Mexico's Financial Distress.

Ell PAso, Aug. 6.-The Times tomorrow will
contain a long interview with General Ruiz
Sandoyal, in which the reyo.utionist leader
scouts the idea OF Texas deputy marshals arrest
ing Cara, but the most important part of the
interview Is discussion OF the financial condi-
ton OF Mexico. He says the condition Of the
country is one of financial embarrassment.
General Diaz's lack OF knowledge for governing
the country has led to the crisis. He mortgaged
the future OF Mexico to the extent of $50, 600
for the purpose OF building railroads, and now
these roads, by their rates, have killed
the prosperity OF the country. The national
treasury has not money to pay the
interest on the railroad bonds for the
coming year, and to cover this deficiency
ii is proposed TO float loan OF $4,000 0O0 Desti
tuition is universal in the country. The de-
moralization III the official atmosphere is such
that last week Senior Romero, recently nomi.
mated minister OF the treasury, declared officially
that 100000 per snnum might have been
economical during the sixteen years General
Dlaz has been In power. that is to say, $2.00d000
more than the railroad cost II the proposed
100000 90 loan is not foated, no other resource
is left but TO take the money by force from
uonal banks to pay the outstanding forfeit debt
The state of Zacatecas has already reached this
stage and Is forcing loan from the people

The Navy Department Likely to Rejece
His Port Orchard Bid.

WASHINGTON CRY. Aug. Especial !
Today the chances seem 10 be against tho
contract for building the dry dock at Port
Orchard, Wash, being awarded to Mat
thew Brannagan, of Seattle, who was the
lowest bidder, at SAILS, 500. At the navy
department it was said this afternoon
that there was vexatious hitch
over the matter. The department has had
continual correspondence since the bids
were opened with people in Washington,
the purpose being TO find out whether
Brannagan would be able to carry out the
contract If it should be given him. Tho
reports up 10 the present appear TO be
against Brannagan. The correspondence
is now in the hands of Secretary Tracy.
Before acting he expects further informa-
ton regarding brannagan's responsibility.
The second lower bidder was Daniel
McPhee, of Port Townsend, at $446, 2O7.
McPhee has been asked by the depart.
ment to withdraw his bid. It is limited
that ne is not considered responsible. The
third lowest bidder is Contractor Phillips.
OF San Francisco, at $3.50, 500, and the
navy department officials are satisfied Of
his responsibility. 1t is probable that
Phillips will yet he awarded the contracts

LANSING, Mich, Aug. 6.-The business
of the special session of the legislature was
finished at 8 p. m, but final adjournment
did not occur until Monday at noon.
Both the Brown senatorial measure and
the White apportionment bill were
passed with practically unanimous
vote. The senatorial measure provides
for thirty-two districts, as did the act de-
clared unconstitutional, but affords a
more equitable division of counties as to
population. Under the House apportion.
ment bill no change is made In the num-
Der of representatives: it still remains at
100. The outcome is regarded with
the greatest of satisfaction by
both parties. Each is able to
figure majority of both branches of the
legislature. Politically it is very difficult
to determine the advantage to either
party. Governor Winans expressed him.
self as entirely satisfied. and sent verbal
message of congratuation to the legisls-
ture. The bills have been engrossed and
are now in the hands of the governor.

LAND OFFICE BUSINESS.
MI. Carter Compares His Administrator
With That OF the Democrats.

MT. Carter Compares His Administration
With That OF the Democrats.
WASHINGTON CITY, April 6.-[Special. i
The Republicans of the country will prob
ably be able TO use the report Of the COM
missioner of the general land office, which
will be given to the press tomorrow, to
some advantage in the present political
campaign. The report was written by
Thomas II. Carter, who is the
present chairman of the national
Republican committee. Mr.. Carter
prepared it after he had decided to take
charge of the national campaign. The re-
port he issued last year was full of brist-
ling points made against Democratic
methods in the land department when in
control, which were by no means bene-
fetal to the settlers. This report was
scrutinized by the present Democratic
congress, but never has there
been any attempt to deny
any of the assertions made by
Mr. Carter against the management of the
department under the Cleveland admins
tration. While this years report will not
condemn the Democrats as much as the
one used last year. it contains that which
can be used with effect by the Republicans
III tHiS CdinpdiSn III every STATE WHcIo
there are public lands.
II will show that the land business of the
country was fearfully disorganized during
the four years that Cleveland's officials
ruled the department.. Under the Repub-
lican rule for the past three years there is
shown to be good progress and per-
feet organization. Mr.. Carriers pres
ent report will not arraign the
Democratic party as q party, but
will bring out very prominently
the Encouragement of the land depart
ment under the administration of the
notorious Sparks. Since the Republicans
succeeded the Cleveland regime the set
tiers have been protected in all their
rights. Then Commissioner Carter has
always shown disposition to take advice
from such men as Senator Teller and Re-
preventative Wilson in regard to land
affairs in Washington state, and this can
be said to be the case in other Western
Nata

Canada Recedes on Canal Question.

OTTAWA, Aug. 6.-At meeting Of the
cabinet today it was decided to abolish
the rebate OF IS cents a ton on ali grain
shipped by the st. Lawrence canal to
Montreal, and instead the government has
decided to establish rebate of 20 cents .
ton on all grains passing through the
Weliand and ST. Lawrence canals. Ameri.
can and Canadian vessels will be treated
alike. This removes the discrimination
IN favor of Montreal complained of by
President Harrison in his recent message
to congress. The feeling now prevails
that President Harrison will not retaliate.
