A Desperate q etion Between tho Outlaws
and Mexican Troops.

Ell PAao, Texas, August 5.-A big
seizure Of smuggled goods was made on
Monday by the Mexican fiscal eendarln-
erie, south east Of IA Paao, opposite the
Texas pueblo Of San Elizari, some thirty
miles down the river. The conrabandista
were in force, and, as usual, heavily
armed. The customs guards attacked
them, however, as soon as they caught up
with them, and q regular battle Eensued.
One ofthe fiscal guards, and two, of the
smugglers were wounded, !, and one Of the
smugglers were killed The rest Of the
gang, six or eight in number, were cap
tared. They are now in irons and closely
guarded. 3 ~.
The merchandise seized was carried to
the Paso del Norte Custom. House. and "a,
Of course, confiscated for the benefit toi the
Republic. Il consisted OF goods valued at
Sl4 900, and from the marks and stamps
on the packages had evidently come from
the well knownwholes importing house
OF Ketelson 4 Degatlan. Although SNUG
Cling always occurs here, this seizure oc-
casions some excitement on account of the
standing Of the parties implicated. The
leading merchants OF sEl Paso say that by.
making the duties alittle more reasonable,
the practice Of smuggling would be broken
up,,and the Mexican orernmenta actually
receive more ereyenne than now. x;

ofsugar manufacturers who recently called
