-_ NEW YORK HERALD. SUNDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1877—QUINTUPLE SHEET. | BORDER REBELLION, El Paso County, Texas, in the Hands of a Mexican Mob. A MASSACRE IMMINENT. ‘Four Hundred Armed Greasers Crying “Death to the Gringos.” [Bx TeLzGRarH To THE HERALD. ] SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Oct. 6, 1877, Intelligence of a startling Mexican uprising in the northwest of this State has just been received here trom Fort Stockton, the news having reached that post by mail this morning. The scene of the troubie is El Paso, a large, but for the most part barren county, which is almost *ntirely inhabited by Mexicans, It is nearly ten shousand square miles in extent, but only sustains ® population of about four thoxsund souls, of which bne-tenth are colored and not half a hundred Eng- ish speaking Americans, A WILD COUNTRY. The inhabitants of the county are nearly all Settled along the narrow valley of the Rio Grande, which forms its western boundary. This is almost the only arable portion of the county, the remain- fer consisting of sandy plains, without water or Umber, crossed by ranges of mountains, In the northwest there are expanses of salty marshes and lakes, which, a8 will be seen hereafter, have some- thing to do with the trouble, ORIGIN OF THE TROUBLE. Along the Rio Grande Valley are, as has been Hoted, the principal settlements, and between these and the Mexican town of El Paso there is continual intercourse, and the sentiment of the in- habitants is strongiy pro-Mexican and bitterly hostile to American whites. For some time past there has been @ feud in the county betweena party led by Judge Charlies H. Howard and one led by @ mail contractor named Louis Cardis. ‘The former is married to the daughter of a man named Zimpelman, who has™logated claims on several of the salt lakes where, up toa short time ago, the Mexicans used to procure their salt tree of tharge. Of late Howard has insisted that all sait taken must be paid for. THE OUTBREAK. A very bitter state of feeling was the result, and culminated in an open quarrel in the town of San Elizario between Cardis and Howard. The Sheriff Was called in to prevent bloodshed, but, the quar- rel once started, it was impossible to preserve the Peace, The Mexicans rose en masse and seized the town, flung Judge Howard into the jail and bound him hand and foot with ropes. “DEATH TO THE GRINGOS,” This done they paraded the streets shouting “Death to the Grinugos” and. “Viva la Mejico.” Soon alter they captured some other officials, in- cluding Judge McBride, and lodged them in jail. ANOTHER TOWN CAPTURED. The town of Isletta was also visited by @ band of urmed Mexicans and the oliicials driven out or captured. THIRTY AMERICANS IN DANGER. A most excited feeling prevails and the gravest sears are entertained for the lives ot Mr. Howard &nd the other Americans, about thirty In number, who are at the mercy of the infuriated Mexican mob, A single shot might bring avout a horrible massacre. It is stated that there are 400 Mexicans in arms, and their leaders boast that they have all the assistance they need from the other side ofthe river, There are no United States troops near the Scene Of this little rebellion. INCOMMUNICADO. At military headquarters substantially the same account is given of the origin of the disturbance. ‘The rebellious Mexicans have thrown out scouts and pickets around the towns named and along the river. No American is allowed to communicate with the prisoners. TROOPS 70 BE SENT. A call has been made from El Paso for troops and \t is probable that Colonel Hatch will be sent there, The call 1s 1or two companies, with artillery. A CURIOUS THEORY. Another theory of the trouble is that it was Btarted by Louis Cardis, whois the mortal enemy of Judge Howard, and who wants troops sent to Fy Paso to protect the mail, of which he is the sub- contractor. MEXICO NOT TO BLAME. This outrage cannot be laid to the charge of Mexico, as the Mexicans complained of are Ameri- can citizens living on this side of the river, who feel themselves aggrieved by the conduct of Judge Howard, and who are urged on their lawless course by his rival, Cardi, These points are gleaned from the official correspondence, MOB Law, At the time Howard was seized by the mob he was in the hands of the Sherlit for attemptifig to kill Cardis, EXCITEMENT IN NEW ORLEANS, [BY TELEGRAPH To THE HERALD,] NeW ORLEANS, Oct. 6, 1877, A despatch has just reached here (11:15 P. M.), via Galveston, fromjFort Davis, which states that a Mext- can mob over four bundred strong have taken pos- session of the towns of San Elizario and Isletto, in Texas, arrested the officials, and are parading the streets, shouting “Death to Americans,” with cheers for Mexico. The officers of the county, El Paso, are also in the hands of the mob, There are no troops in the neighborhood, and fears are enter+ tained of a general massacre, TUE NEWS IN NEW ORLEANS. The news here creates the greatest excitement and the utmost bitterness prevails. Offers will ve made at once of volunteers to protect the frontier, and, if necessary, invade Mexico, The officers of the first Louisiana infantry, of which an ex-Con- Jederate officer Is in command, express themselves as ready to go on the shortest notice. The affair is denounced here as owing to the feeble policy of the general government. New Orleans merchants are interested to @ considerable degree in peace on the frontier. GENERAL SHERIDAN'S VERSION OF THE AF- FAIR—TROOPS ON THE WAY TO INVESTIGATE AND SUPPRESS THE RIOT. [BY TELEGRAPH To THE HERALD.) CHICAGO, Oct. 6, 1877. The report having reached here this evening from Fort Davis, Texas, that there bad been an | we invasion of American soll by Mexicans, followed by the capture of two towns, a representative of the Hemaxp called on General Sieridan at his residence to ascertain what intelligence had been received at Army Headquarters on the subject. t WUAT GENERAL SHERIDAN Says. ‘The General said he had the very latest informa- tion, and was in a position to deny everything which jointed to any armed conflict or an inva sion, his report, he said, was wholly incorrect and had no shadow of truth, except in one particu- jar. He then went on to make this statement:— “There had been at the town of Santo Elizario some trouble for Some time past between citizens regarding some salt springs or @ salt lake, he was not certain which. These troubles had nally broken out tn a sort of mob violence, the citizens only participating. The parties were wholly Mexican, the town being populated almost wholly by this element. Civi: officers had been Sent from El Paso, twenty-five miles distant, for the purpose of making some arrests, which had been done. This was the whole extent of the so- called invasion. TROOPS LN MOTION, General Sheridan at once ordered Lieutenant Rucker, with twenty-five or thirty soldiers, to pro- ceed at once to Santo Elizario trom El Paso and investigate the trouble, and that oficer has de- parted for the scene, This, says General Sheridan, isall there isin the rumor. It was confined en- tirely to a brawlamong the Mexicans themselves over the Salt Springs.

THE RETURNING ROARD TRIALS THREATEN TO BRING BACK THK STRIFE OF FACTIONS, (Bx TELEGRAPA 10 THE HERALD, ) New Onuxans, Oct. 6, 1877. From statements made to-day it would appear that ‘the approach of the Returning Board trials nas caused bitter disturbance to break out among the contending politicians in the State, aud it ts boldly alleged that the President cannot carry out nis civil service policy owing to the power of the Keturning Board officials, From rehable sources it has been given out that the oxpenses of the defendants would be paid in Washington; that Shell- bucker and Wilson had been employed there, and that the whole line of defence was prepared by certain pa Ues connected with the government there. Lo this spo- clul cure bas been taken to direct attention from the Presidential title, and every effort will bo made to keep the electoral question out, A leading con+ rvative lawyer, who n be considered Speaking ‘fur tho State goverument bere, id to-duy to the HxkkaLD correspondent that the State might be willing to drop the electoral mate ter and inquire into thw State returns, which wore promulgated also tur Packard, The tourbons are in favor of this, for the reason that Packard received more votes than the Hayes electors, and if the Ke- turning Bourd ure guilty of fraud im counting the vote tor Governor they were douvly 80 on the Presidential count, and if Packard bad no title under the returns neither bus Hayes, Packard, 1t is suid, will bimselt svcretly aid this mode of presenting the question, as it will indisputably put betore the country what ho calls the desertion of bimsell. ‘THE COLLECTORSUIP, ‘The method to be pursueu relative to tho Collector- ship, as givon out by Genoral Anderson, 1s that King, being mentally and puysicaily incompetent, uls pane will not be sent in by the President, or if wo, 1 will not be copfirnied, and he, as chief deputy, will be Collector’ ex officio. In this event ho. romises, to take cure of the numer. ous dupefvibdts and commissioners of election wo it has Deen feurod would peach, otherwiso, aud thus they will be kept quiet unt after the ‘trial The Graud Jury which bus been drawn is composed almost entirely of leading inerchaats, about evenly divided in politics, but with @ wligut Bourbon dewocruiic pre- ponderance. As the mercantile community have been greatly outraged at the eval of Cum. pho, Deputy Collector, who w every way competes, and tho placing of Anderson in his place, they will doubtless seo full justice dono tim. The Kellogg-Packurd crowd state that iu case Anderson ot ul, are found guilty even the President will not daro keep them 19 power, abd they will be sent out of tho country, While Packard will ussume the role of Col- lector. all of these matiers have provoked a# bitter- ness among opposing clewents, which, as the caso pYogresses, threatens a lively contest, MANNING CONTRADICTS TWEED, THE TESTIMONY OF THE BOSS SQUARELY ANSWERED BY A DENIAL ON BEHALF OF TLE ALBANY ANGUS. Auuaxy, N. ¥., Oct, 6, 1877. Mr. Daniel Manning turuishes the following tor pub- licatiou:—I notice tn to-day’s New York despatches that Mr, Tweed, before the New York alder manic committee, states that he paid tho ‘Argus Company, m January, 1871, $4,000 by check, which check was indorsed ‘William Cassidy, president; Daniel Manning, secretary.” The newspaper report does not show for whut ho pretends to have made this payment, cr what connection it has with any public business of public money. [ ropeat most solomaly und emphatically what was sald im substance in our issue last woek that neither the Argus Company nor any one for the Argus Company ever received in any way, directly or indirectly, a check for $4,000 nor tor any otber sum from Mr. Tweed or from any one representing him, 1 never applied to Mr. weed for money, nor never bad any negotiation with hin on the subject of money or mutual favors. I was in the session of 1871 a reporter fur the Argus in the Senate, I was outirely @ private person. 1 had no oficial position to sell or olficial trust to betray to Mr. Twoed or uny ove else if I wero so inclined. ‘There was not only nothing I ever did do, but nothing I could do, or was asked to do, for which Mr. Tweed would pay $4,000 of 4,000 conte, As course of the Argus ‘upow public connected with New York city In 1871 its files aro open and speak for themselyes, Not a word ever appeared in it which was brought or influcnced vy Mr. Tweed or any one jn bis veball, I remember at one time in that winter, while the Senate was in session, that Mr. Twoed come to me and asked at what baok we did our banking bu: hess, suying he wished to get sume money on hw check, 1 replhed, “The Commerciat Bank,'’ whereupon he asked me to indorse his chock for identitication, as he was not known atthe bunk. accordingly, without even looking at the lace uf tho check, indorsed it with the usual corporate Argus compuny indorsement, and immediately banded it buck to him and bave never seen it since, nor any of 16 proceeds, That chock was never deposited by me nor anybody for the Argus Company, and not a penny ot it for the questions over came io me or the Argus Company in any manner whatever, directly or fnuirectly. This deniat {g intended to be as broad as possible and to mean that no connection, directly or indirectly, on the part of any one then or since con- nected with the Argus, ius ever been bad of a pecu- niary business ur other outure, with Mr. Tweed at any time other than as above sct forth.
