THERE IS NO REVOLUTION
SAYS j. c. Corwin. a Prominent Mining
Man of Guanaiuato, Mexico,
Now in Dallas, Texas.

Dallas July 2-That the revolution
in Mexico is not revolution at all ana
that the reports of uprisings there are
greatly exaggerated is the statement Of
j. c. Corwin, prominent mining man
of Guanajuato, Mexico. who is now in
Dallas. Mr.. Corwin has extensive inter-
ests In Mexico and since the first ru-
mors of the strife beyond the Rio
Grande, he has been in communication
by wire with his representatives in the
republic.
II am able to state" said Mr. Cor
win last night. that this so-called
revolution is nothing more or less than
a sortie on the part of organized bands
of robbers and desperadoes who are
covering up their crookedness under
the guise OF politics and are pretending
a patriotic movement,
THESE revolutions occur periodically.
They are melted by a few former
Mexicans, who now are residents of the
United States. They formerly made
their headquarters at st. Louis, but
were run out of there. There are men
who could not go back to Mexico,
Just as there are men In Mexico today,
former Americans, who would not ven
ture to set foot on this side of the Rio
Grande.
These men stir up trouble through
their agents in Mexico. Their agents
represent the ignorant classes that they
can pillage and rob under the guisc
of patriotism, standing certain show
of escaping capture or of coming clear
in case they are taken into custody.
This is another of these deep laid plans
to pillage.
II have had advices today that alb
solutely convinces me that there Is
no fighting more than so miles the
other side of the border The report of
trouble in Torreon is unfounded. Tie
report that a bridge had been burned
in Torreon, and that a train had been
backed up for fear of running into q
band of revolutionists is untrue. Tho
revolutionary element in Mexico is rs
powerless to get control of the govern
ment as the black hand are powerless
to get control of the government of lhs
United States. They kill occasionally.
and pillage, but that is all. The re-
ports received by the newspapers are
exaggerated"

the failure of the California limited to

Denver, July 2.--F'resh from his visit

Mr.. Towne said he discussed at length
with Mr.. Bryan the various planks of
the platform and particularly that bear
ing on the subject of the issuance OF
writs of Injunction by federal judges in
labor cases.
ION that proposition" said Mr.
Towne. you can emphatically state
ambiguity. The anti-injunction plank
will be- so framed as TO meet with favor
from large majority of the working
men of the country"
PHILIPPINE ISLANDS.
Another plank which in all probabn-
ity will be Incorporated in the platform
and which was discussed at length with
Mr. Bryan, will embody the proposition
nf N international nputru liza tiOn Of
the Philippine islands.
1.-THE belief was entertained" said
Mr. Towne, that such a policy would
result in avoiding the necessity for
tremendous military defensive eNpens-
| es and give an assurance of the de-
velopment of those islands under OUR
! guidance toward proXimate indepen-
| dence. Furthermore II Is likely that
| there will be a distinct pronounce
| ment that a permanent system of de-
Tendencies in out of harmony with our
institutions and that the discharge of
the duties that have come to us with
the Philippines as result of the
Spanish war VIII not be permitted to
defect US permanently from the
course of our true national progress
That, he said, was in harmony with
MIR. Bryan's own views.

INDUCED in relative to the attitude of
