Mexican faction plans emigration and empire with Santa Anna
General Santa Anna and supporters aim to establish a Mexican empire within ninety days under church and army guard. They seek a new constitutional government led by a president to be chosen in September, with Santa Anna possibly directing events to seize control and widen influence in Baja California and Tehuantepec, while Spanish and other forces may back the plan. Meanwhile Texas papers report a violent confrontation and killings in a Logan County incident, and distressing suicides and tragedies unfold in New York as Ganz and Roche story echoes grief and guilt.
