Brownsville, April 3. At ) o'clock this morn
ing General Porfiro Diaz presented himself with
about 600 men to attack Matamoras. Genera
Lebarra. in command of the garrison, sent Out
800 men under Toledo to attack the enemy. Thi:
force pronounced when out of the city and
came back in the ranks Of Diaz
The National Guard, 900 strong, and the ar
tillery in the city, refused to fire a single shot
when ordered by Lebarra, and the revolutionlsts
kept advancing. On this all the government
troops turned over except the 9th cavalry, which
held firm.
After some fighting, Gen. Lebarra, seeing he
was betrayed on the battlefield left the city with
squad OF 9th cavalry, for Brownsville.
At Sentinel station, on the river opposite here
the guard fred at the party, thinking they were
enemies. The General crossed over and is now
here.

with great rejoicing.
Fighting is going on at Forts San Fernando

been pouring into this city for week past, in an
tcipation of a battle, and the greatest excitement
prevails on both sides of the river.
The officers and troops who crossed to TeNa
have been arrested and disarmed by Gen. Potter

CONNECIICUI
ELECTION.

Hartford, April 3. The election is proceeding
quietly. The polls do not close till } O'Clock and
il is impossible to give ANYTHING definite about the
result. The rainstorln and raw, disagreeable ar
will effect the vote some in the State. Four State
tickets are in The field and the chances are against
an election of Governor by the people. The leg
islature will probably be very close. The green
back men are polling a considerable vote here.
There are three candidates for mayor here, indie
pendent, republican and democratic, with the
chances in favor of the democrat. There will be
q pretty full vote in this city.
Hartford city gives Robinson $3.50, lngersoll

So far as heard from, the republicans gained IL
representatives and the democrats Ii.
II towns give Robinson II ,342, Ingersoll 49,
$40, Smith $40, Atwater APO. Same towns last
1918, scattering 6. Republican gain, Hoo. Gov.
Ingersoll is no doubt reelected by the popular
vote, and the legislature is democratic. The
democrats re-elcct the mayor in Hartford and
elect two representatives to the legislature.
