Texas Frenzied at the Impudence of Mex
lean Soldiers.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, August THE Globe
Democrats New Laredo Mexico special
says: "All day long yesterday the recent
ly arrived trOOpsin this place paraded the
streets in different parts of the city. The
force numbers about 4, 900 men, of which
one company is cavalry and one artillery.
The latter company went clear TO the river
bank two or three times and swung the
muzzles of their cannon toward Texas with
great bravadO. The exhibition of unCalled
for Mexican impudence caused the blood
of men on the Texas side to boil with in
dignatiOn Eighty cavalry horses for the
Rio Grande arrived at Laredo last night
bound for Brownsville"
Excitement is intense along the whole
length of the Rio Grande. In the neigh
borhOod of Eagle Pass the citizens are fair
ly frenzied with Indignation. Del Rio is in
but little less excited condition. 4. i.
Tugwell, attorney at Eagle Pass, is defend
ing Sheriff Oglesby and EXtraditiOn Agent
Hotlstetter on the charge OF kidnapping
ArresureS. Tugwell, for his three clients,
Oglesby, HoilStctter and Deputy ROnita-
clio Diaz. has waived examination on the
charge OF kidnapping, and the men wereput
under 81 900 bonds each To appear before
the Grand Jury. The defence will consist
in proving that it has been an immemOrial
custom among Rio Grande officials to trade
prisoners for whom is offered a reward. IN
der instructions from Gov. Ireland, charges
will be preferred against the three prison
ers for conspiracy to murder, They could
not stand trial now, owing to the strong
feeling against them.
Consul Linn, ut Piedras Ncgrls, owing
to the dilatOrneSS of the Washington Gov
ernment, threatened 10 resign, but q pc
tition, signed by nearly every citizen of
Maverick county, was presented, asking
him to stay. The Consul says the men in
the interior of the United States cannot
form any idea of the brutality To which the
Americans are subjected. \ prominent
citizen of Eagle Pass says that neither
Oglesby nor Hotlstetter could get an office
in the county again. They are universally
condemned If anybody thinks the peo-
plc there do not want war he has only to
20 among them and hear them talk.
f. O'Neil, who owns land in Mexico and
has lived there a long time, ascribeS the
whole Mexican trouble to schemes of an
nexatiOnists, headed by ex-Ministcr of War
