SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Dec. 3O.-The
military authorities Of this department
are OF the belief that Garza has a secret
plan AGAINST Mexico that he will follow
out. The Mexican authorities regard
him with great fear, his work of the
past three months showing them that he
is much more capable leader than
they had supposed. His forces are
known to be well organized. Their
number on the Texas side Of the border
can be but poorly estimated ut the
present time, but according to the claims
made by Captain John G.. Burke of the
United States Third Cavalry. who Is
Thoroughly informed on the situation.
the whole Mexican population of the
border states are sympathizers If not
active followers in the revolutionary
movement.
A telegram from Monterey. Mexico.
received yesterday, states that it is be.
leved that Cara has strong select
following in that city, who have made
every preparation to join him on the
frontier. 1t was the intention of General
Stanley to send Troops G and 7 of the
Third cavalry from the post here to the
scene OF the trouble by special train,
but delay has been caused on account
Of lack of transportation facilities.
Unless their presence is urgently re-
CURED they will not leave here until

They Seriously Interfere With Railroad
Traffic in New Meico--Storms of I'm
heard of Severity.
Associated Press Dispatch by specaI Wires
ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, Dec 30.-Both
the Santa Fe and Atlantic & Pacific
roads are troubled with serious snow
blockades. No eastern mails have been
received here over the Santa Fe for four
days. The passenger trains are in the
blockade in the Rattan Mountains and
in the level stretch of country in the
vicinity Of Springer.
Advices received here are to the effect
that as fast as the snow is shoveled off
the track it would soon again be covered
to greater depth by the drifting. 1t is
also learned that number of engines
are off the track in the blockade.
Tho snow blockade on the Atlantic &
Pacific is between Grants and Chaves,
about 100 miles west Of the city. The
snow storms in the mountains arc re-
ported to be something unheard of for
severity and stories of great suffering
among tho villages in the mountains
are in circulation.
