Recent newse from Mexico is
that General Rochn, at the head
co is that General Rochn, at the head
Of the National Military academy at
Chepaultepec, has not reported for duty
in ten days. His whereabouts are mys
terry, although prominent government of
ficials declare that he Is at she cipital.
This may be true, for while Mexico is
republic and has repudiated Roman
Catholicism, it's rulers have not entirely
abandoned inquisitorial methods when
dealing with what they regard ms trcach-
cry.
The monasterics are still there, and
time has not impaired their strength and
security, and when the time and cffense
of an individual suit for disappear
ance Il is easily managed. Some por-
sons surnise that General Rocha, know
ing this, has lcuded the grasp Of the
authorities, and that he has gone to join
the revolutionists. who are suid to be
rallyng in the STATE of Nuey Leon
This theory Is not altogether improbl-
ble, President Diuz has held his high
position longer than most Of his iInmedi-
ute predecessors; he has built m wide
spread antagonism among people with
whom change in government had, prior
to his accession TO power becnme Il habit;
Il is natural that ambitious men, famil-
inr with the rcstlossness Of their country
men, should aspire to supersede him as
virtual Sovereign, and that they should
select "A time like this to prosecute their
plans.

rank and file Of the army is gathered,

bly, regarded by the present ruling party
Added to this is an attachment TO the
church Of Rome which withstands all
efforts of government TO discover
With these facts in view It is by no
means absurd to hclicve that somc Of
the leading disanrected spirits would
avail themselves Of time which seems
propitious, and It Is by no means iu-
credible that Rocha may be of the ca
bal. Should this prove to be 50, he will
be dangerous opponent, for It is OF
likely that any other man knows more
Of the military resources of the country
nor is better qualified to conduct a revo-
luton than is the military instructor OF
Mexico's cadets.

A HUGE GIFT


Chicago, Dec. 27.-John D. Rookie
Teller has made a huge gift to the
University of Chicago which sum is
supposed to be over 81 100000, but the
exact figures are not given out. For
the last few months the trustees Of the
university have been eudeavoring to
pursuade Rockefeller to give them S.
10000 in order to carry out some Of
their plans. The Now York capitalist
objected to giving that sum outright,
but submitted a proposition for a vast
sum to be given, providing certain
plans which no suggested were carried
out. This proposition was submitted to
the trustees today. II cannot give you
the exact figures" said one OF the
trustees this afternoon, but will say
through tho generosity of Rockofelier
We have now funds which will enable
President Harrison TO carry the insti.
tuition through onthe broad basis which
he conceived for it,
