Alarming Revolutionary Outbreaks in Some
of the Mexican States-StOrmy Times
Looked For.
NUEvA LARADo, MEN, November Is.
Alarming rumors fill the air regarding
serious revolutionary outbreaks through
out the States of Nueva Leon and
Coahuiti. Reliable information is al
most impossible to be had. The people
are fleeing from the cities into the noun.
tains, and the militia of this city have
been under arms for two days past await
ing momentary trouble. The presump-
ton is that the present outbreaks are the
outgrOWth OF
THE BLOODY RIOTS
in various cities on election day a week
ago last Sunday. The town of Sabine
Hidalgo since that date has been under
martial law. The Government troops
have obtained possession of Saberas, and
the revolutioniStS are encamped in the
hills near by. The revolutioniSts are re-
ported as greatly outnumbering the regu-
lars. The people sympathize with the
revolutionists. General Treyino, mill
tary commander of the State, has arrived
at Lampazos with company of regular
troops from Monterey. Lampazos is on
the Mexican National Railway, about 100
miles south of Nueva Laredo and some
fourteen miles from Monterey. These
revolutionary outbreaks are significant,
when it is remembered that General DiaZ
will be inaugurated President in two
weeks. Old MeXicans here foresee
stormy times ahead.

DIsposING OF THE SURPLUS MILK.-The
first regular quarterly meeting of the Wash
ington Dairymen's Association, with which
most of the milk producers of this vicinity
are connected, was held in Washington
Yesterday. The question of how to dispose
of the surplus milk produced by the dairy
farmers, was discussed at length, and vari-
Gus plans for relief were proposed. Capt.
Van Slyck proposed the institution of cream.
cries in each dairy farming neighborhood,
while Mr.. Ramsey and Mr.. Garfield pro.
posed central creamery for all mem
bers of the association. The discussion de-
veloped the fact that the demand for milk
continued about nine months, and that
during July, August, and September, the
demand fell off fully one half. One mem
Der thought the falling off in summer was
due to watermelons. As he suggested that
after eating half a melon, person didn't
want milk. The plan OF local creameries
was finally adopted, and committee con.
sisting of Messrs. J. H. Gibbs, of Mount
Vernon, Va; H. F. Rrauninger, Washing.

dale, Md, was appointed to confer with the
farmers and see what stock would be taken
in the creameries. The next regular meet
ing will be held the second Monday in
October.

CHARGED WITH ATTEMPT TO hlLL.-1 MS
morning VIM Coles, colored, who has charge
of piece of land belonging to Mr. keyeS,
on the southwestern envlrons OF the cry,
appeared ut The Mayors office and swore
out warrant against Mr.. Richard AKIN
son, whom he alleged made murderous
assault upon him. From Coles statement
it seems that Mr.. Reyes had procured a
wagon from Mr.. Atkinson ana placed IL
upon the farm and that Mr.. A. came 10 tue
place this morning accompanied by two
male members of the Gypsy band encamped
near the city and demanded that Coles turn
the wapon over to them. This the overseer
declined to do in the absence Of the proprie-
tor, whereupon, it was alleged. Mr.. A. un-
dertook to force the barn door i'll which the
vehicle was locked, when Coles retreated
short distance and subsequently, returned
with gun. Upon seeing the bellicose
Gamers of Coles, MIR. A. remarked that there
was no use for guns, to which Coles answer
ed mo, | suppose not" and placed the
niece against the barn. Atkinson, Coles
saws, upon perceiving the latter dsarmed,
rushed upon him with formidable clasp
knife and made murderous plunge at him,
in parrying which one of Coles hands was
severely cut The complainant says in the
scutfle which enSued he fell to the ground,
when his assalant would have flushed him
had not the two Gypsies who accompanied
Atkinson interferred. Mr.. A. WAS arrested
soon afterward and the case set for Que
o'clock but the defendant failing to have
his witnesses present, the Mayor refusing TO
hear an er pGrte statement only, postponed
a hearing until o'clock, at which time all
the parties in the case appeared, aud the
Mayor, upo. hearing Mr.. Atkinsons version
of the affair, dismissed the case upon the
latter paving the costs.

RoBBERY AT MrrCHELLS S'rATIoN.-Pas-
senoers who arrived here last night from
CulDeper give accounts Of very daring
robbery committed at Mitchell's station, OH
Saturday night last, the particulars OF which
are given in the following letter from that
place to the Richmond Dispatch OF this
morning: -,
"a robbery was committed at Mltchell,s
station on Saturday night. which for cool
ness and daring would rival some OF the
robberies in large cities. Young Frank
Somerville, of the firm of J. w. Somerville
& Co., merchants, Mitchell's station, on re-
turning to his store that night about IL
O'Clock. was met by three masked men,
who, with drawn pistols, commanded him
to throw up his hands. He was then sc.
curely tied and gagged aud told to keep
himself comfortable. His captors deliber
ately overlooked the stock of goods and
helped themselves They ordered him to
open the iron safe, which he positively re-
fused to do, whereupon they broke hole
in it and blew it open, and took therefrom
$500 to 81 900, overlooking one package OF
money containing about $500. They car.
ried away lot Of canned fruits, &C., and
such other articles as pleased their fancy,
leaving Mr. Somervile bound and gagged.
He was found in that condition yesterday
morning between 4 and 5 o'clock. There
is no clue as yet to the perpetrators of the
robbery"
The package of money left belonged 10
the Presbyterian Church of that place, but
package belonging to another church was
taken.

The sandersvilIe Amir.

The report Of a threatened outbreak Of
negroes at Sandersyille does not appear
10 have had very much foundation. The
crazy talk Of the mulattO named Clark,
which gave rise 10 the report, had no ef-
feet on the better class Of negroes Of
Washington county, or, in fact, as far as
known, on the negroes Of any class. The
man Clark is said 10 be a fugitive from
Justice. and is wanted in Baldwin county.
It seems that his talk in that county was
about the same character that 1t was
in Washington county. The Washington
county people first heard Of him at
Tennille, a village about three miles
from Sandersyille. A few days after
wards be spoke at H00pie Church. The
fact that he announced that he had called
a meeting Of negroes Of the counties of
Baldwin. jefferson, Hancock, Burke and
Washington for March 81, caused a slight
feeling OF uneasiness, perhaps, and in
duced the Mayor Of Sandersville to send
TO this city for ammunition. The Mayor
thought it best TO be prepared for an emer-
gency, but had no intention Of creating
an impression abroad that there was any
immediate danger. Mr.. George W.
WILLY. Jr.. Of Sandersyille, says that
two Of the most responsible colored men Of
that town published a card last Wednes-
day denouncing the man Clark as a mis-
chief maker and as Enthusiastically. Mr..
willy also says that the best Of feeling
prevails between the white people and the
negroes Of Washington county, and that
there is now no indication Of any dis
turbance Of any kind. Men like Clark
are harmless in communities where there
is no cause for dissatisfaction, but where
there is they can stir up a great deal Of
trouble by encouraging those disafiected
to commit acts Of violence. Clark ought
not TO be tolerated in any community I'M
less he conducts himself as a law abiding
citizen
