TOMBSTONE, \. r., July 29.--Parties
Just arrived from Sonora state that u
company of Mexican citizens, led by the
project of the town of Arizpi, discovered
a squaw camp in the Panata mountains
the latter part of last week. The camp
was attacked and number of squaws
and few old bucks were killed. Many
of the former escaped by taking refuge in
the mountains. They were undoubtedly
the families of the rcnegadcs trying to
regain their reservation, and were proba-
bly, left behind with the intention of being
taken In by the United States troops, in
which case they would have been re-
turned to the reservation.

Policy.
PARIS, July 29.--The Madagascar debate
continued in the chamber of deputies last
night. EXPremicr Ferry spoke in defense
of his colonial policy. His speech aroused
great uproar and met with violent In
terruptions. In the excitement many
members were called To order. NJ Ferry
said that France went TO Tonquin and
Madagascar because her honor and the
fultillment of her treaties called her. He
doubted whether the negotiations with
the 1lovas would lead To a favorable issue.
II was impossible to abandon the Sakala-
vas to the vengcncc of the llovas. Such
an act would compromise the interests of
civilization in the far east. frances coll
onial policy was justified because 1t was
the right and the duty of the superior
races to civilizc the inferior races. Since
all nations are now entering upon colonial
movements, France must do likewise or
forfeit her position.

An English Loan to Mexico---TriaI of the
Revolutionary students.
CITY OF MEXICO, July 29.-La Sienna,
the financial organ of the national banks,
in this weeks issue gives currency to the
report of heavy English loan to Mexico
having been negotiated. The sum men
toned is one hundred million dollars, in
installmcnts. The tlrst installmcnt is to
be from fifteen to twenty millions. The
same paper reports that the British agent
has put forward nm idea to purchase the
American railways by English companies.
1t is said the decree for the recognition
of the debt forms part of the basis for the
projected loan. All this is in line with
the proposed Anglo Mexican trade alli-
ancc, which is being advocated here
by the English manufacturers, who view
with anxiety the diversion of the trade of
the country to the United States, and are
dcvising means TO bind Mexico in close
commercial alliance with England, rs has
been done in the case of Chilli.
The trial of the students, who are
confined in the Bcllim pcnitcntiary on the
charge of melting an outbreak against
the government, is proceeding rapidly.
Several students have been discharged
from custody. large police force is in
