Sherman's Suggestions.

Washington, Nov. 22.-Gen. Sher-
man was again before the committee on
Military Affairs this morning and
furnished an epitome of reports received
by the War Department for the last
year as to the troubles on the Mexican
frontier. He also went at considerable
length into tue question of distribution
of troops, and expressed the opinion
that if the protection of Texas required
a military force of 1000 men, the pro-
lection of northern belt of country
for width of one hundred miles from
the British line, where Sioux and other
hostile Indians range, would require,
at the same ratio force of 40, 900 men.
1t also appeared from his statement
that most of the murders which he re-
ferred to yesterday as having been COM
mitted in Texas last year were by In
dians.

San Antonio, Nov. 22.-The follow
ing has just been received from Fort
Stockton: Our telegraphic communica-
tion has been cut off for the last eight
days. A party sent out to ascertain
the cause found the wires cut near
where the Indians killed a stage driver
last month. Indians have been seen on
the Pecos river with pieces of telegraph
wire.
Cooney's herder reports that the
same Indians attacked his herd on the
18th inst. and killed SIX or eight head
of cattle. He followed them ten miles
but could not overtake them.
Lieut.. Jones, with a large party from
Col. Shawter's command, passed down
the Pecos on the 10th. The Indians
have also stolen four head from near
Horsehead crossing.
Matamoras, Nov. 22.-During Tues
day night and Wednesday morning,
about fifteen prominent citizens, sup
posed to sympathize with Lerdo, were
arrested and confined in the military
prison. This action is understood to
have been instigated by the discovery of
a conspiracy in connection with ESQ
bedo who, it is alleged, is organizing A
force in Texas to cross into Mexico in
the interest of ex-President Lerdo.
Gen. Canales has officially called the
attention of the United States authori-
ties to the fact of the existence in
Texas near the Rio Grande of Il camp
of armed Mexicans, who are evidently
prepared to cross, and asking that the
United States Government cause the
neutrality laws to be enforced against
those who are undoubtedly using the
territory of the United States to or
ganize a revolutionary movement in
Mexico.
Chicago, Nov. pa dispatch was
received this afternoon at Gen. Sheri-
dams headquarters, from Gen. Ord,
who reports that, on the both inst, a
Mexican was killed on Indian creek,
eight or ten miles from Avolos, by a
party of Lipan Indians. On the 2lst
instant, two more men were killed in
rancho near Laredo. The killed
are supposed to have been residents of
Texas.

SCOTS SCHEME.
The Southern Pacific Road in Glowing
Picture.

The Southern Pacific Road in Glowing
Picture.
Chicago, Nov. pa reporter inter-
viewed Thos. \. Scott here yesterday,
with the following result, as regards
the Southern Railroad, known as
the extension Of the Texas Pacific, to
the Pacific coast: l think it is destined
to be one of the great highways of the
country, and that-th road ought to be
built speedily for the interest of all the
great business centres of the country,
which, of course, includes all Atlantic
ports in the Southern States, and all
business railway centres, reaching all
the way through to Baltimore, Phila-
delphia and New York, and will he and
should be valuable as an outlet for the
city of Chicago, becauseit will develop
new fields of wealth which Chicago
ought to be interested in and will be no
doubt, when the road is constructed.
1t is certainly to the interest of Chica-
go and all this section of the country
to have an opportunity to go into these
enterprises, and the people have no
greater field to develop than that eX-
tending from the Red river, on the
borders of Texas, all the way through
to FL Paso, and nltimatelyto the Pacific
coast.
