MEXICO'S NEW GENERAL
The Country is Rejoicing Over British
 Reverses

City of Mexico, February 16.-Mnister of the Interior Gonzales Casico has been pro- noted to the rank of full brigadier general fin token of his long and meritous military record.
 Fl Correo Espanol rejoces over the Brit ish reverses in South Africa, holding that England favored the United States, which 1t calls "another bandit nation," in the Cu- ban war, and by preventing the Spanish heet from coaling, ruined Spain's chance of disconcerting the Americans by making a; naval demonstration on their Atlantic coast where the people were in state of panic. Therefore Spain hates England and allows the Boers to get supplies from that country.
 The Hay-Pauncefote treaty is much dis cussed and the naturalization of the isth- milan canal is approved by public opinion here. The Mexican Herald says:
 l"When the canal Is completed it will probably be found that the largest customer will be England, but with the growth of American commerce the canal will come to be most useful to the United States. The shortest route for England from Pacific points is the Suez canal. while the Nica- r&gua canal will put the Atlantic and Gulf ports of the United States in very direct connection with the far east. The outcry against the treaty has little real cause. The United States is already a mighty na- tion-the richest in the world by statistical authority. The coming American navy will be powerful and amply able to hold it's own against that of any power-able fully to protect American coasts and American commerce. We have too firm a confidence in the future of the United States to re- gard the naturalization of the great inter oceanic waterway as perilous to American interests"

OUR RETREAT FROM CHINA.
Movement Criticised UT Tientsin by Ameri.
cans and British Alike.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
Tentsin. Oct. 7.-As cabled at the time
the American residents in Tientsin met at
the announcement of the withdrawal OF
the larger part of the United States forces
and adopted resolutions protesting against
such action. The sentiment of the Eng
lish here is expressed I'm an article in To-
cal paper, which has resumed publication
The article in question attaches much i'm
portance to the probable effect the Amer
lean action will have among the Chinese,
and says:
''The reason for the withdrawal is per-
fectly understood, and allowance is ap-
parently made in consequence by the pow
ers But the point which appealed most
strongly to American traders and mission
aries here is not what the powers will
think, but what China Will think"
1t is then pointed out that the masses sf
the people are led to believe that the
Americans were afraid of the conse-
quences of remaining in China. ContinU-
ing, the editorial says:
Americas action must inevitably bear
an enormous crop of miscOnstruction by
which all will suffer and not the least she
herself. The apparent leniency will rot
enhance her prestige in China's eyes,
while we should say il would tend TO
limit her votes in the councils of nations
in Pekin."
