: "" ' Raasla Afraid of China. '
Lovuoh, Oct. 1. The refusal of Ras
i a tsks) vfen4 i, Cochin China is at-
tributed to the dread with which Russia
has' always regarded China's capacity
for injuring Russia's interest in the in
terior of ' Russia. Russia has always
feared that a sudden and overwhelming
movement of the Chinese could sweep
back the Russian dominion, perhaps to
the Ural mountains. This fear seems to
have been traditional, and is as strong
today as when Russia was ' a Tartar
province. The Chinese have a very
large force stationed near the Manchar-
! ian boundary, and could throw an armv
into Siberia far superior to any force
that Russia could readily place in that
neighborhood.

of a flved amount of silver and nickel.
This money is now being coined. The

upon the establishment of the National
Argentine bank.

SOUNDS LIKE A FAKE
It is Rumored that a Party of Moneyed
Men of New York Are Backing the
Guatemala Revolution.
American Citizens Arrested and Thrown

Authorities.
Report of an Attempt to Assassinate
the Emperor of Austria Troops
on the Russian Frontier.
Guatemala, Oct. 1. News of the most
sensational character has been received
here during the past twenty-four hours.
There is considerable excitement in San
Salvador regarding the revolt in Guasc
mala. A ray of light has just been
thrown on the present revolution in
Guatemala by a retired American officer
now residing in this city, who, for var
ious reasons, does not want his name to
appear in connection with the story.
According to the stoty he tells, three
Americans supplied with plenty of
money visited this city ' about two
months ago. ' To him they disclosed the
fact that they represented a revolution
ary party in New York that had for its
object the downfall of Barrilas' govern
ment in Guatemala, and were backed
with funds to carry the movement to a
successful issue. Their plan of action
was to send experienced military officers
into Guatemala. They were to be dis
tributed throughout the republic and
when the time was ripe were to take
command of the revolutionary troops.
He believes 'the present revolution is
due to the New York parties who fur
nished funds and ainunition to the in
surgents.. CHILIAN OITKACKS.

PROBABLY A HOAX.
Kejtort of an Attempt to Assassinate the--Emperor
Francis of Austria.
Vienna, Oct. 1. The Emperor Francis
arrived, in safety at Reichenberg, near'
Prrguc, this morning, and with his ad
vent the news of an attempt upon his
life spread all over Austria. The generat
opinion is that the news circulating is
either untrue or else exaggerated, but it
has caused great consternation. The
story is that last night an attempt was
made with a dynamite bomb to blow up
the railroad bridge at Rosenthal, a
suburb of Reichenberg. This is said to
have occurred shortly before the emper
or's train passed over the bridge. Some
railroad watchmen said they saw the
would-be assassins as tbev were upon
the point of attaching the "bomb to the
bridge structure, and by appearing upon
the scene frustrated their design.
Troops on the Russian Frontier.
Berlin, Oct. 1. A Vienna dispatch
speaking of the Russian maneuvers at
the Pruth, calls attention to the fact
that the Crimean war began with the
crossing of the Pruth by , the Rus
sians, and says that everything points to
a similar heginning for the next great
European conflict. Five squadrons of
Roumanian cavalry have reached the
Roumanian boundary opposite to where
tiie Russians are maneuvering, and
there have been midnight demonstra
tions by the Russians since the cavalry
I arrived. ine latter came oy lorcea
marches trom iiucnarest and will remain
on the frontier with a division of infan-
try, now on the way, as a corps of obser
vation. It is said tbe arrival of Rou
manian troops seemed to take the Rus
sians by surprise, as if their plans had
been discovered and checkmated.
