STATUS OF MEXICO.
Reviewed by Diaz I'm His Address
to Congress


CITY OF MEXICO. Sept. 16.-The address
delivered this evening by President Diaz at
the opening of congress, referring to dfplo-
matte relations with the United States in
part, is as follows:
On May 6 last a convention was concluded
at Washington, whereby the International
water boundary commission between Mexico
and the United States was empowered to
study certain questions bearing ON the dis
tribution of the waters of the Bravo or
Grande river The water boundary commits
sion has settled two grave questions of dis
puted territory arising from changes in the
Chamisla tract. claimed by both commits
sions on behalf of their government and
the other regarding the San Elizario isIet,
which was awarded by both commissions to
Mexico.
Referring to the attack on the NogaIes
customs house. the president says Mexico $
legation at Washington has been instructed
to draw the attention of the department Of
state to the case, and that as soon as the
judicial investigation, now In progress at
Sonora, is completed, the extradftion OF the
guilty parties will be asked of the United
States.
The president then goes on to refer to the
recent attempt to hold a pan-Ameriean con-
ference In the City of Mexico to consider the
Monroe doctrine. This idea originated with
the government of Ecuador. The congress
had dissolved after only few meetings and
without accomplishing anything, but il does
not follow that its aims Will not be some day
attained.
The mining industry In Mexico has made
dent Diaz. as shown mot only by the large
number Of grants, but by the returns of the
exports Of the precious metals, which, dur
ing the first nine nsoHthssof the nscal year
ending June last amounted to $50, 86S 900,
against sss, SEQ 600 in the corresponding period
of the preceding year.
The most important part OF the message
relates to the financial situation In Mexico.

fiscal year to $50 900, 900, the largest annual
revenue yet recorded and the year closes on

NEWPORT, r. l., Sept. 16.-The
battleship Texas, which left the North
Atlantic squadron this afternoon for
the purpose of getting a supply of tor
pedees here, struck rock while COM
ing into the harbor at $50 o'clock, and
IS hard and fast. She rests on the

The position of the vessel is danger
GUS one, and should a storm set in, it
would go hard with her. The
place where the vessel struck Is almost
opposite the torpedo station When
she reached the harbor the tide was
running out strongly and was at about
half ebb. The first warning the officers
had of the danger was a slight shock
just forward Of amidships. Capt. Glass
at once ordered the port anchor out.
The hook held firmly and the ship
gradually swung broadsfde on the
beach. She was firm and could not be
moved so as to make the least head
way by means of the anchor. The eb-
bling tide left her a fixture for the night
at least. Capt. Henry Glass and
Lieut.. d. j. Kelly were both on the
bridge and neither supposed the water
at that point to be so shallow
An examination was made at once
and 1t was decided to send for a tug.
with the tide below half ebb, five faith
oms of water were found under the
bow and. about the same depth under
the stern. AS the tide fell the bow
began to appear above water and to-
night 1t is out of water. The stern
is ON line with the water. All the
naval officials who have seen the yes
sci, admit that her position is a
dangerous one. The tug was Obliged

The benefit rendered to William Harrison
the local billiard expert, at Cenover's hall
last night Afforded an opportunity for the
many admirers of the beautiful game to Wit
ness some exceptionally brilliant playing. The
feature of the exhibition was a 2O6-point
game, fourteen-inch balk line. between Mr.
aarrison and Thomas j. Gallagher, the cham
pion shortstop Of America. Mr. Gallagher
enjoys the distinction of ranking next to Ives

Paul, and Charley Capen, of Minneapolis
which the former won by the score of rs to
game. 10 points up. between Thayer and
young Foley, which Thayer won by a score
of Is to II. The latter contest abounded in
number of difficult and surprising shots.
Then came the match between Messrs
Gallagher and Harrison. 1t was replete with
skillful shots, admirable position play and
brilliant execution on the part of both play
ers though notably in the performance of
Mr.. Gallagher. The latter was somewhat
handicapped,as he was playing with a strange
cue on strange table and was not in the
best of condition, having journeyed from Chi
cago the previous night
MIR. Gallagher set swift pace from the
start, gaining lead that Harrison could not
overcome, though as usual the latter made
points in four innings Gallagher opened up

ELECTED frequent applause from the apprecia-
tive spectators.
Harrison did not strike his gait until the
seventh inning when he finally got the worries
under control and clicked off 80 points, VIII CHI

inning the young expert rolled UP q more

rest.
PARIS, Sept 16-There is no truth
In the report that Alexander Sullivan,
Of Chicago, the Irish leader, has been
arrested here
CHICAGO, Sept. ia sensational
coloring was thrown about the illness
of Mrs. Alexander Sullivan, who is suf-
fering from an attack of apoplexy, by
a dispatch this morning announcing
the arrest of Mr.. Sullivan in Paris. 1t
was intimated that Mrs. Sullivan's
sickness was the direct result of the
sudden intelligence that her husband
was prisoner In France, charged with
completely in the alleged dynamite con-
Spiracy. This rumor was today de-
MED authoratively by Mr.. SuIlivan's
law partner, Edward j. McCardle. He
said there was absolutely no founda-
ton for the story of Mr.. Sullivan's ar
rest. So far as Mrs. Sullivan's illness
was concerned, that had an origin Of
its own, and was in no wise due to the
sensational story from New York Mr..
McCardle said positively that Mr. Sui
Ivan was a passenger on the steamer
Lain, which left Bremen yesterday
for New York, and which touched at
Southampton at o'clock this morning.
AT the office Of the North German
Lloyd Steamship company, it was
learned that Mr.. Sullivan had paid his
passage on the Lain, and had made all
his arrangements to sail today. Mr..
McCardle said Mr.. Sullivan went
abroad some two months ago for rest
and recreation. Much of the time he
put in at Carlsbad. He also visited
Vienna, Buda Pesth and made a short
trip to various notable points in central
Europe. Mr.. McCardle declared that
1t had no significance with any Irish
revolutionary movement
The condition of Mrs Sullivan was
reported as being slightly better today.
For the first time since suffering her
stroke Of apopIexy, she was able to.
recognize her friends and speak to
them, though very weak Doctors at
tending her stated that they had every
hope of her ultimate recovery.

We're deceptive. Hutchinson would have
gone in to pitch if the club were try
ing, but Wilmot sent Baker to the slab
and he was wild, besides always hav-
ing been rather easy for Detroit. Gayle
was hit effectively in two innings only,
while Baker was hammered in the
sixth and forced in a pair of runs in
the seventh. Hines and Pickett fieIded
very nicely, and Gayle made two fine
plays on first. Trost's double a sacri
flee and hit gave Detroit a starter
in the third. -Lally and Wilmot singled
IN the last half and Lally scored when
Wllmot stole. The Millers went into
the lead in the fourth on Pfckett's
nome run, and not until the sixth did
the Detrolt'S overtake them scoring
three runs on four hits and WiImot's
error in that inning. In the seventh
an error and two bases on balls filed
the bases and then Baker forced in a
pair. Manager Wilmot took the Free
