Driven by the fear of Congress to rccog-

it In the meancst OF WAYS, and so tnrdllv us to
save neither gratitude nor respect for the
United States from the sister republic.
The reasons now put out for recognizing
President DGAz were all rs potent many months
since. The DIM Government shows nm ami

Tho DIM Administration has paid To the HAYES
Administration an nstallmcnt Of the Mexican

Mexican situation for months; there exists Nc
reason for recognizing President DIAz which

LONDON, Dec. SO.-A despatch to the

caught in trap. The roads on this side OF Ca
bul are usually paasable earlier In the sprlnR
than those on the other side OF the Afghan cap
ital. and thus our army might have been
able in tho event OF the Ameer staying In
Cabul till spring. TO advance on him before
he could retire From this point OF view
his flight may bo only a. retreat to a
safer quarter whence to prolonR resistance
without the same risk OF capture In case OF
defeat. He has fourteen. or. according 20 an
and II he can retain his hold over them. and
thus maintain his supremacy In Afghanistan-
Turkestan. he may still offer formidable op-
position to Yakoob Khan or whatever ruler we
set up In southern AfRhanistan. He released
1akOob Khan only under pressure from the
Ghilzni chiefs. who would not allow him to leave
Cabul without appointing his successor. II

ably guarantee him against his father"
