Anti American Concessions Stir Mexican Editorials

A Mexico City dispatch to the Missouri Republican outlines opposition to Diaz concessions granted to Americans and firms.

The clerical press remains fiercely anti American while urging Europeans over Yankees.

Senator Brown Portrayed as Souths Wealthy Railroad King

A Chattanooga correspondent of the Philadelphia Press writes on Senator Joseph E Brown, declaring him possibly the richest Southern railroad magnate. The sketch paints him as a builder of lines, coal and iron stakes, governor turned senator, a powerful Baptist influencer, and a dominant figure in Georgia and Southwest Tennessee industry. It notes his vast holdings and long reach across railroads, mines, furnaces, and mills, with a vivid rural portrait of his image among farmers. Also included is an ad-like paragraph urging Dr Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for bilious symptoms.
