Probability of an Early War Between
Uncle Sam and the Greasers if
Sam Has Sufficient Spunk.

New York, Oct. Letters from the
City of Mexico say the opinion is be-
coming very general that trouble be-
tween Mexico and the United States
is soon probable, and consequently
some military officers are uniforming
the calibre of their arms. Agents of
two New York houses are there solicit
ing orders for American textile fabrics,
and other manufactures, in successful
competition with the German houses
which heretofore nearly monopolized
that trade. The recently pending ne
gotiation for the recognition of the
Diaz government by the United States
is said to have been suspended because
the American minister, Foster, de-
manded as the basis of the arrangement
permission by treaty for American
troops to cross the Rio Grande to pur-
sue marauders, and the exemption of
American residents in Mexico from
forced loans.

Decision of an Important Suit.
San Francisco, October IA Port
land press dispatch says the case of Ben.
Holiday 6 Co. VS.. S. G. Elliott, pend
ing since November, 1869, brought for
the dissolution of the co-partnership
between the parties for the construction
of railroads in Oregon, has been decided
in favor of the plaintiffs, by Judge Baise
of the third judicial district. The court
decreed dissolution of the co-partner-
ship, adjusted the partnership accounts
and gavethe plaintiffs judgment for the
balance found to be due against the de-
PENDANTS. The attorneys for the plain
tiffs claim that this decision virtually
determines all the suits brought by
Elliot against Holiday, the railroad
case and others growing out of Elliott's
transactions with Holiday.

The Russians outgeneraled.

London, Oct. IA correspondent
with Gen. Krilloff, who commands the
force which is endeavoring to prevent
the revictualment of Plevna, says the
first Turkish convoy which entered
Plevna consisted of two thousand Wa
gons. Gen. Krilloff attempted to hold
the road at point so near Plevna that
Osman Pasha was able to send a force
which attacked him in the rear and OBJ
liged him to withdraw and leave the
road open. Upon retiring Gen. Kril-
loft left two regiments of Cossacks at
Etropol to watch the Sofia road. An
other convoy coming from road un-
known to the Russians running along
side the Sofia road, slipped through the
fingers of the detachment on Monday
and was under the guns of Plevna be-
fore the Russians could attack it.

reached in the Ohio campaign. Judge
West has been formally charged with
breaking will which his own wife's
former husband had left, for the pur-
pose of cheating an edu cational in

solemnly denied in det all and with
yoluminous proof and the original
slanderers are shown to have willfully

to be in order now to charge the Judge
with wife-beating, or with having lost
his eyesight in diabolical attempt to
blow up his own household by pouring
powder on red-hot stove.

Washington special says silver men still
intend to pass their bill in the Senate
this week. Mathews resolution is

ment it is found to be in the way of the
bill. The real reason it has not been
laid aside is the confidence of the silver
men that they can pass both the reso-
luton and bill, and they do not want to
offend Mathews. who desires to secure
q vote OH his manifesto. Moreover, il
is part Of the purpose to make n great
dash oil at once against the bloated
bondholders, the hope being cherished
perhaps by some that there may be
an opportunity to speculate in govern
rnent securities. Opponents Of the sill
yer bill will not debate it for the sake
OF delay. There are several speeches to
be made, but the subject has been man
aged in such way that there has been
no opportunity for prepared or SGT
speeches or connected debates, Mat.

the discussion that properly belongs to
the bill, and in such a way that the
speeches have little interest or influence.
