Sectional Feeling.


WASHINGTON. August 4ih.-Some little
feeling OF a sectional character was raised
in the Senate Yesterday during the debate
en- the adjournment resolutions. Mr. Hoar
referred to the massacres within the last
few years in Louisiana, South Carolina,
Alabama, Mississippi and other Southern
States, and stated that in every one of these
cases, so far as was shown to the people by
the press. the negro and the Republicans
were the victims. If any OF these outrages
had been perpetrated on an American citi-
zen in Mexico or Canada, Congress would
not adjourn until it had made provision to
put the nation in condition for war Kenna
and Salisbury protested against the pro-
jecting of such language into the debate at
this time, as it was evidently intended as
an electioneering device TO aid the Repub-
ican fall campaign.
Texas and Pacific Railway.
New YoRK, August 4th.-Wistar and the
Fleming committee, interested in the re-
organization of the Texas and Pacific Rail
way Company, had long conference at

plan for harmonious reorganization, and
the friends Of the Wistar party declared
subsequently that they would proceed with
the reorganization, proceeding under the
original Wistar plan. The Fleming party
say they, too, will 90 ahead in the execu-
ton of their plan. At the meeting Gen.
Wistar repudiated the insinuation that his
committee was acting in furtherance of the
interests of the Missouri-Pacific Railway OF
of ]. Gould. The plan submitted by the
Fleming committee was approved in some
features by the Wistar people, but they in
sisted that Wistar and his associates should
be allowed to control the process of reor-
ganization. The Fleming committee de-
clined to assent to this, but offered to unite
the two committees, placing Wistar at the
head of the new body, but putting the
work of carrying out the plan in the hands
of subcommittee of seven, TO be com.
posed of three Wistar members and foul
Fleming members President Olcott, of the
Fleming committee, to be Chairman of the
sub committee. The compromise was re-
jected by Wistar and his friends.

awaits with anxiety the action of the HOUSE
upon the Cutting resolutions. The recent
mass meetings here lacked harmony, and

The speakers caused our Mexican neighborS
to fear a mob force for the purpose of lib
Grating Cutting. Of course, no such fear is
well grounded as yet. 1t is rumored that
Cutting Will receive heavy sentence. and
that President Diaz will at once pardon
him and give him his liberty. Strange
things are done in Mexico. As strange as
this may sound, it might turn out true, for
good Mexican lawyers in Paso del Norte,
and even the District Judge. Nicholas Ignio,

admit that the Federal Government of
Mexico cannot interfere in the State Courts
of chihuahua, but can pardon State con-
victs.
