clustering.
DENVER, November 1Sth.-Mr. Bohden,
Mexican Consul at Kansas City, is stop
ping here day or two. In an interview
this afternoon he said the proposed hli-
clustering expedition into Mexico from
America was one of the most tlagrant
frauds yet perpetrated upon a credulous
people " | cannot find language to de-
nounce it as | would wish" he SAID.
q The assertions made by alleged recruiting
officers, that the scheme was Endorsed by
wealthy Mexicans, is wholly untrue No
man who knows the Mexican people and
their unalterable love for and faith in their
country would ever make such a state
ment or give any credence to it. | chal-
lenge the organizers at Denver or any other
part of the United States, connected with
this filibustering scheme, to name any
prominent Mexican who is recognized as a
prominent man in his own country, who
favors the scheme. / would not now take
any notice Whatever of this thing, for the
whole affair has been sufficiently miiculed
and sneered at by the most powerful news
papers in the United States, but l
consider it my duty to warn every
body not to heed any of these
alluring promises. Men who believe
them may be unaware of the fact that in
recruiting for this purpose they make them
selves liable to punishment by the United
States Government. The whole affair was
gotten up by peace-disturbers and border
ruffians, who have natural allies in the
neighboring States, and their only chances
Of success are those of being shot. The
schemers forget that the days of successful
revolutions in Mexico are past. In the old
days, the transportation of troops was diff

rapidly to the rendezvous of the rebels,
and the organized forces of the Govern
ment have no difficulty in suppressing any
revolt. Only a few weeks ago a distin-
guished Mexican, who had held a promi-
nent position in a former Administration,
was implicated in a revolutionary scheme.
He was sh5t for high treason, and in Mex
leo they do not give traitors long trial.
They send them speedily to place of exc
cution, where files of soldiers do the work

The Great ." That-is-It ?-
BosToN, November 1Sth.-The notorious
Wilson-MCen trial terminated in a verdict
last evening for the defendant, who is
awarded s95 222 16 on notes given Moen
by Wilson. twill be remembered that,
while Wilson sued Moen for 81 ,000,0 600,
Moen as an offset put in a claim for about
sos. 600 due him on notes received from
Wilson, and the verdict covers the princi-
pal, with interest at 6 per cent. Wilson
has applied for new trial, but it probably
will not be granted. People now will be
curious to learn if Wilson, defeated in the
Courts, will seek revenge and divulge the
well-guarded secret, explaining to the
public the nature of his horrible claim on
the wealthy, religious and respectable citi-
zen of Worcester. No one for a moment
supposes that Moen gave Wilson quarter
of a million dollars without some con-
sideration. Thus far Wilson has been
shrewd enough to keep his secret, well
knowing that by so doing he might posi-
bly, get still more money out of Aloen

time in America at the Twenty-lhird-stree
Tabernacle. 1t had previously been exhib-

had evoked criticisms, mainly enthusiastic.
There was q large attendance of invited
journalists and others at the Tabernacle
There was one note only OF comment, and
that was pitched in high KEY of admira-
ton. The impression made by this paint

Tabernacle all the afternoon. The people
seemed to hold their breaths as they gazed.
There are twenty-three prominent figures
in tie painting. The scene is Roman
Court Of justice, presided over by Plate,
stern and self-possessed, but with shade
of compassion in his held features. The
central figure is Christ, robed IN white,
and with his hands tied IN front of him.
