The Dias Governments.
WASHINGTON. Feb. l0.-Minister Foster
In the House Foreign Affairs Committee
yesterday said that the hostile feeling to-
wards this country. which prevailed In
Mexico when Diaz became President, did
. great deal TO unite the various factions
md give their support solidly to the Diaz
Administration. He was Of tho opinion
that had II not been for that fact the
Diaz Government to-day would DO among
the things that were. With reference TO
the authority Of the Diaz Government In
| tho provinces near the Rio Grande from.
tier, Foster said Il was very limited, and
| Diaz seemed practically powerless To In
iuenco the provincial officials In their at.
titude towards tho United States. A o
case In point, Foster related IN instance In
| which bisz had sent General Blanco 10
Governor Canales. with orders 70 arrest
| certain Mexicsns who had broken open
the Texas Jail at Rio Grande City and
liberated o number of m~arAuders, and
