Washihgton.-No official report Of
the clash between the Texas Rangers
and the Mexicans near Rio Grande
City has reached Washington, and
the ofiieiak are scarcely expecting
that there Hill be a report unless the
matter is tade the subject Of diplo-
matte representations by the Mexican
government and so far as the Mexi-
can embassy here has been advised
of any such purpose.
Troops an near the scene Of the
trouble, four commands of the Twen-
sy-iifth lnfsntry being at Fort Me-
tosh, little more than fifty miles
distant, and three troops Of the First
Cavalry at Fort Clark.
In explanation of the statement
that the Mexicans were incensed over
being excluded from voting last Tues
day, il is said by army officers that
II has in the past been common
practice to bring Mexicans oves the
line and vote them in Texas when fac
tional issues were being strongly
contested. and it is conjectured that
the Mexicans resented being depriv-
ed Of the money they earned in tina.

The Political situation is no worse

men rao Inspired them have never

cerning The situation tia, now exists.
The coniro. OF the Mexican vote =
the matter at issue. 1, is purchase
bic IN part. cnntrollable in part. and
the rest ct !, can be scared into obey
ing instructions. The present cam
paign has been the most heated IN
years. and there has been open threats
of murder IN many eases. So open
were these threats tSat Judge Wclch
remained here after court had adj
jovrned because he believed that his
presence was necessary 10 any sort
of fairness IN the election. He was
the victim of a Mexican bravo, IN all
probability who had been hired to do
the deed. Or who had been innamcd
into the belief that his political and
financial nights were TO be imposed
upon.
On election day there was great cN-
element Many men had not gone
home during the night, and there had
bcen much drinking and armed men
were all nboat the streets. When the
news of tho assassination of Judge
Wclch became public there was a
pause for moment, then armed men
We're everywhere IN evidence. There
was an agreemsni that the men with
six-shooier would stay away from
the courthouse. where the polls were
established; and that every man who
desired should be permitted to vote.
Democratic Chairman Seabury ami
Republican Chairman Jose Pima had
come to tbs understanding. and -
far a. they were able they enforced
it. but as they were kept closely about
the polls. hey could not control the
situation outside the courthouse
Many votes were prevented by
threats ani acts of violence from
going 30 tie polls, and all these
were Democrats. The Republican
faction cared off the election on the
face of the rcturns by about one hun
dred majority.
The order Of Ranger McDonal,
that all should disarm is not beinl
obeyed. Tie guns are no longer II
the open. The pon-combatants arr
staying at home. They are not al
together safe there. but they woul.
be IN actual jeopardy if they wer'
