and attacked them with a knife. Ser

was completed.

BETHLEHEM, Pa, Feb. 19.-According
to the will of Asa Packer, in round
numbers, the monetary endowments to
Lehigh university library and St. Luke's
hospital are 81, 300 900 and $500 900 re-
spectively. According to the terms of
the agreement with the Reading rail-
road, the guaranteed income of each in
stitution will be increased 40 per cent.
The Lehigh Valley last year paid per
cent. dividend, and next year the in
come will be per cent. This will in
crease the income of the university $780,
900, and make it 100000 The total in
come of the Packer South Bethlehem
institutions will next year, according to
this estimate, be 1854, 900. Should the
full limit of the dividend, 10 per cent,
be earned by the Reading and paid to
the Lehigh Valley, the income would
be $220, 900.

GARzA's REVOLUTION.
Supported by Influential Mexicans or
Both Sides of the Border.

Supported by Influential Mexicans on
Both Sides of the Border.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Feb. 19.-Infor-
nation received here confirms the re-
ports that the Garza revolution is sup
ported and upheld by wealthy and in
fiuential Mexicans residing both in the
United States and Mexico. The names
of a number of Mexicans of means re-
siding in Texas, who are secretly sup
porting the Garza revolution, are in the
hands of General Schofield, at WASH
ington having been forwarded to him
by General Stanley. General Stanley
for some time has been making a quiet
investigation into the matter and his
disclosures sustain the opinion which
has been freely expressed in official
circles at Washington that the ''sinews
of war" were being furnished to Garza
by those secretly at work TO overthrow
the present Mexican government.
The intiIuatiou is broadly made that
the large American interests in Mexico
have something to do with the present
unstable condition of Mexican affairs,
that the discomfort is being famed by
Americans in Mexico and along the
border, and that the ultimate hope of
these classes is that the United States
may be led to annex Mexico.
Even daring the Chilean troubles,
when to the public war appeared near,
high official of the war department
declared that the United States had
more reason to fear trouble from the
CARA revolution than from Chile.

REASONS FOR THE OPPOSITION.

An Address Which Charges the
Senator with Disrcgarding Party
Interests to Further Personal
Ends, Opposing Increased Power

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 1e,-The fight to
overthrow the leadership of Senator NJ
S Quay and to prevent his reelection to
the United States senate has commenced
within the lines of the Republican
party, Many prominent Republicans i'll
che state have formed the Pennsylvania
Republican association. the motto being
"Republicanism VS.. Quayism." This or
ganization has permanent officers with
headquarters in hIis city, and its mem
bership extends into every Republican
county in the state. 1t proposes placing
in nomination III each district next fall a
candidate pledged to oppose the re-elec.
tion of Mr.. Quay to the United States
senate. A lengthy address is issued,
giving reasons for the opposition to
Senator Quay. Some of the reasons
given are:
Reasons for the Opposition.
awe oppose him because he has forced
unpopular nominations and platforms
which have brought defeat to the party
Because he has instlgated, or coun'
fenanced, the defeat Of the party's can.
didates to achieve some personal end.
Because he has both by words and
actions discreditcd the pledge policy Of
his party in behalf of a agenuine, efficient
and businesslike reform of civil service
and has compelled Office holders to de-
vote their time and money to political
work in his behalf
because of his attempts to embarras5
the present sound and patriotic admin
istration, due to the fact that the federal
offices in this state were not placed en-
tircly at his dispooal.
Because he has repeatedly opposed
the nomination of Hon. james q.
Blaine for the presidency when the
overwhelming sentiment of the Repub
ican voters of the state was favorable
q to his selection, and recently has pre-
tended to be ardently in favor of him in
order that he might secure national
delegates whom he could dispose Of to
his own advantage.
Because so long as he dared to do SO
he opposed every change of party rules
calculated to increase the power of the
voters in county, district, state OF nation.
Because he has had primaries and
conventions called long before there was
any necessity fer SO doing, IN order to
forcstall growing public sentiment
against him or his candidates.
because he has insisted that no re-
cognition should be accorded to any elo-
ment of the party, or to any of its lead
ers, who were not willing to act with or
be subservient TO him.
Because the system which he has up
held has driven MANY able and honest
men out of the Republican party, OF
has discouraged them from taking
active part in public life.
because we'believe the Republican
voters have n right to choose then

being selected by Office holders, without
regard to character, ability OF fitness,

Diaz Will Be Re-EIected.

MONTEREY, Mex, Feb. ia mons
ter mass meeting filled this town with
enthusiasm in favor of Diaz for fourth
term in June. Garza's claim that the
constitution has been violated by the
successive reflections of Diaz is not
valid, the provision forbidding the pres
ident's reelection having been abrogated
several years ago. 1t is not believed
that any candidate will announce in op-
position to Diaz, since such an act in
Mexico is regarded as an open expression
of hostility, if not treason.
