with the inauguration Of the stand,

words of the St. Louis Globe-Dem
ocrat as quoted recently by TIKI
HERALD. It speaks as follows:
In connection with this joy
full news we are sorry to record
that the BROWNSVILLE DAILY HER
AID, in its number of day before
Yesterday, gives an official commu
nication of the ST. Louis Globe
Democrat announcing that the St
Louis, Brownsville & Mexico Rail
way will connect with the Natioua
of Mexico at Fordyce, Texas, thai
is at San Miguel.
That telegram comes to resurrect
the noise about the international
bridge whose construction was ru-
mored not long ago, and agalns'
which we protested, since it would
doubtlessly leave Matamoros re-
duced to its local traffic.
The President of the Republic.

that they knew nothing about it.
