utation, during the last quarter of a century,

What did God mean in this country in
1851? For II century there was the gospel
preached. but great deal of it produced
no result. Then God hArncssed II wild
panic to a harrow of commercial disaster,
and that harrow went down Wall street
and up Wall street, down Third street
and MP Third street, down State street and
up State street until the whole land was
torn to pieces us it had never been before.
Whnt followed the harrow? a great

Has NOTHING 70 FEAR.

President Ez@ta. of Salvador. Talks on the
Central American situation.
New YORK, Aug ia special to the
Herald Friday from the city Of Sar
Salvador says:
have had talk with President Ezeta
on the situation of affairs in Central
America The presidant said:
u have nothing to fear in the interior
now. The people are unanimous in re-
pelling forcibly all foreign interference
with their home business, and are per-
fectly willing to fight out the question
with Guatemala. The army on the
frontier is $4,000 strong in seven en-
campments. The army on the frontier
OF Honduras numbers 1900 men. The
eastern frontier is also protected by g.
900 men.
II have no confidence in the peaceful
efforts of the diplomatic corps, and soon
expect reopening of hostilities.
know that Gen. BarFillas is gathering
troops on the frontier every day, and
am also preparing to receive him. My
troops are enthusiastic and are DESTROYS
to engage in battle.
Gen. Bogran was helping the Rivas
faction in an underhand way, and gave
an explanation through fear. He has
now thrown aside all disguise, and is
openly favoring the partisans of Ayala,
and l will invade Honduras before
Guatemala moves Nicaragua and Costa
Rica will not interfere otherwise than
automatically
"The diplomatic corps will only post
pone hostilities. Guatemala's govern
ment policy has always been deceitful:
we do not trust them. | cannot
possibly tell what the results of the
war will be. The Guatemalan army
is the more numerous but that of Sal
vador is better disciplined and fights
under the conviction that theirs is the
right and just cause, and that is really
the case, The Rivas rebellion was the
result Of Vaccination; his defeat and
death ruin all the hopes of Ayala.
"Nicaragua's sympathies are in favor
OF Salvador. Her troops at the Hon
duras frontier, however, are only for the
purpose of observation.
To-day | asked Gen. Bogran for the
last time to decide for peace or war.
Mr.. Miner, the American minister,
is personlly interested in peace. | will
soon organize cabinet, and the mo-
ment treaty Of peace is signed, | shall
convoke congress"
Minister Miner was closeted with
President Ezeta and the members of his
provisional cabinet several times during
his say here and there is feeling that
on Minister Miners arrival in the CAPT
tai of Guatemala he will, with the u.s.
sistance Of other ministers, be enabled
to present terms Of peace to President
Barrillas which he will accept.
The representatives, of Costa RIGA and
Nicaragua are taking firm stand in
favor of Salvador and are laboring hard
in the interest of peace
1t was rumOred here Friday that
President Ezeta was becoming uneasy
and had declared that if peace was not
brought about within three days he
would order the army of occupation to
move ON the GMNlemNlNn cnnital.
