Vast Scheme OF Internal ement
In Mexico,

New YORK, Oct. Tile Worlds special
from Mexico says: President Dlaz has signed
contracts with two American companies Tor
international lines, one to the Texas frontier
and one with branches to the Pacific, but
congressional action is needed to validate
either or both. The scheme of the system
embraces:
l. The completion of an inter-oceanic line
from the Gulf of Mexico across the central
portion of the country, from Vera Cruz via
the City of Mexico to the Pacific coast.
=. An international line opening a channel
of by rail communication between
that country and the United States.
The companies to which the concessions
have been made are the Mexican Central Il.
r. Co., a corporation organized under a char
ter from Massachusetts,, and the National
Mexican Railway Construction Company, a
corporation made up of the SulliTaiI-lalmer
party, which has hitherto been connected
with the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad.
The Mexican Central is building northward
to the city of Leon, 4G2 miles. About 10
miles, from Sedaya to Salamanca, are in OPP
Grafton, and a section extending from the
CITY of Mexico about 81 miles is expected to
be opened about Nov. 81.
On Nov. 80 Diaz retires from the presiden-
CIV, and every effort is being made to have the
section ready for "a formal Inauguration by
him before that date. The new concession
gives the Mexican Central company tue right
to extend its line from Leon to Ell Paso de
Norte. on the Rio Grande frontier OF New
Mexico, where it will meet the Atchlson, 10
peka and Santa fe.

Grants Charge In Military Circles.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Herald saws :
"Among the officers of the army, and partic.
ularly those stationed on Governors Island.
and therefore brought intimately into rela.
lions with Hancock, there is a good deal of
feeling IN regard to the alleged Fowler-Grant
interview. 'The amendments of original
publications. said one officer, makes the
matter more muddled than ever, and the next
thing in order will be for Grant to explain
his explanations Grant is bound, if posi-
ble,' remarked another, sto make Garfield the
next president. He knows then that he will
be a power behind the throne, whereas if
Hancock is elected lie will be left out in the
cold. He is not in a position TO ask favors of
Hancock. In the first place he treated him
most shabbily when he gave Mcdowell, ajunior
major general, the command of this depart.
ment and sent Hancock west, and when he did
his utmost to cripple Hancock while the lat
ter was in command at New Orleans. Sand
what did he do?" interrupted another officer,
"He resented it; he would either command
or he would not, and when he found he could
not command, but must content himself witt
being fgure-head, he resigned, and he die
what any ~high-spirited officer would have
done. There is an unwritten history that
may be written"

CHICAGO, Oct. THE Tribune,s Indian

Four hundred school children bearing fiow-
ers then fled past the party and were fol.
lowed by tiremen in uniform, who halted
and sang a patriotic song in chorus. The cit,

shaking continued till 10 o'clock. Fully 1900
people, many from the surrounding country
filled the seats. The party have gone or

The Monroe Doctrine.

President Hayes sent message to
the U. S. Senate on Monday last, in
which he shows himself to be strong
supvorter of the Monroe Doctrine.
The message is in reference to the
Isthmus Canal, and he makes Use Of
the following strong language in re-
gard to 1t. In regard to the control
of the canal, he says, "The United
States cannot consent to the surren-
der of this control to any European
mower, or combination ofany European
movers" Inasmuch as the capital
invested therein would naturally look
to us for protection Of its interests
he says, mo European power can IN
tervene tor such protection without
adopting measures on this continent
which the United States would deem
wholly inadmissible." lnasmnch as
the indefatigab'e De LesseIs is at
work, tooth and toe nail, with fair
prospect OF success in the matter of
enlisting sufficient capital to build the
canal, it will become necessary for
our government to speak promptly,
and to the point on this matter. We
presume, that inasmuch, as, the pres
idents message was in answer to re-
quest of the Senate that the President
should furnish copies Of all cores
rondence with foreign governments,
on the subject of the interocean'c ca.
nal, there will be some definite action
taken at once.
