SEDITION IN THE AIR
Republics on the Eve of an
Upheaval.
SUCCESS OF REBELS INEVITABLE
Costa Kics and Nicaragua Menaca Each
Other Keroit Imminent in
Honduras.
New Yobk, Sept. 27. A Herald dis
patch from Washington eayB :
The Central American republics, ac
cording to pan-American diplomats in
Washington are undoubtedly on the eve
of a general upheaval. The success of
the revolutionists in Guatemala, attain
ing the downfall of Barrios and the ele
vation of Prosper Morales to the presi
dency, is believed to be inevitable, and
is likely to, of itself, bring about a revo
lution in several of the republics.
The imprisonment of the Costa Eican
consul-general, Don Eduardo Beech, by
the Nicaraguan authorities is regarded
as a serious breach of international
courtesy that can hardly prevent a rup
ture. . ' ...
The seeds of sedition are easily sown
in Honduras, and the uneasiness in that
country seems likely to develop .into
open revolt against President Bonilla,
as an indirect result of the revolution
in Guatemala. Salvador alone of the
Spanish-American states at present ap
pears quiet and likely to remain so.
A successful revolution in either of the
republics com prising the greater republic
of Central American would mean the
dissolution of the feeble diplomatic bonds
which now unite them, and from preaent
conditions a coalition of this nature
might be difficult to bring about.
A pan-American diplomat who is thor
oughly familiar with the Central Amer
ican situation, eaid :
"There seems every probability that
the revolutionists in Guatemala will be
masters of tbe government in a short
time, and that Barrios will be forced to
leave the country, if he is not assas
sinated. One of tht strongest and most
efficient supporters of the Guatemala
revolution is General Domingo Vasquez,
who is now in Chiguinala, where Barrios
is. Vaequez about , four years ago was
president of Honduras, but was driven
from that country. He would like to
regain the presidency of Honduras, and
should Morales be made president of
Guatemala through his aid, plots will be
formed for the downfall of President
Bonilla.
"Vasquez as president of Honduras
would be dangerous to to peace of
Nicaragua. His hatred of Zelaya would
easily find a pretext for starting afresh
' the latter's opponents, who, with aid
from Honduras and Guatemala, would
probably be able to defeat Zelaya and
elevate his rival, Alejandro Chammorro,
to the presidency. These results, I be
lieve, are almost sure to follow a revo
lutionary victory in Guatemala."
Dr. Horatio Guzman, formerly min
ister to the United States from Nicar
agua, said :
"under present conditions it is im
possible to prevent recurring revolutions
in Central America. I have long advo
cated the establishment of a protecto
rate of the United States over Nicaragua
and the other states, if not actual an
nexation, and in this view I am sup
ported by a majority of the educated and
moneyed classes of the Central Amer
ican states, I see no other means of in
suring the benefits of a peaceful
republican government to Spanish
America."
Steamers for Alaska.
Tacoma, Sept. 27. The Steamers City
Cured by
"Happy Thought"
Salve.
"I was troubled with an Eczema or
eruption on the-hands for two years. I
spent quite a sum. of money without get
ting a cure. Then I commenced using
Garland's Happy Thought Salve. I have
used six or eight jars, and am cured. It
is a great medicine, and- J can fully rec-
ommend it to anyone troubled with skin
disease." J,- M. ATKINSON,

BOTH FACTIONS CLAIM THE NAME.
Dispute AmoDi Nebraska Gold and
Silver Republicans.'
Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 27. Some inter
esting litigation growing out cf the pecu
liar state of politics in Nebraska has de
veloped. The gold republicans have
filed a protest with the secretary of state
against the silver republicans being
designated on the ticket under that
name. They state as a reason that the
new election law of the state prohibits
any new party from taking the name or
any part of a name of a political organi
zation already in existence.
In reply tomorrow the silver republi
cans will begin by admitting the correct
ness of the gold republicans' interpreta
tion of the law, but will maintain that
the republicans are the usurpers and
should be enjoined from using the title
"republican party," and in support of
their position they will quote from a
number of state platforms in which a
common use of gold and silver is de
clared to be the cardinal principle of the
republican party, and in which free
coinage is supported. In addition they
will quote from speeches made in
Nebraska by Senator Thurston, in which
he declared his adhesion to free silver,
and asserted that it was a part of the
original policy of the republican party
that tbe two metals should be tbe origi
nal money of the nation.
Whatever the decision of the secretary
of state is, tbe case will be carried to the
supreme court. It is thought that the
matter will assume national proportions.
TBE SEALING CONFERENCE.
England Has Not Refused to Participate

THE GUATEMALAN REVOLT.
Government Forces Several Times De
feated Near Quezaltenango.
New York, Sept. 27. A Herald dis
patch from La Libertad, Salvador, says:
The latest news received in this city
from Guatemala is that several engage
ments have taken place between the
governments and rebel forces near
Quezaltanango, and J,hat they have re
sulted in tbe defeat of the government
troops. The fighting in each instance
has-been caused by the government's ef
forts to retake Quezaltenango.
The government has just sent 600 men
by the steamship City of Guatemala to
Champerico, which post is now in rebel
hands.
Tbe true story of the capture by the
insurgents of the seaport of Ocas has
just become known. It seems that when
the rebels approached Ocas the govern
ment troops made no attempt at defense,
but embarked on the steamer " Barra
couta and were brought to Salvador.
A Price of Morales' Head.
