MEXIC0'S REVOLUTIONS.
BANDITS BELIEVED TO BE AT
THEIR BOTTOM.

The Movements in TAumsulipas and
NuevO Leon Stripped OF Political Sig
nihcance-An Uprising at Aqua Sagus
Giving the Government Considefablo
Uneasinsss, However.
ST. LOUIS, July GA Matamoras eor-
respondent telegraphs as follows concerns
ing affairs In Tamaulipas: "The Federal
troops are now in strong force UP the
country and have captured four more
prisoners. 1t is thought that the majority
of the revolutlonsts nave found the from,
tier too hot for them and have broken
through the troops and retreated to thu
mountains in the Interior. The move was
not we'll planed and the up river ranches
rOs, even those adverse to Cutare,
became convinced that it had nq
political importance and was only
being used by lot OF border bandits 10
plunder ranches and steal horses. They.
therefore, organized strong parties foo
their defense and to aid the troops. 1t ia
said that Gen, Gomez has severely cen-
sured Col. Cavazos for taking any prison<
ers, and for not treating as bandits those
captured and, under the provisions of the
new law, Immediately executing them.
The movement in the State of NuevG
Leon Is similarly looked on. SOldano, the
WOuld-be revOiutiOnist, recently captured,
was all fixed for horse stealing eXpedis
tion, and was riding an animal stolen
from Texas ranch.
THE DIsCoNTENT SPREADING.
The following interesting account OF thu
situation in Northern Mexico comes from
a New Laredo correspondent and gives a
more connected statement Of affairs than
has been already published: sit is stated
on good authority that the CITY of Lianes,
pf a fnn
nounced against the Federal government.
AS this city is In the interior, aud some
200 miles from the border, 1t is evident that
a feeling OF revolution and discomfort is
rapidly permeatng the whole Of Northern
Mexico. The situation IN TamauliDas is
Identical with that of Nuevo Leon last
September. Gen. Cuellars, Governor Oi
the State, has asked and received permis,
sion TO absent himself from the capital,
and his whereabouts are not known al
present. Ii is said by some that he is in
the City of Mexico, aud his return is look
ed for in the course of two weeks.
A SIMILAR COURSE.
It will be remembered that Gen. Garcia.
Governor Of NueVO Leon, was ordered tU
the City OF Mexico before the uprising in
that State last winter. and as soon as Secy
retary of State Sepulveda took the GuDer-
material chair the discOutents received
their cue from the Federal government
and rebelled. Now, in Tamaulipas, thu
Chief Justice of the state is acting an
Governor, and all towns OF note are prO4
nOuncing against the Federal goyern-
ment, which, however, has more to con-
tend with In this State than IN any othen
on the border. Their appointment OF
Cuellar as chjefOt the fourth military di+
vision, comprising the STATE OF TamaulI-
pas, is meeting with opposition from th9
present commanders. Gen. Gomez and
Col. VillaIreaul, it is said, will join the
insurgent troops before they will allow
themselves TO be depOsed.
CAUSE FOR UNEAsINEss.
The uprising OF Aqua Sagua has given
tbs Federal government some uneasiness
and tney have ordered Gen. Naranjo OF
NueVO Leon TO report at the City Of MeXi-
co, which command he has not seen dt to
comply with, aud he considers that such
"a move would be detrimental 10 his frees
dom and perhaps his health. The
movement TO depOse the civil govern.
ment of Tamaulipas was first
received by the Federal government. Tina
understanding between Gov. Cuellan
and the officials at the City OF Mexicq
provided for the appointing OF the G0yer1
nor TO high military position, ana nB
provisions were made for any trouble iu
NuevO Leon. but now, with good sized
rebellion in both states and much discon1
tent among the Federal troops on tba
border, the trouble is assuming mixed
complexion. IL is reported that
on Aug. all important cities
In the state of TamauIpaa
and NueVO Leon will pronounce. IL now
leaks out that Gen. Cas0s OF Aqua Sagua,
was in Laredo last saturday in disguise
with few Of his most trusted followers
and purchased a large amount of arms
and ammunition with which 70 prosecute
mis- Individual resolution tO the fullest
possible extent. He was defeated In q
slight engagement IN the mountains near
Candida, but lost but two men and es-l
capped with the balance OF his command.
REVOLUTIONIsTs DEFEATED.
LAREDO, IEX., July 24.-Reliable news
was received here last night stating that
the leaders of the revolutionary move-
ment in Tamaullpas have been badly de-
featod near the Sdbinas Mountains. The
loss is not given. The Mexican CONF
mander Of the Federal troops in Nuevo
Laredo says the government has cOncen4
trated 5000 troops on the Rio Grande
frontier, and that this is more than suf ill.,
ciCnt TO quell any revolution.
