Chicago, Sept. 2G.A dispatch ro-
telved last night from the City of
Mexico srvb: President Diaz cannot
go to Chicago, on account ot tho ill
ness of his wlfo. He has appointed
Ignnclo MarUcal, minister of foreign
relations, to go as his representative.
Another City or Mexico aispaicn
says: President Uiar toaay exprosseu
deep regret that he must forego tho
pleasure of the trip wnisn no nau
looked forward to with koen desire.
He had hoped to meet the leading men
of the neighboring republic and felt
that the occasion would be of much
benellt to both countries. Whllo tno
Illness ot Mmo. Diaz has all along
placed a degree of uncertainty about
the plans of the president for his
northern Journey. It was Hoped until
yesterday that her condition might Im
prove sufficiently to allow president
DIaE to be absent. Bo strong was this
expectation that yesterday the senate
again look up the matter of the pro
posed visit ana increased me amount
ot tho appropriation for the expenses
of the president and his party to 1E0,-
000. The former appropriation was
$100,000. It was shortly after this ac
tion that the announcement of the
change in President Dlan's plans was
announced.
The dlBnatches have causod greatdls-
appolntment to the committee appoint
ed to welcome President Diaz, and to
the citizens generally. The most elab
orate preparations had been made to
make the Mexican president's recep
tion a' moat notable one, arrangements
having been perfected to have him mot
at the border of each state through
which his train passed by the governor
of that state, who would then act as
one of President Diaz's esoorts to Chi
cago. It Is supposed the same cour
tesies will be extended to Minister
Martscal, but tho absence of President
Diaz himself win put a damper on the
festivities.

London, Sept. 20. The oillclnls of
.he foreign odlco last evening gave out
he text of the letter of the secretary
3f state for tho colonies, Mr. Clmm
jcrlaln, to the Drltlsh high commls
iloner, Sir Alfred Mllner, dated Sept.
22. The DrltlBh reply expresses ro-
rret that her majesty's olfor No. 6,
Df Sept. 8, had been refused, and says:
"The object her majesty's govern
ment had in vlow in the recent negotia
tions has been stated in a manner
which catinot admit of misapprehen
sion, viz., to obtain such substantial
and Immediate representation for the
outlnndera na will enable them to se
cure for themselves that fair and just
treatment which was formally prom
ised them In 1881, and which her ma
jesty Intended to secure for tham when
she granted privileges of self govern
ment to tho Transvaal. No conditions
less comprehensive than those con
tained In the telegram of Sept. 8 can
be relied on to effect this object. Tho
refusal of the South African govern
ment to entertain the offer thus mado,
coming as tt does after four months
of protracted negotiations, themselves
the climax of five years ot extended
agitation, makes It useless to further
pursue the discussion on tho lines
hitherto followed, and the tmporlal
government Is now compelled to con
sider tho situntlon afresh and formu
lato its own proposals for n final Bat
tlement of the Issues which have been
created in South Africa by the policy
constantly followed for many years by
the government or South Africa. They
will communicate the result of their
deliberations In a lator dispatch."
In a Inter communication, dated
Sept. 22, tho Imperial government
takes up tho charge of breach of faith
