RIO GRANDE IRRIGATION.
The Dispute Pending With the
Mexican Government.

CHICAGO. Dec. Ga special to the
Chicago Record" from the City of
Mexico says:
Judge Marsden C. Burch of Grand
Rapids. Mich, arrived in the City of
Mexico to-day. He comes as special
counsel for the Department of Justice
at Washington on an errand relating to
the Rio Grande Valley irrigation dis
pute, the only point of disagreement
between the United States and Mexi-
co. the latter country having filed a
claim for S20,O0O,0O0 damages The
normal flow of the Rio Grande for cen
turtles has been sufficient for the peo-
pie on. both sides adjoining. During
the last few years the irrigation of
Colorado and New Mexico has con-
sumed so much from the headwaters
that the stream along the international
boundary has been lowered proportion
ately. Above. and below Ell Paso the
ancient irrigation bitches are now dry
and fertile fields and orchards are a
waste. This is the basis of the claim
of Mexico
The American Government has en-
deavored to arrange the question on its
equities. During President Cleveland's
administration an English syndicate
started to dam the river at Elephant
Butte, 125 miles above Ell Paso, and
thus to control water for irrigation. The
syndicate offered to sell the water thus
impounded in its reservoir to farmers
for 200 miles down the valley On the
American side. The Mexican Govern
ment claimed the scheme was a viola
Of ha del
injunction was filed on the British COM
pany on behalf of both countries
Meantime. at the suggestion of General
Arson Mills, negotiations were COM
menced for the building of an inter-
national dam near Ell Paso, whereby
the ancient water rights might be
equitably restored. The English COM
pany fought the Government scheme.
The injunction obtained was dissolved
by the territorial courts of New Mex
leo, but the Supreme Court of the
United States reversed the decision and
the case was reopened before the court
at Las Cruces in the governmental de-
Tense.
The Rio Grande is c1assed as a navi-
gable stream, and the claim is made
that the English dam would impair
the usefulness of the river. Judge
Burch is here to obtain proof on this
head and will appear for the United
States at the Las Cruces court on De-
cember 10Th.

negotiations will be further conducted
in friendly spirit to a good end"
4 Herr Barth, in the Nation" will say:
The most important thing in the mess
age for the economic interests of the
world is the proposition to put the
United States more squarely on the
gold standard. It is the last kick OF
bimetallism.'
The National Zeitung" says: "Presi-
dent McKinley's words in referring to
Germany plainly. show a favorable re-
vulsion of sentiment toward us. In
Germany the friendly words of the
American President will be appreci-
ated at their full value Germany also
earnestly desires to maintain the best
relations with the United States ann
the full loyalty and friendship in eco
nomically competing"
& The "Boersen Zeitung," one of lAe
financial papers, expresses qualification
at President McKinley's reference to
the currency question.
FRENCH PRESS COMMENT.
PARIS, Dec. 6.-The Temps says it
finds want of decision in President
McKinley's message to Congress which
must be disconcerting for the country.
which needs an unequivocal, firm
statement
referring to the paragraph on for
elgn affairs, the Temps says:
After Mr.. Chamberlain, it was Presi-
dent McKinley's turn, and he has
shown himself tactful He speaks
warmly of friendship, but does not
breathe a word of alliances. These are
shades of language which say much for
the fragility of the ties of sentiment
between the two countries. His allusion
to the failure to reach an agreement
with Canada is very clear Alliances
may be talked of, but a difference of
secondary Importance cannot be set
tied amicably.
Referring to South Africa, President
Mckinley held the balance level be-
tween the two belligerents and even
inflicted on Mr.. Chamberlain and the
pretentious imperialists the cruel word
mediation
In short, the message will little
please the noisy champions of alliance,
which it ignores, while it will give sat
isfaction to all wise friends of a good
understanding between the two great
Anglo-Saxon nations"
The "Liberte" says: 1--WE cannot but
congratulate ourselves on the good
feeling shown toward us by President
Mckinley. France is always ready TIC
promote commerce and industry be-
tween the two republics
