THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, THURSDAY, MARCH 13, NOT A FOOT OF SOIL Will the Mexican Government Yield to the United States. A POSSIBILITY OP RETALIATION If the Talk of Annexation is Persisted In by Americans. MR. BLAINE CONSOLES THE GEEASEES Washington, March 12. Senator Sher man to-day, in asking the Senate to dis charge the Committee on Foreign Relations from further consideration of, and to lay on the table, a memorial of the fifteenth Leg islative Assembly of the Territory of Ari zona, praying the President and Congress to enter into a negotiation with the Repub lic of Mexico for the cession of sufficient territory joining Arizona on the southern side to secure a water port upon the Gnlf of California, which would afford an outlet for the products of the Territory, laid before the Senate some Tery interestinr documents of a diplomatic character. Senator Sherman, as Chairman of the com mittee, referred the memorial to Secretary Blaine with a request for his opinion with re gard to It, and this Is the Secretary's reply: Blaise's ideas. "Itesnonding to your personal request for my Views in regard to this petition, I bee leave to say that I can discern no hopeful prospect of any negotiation beinj; successfully conducted with Mexico at the present time, even toward the limited object in view. The temper of the statesmen and people of Mexico has been only recentlv manifested with regard to the aliena tion of "any part of the national territory by the prominence civen in certain circles on the Pacific coast to a movement for the acquisition of all or a part of Low er California by purchases. "For the information of your committee. I transmit herewith a copy of a memorandum prepared bv the Mexican Minister of a conuer eatiou which he bad with me on this subject on the 6th of June last, together with Senor Mans cal's memorandum of May 20, 1SS9. of which Mr. Romero gave me a copy. 1 hold unhesitat ingly that tbe Got eminent of the United .States is precluded by obligations of traditional good faith Irom approaching the Government of Mexico with a view to acquiring any part of Mexican territory, and I equally believe that no administration of Mexico could face tne na tional sentiment that would certainly attend anv indication of a disposition to infnnge the provisions of the Mexican Constitution, w hich withholds from the Government the power to cede Mexican soil. KOI A CLEAK PROPOSITION. "Moreover, even did the subject promise a favorable negotiation, the petition fails to set forth the proposition in sufficient detail. The northern and eastern shore of the Gulf of Cali fornia does not appear to offer a deep water port nntil Libertad is reached, some 200 miles from the Delta of the Colorado, and the coun try between that coast and the present south ern limit of Arizona is broken, and appears in adapted to be a highway of intercourse. Guajamas and the faonora Railroad runrlng thence to Nogales constitutes the present channel or outlet from Arizona to the Gulf of California." The following is a translation of the memo randum which Senor ManscaU tbe Mexican Minister for Foreign Affairs, under date of May 20. 1Ss9. sent to benor Romero, the Mexi can Minister to the Tjnited States, and which the latter, under instructions, laid before Sec retary Blaine as stated in the secretary's letter to senator Sherman "This department (the Mexican Department of Foreign Affairs) approt ed the article,whicb, in compliance with its instructions, you wrota and published m the .Vortft American Jiiucv, entitled "The Annexation of Mexico,' because it is convinced that the total or partial acquisi tion of Mexican territory, whether by force or by means of intrigues, does not enter into the combination of tbe American statesmen, to whateier political party they may belong. co-ntidext of faibxess. "As to the gentlemen who at present form the United States Government, and direct its foreign policy, w e are sufficiently acquainted with their high character and political ante cedents not to entertain the least doubt about their sense of justice and fairness, not only on this point, bat any other subject. We have, therefore, complete belief that absurd plans of fillbusterism, which are fortunately looked upon by the enlightened majority of the Amer ican people as disreputable, will not be ap proved by them, nor that they will lend any support whatever to the mac hmation of badly informed persons with a view of changing tbe decided opposition of our people to any aliena tion of Mexican territory. "We do not attach much importance to the revelations, more or less vague, and afterward contradicted, which liav-. lately appeared in the American newspapers concerning organiza tions whose aim is to procure, at all hazards, tbe annexation of some part of Mexico, and especially ot liower California. But though we treat with contempt the boasts of idle and evil disposed people, who dream of wars of conquest, or of revolutionary movements plotted on our border, with a view of the an nexation of a part of our country, it is not so with other manifestations of a respectable source, though they may have their origin in opinions equally destitute of foundation. AS OrUECTIONABE MOVE. "I refer to a proposition originated in the Chamber of Commerce at Los Angeles, CaL, and presented to the House of Representative at Washington, authorizing the Executive to negotiate with Mexico for tbe purchase of Lower California. I refer, also, to tbe opinion which, without any reservation, the Governor ct California expressed about the great conve nience of Spanish acquisition, and above all the purchase of our States of Senora and Sina loa. about which no mention had before been made. No matter how much the Mexican Government might be inclined to overlook this double expression of an erroneous judgment as to our patriotic sentiments and our entire con 1 ormity with the opinion of our country in this regard, it cannot do so, considering the expres sion of views by the present officials of the State ot California, which is coterminous with our territory, and interested in some of those annexations. "Wc cannot look with indifference unon any thing coming from respectable authorities and it am one should tell us that no serious and well formed plans on the subject is entertained by them, butthat It Is rather the influence of com binations and exigencies of interior politics, which restrained them to express snch ideas, we should be worried, even though sharing in this belief, to deeply lament that there were persons in Calif ornia.with such misguided judg ments respecting u, who have influence enough to induce Governor Waterman to make public utterances, without thinking of the effect which they might afterward produce in the re lations with the neighboring nations. TCTAXIMOUS DISATTBOVAL. "You are aware that the Mexican Govern ment, in being alnays opposed to anything looking to the alienation of national territory, although it is disguised under the name of a friendly negotiation, does nothing more than reflect the opinion of the Mexican people, who are entirely unanimous on this point, without distinction of parties. On the other hand, oar political constitution does not authorize the pnblic power to make such an alienation: it could not be carried out in a constitutional manner, even supposing that the opinion of the Government and of the people of this republic were favorable to such a step. "It is wel. known that the administration of General Diaz has done all within its power to strengthen the iriendly relations between tbe two countries, by attracting tbe capital, the industry and the commerce of our neighbors, and by eraslnc even, the last niienrk. prejudices which might divide them. It will continue to do so. lully convinced that such is the best and tbe only rational policy between two peoples placed by nature alongside of each other, each needing, according to their present state of development, the elements which the other can furnish." POSSIBLE BETAilATIOS. But If in the midst of these efforts to secure & good and cordial understanding for their common benefit obstacles should arise, inter posed, perhaps, inconsiderately not by the Gov ernment of tbe United States, which, being so enlightened and favorably disposed toward our country, is incapable of such a thine, -but by btate officials of tbe same nation, in such a case, however disagreeable it might be to us and to a certain extent contrary to our inter national policy, we should be constrained to afford satisfaction to the Mexican peo ple, so sensitive in this matter, having shed Its blood and made immense sac rifices to achieve its independence and preserve the Integrity of its territory; we should find our States under the stern neces sity of adopting restrictive measures in regard to the acquisition by certain owners of real estate concessions, eta, as far as the engage ments already entered into constituting vested rights may allow. These steps might, however, be interpreted as showing a bad will on our part toward the American people, when we are. on the contrary, animated by exactly the op posite sentiments. In order, therefore, to avoid such an interpretation, under the Instructions of tbe President, I nave made the foregoing ex planation." The memorandum prepared by Minister Romero, of the conversation had with Mr. Blaine, on the occasion of the presentation of the communication of Senor Mariscal, after stating that at the Secretary's request the Sin ister left with him the Spanish text and the English translation of Senor Manscal's note, says: SO THOUGHT OF IT. "The Secrctarv of State then informed the Minister that his personal views and those ot the United States Government with respect to the annexation of Mexican territory were ex pressed in his note to Mr. Morgan, the United States Minister at Mexico, dated June 1, 1881, and which was published in the diplomatic cor respondence appended to the President's mes sage of that year, lie added that the United States Government did not think even remote ly of acquiring any portion of the Mexican ter ritory, and that it wou'd not support any pro ject having such an object in view, as the United Stales had all the territory that they required for their progress and welfare, and desired no more. . . "The Secretary of State further stated that tho United States Government conld not pre vent the newspapers or the citizens of this country from saying what thev pleaded on that or any other subject; but that, a regarded the acquisition of Mexican territory by the United States, he felt certain that the statementsmade were of no importance whatever, since public opinion did not favor further acquisitions, and that, even if any other administration should favor them he thought that it would meet with no support in the country for such a design. In conclusion the Secretary promised the Mexican Minister that he would replv in writing to the note of tbe Minister of Foreign Relations of Mexico, which had been read to him by the Minister of that Republic" .Sirocc I.nnaunge. From the Des Moines, Iowa, Mail and Tlraes.1 J. B. Loughran, ex-mayor of North Des Moines, and the Locust street manufacturer of steam engines and boilers, said recently to a Mail and Times reporter, "I havejust recovered from a severe attack of la grippe. I was laid up for three weeks. I used Chamberlain's congh remedy, and applied Chamberlain's pain balm to my breast These remedies were just the thing in my case. My child had crouu tome years ago, and we used Chamberlain's cough remedy with perfect success, since then we have never been without these medicines in our bouse. I had a cousin who was a printer and was employed in a job office in this city, where they were printing circulars for Chamberlain. He had a deep seated cold and a terrible cough, and while setting up the copy he made up bis mind to buy a bottle. It cured his cough, and that was the first time I ever knew anything of Chamberlain's remedies. I have been strong ly in their favor ever since. My own experi ence and that of my family convinces me that these remedies are the best in the world. That may be strong language, but it is what I think. For sale by E. G.

Persons troubled with rheumatism should read the following irom Mrs. N. M. Peters, of East Des Moines, la. She says: "I had suffered with rheumatism the greater part of the time for nearly seven years. At times I was almost helpless. I doctored a great deal for it with physicians and tried electric belts, patent medicines and almost every thing that is recommended for rheumatism. Finally a neighbor advised me to try Cham berlain's Pain Balm, and was so sure it would help me that I procured a bottle. It did help me, right from the start; but it took five 50 cent bottles to cure me, so you can guess how bad I was, as one or two bot tles will cure any ordinary case." For sale by E. G.
