Mexico, reports having encountered two
unknown boats heavily armed with
canon and apparently well equipped
with all the munitions of a When
hailed the boats made no reply, and the
Mexican fishermen, being afraid to
make any further advance, made their
escape from the locality as fast as pos
sible. 1t is thought the ships have some
bearing on the Chan revolution, al
though it is reported that there are
pirates manned by renegade Cubans
coasting about the waters of the gulf,
and along the coast of South America.
There have been numbers Of strangers
seen within the past few days in Pro-
gresso, Campeche, Merida and other
points in Yucatan, whose business is
unknown, and who are evidently
Cubans. 1t is alleged they are insur-
gents, and are in Mexico for the pur-
pose of gaining recruits for the rebel
cause on that insurgent island. Cuba
has many sympathizers in Mexico in
the attempt to throw off Spanish rule.

Brand was informed of the trouble and
he delegated his Cook county deputy to

The situation was a p%erplexing one,
and as he could not find out for certain

belong, be was powerless to take any
steps in the matter. After q long and
careful study of the situation he solved
the problem to the satisfaction of all
concerned and peace ono more reigns

of the deputy sheriff was that each of
the women claiming the child should
have it for a month at a time, pending
