Official Gazette OF the Federal gov
-ernment denies any intention on the
part OF the administration to enter
into a concordat with Roma, which
would be directly contrary to the
spirit OF the constitution which

seni-oficial organ OF the govern
ment. says there is no danger to our

and respected by the Mexican people
and accepted by the country, and
does not need to lean for support on

astounding charges of the Iowa
newspapers against the highest Off
ciais of the country, that Mexico
should retain these alleged fugitives,
furnishing them if proved guilty of
bringing stolen funds into the coun-
try under ample provisions of the
penal code. The Herald says it is
far from exaggeration to say, as we
do with the full consciousness of
facts. that American residents here
from all parts of the Union, are dis
eusted with the contemplate tone
