RECIPROCITY WITH MEXICO.
A Move to Be Made With That
End in View.

MONTREAL, Cal June 4.--From
private advices received "a this city II
is reported that Rumualdo Pachero
United States minister to Guatemala
who is we'll known in this place, is
soon to displace Minister Ryan as
the accredited representative of the
United States In Mexico. This con-
templated change in Pacheo's mis-
sion is said to be due to the desire OF
our secretary of state to successfully
establish reciprocity with Mexico.
The negotiations between our gov
ernment and Guatemala, which re-
suited in the adoption of reciprocity
10y the latter, were managed by
Pacheo, who is of Spanish origin,
and peculiarly adapted for such deli
cate diplomatic work. This success
has inspired the administration with
the belief that Pacheo can induce
the MexicsH government to respond
to its desire for closer reciprocal re-
lations. What disposition is to be
made of Ryan cannot be ascertained.
Pacheo will leave San Francisco for
Guatemala on Saturday, but is ex-
pected t. return soon to assume his
duties at his new post.
PACHEO HAS NOT HEARD OF IT.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 4.-Minis.
ter Pacheo was seen at a late hour
last night regarding the dispatch
from Monterey. He said: "I per
sonally have heard nothing about
the matter, and therefore / think
the news must be unfouuded / sail
for Guatemala on the San Juan on
Monday, and orders must come very
to prevent my departure.
You can say there is really nothing
in the rumor, as | should have been
sure to have been the first to be off,

THE steady and increasing agitation
OF the road Improvement question in
different parts OF this country has had
the effect OF producing from the state
department large volume OF consul
lar reports on the streets and high
ways of Europe and the methods OF
constructing them. The most salient
impression made by these reports on
the American mind is that even such
comparatively poor countries as Swift
orland aud Ireland have far better
roads than the great and wealthy re-
public of the new world. But when
we find that Canada's road system also
rises superior to our own. and that
even British Columbia which is not
much older than Kansas. possesses
fine highways. we must acknowledge
that in this most important respect
