UNCLE SAM PAYS FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS FOR THE WOUND.

Washington, April 15.-Failure of a
Mexican citizen to obtain satisfaction
from the authorities Of Cameron coun-
~, Texas, for personal injuries suffered
in that county evoked a serious COM
plant to the Washington government
from the Mexican government against
the Texas authorities and caused Sec
rotary Hay several months ago to offer
out of the federal treasury $500 to Mex
leo in satisfaction of its official claim
for damages The story is told in Off
cial correspondence published at the
state department today.
Eugolio ZambranO, a Mexican citizen,
paWned a rifle at Brownsville, Tex. be-
longing to a citizen of that town, was
arrested and while being carried to Jail
it is claimed he attempted to escape
and was shot at and wounded by PTi-
Vate Mckenzie Of the Texas Rangers
force. The Mexican consul reported
that Zambrano was tried and sentenced
without any account being taken by
the court of the wounds inflicted by
Mckenzie but the Judge passing SEN
tence on the prisoner told him that he
inflicted light punishment because he
had been wounded.
This statement in the opinion OF the
Mexican government. afforded ground
to insist that the wOunding was I'M
warranted. In a note to Secretary Hay
the Mexican ambassador at Washing
ton entered q formal complaint against
the Texas authorities on account 'of the
slight respect they usually evince for
the lives OF MeXicans residing on this
side of the border" and asked for an
indemnity in behalf Of ZambranO-
Secretary Hay. in his reply, said:
Il have the honor to say that the
department, after careful consideration
of all the circumstances, has reached
the conclusion that some compensation
should be made to ZambranO because
