Ancient Ruins of Mexico From the New York Times. City of Mexico, Aug-1. via Cul- veston.—Rccoutly returned explor er* from the state of Chiapas confirm and add to the reiiiarkahle reports concerning important aroinoological discoveries. A fine broad paved road, built liy prehistoric inhabitants, has been traced from Tonala down into Guatemala and thence in *' curve up again into Mexico, termi nating at Palenque. All along this road arc still to be seen the remains of ruined cities, and a careful estimate of the population of these places is about 30,(XX),000. On that part of the road near Palenque the ruins are of great magnitude. Houses four and often five stories high have been found in the depth of the forest. Many of these houses are pyramidal in form, and so covered arc some of them with vegetable mold that large trees are growing from the roofs. In some oi the houses great employment has been made of stone beams of tre mendous weight, and the architect ure indicates a high degree of scien tific attainments. In some houses visited bronze lamps have been discovered, and the inter ior and exterior mural decorations of the more important houses consist of pancliugs filled with elaborately carved figures almost life siz.e, two types of men and women being rep resented, some plainly Egyptian and others genuine Africans. In front of one of the houses the explorers found fourteen sculptures of gods with folded arms. The work of exploration was one of extreme difficulty, owing to the density of the forest and the unwill ingness of the Indians to enter the ancient edifices, they averring that the buildings were inhabited by spir its. Another discovery was that ai enormous paved read extends from Palenque acrosst ucatan to the island of Cozumel, and is continued on the island. The explorers went to Chia pas on private business, hut incident ally became interested in the work of exploring the ruins, and they sug gest that the government fit out an expedition to make a complete, map of this wonderfully interesting region, regarding wliii^l little comparatively is known, even after so many years, since the white men became aware of its existence. Palenque explorers assert that they have’discovcred in the edifices lie- fore mentioned examples of a per fect arcli. One explorer is a scien tifically trained mail who has recent ly arrived from India, and by his ac count the region from Chiapas to Yucatan must have been the seat of a densely populous nation.
