MURDERED MEyICANs.

The Reign OF Terror Instituted by General
Garcin-A Suggestion that tho United
States Should Interfere.
SAN ANTONIO, Ten, Oct. 3O.-A letter
from one OF the officials at Rio Grandc
City, Texas, says that First Lieutenant
Bazan, fiery young officer OF the AIexi-
can army, has deserted to this side.
Some weeks ago his brother was caught
by Garcia's soldiers and shot as Il sus-
pected rcvolutionist. Lieutenant Bazau
OH hearing OF the assassination sent a
challenge to General Garcia. Learning
that his lie was in danger and that his
execution only awaited the order OF ar
rest issued by General Garcia, Lieutcn-
ant Bazan deserted to Texas, after bid
ding farewell to the company that had
served under him.
Evidence continues 10 accumulate
that tho men executed by Garcia were
not guilty OF the olFcnscs for which they
died and that some, OF them were en-
titled to the protection OF the Stars
and Stripes by reason OF having for
maily declared intentions OF becoming
American citizens. Reports arc re-
ceiyed OF other like executions which
arc studiously concealed by the Mexi-
can military. Men without passes into
the country issued by Mexican consuls
are vigorously dealt with, and travelling
overland beyond the ranches near the
Rio Grande banks is stopped and no
crossing is allowed except at ferries,
these being few and lar between.
