THE BILLIARD TILE.
siosson Defeats Dion by GOO to ADs.

At the st. Charles Rotunda last evening the
crowd to witness the game between Slo@son
and Dion filled the circle there erected for viSi-
tors to it% fullest extent, and there were none
sorry that they were present. At the opening
Of the game Dion made mastery run of 40,
which was followed by Slosson with 145. 1t
was nobody's game up to the twcnty-ilfth
inning, when Slosson drew ahead.
The play for the most part was very fine
and showed more billiards than is usual now
in matches, when nursing is the surest steI
toward success.
The most brilliant shot 50 far OF the tourna-
ment was made by Dion. SlOsson, az a safety
shot, played his ball against the cushion OPP
posite Siosson's while the red was against the
same rail ut the other end OF the table. Dion
appreciated the difficulty Of the situation
With rare daring he struck Slossons, and
with that curve so well known to billiard
plavers his ball ran off from the cushion, AND
returning ran into the corner, hitting the red
and counting
Slosson, however, was too much for his
opponent and ran out in the thirty-ninth
inning to Dion's 49s. The winners average
was Is 15-39, Dion's IL 36-3s. Time OF game,

what an OH Ranger ThInks About the
situation ef Affairs.

Col John S Ford. Of Texas, whose rcpria-
tion IA n ranger has extended beyond the linn
ita of HIS State, waa In our city yesterday On
bs way to Washington City, to testify there
regarding the deprcdations committed by The
McxitanH on the border.
On tho lower Rio Grandc, IN Col Ford'a
opinion, cattle stealing Ia still carried on with
little II any, abatement. but II IL not prose-
cuted by IA large parties M formerly. In that
particular section Of country these raids are
made by very Hmall parties. go that too much
attention will not be attracted To thrm.
Regarding the recent concentration Of
United States troops IN that locality he stated
that IL was done TO give protection to that
very extended aren Of country between tho
San Antonio and Rio Grande. rivers, which
very short time be almost completely devas-
tated by the incursionR Of the Mexicans In
case of any difficulty with tho administration
IN The City of Mexico. Col. Ford said that the
Texans do not so much complain Of tho
thievery Of these raiders as they do OF the
fact that they these pafties) are regularly or.
ganized within Mexican boundaries, and
sometimes largely composed of the regular
troops Of that country. Since the close OF our
own troubles theae raids have been kept up
ernmcnt has suffered in millions Of money
and many valuable lives and herds of cattle.
The latter have been carried to Mexico and
sold in her public markets. The officers OF
tho Mexican army and the civil authorities
have participated In the profits proceeding
from the raidings. In numbers OF instances
Mexican t,istomhouse guards have seized cat
tle stolen from Texas. condemned and sold
them. and paid the proceeds into the treasury
Of Mexico, Notwithstanding they knew they
had been fconiously acquired. and they re-
fused to deliver them when demanded by the
proper owner,, or their agents, on the pteteSt
chat the animals had been introduced into
Mexico contrary TO the revenue laws thereof
Such INSTANCES occurred In Reyno3tl, Camargo,
and other pointa.
Referring to the present condition Of affairs
on the border. tho Colonel says that the peo-
pie there have made complaints IN every pos-
sbe way. State officials, Federal officials and
grand iuries have been applied to for mid, but
without avail. There are now pigeon holed In
Washington more than one thousand aflida-
Wits setting forth the extent OF the depreia-
tions: the completely Of the Mexican authori-
ties In the raids on every occasion In continue
tion with the Indians the commission Of say
age atrocities the murder Of citizens regard
lt~s of sex, the outraging of women, the cap
turc of children and the selling of them as
slaves, were conclusiycly proved while the
United States commissioners were IN session
at San Antonio.
Col. Ford states that there is no desire for
war In Texas, but what the people want IL a
sure guarantee Of protection. They are salts
fled with the present boundary Of the Rio
Grande, but they want to see IL preserved.
