recton in the Mexican State of Tamau-
lipas. laughed heartily to-day when
the suggestion was made 10 him that
in the event Of an engagement hereabout
between rebels and accredited agents
Of the United States Government the lat
ter might preserve somewhat harshly the
neutrality Of this Government.
Two hundred and fifty armed men
will cross the river" he said candidly,
"to assist their brothers on the other
side in the fight for liberty.
And II American soldiers should try
to stop them?" he was asked.
"Oh. they might stop some he an
swered with a wave Of his hand. but
while soldiers were struggling with ten
a hundred would cross the river at the
fords They will not be stopped !
would feel sorry for the American soldiers

patriots with rifles in their hands.
