this emphatic announcement can hardly

Texans Surrender.
GALVESTON, Dec lS.-The News Aus.
tin special says: A dispatch received by
the governor from the sheriff of Ell Paso
county stated that the state troops had sur
rendered to the Mexican mob at 3 y. NJ
Yesterday. Their ammunition was ex.
haustcd and they were unable to hold out
longer. After the surrender Howard, At
kinson and Mcbride were shot to death by
MeXicaus.
Survivors in Danger.
CHICAGO, Dec. 1s.-The Tribune's Wash
ington special says: Sheriff Kerber tele
graphs that balance of the Texan state
troops, who were not murdered after the
surrender will doubtless meet that fate
unless rescued by U. s. forces We have
information of large bodies of Mexican
citizens participating in this massacre. II
is not probable that the administration
can take any additional steps for the pres
crvation of peace. The troops already
ordered are moving with all possible ex
petition.
