERoN's TRIP.
A naval officer, to-day, gave the Times
correspondent the items of expense con-
nccted with the use OF the government
vessel, the Dispatch. He saws that, in
GLIDING the fitting out of the vessel. her
supplies. wear aud tear of machinery,
and the risk of the vessels loss. taken in
connection with the time she will be on
this special duty, nearly two months. she
will foot up bill of expenses amounting
To al least $4,000. A democratic house
Representatives might make some OBJ
lection to the auditing of this bill.
SUGGESTION OF PEsTuENcE.
The Dispatch touched ut Key West
since the breaking out of the yellow fe-
yer. II is thought that, should yellow
Jack break out on the vessel when she
has left New Orleans with her freight Of
distinguished American citizens, 1t would
prove as ellectual in thinning down the
party rs did the reauy publication of the
purposes of her trip in the Times,
RoBEsoN's YACHT CLUB.
They have new name here now for the
