City of Mexico, Dec. 24.-The press
continues to give hearty support to
President Cleveland. One journal calls
him the champion of all the American
people, and says the Monroe doctrine
now has become a broad principle, af-
firming the rights of all Americans to
their own territory, and the menace Of
absorption has disappeared forever.
Ell Globo tonight says: ENGLAND
has earned the profound antipathy Of
all American countries by its rapacity
and it's utter lack of magnanimity and
its sordid and robbery instincts.
Clevelands stern and vigorous words
have filled the American people with
joy. 1t is an unexpected revenge on
England and a merited humiliation for
her, and she tastes the contempt she
has visited on other nations. The prin-
ciples of America for it's own inhabi-
tants,' watered by the blood of 100, 900
Mexicans in the war against France,
has now grown to full ripeness and its
cvowed to all mankind in Cleveland's
great message"
The press here is generally Of the
same tone.

Francis Roe, retired, against whom
charges were made to the navy depart
ment of disloyal criticisms of the presi-
dent on the Venezuelan message, has
voluntarily written a statement to the
department saying that, while he did
speak Of the bad condition of our coast
