Mexico Friendly to the Insurgents.

Nnw YoHK, May 2G.-A private letter
received in this city to-day from the city
of Mexico, written May 10Th by bust
ness man who has ample facilities for
getting correct information, says there is
much reason to believe the Mexican au-
thorlties are giving aid to the Chilian i'll
sUrgcnts. The Esmeralda had been able
to get all the coal she wanted, and private
advices from Mazatlan reported that the
war materials brought from San Francis
co had been transferred there early this
month To ships belonging to the Chilian
insurgents. The same letter mentions
rnnlors of a secret treaty between Moxi-
co and San Salvador against Guatemala.

lnted the Esmeralda llag. This making
it an open question whether this was "a
recognition by Mexico of the Chilian
insurgents. The captain of the I,smer.

that 1t Was not his intention to take coal
