the destruction OF railway property was
adopted as a part of the rebels plan of
campaign on the advice Of American
flibusters. whose expectation was that
by interrupting communication by rail-
to the consequent injury Of various In

foreign capita! and jeopardizing the
safety Of travellers from abroad, the
United States and Mexican governments
would become embroiled. 10 the result
ant advantage of the revolutionists. The
effect, however, will be opposite to that
anticipated.
II must now be plain to the rebels that
they can look for neither aid nor COM
fort from the United states. With the
sources Of supplies north of the Rio
Grande cut off; With certain death
awaiting them II captured; with no CO.
hesive and harmonious military organi-
cation; with leaders at odds. and the
withdrawal of sympathy by citizens who
have grown tired Of being compelled to
feed them and provide enforced loans
Of money. nothing can be fairly fore
seen except disaster TO the Maderist
cause
BUSINESS conditions in the North have
been so gravely disturbed by the insur-
rection that substantial citizens are
heartily out OF conceit with the reoels
and their propaganda. The most des-
perate of the rebels are expected soon to
take 10 the mountains, and there make a
final stand, as the Beers did against the
British. It will, however, be only ques-
ton Of time when they will be hunted
down.
