MATAMO
MOVING OVER
WILL NOW MAKE PERMANENT
THE TEMPORARY RESIDENCE
OF LAST FOUR WEEKS As con
DITIONS ARE NOT BETTERED
IN CITY.
STAGNATION PREVENTS THE
HOOD s OTHAT FOR PRESENT
MATAMOROS Is NOT DESIRABLE
PLACE TO LIVE.

Brownsville owes the acquisition Of q
great many\of her older families to the
Macmillan war in GG They came then
\ to the land of freedom to escape the af
ter effects of a war. They are now com
/ ing into this country to escape just such
like calamity and Brownsville and
/ the Lower Rio Grande Valley will re
"eive many of tn" best families Of Tam
| aulipas as reSidcnters for some time
to come, even if they do not finally make
this their permanent home.
When the refugees, who were non-com-
batants and who had been in Browns
Vile from three days 10 three weeks. ac-
cording to the time they fled the rumors
and the actualities OF battle, had received
word that they could now 60 back to
their homes and take up their occupa
tons and attend to their business with
out mOlcStatiOn and under the full guar.
antees of the victors many of them went
back to their own fircside only to find
that matters were even worse than they
were before the battle. No work, no
business, nothing doing. No way to make
living, nothing TO live on. \ complete
closing Of every avenue of trade and
every form Of industry. Men being ta-
ken up at anv and all times with slight
assurance that they would be left en-
tirely free from the searching demands
Of the victor Men were still being eX
read by. no water TO drink. no mechant
20 sell to cooks to cook. no labrers to
work. Industry and activity i'll every
line absolutely suspended They could
not stay in this city of dcs0lation longer
so they got permission 70 come back to
the land Of Uncle sam. All during the
day Saturday loads of household goods
were being brought 10 Brownsville. from
The furnishings of the simple home of
Matamoros that could be carried in one
small cart load To the furnishings Of
the best homes of Matamoros which took
many loads to convey across.
They went over again just for Il day
and then they come To Il new country
bringing their all with them.
This may mean u residence of only a
few months still many of them may be
forced 10 stay so long on this side that
they may take root just rs the cXpatri-
ates of &c. and this next census may be
materially increased. To get a rent
house in Brownsville is now amattcr of
difficulty which will have to be remedied
1uicklv BY the erection of houses for at
the rate the household goods is being
brought over every vacant house will be
requisitiOncd.
