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"

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.

A SO Cent Care for RhonmntWm.
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."
