PRESIDENT zALDlyAR.
He Leaves His Country for Good-A
Patriot Who is Tired of the Sceptre.

New YORK, June 4.
President Saldivar of San Salvador, who
arrived at New York in the steamer Acapulco
Yesterday, in conversation last evening re-
garding the recent events in Central America,
said
Barrios played me false. not / him. 1
have always believed in the uni6cation OF
Central America, but believe that it should
and can be accomplished peaceahly. 1t was
perfectly well understood between Barrios
and myself that l was in favor of Central
American unity. The presidents of the diff
ferent Central American Republics disagreed
at first as to the details of the plan of confed-
Grafton. but compromised agreement was
finally entered into, which was duly drawn up
and signed by the presidents of the different
republics. While thoroughly agreeing with
Barrios, as his ideas were expressed in the
agreement, l never at any time expressed
myself in favor of forcible union of the
different republics. Barrios issued his cele-
brated proclamation declaring himself dicta-
tor of United Central America. sent Senior
Figureos to tell him that had heard rumors
OF his intention to assume the Dictatorship,
and to inquire as to the truth of these re-
ports. Barrios sent back word to me that he
had no intention that time of pressing the
matter of the unifcation of Central America
at is very inopportune time," he said. at
will be simply like thrusting your hand into
a hornets nest. Twenty days later / was
astouned on receiving by telegraph, the pro-
clamation of Barrios, proclaining himself
supreme military ruler of Central America.
and announcing that he would carry out by
force if necessary his scheme of unication.
replied to this that could not support him
in any scheme of unifcation which rested on
force. Barrios then put his army in motion
toward the Salvadorean frontier. In ten
days | had an army of $1,000 men in
the field. The result you know. Barrios
was defeated and killed. For nine years
have labored in San Salvador, and now l
want little rest. l have devoted the best
part of my life to the public service, and
think that in my declining years should be
allowed little peace. The perils and ankle
ties OF the government shall throw off as
cloak, and spend the remainder of my life in
Europe. probably in England or France.
shall first stay a couple of months in the
United States. l sent in MY resignation as
president of San Salvador to the Senate, and
they refused to accept it, but granted me a
leave of absence instead. But before starting
placed in the hands of Senior Figuroes my
formal resignation of the position of Presi-
dent. shall never go back. The present
rebellion in San Salvador will, l think, be
easily put down. But it will be years before
the Central American republics become one
nation, and when that is accomplished it will
be done peacefully and not by force. hope
to live to see this consummated.

HANLAN AND BEACH.
The Canadians Opinion OF the Austral-
ian Oarsman-Aithough Defeated the
Former Raked in a Very Pretty sum.

ST. LOUIS, June 4.
AmouR the arrivals from San Francisco
Yesterday was Edward Hanlan, the oarsmau.
who is on his wav home from Australia. He
Is stopping at the Southern Hotel and in his
room there he showed his admiring friends
the magnificent diamond rings and brooches
which he and his wife had received from
admirers in Australia The ex champion
spoke freely upon all matters concerning
himself, and while he acknowledged without
hesitation that he was fairly beaten in his
last race with Beach he was of the opinion
tnat upon his own water, and with all con-
dinon favorable, he would find little trouble
IN getting away with the Australian.
Beach" said he. els better built man
and shows up as greater athlete than anv of
our oarsmen. His muscles stand out more
perceptibly and appear to be stronger, tough
er and frmer than those of any man man 1
have ever met, but still, even if had been
made OF steel and iron, could not have won
my last race with him in the face of the un-
doubted odds which the choice of position
gave him. The Parametta River, on which
we rowed, is very crooked, which, together
with the strong flood tide in the middle Of the
stream which / faced, gives the man who has
the choice of position an advantage equiva-
lent to at least three boat lengths start
While must admit that was fairly and hon
estly outrowed, still feel that was scarcely
myself and by way of illustration I'll say that
had either Wallace Ross. Trickett or Teemer
been in Beach's boat they could have won
from me as easily as he did But do not un-
derstand me as intending to belittle Beach's
ability as an oarsman. On the contrary /
consider him the greatest rover l have ever
met in race and fairly entitled to the cham
pionship. When l next challenge Beach it
shall be to row upon high water free from
tides where neither man will have any decided
advantage of position l have beaten in pri-
vate trials the best time Beach has ever made
and am anxious to meet him again
'Hanlan says he will return to Australia 10
Is months and that he will probably take
Gaudaur, Teemer and Ross with him, they to
assist him in making up four cared crew to
row crack Australian four for purse OF
$4,000 or $4,000. On his present trip he
cleared $3l 900 and received presents worth
100000 more.

vacated the office of minister of the interior.
1t Is said that Sir Alexander Campbell will,
at the close of the session, resign the port
folio of Justice and accept the position of
lieutenant governor of Ontario. Sir Leonard
Tilley. owing to failing health, will retire to
similar position in New Brunswick. The
most prominent uames put forward to all the
vacancies are Dalton Mccarthy, Q. c., for
minister of justice, Thomas White of the
Montreal Gazette, as mi mister of finance,
and Geo. A. Kirkpatrick, the present speaker,
minister of the interior. For the portfolio Of
railways, several names are mentioned, none

enough to secure the office.
