Americans, English and Ger- mans are Abused
 By MexiCanS

Douglas, Ariz., Oct. Special. .)-
 Recently the Fl Paso Herald pub lished a story from Chihuahua of the failure of the decorating committee in that city to include the American flag in the decorations for the inde- pendence celebration, although flags of all other nations were in evidence, and now comes the story from Par ral of an anti-foreign outbreak in that city on the occasion of the recent celebration. The Parral Miner says:
 Beginning on the night of the 18th the peon class with some assistance from individuals who from their per sonal appearance could hardly be said to be peons, formed themselves into several mobs for the purpose of eel ebrating the national holiday, as was quite natural. Had they confined themselves to such celebration in decent and lawful manner everything would have been well, this, however, was not the case. It is upon such oc- casiOns that the deep dislike of the people for all foreigners comes to the surface. This year the expressions of hatred. the insults, the "gritos" with which foreigners were saluted on the 18th and 10th were strengthened by such acts of lawlessness as are not usual in these days of enlighten- ment in civilized countries. The ruff fianly mobs circulated around town apparently hunting up all the foreign CTS they could find, stopping them in the streets and insulting them most atrociously, not even treating the la dies with any more courtesy than they showed the men. Lacking vic tins in the streets the mobs content ed themselves with throwing stones through the windows of various house occupied by foreigners, and tearing down the decorations which they had placed upon their buildings in honor of this great national day. Those foreigners who were unlucky enough to be caught on the streets and threatened with death to the Americans, death to the foreigners" and insulted with the worst kind of gutter snipe" language, are too nu- merous to give a list of Many for eigners fearing that something of this stayed at home, and only had to bear with the cries of the mobs that oc- casionally paid them a visit. A repe- tition of this sort of thing will not be conducive of the most cordial rela- tions between Mexicans and foreign CTS.
 It is claimed by the authorities that this outbreak was entirely unexpected by them, and that therefore the po- lice force was insufficient They ex- press great regret that anything of this kind should have occurred and they are making every endeavor to locate the various leaders of the mobs and have guaranteed that nothing of the kind should occur again.
 meeting of the principal members of the German, French, Spanish, Eng fish and American colonies was held American consular agent, and it was decided to put the matter entirely in MT. Loug's hands for settlement, as he is the only representative of for eign government in Parral. It is ex- pected that strenuous steps will be taken to apprehend and convict the ring leaders of the outrage. Commenting on the disturbances Francisco A. Salinas, a leading citi- zen of Parral, says in the Parral La l Nueva Era: We can only depiore the fact that 1 our lower class, guided by the blind l influence of tradition, not knowing l how to give expression to their en- thusiasm during these two nights, and l being under the influence of liquor, should have committed unjustif
