Mexican Railway News.
New York, September 10th.-The Worlds
City of Mexico correspondent sends the fol-
lowing The Frisbie and Huntington appli-

jected. The Tehuantepec Railway Company
seems to have bitter enemy ina correspond
ent of the Ell Centinela EspanoLa and other
Mexican journals. If we may judge from
statements to this effect it is a failure. In
stead of 400 laborers the company has now
twenty Indians at work keeping up a SEM
blance of progress. etc. The official Govern
ment organ contradicts all these assertions,
and states that there has been considerable
fever among the lahorers, consequently the
Indians belonging to the mountain regions
have returned to their homes. Yet an ade-
quate force of men remain. The rails expected
from England and the United States have not
yet arrived, but large quantity of other
material has already reached Coatzacoalcos.
Reports of Mexican Government Inspectors
also confirm progress of the railroad.
