an important one as it will likely mark
the beginning Of an new era in the his

attending the forthcoming convention.

THE EfLtsCoI.oNY
Sad Plight ofthe Unfortunate Color
ed Emigrants:

Washington, July 24.-Bad news
has been received at the state depart
ment from the colony OF American
negr0s who went to Eiexico some
time ago and settled on tract of
land near Theuillalo, A Telegram
was received at the state department
this morning from United States
Consul Sparks at Piedras Negras,
stating that the negroes are in a de-
plorable condition. These enigfants
went from. the southern states Of the
United States, mostly from Alabama
and the Carolinas, under fattering
promises of comfortable homes in
Mexico, but from all accounts they
have been i'll treated and suffered
great hardships from the time of
their arrival in that country: Con-
sui Sparks says the negroes are scat
tered for miles along the road with
out friends. funs or food, LIVING on
branch water. The consul says that
he can do nothing toward their relief
and he fears trouble, because the
negroes are starving.
The consul reports that he has re-
ceived a telegram from DR.. II, Berry
at Torrenton, Mex, to the effect that
153 negroes from the colony were
there in destitute condition, with
lis cases Of contagious disease among
3 .em. The Mexican police had
prevented them from entering the
city.
A letter on this subject has been
received at the state department from
Representative Bankhead of Ala
banla, ihquiring whether the govern
ment could assist in bringing back
to their homes this colony OF celered
citizens. who are destitute and dis
satisfied. The department has tried
in every way to afford relief in this
case, but is is we'll nigh powerless,
and it is possible that if the unfor-
tunate negroes are to be saved from
Starvation private aid must be ex-
tended to them Immediately.
The consul at Piedras Negras has
been Instructed torender any assist
ance he can extend to report any
serious developments.
Our charge at Mexico City has
been informed also of the state of af-
fairs as reported by the consul and
instructed to inquire into the treat
ment Of the Celonists. This depart
ment Of state has no funds which
can be applied to maintaining desti.
tute American citizens other than
seamen in foreign countries or tC
provide for their transportation
home, and it has been obliged to sc
inform the consul and AL those per.
sons who have thus suffered.

MEXICAN BUDGET

The money market continues
4nactiTe, and the enormous and
unprecedented plethora of mon
ey continues. The Bank of
Loadon and Mexico has re-
tluced its interests on deposits
made for one year from 4 to 8
per cent. Bankers are not ship
ping dollars, as at the present
price there is no margin CT
profit, and consequently, ex-
cept By railway companies,
there is nc expectation Of dol
lars. Money, therefore, tends
to accumulate IN banks aud in
private hands. and everybody
looks forward to an epoch of
active investment and specula-
tion: Capitalists are now prir-
cipally going into the cereal
speculation, mainly coffee and
tobacco.
Manufacturing business con-
tinues aetive, owing to the con-
tinued high rate of exchange,
which prevents the full meas
IRE of foreign competition be-
ing experienced.
There is not the slightest
likelihood that the government
will adopt the gold standard.
as has been advertised in the
east by a few bankers, who are
now changing their opinion and
and advocate the retention of
flle silver standard. which is
forcing CT with great rspidity
the International development
OF Mexico.
President Diaz cherishes the
ambition of placing Mexican
credit on a level with that of
Chile, and there is little doubt
felt here that within three years
Mexico will be able to refund
her foreign gold debt at 5 per
cent? thus saving per cent.
German bankers who have
handled the loan are feeling
entirely satisfied with the con
dition of Mexican finances and
have made money on the recent
steady rise in bonds OF this
government.
Copper expectation is in
-crrasing and recent discoveries
assure the permaRence of this
line of expectation.
There is reason to believe
that electrical transmission Of
power from waterfalls will give
