IN CENTRAL AMERICA
The War Between Salvador and
Guatemala.
GENERAL RIyAS TURNS TRAITOR.
All Is Quiet In Buenos Ayres Once More

Especial to THE Examiner Cable. |
CRY OF MEXICO, July 3l.-Geronimo
Pau, confidential agent of the Ezeta gov
eminent in speaking about the possibilities
OF peace between Salvador and Guatemala,
said the army of Salvador is in most
excellent position to demand an honorable
peace "OGr country has not been the ag-
gressorn he said. Guatemala has en-
deavored to dictate to US who shall be our
president; she has been too meddlesome
and has received practical object lesson
that will make her more cautious in future
how she interferes in our internal affairs
''The offices Of the United States and
Mexico in bringing about peace between
Salvador and Guatemala will be appre-
ciated. Our country does not want war
but we want an honorable peace that will
guarantee that there shall be no inter
meddllng in our internal political affairs
from outside Central ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
The Guatemalan minister was seen in the
afternoon. He says he will have no news
until decisive battle has been fought be-
tween his country and Salvador but he
cannot suggest when this eliminating
event will take place.
In the last six battles in Guatemala be-
tween the army of the republic and that of
Salvador the latter are reported as having
obtained the most complete and decisive
victories over their enemies. The battles
were fought near and in Jutapa, twenty
four miles from Atescatempa, the main
thoroughfare to the city of Guatemala
where Barilas had modified strong army
to intercept the triumphal Salvadorian
force. Considering that all the prominent
eminences and they are many, were forti-
fed between Atescatempa and Jutiapa and
that the Salvadorians were fighting against
great numerical odds, their victories are
the more remarkable.
| The Guatemalan army owing to its re-
peated defeats, poor discipline, and because
the reinforcements had been overmarched
was no match for the well disciplined
troops of Salvador and was forced to yield
FORTH cation after fertilization to the en-
envy. 1t is impossible to get the exact
number of troops engaged in battlesat pres
emit, owing to the fact that both armies have
been reinforced, but the number will not
fall much short of thirty-tive thousand, of
which some twenty thousand were Guate-
malans. 1t is stated that the report of a
revolution in the departments of eastern
Guatemala comprising Jutiapa. Chiqui-
mula, Santa Rosa, Zacapa and Jalapa,
against Barrilas are true and that the revo-
lutionists are headed by prominent gener-
ais. 1t is believed here that the United
States and Mexico are going to bring about
| peace in Central America.

OMAHA, Neb., July 91.-[Special telegram
TO The HERALD.l-A special to the Bee
from Johnstown, Neb., says: The two
men who robbed several passengers on
the Elkhorn train last Monday night at
Aribia were captured to-day three miles
south of Wood Lake. Ever since the deed
was committed they have been lost in the
sand hills. They supposed that they were
travelling away from the railroad when
they were getting nearer all the while.
Early this morning they went to the home
of j. ID. Bruce and tried to induce him to
take them to some friends they claimed to
have near the Burlington g. Missouri rail
way. As they could not tell their friends
names, Mr.. Bruce became suspicious Of
them and concluded they were the train
robbers. He agreed so make the trip for
them, but told them to stay at his house
until he went to a neighbours to borrow a
spring wagon. This the men agreed to do,
and Mr.. Bruce, instead of gong for a
wagon, went to S. g. Barnes, a neighbor,
and sent him into Wood Lake for assist
ance. G. A. Johnson. William Day, L.
Meyers and another man armed themselves
and proceeded to capture the fugitives,
which was done very easily, as the men
were neatly trapped and made but little re
sistance. The outlaws are brothers, their
names are ]. A. and Velmore Heron, and
they live near Battle Creek, Neb., where
they claim to have friends who will help
them out of their scrape.
Conductor Nelson, who had charge of the
train that was robbed, went 10 Wood Lake
and identified them. In their possession
was found four As Smith Il Nesson revol-
vers, $50 in silver, one bogSs oliver dollar,
and the bag they made the passengers de-
posit their money in. They seem to be
new men at this work, but from the pre-
parations they had made there is no doubt
they had started out to make train rob
bing their business. Deputy Sheriff John
son has taken them to Valentine for safe
keeping.

Secretary Noble on the Irrigation surve


WASHINGTON, July 31.-An answer to the
inquiries in regard to the irrigation surveys
contained in the recent Senate resolutions
was sent to the Senate to-day by Secretary
Noble. He states that the director of the
geological survey actually surveyed and
marked the boundaries of the areas of
sites for reservoirs by him selected under
the act of 1888, and the tracts SO segregated
are so marked that they can be discovered
on the ground and delneated on land Office
maps. On the reservoir site selections
only so much land has in each instance been
reserved as is intended to be used for the
storage of water 1t was not intended, the
secretary says, that the surveys and selec-
tions under the act of 1888 should be car
RED to the extent of planning a system
OF canals, bitches, checks and burrows for
the distribution of water over farms which
1t is deemed the people, when they come to
cultivate these lands, can better do them
selves. The general purpose and plan of
the department, the secretary says, is to
preserve the sources of water supply from
the possession or appropriation of indi-
viduals or corporations. 1t is believed. he
says, to be the duty of his department., so
long as this statute remains to enforce it.:
that its fruits, at least in the preservation
OF the source and reservoirs for water may
be kept under either national or state
governmental control

CHICAGO, July. 31.-The Daily Nelcs this
morning Thursday prints the following:
This is not particularly brisk or lively sea-
son for the jewelry trade, but neyeruhe-
less the jewellers and silversmitns OF
Chicago have made at least $40 600 within
the last ten days. They would have made
this much if there had not been a sale

Legitimate manner and their united thanks

government demand represents an
amount of bullion which will drain all
available resources. England wants silver.
just now to send TO India in payment for
wheat and cotton, and makes an earlier de-
mand than usual because Of the action of
| the government on this side. The two
contendiEg forces are fighting for silver.
and as natural consequence silver is ad-
vancing in price. Already the price of
bullion has advanced 10 per cent. and ia
now worth nearly one dollar and fifteen
cents an ounce. The price of all manu.
| featured silverware has advanced In pro-
| portion, and hence 1t happens that the
wholesale and retail dealers in Chicago
| have been marking up goods aud saving
nothing to the public about it. They have
not called in the reporters to notify them
that silverware is becoming as valuable as
| gold, but have maintained discreet and
united silence.
| When a Nelcs reporter made the rounds
of the wholesale and retail houses yester-
day he found general disposition on the
part of the dealers to be reticent in dis
cussing the matter, although all were ready
| to admit that silver had advanced in value
10 per cent. Edward Foreman. superin-
| tendent at Spaulding's, was not one Of the
close mOuthed ones. s'Silver has gone AWAY
up said he, land it means money in our
| pockets. for we have a large stock of manu-
| featured ware on our hands. We received
notice one week ago last Monday from the
manufacturers that prices had advanced Is
per cent, owing to the rise in bullion occa-
stoned by the adoption of the silver bill. OF
course our prices went up in consequence. A
| five ounce watch case is worth about sevetv-
| five cents more than it was before. All ware
made of sterling silver and what we cali
| platware has advanced about Is per cent
| in prizes. Hollow ware has not advanced 20
much because its principal cost is in the
work done on it rather than the material it,
/ self. do not understand why any of the
| silversmiths should hesitate to give tee
| facts in the case. Our stock has increased
| in value from . TO per cent within {. week
and am glad of it. Silver will get higher
before 1T drops again. and the bullion will

anticipate auy higher figure than that The
price is already higher than it has been for

DENVER, Colo, July 81 Especial tele-

rumors have been current that the Rocky
Mountain Nctos has been sold, and that the
new management would run it in the inter
est of that faction of the Republican party
in Colorado at present represented in the
United States Senate. Senator Teller has
denied that he has any interest in the tran
saction, but it is understood his friends
have Clipped into the pool. The only
names mentioned in connection with the
purchase are those of Henry Wolcott. his
brother the Senator, and e1-Postmaster-
General Clarkson. These, it is understood,
furnished the bulk Of the funds while the
others are in for lesser amounts. The price
named is S400,000 which is thought to be a
mask to cover the real sum, as an option
was secured on the paper not long ago by
another party at quarter million which
they declined after an examination made of
the assets. 1t is said that Griffith, mana
