Guatemala 'Governed as
Usual, by Dictator Stu
dents Shot Down.
(Beant Knrs by Congest Leased Wire.)
San Francisco, Nov. 2. More students
" In .Guatemala have been shot to death
for criticising' the administration or
President. Estrada Cabrera. The, facts .
surrounding the sacrifice of the-r lives ,
hve . been 'kept so profoundly, secret
ths? ev in Guatemala. City, where the
i1??: Jii. tht cracked out, their I
deaTh-knell were heard sunrise one
morning, not one man in a thousand et
knows of what took place. .
The storv was brought to this city
' today on the ateamer Sao. Juan.
rerS claiming that C. U Vucanovich, a
Khant, anRd Dr.Grlmler a P""
physician, both of Acapulco, were au
thority for the news.' Both of these
; men were, passengers on the San Juan
from San Sose de Guatemala to , Aca
pulo, and they showed no hes Itancy in
neakina of the death of three well-.
knownftudenS of the Owtamala capi
tal, the Bhooting taking plc auout
' three weeks ago.
- ' Cabrera, Dictator.
Since the shooting of several J
of students in Guatemala some months
ago by agents of Cabreras govern
ment, as- a result of adverse criticism
of the administration, the people of the
little republic, including the ?ore en
lightened students of the colleges, have
been more than ordinarily re"cent In
discussing public affairs, narUoularly If
the discussion, took the form ot criti
cism. But less than a month ago, at
a secret meeting held by aome of the
students, resolutions condemning- Ca
brera's administration were adopted, the
signers having felt humiliation over
the attitude assumed by the outside
' world toward their country, In conse
quence of the circulation of stories
showing Cabreras arbltrarx style of
D-nvarnmont
Two days after the secret meeting of
' Via tiii.nH th of the vounir men
who were ringleaders at the meeting
were quietly arrested knd taken before
a board made up from some of the
principal oiticiais oi iwi i,u;i.,
ment. Nobody knows what took place
at that Inquisition. It Is only known
that nine shots rang out at sunrise the
' next morning from the confines of the
Cunrtel, and that tile students are no
longer In Guatemala.
,- - Passengers arriving on the Ban Juan
say that there- is little Improvement
In the political situation In Guatemala
but that the country la In better com
mercial condition than for several
years past, though the rate of exchange
is still hlgh.A very noticeable thing
Is the fear OTfflclals, this condition
of things being qpmmon among all
classes. Not one word Of criticism of
Cabrera or his metnods la heard, even
in a whisper. It lsWorth a man s life
to talk, and once a man is taken .under
. rrest-well, the r urates and the ' Jefe
de Pollcla have, their orders, , should
the victim make anj effort to escape.
. " " Countries Prosperous. ,.
t Minlnr Enrlner D. T. Baker, one of
the San Juan's passengers, reports that
Nicaragua is apparently in the - beet
condition of all the Central American
States, though every one of them is
mora prosperous than for some., time
Nicaragua,--, says Baker, has taken all
: the former guards from railroad trains
and points lately policed, and that-he
appears to be relying Implicitly upon
the good intentions of the United States
aa the preserver of the peace In Cen
, tral America. Guatemala also seems
o have faith In Uncle Sam's good in
tentions, but this Is not the case In
Costs, Rica- and Salvador, at least to ao
reat an' extent. ' a h i-: -. -

, AFTER 15 YEARS
Long Life of Fever Bacilli Shown la
Case' of Milkmaid- Infection
f '.- U Conveyed by Milk.
j- Special .tHanatch to Th ImniL)
Washington, 'Nov. J. One of the most
remarkable discoveries In medical his
tory in connection with the source of
the spread of typhoid fever has Just
fceen brought to light as the result of
an lnvestlgatloiuby officers of the pub
lic health and marine hospital service
Into a recent outbreak of that disease
In Georgetown, or , West Washington,
I. C. ' v
' The investigation disclosed the fact
that a woman milker at a neighborhood
: dairy who had typhoid fever 1 years
ago: still throws off vlrlK typhoid fever
bacilli ,and was the responsible agent
In spreading the disease.
With one exception, this is the first
considerable outbreak of typhoid fever
in ine united states traced tnrough
: milk to such a carrier.
A. peculiar feature In connection with
the case Is that the examination devel
oped large numbers ot typhoid bacilli
although the woman apparently was en
joying goaa neaun.
Surgeon-General Wyman says an im
portant source of the disease has been
developed and one which heretofore has
1 not been-duly recoanized.
i The case just discovered Is deemed of
medical interest to. neaitn loriicers in
tracing obscure sources of typhoid fever
outbreaks.
General Wyman states that ' this ' case
- establishes the fact that at least 2 per
cent of all the recovered cases of ty
phoid fever become bacilli carriers for
a longer or shorter period, even -While
otherwise enjoying good healtn.

, THE PRSIDEUXIAL
' For the 0 years since the outbreak
of the civil war the Republican party
had practically contfolled the govern
ment, and until the period of the Dem
ocratic congress under President Hayes
had administered it without. restraint
or Interruption, , with the , exception of
the brief period when the Democrats
had a majority of congress. , During
this long lease of political power it had
unquestionably
lonably committed political
blunders, and
a general feeling had
come to exist that a party chastening
would be advantageous to
the public
a-ood. This chastenlnr
had already
prophesied itself by Democratic con
gressional majorities In 1874, 187$ and
again in 188Z. Now the chastening pro
cess ifas to extend Itself even to the
White House.
Republican Convention.-
The Republican national convention
met in Phicmro on Julv 2. There was
the usual number of candidates, but
the overwhelming sentiment of the Re
publican electorate was for the nomina
tion of James (i. Blaine, who had been.
in the popular estimation, robbed of the
presidency In previous campaigns, much
as had Henry Clav in the earlier days
or tne republic it win oe rememoereu
that the term of President Arthur was
expiring. It will also be remembered
that Arthur was made vice-president
under Garfield, not bocause of any par
ticular presidential training or partic
ular presidential qualifications, -but
mainly because Roscoe Conkllng needed
balm for his wounded feelings when the
Grant third term movement collapsed.
It will be remembered again that Ar
thur had been elevated from the collec
torshlp of the port of New Tork to the
vice-presidency and that he had entered
the White House by the door of fate,
following the assassination of Garfield.
That he made a respectable president
and a considerable decree of success
cannot be denied, and yet It could
scarcely have been expected that a man
of so little presidential experience could
have made himself his party's leader in
so short a time as-had elansed . between
Garfield's assassination and the Chicago
convention. Besides it was not cus
tomary to renominate vice-presidents
who bad eueeeeded to the presidency by
death. Furthermore, Arthur had In
curred the disfavor of many Republican
lender, bv reconstruct lnr the Garfield
cabinet with Grant Republicans, and
still more by vetoing a. river and harbor
bill carry an 18,000,0'bo appropriation.
Arthur never figured aa a potential pos
sibility to succeed himself. There was
stronely opposed to Blaine s nomination
an able group of Republicans who fav
ored 6enator Geofge Edmunds and
who forked hard, to bring about his
nomination, but ' to no avail. Blaine
was nominated on the fourth ballot and
with him General John A. Liogan, Illi
nois candidate for the presldenoy, was
nominated for second place. The an
nouncement of Blaine's nomination was
followed bv one of the most extraordi
nary demonstrations ever witnessed in
a convention hall. At last, it was said,
the leader of the Republicans had re
ceived the nomination which, ft was be
lieved, scheming politicians had denied
him la 187 and egairi in 1880. ;
- Democratic Convention.
Tha Democratic national' convention
also met la Chicago on July 8.. The call
of the convention was among other
things, en invitation - to Republicans
who were dissatisfied, with the Blaine
nomination to Join In the Democratic
triumph-, which was already prophesied.'
Public opinion In the Democratic pferty
had already selected the-man who Iras
to lead the ticket, and on the eeeond
bs'lot he ws -named with convincing
unanimity, IJe,w Grover Cleveland.

1884
Indiana, was nominated for vice-president.
Two other candidates were also In the
field. They were John P. St. John of
Kansas, nominee of the prohibition
party, and General Benjamin F. Butler
of Massachusetts, the Greenback labor
candidate.
Nominally the chief issue of the cam
paign was the tariff question, the Re
publicans advocating high duty and the
Democrats proclaiming, for a reform )
the existing schedule But the perso
al Issue was really the only question
involved. Never was a campaign
marked by more 'bitter personal denun
ciation of the candidates': Probably no
campaign canard ever became more
famous than the slogan of "Rum, Rom
anism and Rebellion," which was filing
out against Blaine among the Irish
Catholics of the United States the Sun
day before election.
As a matter of fact this slur on
Catholicism had never been made by
-Blaine at all, but wss merely made in
his presence, and when he refused to
correct It the Democrats declared he
sanctioned it, and thus the story
started.
Throughout the canvass Cleveland re
mained ouletlv at home, and left others
to do the campaigning. Blaine, how
ever, started from the east In AugUHt
and traveled for five weeks, making
from 10 to 16 speeches a day.
The vote of New York decided the
presidential contest Cleveland carried
the state by the small plurality of 1,147
In a total of nearly 1,000,000 votes, and
thus 1,000 votes elected him president
of the United States. The electoral "vote
stood, Cleveland, 219; Blaine, 182.
Blaine's defeat by so narrow a margin
after so long a struggle for the presi
dency was pathetic. A change of 600
votes in New York state would have
made him president. Blaine was sorely
disappointed at the outcome. His case
was strangely similar to that of his Il
lustrious predecessor, Henry Clay, 'Who,
Jlke Blaine, felt that his narty had re
fused him a presidential nomination
when victory was -sure, and had only
given It to him when the seat was a
heritage.
