VITAL STATISTICS.
GEN. MILES FOR PRESIDENT.
An incipient Boom Started by Army Of
ficers I'm Texas.
From the New York Herald

from the New York Herald
The rather obscure and unimportant city of
San Antonio, Tex, seems TO be now enjoying
the distinction Of being the incubator of
presidential boom. At least that contingent of
the United States army whose headquarters
are there is nurturing presidential boom. if
the talk and movements of army officers mean
anything. The subject of the boom is Maj.
on very quietly, almost secretly. 1t is under
stood to have started on the Pacific slope,
where Gen. Miles was stationed a number of
years. From there it has been transferred to
Texas through the army circles.
1t is given out on good authority that Russell
Harrlsons mission to Texas was not SO much
for the soliciting of subscribers and advertisers
TO his papers as to actively enlist the influence
OF the army in the interest OF Gen. Miles for
President. Gen. Stanley was asked yesterday
il there was any truth IN the rumor of the
Miles boom. lie said there a great deal of
truth, but did not care TO talk about the matter
further at present than to say that he believed
the sentiment of the country. and particularly
OF the republican party, was again ripe for the
elevation OF an army officer TO the presidency.
Another prominent officer said: You can
state that tremendous effort Is going to be
made to nominate Gen. Miles the republican
candidate for President He has all the re-
quirements of a winner He is closely related
to the Shermans by marriage and will have
this powerful influence, with its immense fol-
lowing, at his back.
President Harrison, I think am safe in
saying, will not apply for denomination and
favors Gen. Miles. All things considered You
can announce to the world that Gen. Miles is a
candidate for President of the United States,
with mighty chances Of success"

SENATOR HEARST WINS.
His Colt Tournament Takes the Reali-
Zation Stakes.

Senator Hearst had victory at the Sleeps
head Bay track yesterday. His colt Tourna-
ment, a son of Sir Modred. bred in California
and trained by Californian. won the Realiza-
ton stakes in a race about which there was no
doubt from the start to the finish. 1t was the
second running OF this, the richest three-year-
old stake in America, and California owners
have won it both times, Mr.. Haggin capturing
it last year with his colt Salvador after a very
tight squeeze with Tenny. That was the be-
ginning of the famous series of contests be-
tween these two famous horses, who easily out
class any two colts in America today. Senator
Hearst was unable to be at the track to see his
colt win the $4,000 prize, on the winning of
which his heart, as well as that Of his trainer,
Matt Allen, and of his jockey, the veteran Hay
ward, Was set. He WAS unfortunately confined
to his room at the Hoffman, House by illness
Ex-Congressman Scott, too, was kept from the
track by politics in the Keystone state, and he
was spared the annoyance of seeing his two
candidates beaten out of sight.

MENENDEZ WAS KILLED.
The Revolution in Salvador Started
With Assassination.

Senior Dieguez, the Guatemalan minister al
the City of Mexico, received telegram from
his government announcing that President
Menendez of San Salvador was assassinated
and did not die natural death. In addition
the minister said that the telegram also states
that the people of San Salvador are protesting
against the usurpation of power by Gen.
Ezeta, who will not permit the truth to be pub
lished or sent out of the country. Special dis
patches from San Salvador say that several
differen: factions in that republic are trying to
secure control of the government, while the
Gustemalan government fosters everything
tending to produce discord in San Salvador
President DIaz stated that he had not yet been
called on officially to interfere in the Salvador
affair.
The New York Tribune today says: Private
advices received In New York concerning the
death OF President Menendez and the recent
occurrences in salvador show that the revolt
was the outcome OF far-reaching conspiracy
President Menendez OF Salvador. President
Bogram of Honduras ard President Barrillas

by which the unification of Central America
was to rebound to their own advantage. These
three presidents have been in power for
five years and the end Of their rule was APP
preaching. Representatives of the five repub-
lies met and a convention was entered into by
Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras by which,
when the unlfication went into effect on August
6, the three presidents were 10 take year each
in office, the first to hold Office to be decided by
lot, in the capital Of Honduras. The other
presidents were to hold power in their respect
I've countries in the meantime.
Menendez at first objected to this plan. but
was persuaded to assent to it. He also agreed
to help to force Nicaragua and Costa RIGA 70
come In. 1t was finally agreed between the
three conspirstors that the combined armies
of the three nations should march against the
republics of Costa Rica and Nicaragua if the
presidents Of these states refused to join the
combination. The people of the countries in
question were net IN sympathy with this plan
and the SGlvadorians cut the Gordian knot by
the revolution which was accomplished on the
day of the anniversary of the triumph Of
Meneudez over Zaldivar.
