The Mex,co-Texas Border War.

The Mexico-Texas Border War.
SAN Antonio. TEX, December 23.-The
only information received at the military de-
partment headquarters here from the scene
of Garzia's revolutionary troubles along the
Rio Grande border was a dispatch 10 Assist
ant Adjutant General Martin frcn Cartain
Johnso OF The Third cavalry. which stated
he had just returned to Fort Brown after a
three days scouting trip up the river. on the
Texas side, in search of the revolutionary
Mexicans and offenders against the United
States revenue lava. None of GarZIas men
were encountered and none are believed to
have crossed over into Texas from Mexico
along that portion of the border. The start
ling report which reached here from Fort
Mcintosh that Captain Francis Hardie, Third
cavalry, and a detachment of fifty men had
met "a armed force of Garzia's followers
near Carbon, Texas. and that in the engage
ment that ensued fo1r cen United States SOL
diers were killed. had up to late hour re-
ceived no official confirmation. General
Stanley was expectantly awaiting some word
from Captain Harde, but 10 communication
has been had with him as yet. IL is known
that he is in pursuit of 4 detachment of revO-
lutiOnists, aad that bloody event occurred
"a reported. 1t is believed at the post here
that he must have been drawn into ambush
and his men massacred. In the telegraph to
General Stanley, Captain Rourke states that
Garzia recently made speech to his follow
ers at Los Angeles, lex. in which he asserted
that the present campaign would be COM
p!etely successful, and after he had over.
thrown the ninistratlon of President Diaz
he would then insist that part of Texas be
added to Mexico. The Mexican consul here
received dispatch from the Mexican consul
at Neuvo Laredo, stating that a force of
Garzia's men and a regiment of Mexican
troops met some distance below that place,
and the Mexicans made stand, but were de-
feated with a loes of four men. The Mexi-
can government is rushing men to the from
tier.
Governor Hosg has sent a detachment of
rangers to the scene of the troubles, and they
will aid the military authorities in suppress
ing the uprising.

NEW YoEx, December cS.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of ,rade says:
Holiday trade is not always just measure
of prosperity of the people, but it is sa.:.fac-
tory to know that at most points it is unu-
sually large this year. General trade this
season Is unusually light, merchants being
engaged in taking stock, but at many points
it is reported larger than usual, and even
larger than last year. Reports show less
complaint as to collections, and large trade
is in progress
At Chicago sales and collections of mer-
chandIse exceed last years in spite OF soft
country roads, and holiday trade is phenom-
email. Receipts of wheat. corn and rye are
double those of past years. Of dressed beef,
three times last years, increase OF flour is a
third, In cured meats quarter, and in oats.
barley and cattle large. notwithstanding
complaints of car famine throughout the
west Money Ia easy and demand good.
At St. Lonis milder weather checks trade,
but the holiday business is large, and the
trade in clothing, shoes and other seasonable
GOo0s Is above the average and money easier.
At Kansas City the holiday trade is brisk.
Though the blockade affects the receipts,
cattle and grain trade is fairy healthy.
Great industries close the year with moro
than usual activity, even wooden mills hav-
ing orders enough to keep them fairly en-
plOyed. and a number have recently started,
but none shut down. Cotton manufactures
find good demand, and numerous enlarge
ments Of plants are reported. Shoe factories
com plain that usual orders are Lacking and
yet they are fairly active. Paper mills are
busy and making many additions to ma
5hinery and buildings. Iron manufacturers
have been turning out more pig iron than
ever before, though some works stop for the
holidays and the tone of the market is
stronger, with rather more demand for fin
ished products.
Speculation continues moderate, wheat
having risen 1Ac. with sales of 100000
bushels, corn having declined l cent and oats
q fraction. Coffee unchanged and pork un-
changed. Cotton dropped a sixteenth below
cents, with receipts from plantations ex-
ceeding last years to date by 5000 bales.
a very large output of coal leads operators to
expect lower prizes.
Tie business failures throughout the cOun-
try the past week number ~, as compared
with 335 the previous week. For the CORES
pondiny week last year they were 3SS.

EnormousL osses Of Miners.

TERRE HAU1E, IND, December 29.-It is
not a settled fact that the Indiana miners,
though the strike is declared of, will be able
to get regular work at once, but the proba-
bilities seem to he that they will. Conserv-
alive estimates place the loss resulting from
the strike at million and three-quarters Of
dollars. Considered in it's whole breadth
and exten.-something lncaiculable with any
degree of definiteness-it was probably more
than that Nearly one-half of the enormous
sum is out of the pockets of the men, or rath-
er was never put in them. A goodIy portion
of the remainder shows up in greatly de-
creased earnings of the railways.
