ENGLISH INFLUENCE IN MEXICO.
Are They a Menace to the United State
or Not.

Are They Menace to the United States
or Not
LONDON, May 29--If the people Of the
United States see nothing to alarm them
in the increasing predominance of Eng
land in Mexico, her acquisitions there
have not failed to awaken attention In
Europe. During the last twenty years
Germans have patiently developed trade
in the land Of the Aztecs, which has
proved remunerative in the highest de-
gree. Those of her merchants who have
succumbed to the climate have been re-
placed by other fearless seekers after
wealth, and their tenacity and shrewd
ness have been repaid by q virtual mo-
nopoly of many kinds OF business. They
have also sought to make their gains the
means of extending the influence Of
Germany there. They see the United
States is Indifferent to the extensive
boundaries beyond the Rio Grande,
and they have not failed to &C
quaint the Home Government with the
splendid resources Of Mexico. That a
fertile and wealthy country capable OF
such development has precisely what
luduf ouu NiShCS oh
things to obtain. II European jealousies
forbid the grasping of Holland with lis
fine ports and priceless colonies, what q
compensation Mexico would be. But the
German dreams of dominion there have
been rudely disturbed by the grasp which
England has placed on the railway sys-
TENS of the Southern Republic. The
National is in possession of English
capitalists, the Central will be soon un
der their control, and negotiations are
pending which will put the transporta-
ton facilities of the entire country In
their hands.
The draining of the Valley of Mexico,
an enormous enterprise, necessary for
the safely OF capitalists, is being under
taken by an English company, and an
