La LI8ERTAD, SAN SALVADOR, ria
GALVESTON, March 27.-The war,
which has been thought inevitable for
some days past, has already become an
actually. The forces Of Honduras and
those Of San Salvador have already
come into collision. and several skir-
mishes have occurred. The armies of
Guatemala and Honduras are acting in
harmony and are now confronting the
forces Of San Salvador.
Active measures are being taken by
San Salvador. Nicaragua. and Costa
Rica 10 protect themselves against the
revolutionary scheme Of President Bar
rios. On the 2jth Of the present month
an alliance defensive and offensive was
formally entered into by these three
States. and arrangements were perfected
for putting all effective force into the
field. San Salvador, whose territory is
most threatened, takes the leading place
in this alliance. She will put her
whole army into the field. Mica
ragua will provide 1000 men, and Costa
Rica will send 1000. Costa Rica
at the same time contributed hundred
thousand dollars toward the expenses
of the war. President Zaldiyai. of San
Salvador. will assume the chief COM
mand of the allied forces. President
Cardenas, Of Nicaragua, will be Sc
cond in command, and General Otis, Of
Costa RIGA, will probably take the
third place.

NEW YORK srocK xzRKEr.

NEw York, March 27.--Thc stock
market. like yesterday, was chiefly az
fected by Russo-English war-rumors.
Many spectators have sent orders to
commission.houses to buy on the open
declaration Of war. although conserve
tive operators. including leading finan-
ciers. assert that the first effect will be
a reduction in prices, and cite the effect
Of the Franco russian war in support
of their assertion. The declaration Of
per cent. quarterly dividend by the
Lackawanna and the passing Of the divi-
depd by the Lake Shore also influenced
prices. The opening was irregular, but
considerable strength was soon devel-
oped, and prices advanced quickly,
followed by reaction to the
lowest prices Of the day. The mar
ket, although irregular and feverish,
made decided gains, and many stocks
closed at the highest figures of the day.

THE PARSONS CASE.
judge Sssples's Argument.
Especial telegram to the Dispatch. I

Especial teltsfam 10 the DispatCn.l
WASHINGTON. ID. c., March 81
In the United States Supreme Court to-
day, upon the conclusion Of Mr..
Swayne's argument for the appellee in
the case Of the Auditor Of the State of
Virginia against Edwin Parsons tone Of
the coupon-tax cases.. Judge w. X.
Staples made the closing argument
on behalf of the State Of Virginia.
He contended that this case stands
upon different ground from that Of
any Of the other cases, because the ap-
pellee was not taxpayer, but mere
coupon-holder, as to whom there had
been no breach Of contract, because
there had been no tender Of or refusal
to receive the coupons. This case, he
said, is substantially an application in
the court for specific performance in
favor OF some future purchaser or
assignee Of coupons. He also made
an argument in line with the other ar
guments made in the cases. that this is
suit against the State Of Virginia.
The State, he said, though not party
to the record, is practically arraigned
before this Court on a question involving
her whole financial policy and the ex-
ercise Of her supreme political pow
er, and. he added, "the question
is whether this Court can by its
decree compel the imposition of
taxes in the State of Virginia for
the payment of public creditors" He
defended the good faith of the State Of
Virginia in the legislation respecting
the bonds. He said that the State has
since the war paid to her creditors in
interest on her bonds nearly twenty
millions Of dollars. This argument Of
Judge Staples closed the argument in
the coupon-tax cases, all Of which are
now with the Court.
