The liquor traffic costs the people OF

LARrDo. TEX. February 8.-Advices re:
ceived from the city OF Puebla. capital OF
the State OF Puebla. seventy-six miles
southeast of the City of Mexico, says that
a financial and commercial crisis prevails
there. and that many business-hOuses
have closed their doors. Much dlssatis-
faction is expressed with the local and
Federal authorities. The Clerical party.
which is in a large majority IL Puebla, are
still sore over the late attempt 10 urive
the monks from their cloisters, and II IS
said that ii the bishop had not advocated
prudence the people would have risen en-
faasse and oyerpowered the troops and the
authorities. -.
A correspondent who has been travelling
through Northern Mexico says tnat ne

spot on the Mexican side OF the Kio Bravo
and Join the Cara standard. In the mean
time they are at work among the ranch
men, who are their friends.
Asked If they counted on money and ara
from Americans, they would not speak.
The feeling on the frontier IL anti-Dlaz;

ent, he is too strong In power TO be upset.
Money for the rebels is evidently coming
from ring, undoubtedly the cattle barons
and mining kings of Northern Mexico.

Washington, and some OF whose members
are prominent in politics and finance in
the United States. All the bands the cor
respondent saw were well armed, with
abundance of ammunition, but poorly
mounted.
When asked what they thought OF Ame-
rIcsn troops trying TO stop them they SAID !:
"Ihey are deluded by Dlaz agents. who
have deceived the American government,
the press, and the people. The military
have no heart in this work IN favor OF
Diaz." They added: Does It not seem
strange to you that all the United States
soldiers here have 80 far been unable to
catch Cara, knowing him to be within
ten or twelve miles from them?" Many
prominent ranchmen expressed wishes TOR
thesuccess ofthe revolution, which they say
must come, and when shown the strength
of the present President the answer was
generally d shrug of the shoulders and
=" Who knows! 1t is better TO dc lighting
than starving" IL may safely be said that
the greatest dissatisfaction exists against

wards him, for Diaz is knOwn 70 love blood.
