Barries's Threatened UsurpstIea.
IRy telesr4pn 10 the Dispatcn.l

LIBERTAD SAN SALVADOR, March
1.-THE firm attitude assumed by
Mexico in behalf of the autonomy of
San Salvador. Nicaragua, and Costa
RIGA against the threatened usurpation
of President Barrios, Of Guatemala,
excites grateful enthusiasm throughout
the three republics. The determine
ton Of the people Of these countries
to resist the incorporation into one re-
public under the domination of Barrios
continues steadfast, and the fall of
Barrios is considered certain. The
Mexican Legation, which has been d.
rected to leave Guatemala and proceed
to San Salvador. is expected to reach
the latter city within few days. The
forces Of San Salvador are being con-
centrated on the frontier Of Guatemala.
The general opinion here is that the
scheme Of Barrios will meet with an
ignominious failure.
CITY OF MEXICO. March l4.-The
action of the Mexican Government in
condemning General Barrios's preten-
sions is warmly commended by the
newspapers of this city, almost all OF
them recommending that if it should
be necessary to put Barrios down the
Mexican army be sent to aid San Sal
vador and Nicaragua. 1t is considered
by many here that if Barrios should
succeed in making himself dictator OF
Central America his next attempt would
be on the Mexican States OF Tabasco
and Chiafias.

By telegraph 10 the Dispatch.
BALTIMORE March 1.-THE failure
of Pope. Cole & Co. has made serious
impression upon industrial interests.
The Baltimore Copper-WOrks gave en-
ployment to several hundred operatives,
who in short time may be added to
the already large numbsr of idle men
in the city, and it is impossible now to
predict what will be the outcome. An
effort will be made TO continue the
business. Morton Stewart, who has
been made trustee, has large business
experience. and the hope is expressed
that he will be able to straightcn out
the ENHANCEMENT. Pope, Cole & Co.
had large contracts for copPer-ore at
prices not warranted by the present
low price Of copper, and an adherence
to which would have entailed much
greater loss.

A telegram from Clarington. Ohio,
tells Of an attachment which was formed
at a skating-rink between Minnie Ham,
ilton, whose parents live on the Virginia
side of the Ohio. and Arthur Simpson.
They became engaged and resolved to
elope. not because of probable opposi-
ton to their marriage. but because
clipping would be so much more roman
tic. The fight was fixed for Thursday
night. In attempting to climb out Of a
second-story window the girl fell to the
ground below, where her lover was in
waiting. The family were aroused, and
the girl was carried back into the house
in an insensible condition. Friday

A Trusted Paeha Arrested.


ALEXANDRIA, March l4.--Zobehr
Pacha. whom General Gordon so trusted
and wished made Governor Of khar-
toum. has been arrested under the
charge Of being Implicated in treason
able conspiracies against the authority
of the Khedive. His residence was
searched Immediately after his arrest,
and in it were found many documents
proving that Zobehr was in secret
league with FL Mahdi. The prisoner
has been placed ia confinement aboard
a British frigate.
LONDON, March l4.-zobehr Pacha
will be informed in the Island Of Cyprus.
He has been under surveillance (which
practically made him prisoner for the
past two years. His wealth, which
was mainly acquired in the slave-trade.
was confiscated, and he was allowed
quarterly stipend on condition that he
should not leave Alexandria without
the consent of the Khedive. Cen
eral Gordon pleaded that Zobehr
should be restored 10 power in
the Soudan, and said that the ex-
slave King was the only man who
had enough nerve and prestige to keep
the Arabs in subsection. Gordon had
encountered Zobehr during his former
service in Egypt, and had incidentally
hanged one of Zobehrs sous, who had
been left as a hostage and whose
life had become forfeited by an act
of treachery on Zobehr's part. When
Gordon was sent to Khartoum last
year both he and Zobehr Pacha seemed
to have agreed to ignore the past, and
it was another Of Zobehr's sons who
escorted Gordon across the desert from
Korosko TO Abuhamed. Without this
escort, it is certain that Gordon would
never have got to Khartoum. Now it
has been discovered by the British
Government that Zobehr Pacha has
been in continual correspondence with
Fl Mahdi, both before and since the
capture Of Khartoum and the killing Of
Gordon. Several other persons are
about to be arrested, including some
prominent notables.

LONDON, March l4.-Sehor Martinez,

An official dispatch from RIO Janeiro,
dated yesterday. states that the CON-
plants made by the Gillian Govern

ON the Peruvian war claims, have been
admitted as well founded, and that
Dom Pedro. the Brazilian Emperor,

Chill accused Netto Of systematically
Judging against Chill with an utter dis

tionai Jurisprudence. The withdrawal
of Netto from the Arbitration Court
will not. however. affect the decisions
Of che mt;trators already made--not

THE LAUNDRY SECRET.

:. Foulard cambria contains arsenic,
and wearers Of dresses made from 1t
have suffered from nasal catarrh. pha-
ryngitis. and gastric irritation in conse-
quence. Painful irritation OF the skin
is not infrequently caused by wearing
stockings colored with arsenical pig
ments. Poison is most often found IN
light red, magenta-cOlored, and brown
stockings. Some cases OF death FROM pot
soning by this means have been report
ed. Persons have been fatally poisoned
by the green flannel lining IN boots,
by maroon flannel shirts, by calico
shirts. coat-sleeves. hai-iinings, and
paper collars Some manufacturers OF
paper collars and cuffs introduce arsenic
INTO the finishing IN order TO impart a

A Common Sense Idea.

Farmers and other outdoor workers
have long suffered from the too rapid
wearing out of the soles of their rub
Der boots. Dirt and gravel, when
wet, offer the best possible tools for
cutting and grinding away the rub
Der sole, and to this destructive agen
cy rubber boots are continually ex-
posed, from the very nature of their
uses. Some two years ago, however,
the "Candee Rubber Co., 'of New Ha-
ven, Conn, hit upon the idea of ma
king their boot soles double thick in
that part that undergoes the greatest
amount of wear. BY their invention
the extra rubber is added on the ball
just where it is needed, and nowhere
else. So that while the boot is in.
creased one hundred fold in durabil-
ity, the weight is but very slightly
increased. This improvement, known
as the Double Thick Ball, is adver.
tised in our columns by Messrs. H.
Childs q Co., of Pittsburgh, the
"Candee" Co.'S Distributing Agents,
and those of our readers who are in
