WASHINGTON, June 6.-The Texas bord er
trouble is far from being settled. Reports re-
ceived here show that there is considerable
difficulty caused by the action of the officials on
tn boundary line. This is shown bya recent
incident. Not long since Senior Romero, the
Mexican minister here, sent q suggestion
to Secretary Blaine that the local
authorities on both sides of the frontier should
abstain from interfering IN the settlement OF
questions affecting the boundaries between the
countries, and confne himself to bringing the
facts to the notice OF the Federal government.
Mr.. Romero's suggestion was semitic Gov. Ross
of Texas and the letter was answered
by Lieut.. Gov. Wheeler, then
acting governor. The reply. was spicy
Mr.. Wheeler says, fguratively, that Mr.. Blaine
and Senior Romero can ''go TO-" He regards
the suggestion as an attempt to limit the cogni-
zance and Jurisprudence Of the courts on the
frontier. and therefore declines to affirmatively
accept the views as set forth by the Mexican
minister. 1t would seem, however, that the
boundary question belongs to the Jurisprudence
Of the Federal, and not the state authorities.
