Mexican Affairs.
THE FRIENDS OF LERDo MAKING TROUBLE FOR
pIhZ, &C.

pIAZ, &C. 2
WASHINGTON, May AT the Cabinet
council to-day there was serious attention
given TO the recent reports relating to the
agitations on the Mexican border. There
is abundant evidence OF the fact that o
strong movement is inaugurated by the
friends OF Lerdo on the American side OF
the Rio Grande, to cross over for the pur-
pose OF creating trouble for the DiaZ gov
eminent.
The Secretary OF War. after the Cabinet
adjourned, issued an order to General Ord
enioining it upon that officer to be particu-
larly vigilant in the epdeayor to prevent
any invasion OF Mexican territory with hos
tile intent from the American side OF the
Rio Grande.
The opinion in Administration circles
here is that there will be serious trouble IN
Mexico, and particularly along the border.
The followers OF Lerdo are without doubt
instigating Indian raids into American ter
ritory for the purpose Of having the United
States troops pursue them across the river,
and thus produce additional complications
with the Mexican Government. This fact
| was mentioned ut the Cabinet meeting.
Escobedo is in Texas, and the opinion that
he should be arrested for violating neutral
| ity laws was expressed by some OF the MEN,
bers OF the Cabinet.
The foregoing information has been re-
ceived by our Government through a num-
Der OF official channels. Directions will be
Immediately issued for the prevention Of
violations Of the neutrality laws. g.
A formal letter from Minister Foster to
| the Secretary OF State, enclosing copies Of
the correspondence between himself and
| the Diaz Government on the occasion OF
Mr.. Fosters resumption Of his duties as
American minister to the Mexican Govern
ment, was read at the Cabinet meeting.

A CALL TO DR.. De kovEN.-Neao York;,
May 2.-The World states that at the last
meeting OF the vestry Of Trinity church,
held the day after Easter, successor to the
late Rev. DIR. Oglby, as assistant minister,
was elected. The choice fell upon the Rev.
DR.. De Koven. the distinguished pulpit ora
tor and head Of the University at Racine,
Wis. The election was unanimous, and al
though not all the vestrymen were present,
there is no doubt that the result would have
been the same il every officer OF the church
had attended the meeting and had voted on
the question. Although DR.. De koven'S
name had often been mentioned in this con-
nection, no one had ever consulted his
wishes, and the notice of his election sent
to him last week must, therefore, have been
perfect surprise to him. The vestry is
now anxiously awaiting DR.. De Kovcn's re-
