SAN ANTONIO.
Four Miles OF Cedar Fence Burned-A
Mexican Cnnard.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette
San Antonio, January S.--Night be-
fore last four miles of cedar rail fence
were thrown down and burned in
Medina county. The ranchman's
name is unobtainable, but two per-
sons now here say they saw the ashes
and embers. This is an aggressive
movement on the part of the anti
fence-cutters.
Ernest Mensebach of the Southern
Pacific railway returned to-day from
chihuahua MeXic in which city he
spent severa! days, leaving on
the 9th instant. He says
the telegram published through
the Associated Press relative to an up.
rising against Americans is without
foundation. Mr.. Mensebach met the
principal Men lean and American citi-
zens of Chihuahua and travelled many
miles along the Mexican Central rail-
way, and speaks in the highest terms
of the courteous treatment extended
and of the good will that seemed to
prevail everywhere between all classes.
The MeXicans all seemed to be dis
posed to solicit American investments,
and never was there any in,inatoD
of il-will against the Americ IN
people. The dispatch which
has been disseminated through
the Associated Press is thought to have
been concocted for political pur-
poses, as the state elections in Mexico
are near ut hand. If not, the purpose
may have been TO affect the values of
railway stocks in the interest of GER
tain persons W have invested large
ly in railway enterprises in Mexico,
vi h companies who will soon make
| official changes, though either one or
the other of such cases would hardly
prove effective with present facilities
to communicate the facts.
