They were worried that the Americans would soon try to have the Spanish territory secede from the remainder of the colony and join with America. This fear was entirely rational considering that Texas (part of Spanish Mexico) actually did exactly that in the 1830s.

Why were spanish officials worried about the US claming territory in Texas?

Spanish officials were concerned about the U.S. claiming territory in Texas due to the potential loss of their own territorial integrity and influence in North America. The expansionist ideology of Manifest Destiny fueled American interests in Texas, threatening to undermine Spanish control. Additionally, the presence of American settlers in Texas heightened fears of rebellion and the possibility of the territory being annexed by the U.S., which could destabilize the region and encourage further American encroachments into Spanish-held lands.
