tho Agitators.
NEW ORLEANS, July .-B. J. Mathes,
ons of ths party of fifty-two American
men, women and children who left Mexico
because of antl-forelgn threats and passed
through New Oleans late last night enrottte
to Cincinnati, said:
"One of the most alarming features of
the situation Is the fact that the Mexican
servants hsv joined In the sntl-forelgn
movement and the wives of foreigners are
U mortal terror of their families being
poisoned.
"I wss reluctant to leave the country,
but I simply could not resist the pleadings
of the members of my family. 1 am now
taking them to our former home In Ohio.
"The antl-forelgn movement Is strongest
In ths northern and central portions of
Mexico, where the natives have been
wrought up to a high pitch of excitement
by agitators and agents of revolutionary
societies. Along the Rio Grande border
the movement is not so strong, because the
Mexican fear the Texans, who know how
to shoot.
"The educated Class of Mexicans Is not
in sympathy with the sntl-forelgn move
ment, but is In a hopeless minority. Ths
army Is recruited from the lower classes
and cannot be relied upon. The uprising
Is scheduled to occur In September and It
will probably be necessary for the United
States to throw an army across the border
In order to protect American cltlcens.
"The antl-forelgn sentiment is growing to
such an extent that I do not believe the
Mexican government can cope with It suc
cessfully." Other members of the party Include men
with their families bound for Kentucky and
other states farther east.
Officials Deny Reports of Plot.
MEXICO CITY, July 21.-RoporU tele
graphed from various points on the United
States border regarding an alleged plot for
a demonstration agaltutt foreigners In this
Country on September 1, which Is Inde
pendence day, was denied by Mexican offi
cials her.
They say that the Internal peace of the
country Is assured and that there has been
no conference of state governors called at
this capital for the purpose of taking steps
to put down a threatened revolution In the
country. It is wholly Mfltrue, It Is as
serted that preparations are making for an
anti-foreign' demonstration on the part of
Mexican labor unions. The labor situa
tion Is well understood by the government,
which protects workingmen In their legal
rights of organising for mutual aid, but
does not allow such organisations to tran
scend the bounds . of public peace..' The
federal officials declare that a few agitators
who for some' months published a paper
In St. Louis, Mo., are responsible for the
reports that ill feeling exists between Mex.
lean workingmen ' arid foreign residents
here.
The Mexican authorities ridicule the
alarm and assure all classes of their ability
to continue the reign of law and order.
