ANOTHER RAILWAY WAR FORE
kHADOWED.

The New York Tribune has the follow
ing on tho reports that are beginning to
circulate on the impending railway war.
In this onnect,on it may be remarked
that the generally understood fact that
none of the trunk lines are in scondition
to stand prolonged railway war is one
OF the strongest reasons for believing
that their managers will not allow
its outbreak or that if hostilities do break
forth that it will not be prolonged con-
test. The Tribune says:
Following the report published in the
Tribsne OF q greater discrimination on
Weslboupd freight being allowed by the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad than is IN

Mexican Cattle Raids.

Instructions have been sent TO our min.
lister at the City OF Mexico, who will
give particular attention to the subject OF
raids into Texas for cattle stealing, with
view to their prevention: The former
administration WAS powerless to prevent
such raids. The present is in no better
condition and, therefore 1t becomes ques.
ton of how far our government shall go
for the protection OF our citizens on the
border, and for the punishment of offend
ers. Four years ago, when Gen. Mcken-
sic porsUed marauders into Mexico, the
Mexican Minister here strongly protest.
ed against the invasion OF Mexican soil,
but our government gave no apology or
excuse for that officers conduct. The
feeling of the Administration is that our
citizens must be protected from these
raids, if not by the Mexican government
by our own, aud therefore the conduct OF
Gen. McKensie may become precedent
for action in future.
