graph , In Its article on Afghan news , saya :
Tha objection of the ameer of Afghanistan to
llussia'a claim to o position practically com
manding Xulfiknr pass Is supported by Lord
Salisbury. Lord Salisbury's reluctance to
content to llussla' * offer to submit the ques
tion to a joint commission Is owing to hi ) belief -
lief that such a course would bo roaultless and
would only delay the Btttlomont of the
matter , "

Ions , llussia preferring new claims and refuses

moro reassuring news was received late yas
torday from Col , Kidgeway , chief of the British
Afghan bounilry cummistlon , news from
other sources regarding the movements of the

that the Afghans have attached themselves
more firmly than over to our aide. "

powers , with the exception of Russia , have

MEXICAN FINANCES.
KV-l'IlKSIDENT OONZALK31 TAIir IN TUB riUS-
ENT BTATK OF AFFAIRS ,
CHICAQO , III. , Juno 1C. A New York
special to the Tribune says : The Mexican
government is obliged to look in every direc
tion for funds to meet Its immediate neccssl <
ties , whllotho question of relieving the general
financial difficulties of Its exchequer Is likely to
bo ono of jours. Among the methods pro
posed for securing money at once la ono which
affects the Tehuantapec railroad project , In
which a largo number of Americans nnd Knj [ <
Hshmen Invested about 83,003,000. The pres
ident of the road was Edward Learned , ol
Massachusetts , George S Coe , president of the
American Exchange .National bink.waaalarge
stockholder. They secured a era at and sub
sidy from the Mtxiran government fur n
road to run from Coat/icoalca" , on the Gulf
cf Mexico , to a point on the PrtciBc ocean n
few miles below La Ventosa. The grant ol
land exceeded 200,000 acre ? , and the com
pany expected on an mvottmenl of S5COOGOC
to SR,000,000 to clear not less than § 23 000,00 ;
to § 30,000,000. Their prospectuses were so
glowing that President Gonzalop , who was
then at the head of the Mexican government ,
became jealous of their prospects. Gonzalea
entire career was that of n royal freebooter ,
bent on enriching himself at the exuonso ol
the people. It is to his wholesale rob' '
bery of the public treasury that Mexicc
owes her present embarrassments. By the
stipulations of the grant the railroad company
was to complete a certain amount of road In a
given time forty consecutive mllss. They
had moro than forty miles completed ontitno ,
but not consecutively , because the Mexican
authorities nad told them repeatedly that thit
would bo looked upon in thelsplrit rather than
tha letter of the grant. Besides , the Moxlcar
government was behind $70,000 m Its subsidy
payments , and held § 100,000 of cash guarantee
money belonging to the company. Neverthe
less , Gonzaloi , without a moment's warning ,
declared the grant forfeited. The Tehuantepec
railroad company wag the only ono of three
organizations receiving a grant to put a shovel
in the ground. Gonzales avowed hia Inten
tion of completing the read himself. The
complications , however , were moro than h (
had counted upon. Ills high-handed eeizun
and revocation presented under tha circum
stances some ugly international quoitions ,
Beiide' , the projectors of other Mexicar
lines , under similar grants , became uneasy
and lest they should ba treated similarly , re
fused to go on with their proposed enter
prises. In this dilemma , thinking that thi
directors would bo unable to act for thi
stockholders and that an offer of set
tlement would of course be refused
Gonzalea offered the spent of tha roai
in the City of Mexico $1,500,000 to settle
The directors were able within four days , ii
which tune an answer was required , to ge
the consent of the stock and bond interest
and took him up. Of til's ' amount $500 00
has been paid. Another installment of $309 ,
000 ia past due. The Mexican governrnen
has been unable to do anything toward con
tinuing the construction of the road. Th
other enterprises have been paralyzed like
wise. President Diaz has great regard fn
Americans and Arnoriein enterprises. I
looking around for means to relieve th
government and replenish the treasur ;
bo has decided to offer th
Tehuantepec railroad company
renewal of Its grant , to begin just where i
was cut short by Gonzalea , on its repaymen
to Mexico of the sum of $500,00) . Telegram
from the City ot Mexico received here with !
a day or two announced the departure fo
New York of a financial agent intrusted wit
instructions and power to negotiate to thi
end. The line of the projected road is oborj
105 to 170 miles long , It crosses the moun
tains at only 780 feet above the ocean. Th
projectors will not say what action they prc
posa to take on President Diaz's motion utt
his agent arrives hero and they learn the fn
details ,

UA.TIIB RODAKAUOa'S DEATH.
SENSATIONAL HESULTS OF HER IlELATION WITH
LAWSON lULDWIN.
Special Telegram to The BEE.
FAtnriELt ) , Ia , , July 15 , Considerable
commotion was occasioned hero to-day by the
appearance of YanBuren county officials , who
were In pursuit of Lawson Baldwin , of that
county , The story of the crime , as related tea
a BEE representative , was of a motk revolting
character and savored strongly of mcrder. It
appears that Baldwin , a resident of Birming
ham , has been In intimate connection with a
woman of that place , MhsMattieRodabiugh ,
for the past eight or nine yoirs , and during
that period she has been in a delicate condi
tion three or four times through Bald
win , and each tuna an abortion
was performed , The last instance ,
which implicates n FalrSeld physician , proved
fatal nnd thence the trouble. Miss Rod.v
baugh came hero about throe weeks ago and
was engagedas a domestic at Mrs. Culborson's ,
a sister of Baldwin , whom ho had frequent
opportunities to visit her. During her stay
with Mrs , Culberson she was taken violently
sick and Dr. Milligan was summoned , He
wa ; very secret In his treatment. After a
week's illnees hero the patient was removed to
her father's residence In Birmingham , where
she lingered until Wednesday when she died
and was buried on Friday n week nffo. Sus
picion was aroused that all was not right and
a warrant was issued for Baldwin's arrest , but
up to Wednesday ho had _ not boon appre
hended , although ho was k'nown to have been
concealed hero until Thursday night when
he secured $500 , by mortgaging his fine farm ,
which is now understood to ba in possession
of hu father , and made his escape. The offi
cers employed in this case havn displayed no
very great talent , and have cosily been duped
by Stacy Baldwin , the fugitive's father.
The families connected with this tad affair
are prosperous tanners , Baldwin Is a bachelor
of 39 years , and tha deceased girl was 23
joars of ago. Should Baldwin no captured
and taken to Birmingham for a preliminary
trial he might be lynched , as the citizens there
are considerably Incensed at the course ho has
been pursuing there for years , The victim
made an ante-mortem statement to hsr
parents and the two attending physicians
charging Baldwin and Dr. Milligan with
being the cause of her death. Milligan can bo
secured at any time. A post-mortem exam
ination was made yesterday by the coroner ,
