Washington, April 15-Failure OF
Mexican citizen to obtain satisfac-
ton from the authorities of Cameron

suffered in that county, evoked a seri-
Gus Complaint tc the Washington gov
ernment from the Mexican govern
ment against the Texas authorities.
and caused Secretary Hay several
months ago to offer out OF the federal
treasury $500 to Mexico in satisfaction
of its official claim for damages.
The story is told in official CORE
spondence Published at the state de-
partment today. Eugolo Zubrano, a
Mexican citizen, pawned a rifle at
Brownsville, Tex, belonging to a citi
zen OF that town who was arrested,
and while being carried to jail it is
alleged he attempted to escape and
was shot at and wounded by private
Mckenzie, of the Texas Ranger force
The Mexican consul reported tha
Zambrano was tried and sentenced
without any account being taken by
the court of the wounds inflicted by
Mckenzie, but the judge in passing
sentence on the prisoner told him that
he inflicted light punishment because
he had been wounded. This statement
in the opinion of the Mexican govern
ment, afforded ground to assert that
the WOunding was unWarranted. In
a note to Secretary Hay, the Mexican
ambassador at Washington entered a
formal complaint against the Texas
authorities on account of the slight re-
spect they usually evince for the lives
and interests of Mexicans residing on
this side of the border, and asked for
indemnity in behalf of Zambrano
Secretary Hay, in his reply, said:
Il have the honor to say that the de-
partment after careful consideration
of all the circumstances has reached
the conclusion that some compensa-
tion should be made to Zambrano be-
cause of the failure of the authorities
OF Cameron, Tex, to try and punish
Ranger Mckenzie for unlawfully shoot
ing him, and it is willing to make pay
ment to you on behalf of Zabrano of
the sum of $500 in full settlements of
the matter"
This offer was accepted by the Mex
lean government, and the incident was
closed.
