RELICS OF MAMMALIAN.
Mexican Owns the Military Sash and
Gold Watch of the Emperor,

OoIu watch of the Emperor.
Correspondence The New York Times.
Mexico City, March 1.-TWO notable his
torical articles were brought to light by
the visit of Ignace Paderewski to this
city The coming of the noted pianist
had been heralded through the country
the trip locked in 10 the two recitals
given in Ell Teatro Nacional Among
the visitors was pianist of merit named
I1burcio Saucedo from the state of Jalis-
CO. and he brought with him the two ar
ticles which have revived memories of
Maximilian the unfortunate brother of
the Emperor of Austria.
One of the relics is the Generals sash
which the Archduke wore with his full
uniform as military commander, and the
other the watch which he personally plac-
ed in the hands of the officer who COM
manded the platoon, whose office it was to
end the early career of the three-Mexia
Miramon and Maximilian-on the Hill of
the Bells, near Queretaro. Some writer's
have claimed that the watch was not a
personal gift, but a trust, as the Emperor
wished it sent to his family
The story of the present owner, as told
by himself, and apparently well sustained
by authentic documents, is interesting to
many on both sides of the Atlantic The
ends finished with large tassels of gold
and bugles, also of gold, and a heavy
fringe of red silk.
After the City of Queretaro was taken
by the Patriot or Liberal army the sash
fell into the hands of Simon Gutierrez, a
guerrilla, who sometimes wore it with
great ostentation on gala days Gutierrez
sold it in the town of Ameca, in the state
of Jalisco, to Senior Jesu Rodriguez, who
kept it for some years. When he died
his relatives sold it for a neat little sum
TO the present owner, who, having the
tastes of a collector, has enough relics of
various kinds to form a little museum of
his own.
The documents which he presents as
evidence of the authenticity of the sash
are in the shape of certifcates-one from
a Swiss named Van Deck, who belonged
to Carlota's Guard of Honor as a ser
geant, and testified that he had many
times seen the said sash CROSSED about
the waist of the Archdique Macmillan,
when he wore his uniform of a general"

duchess Sofia is represented seated on
a throne in the act of blessing a boy

represented Macmillan himself at about
fourteen years Of age.
The history Of the watch as given, Is
that a short time after the execution of
Macmillan an unknown man appeared
at a pawnshop called the NOME Ne

Guadalajara. asking that a certain
amount of money be loaned on the watch
