THE WARRING SPANISH REPUBLICS.
HOW THEIR NEIGHBORS VIEW THE STRUGGLE
OLE GUATEMALA AND SALNADOR.

Panama July 2j.-UnCertain and unsatisfactory Is
the news that filters out from Central America Just
now concerning the political situation. The Only thhG
certainly known is that Guatemala and salvador arc
at war and that the campaign has opened success
tlv for the latter co1ntry. Her forces have boldly
cnossed the frontier and hrashed those OF her enemy
In six successive engagements. IN which the losses on
bo,T sides appear to have been mol incOnsldcrablc
That Honduras in alliance with Guatclna" seems
certain although there IS vet no notification OF her
having taken the field. Just what the attitude
Of Nicaragua and Costa Rica will be cannot he Ger
tainly foreseen That will probably largely depend
m the issue of the struggle between salvador and her
nor1bern neighbors Tie indications are that the
two southern Republics would act IN concert 70 p'c
vent the cOnsummatiOn Of GuatcmalaS notorious pro-
ect for the absorption OF salvador, ana Whch Is well
known to have been her motive IN provoking inc
present conflict
Meanwhile Guatemala has to settle serious ac-
oonn, with the United states on account Of the
sezure by Guatemala at san Jose de Guatemala on

episode strong hopes are entertained among Iaree
circle that the United states will put forth us psl

salVador, Nicaragua and Costa Rca nave so!uie
nothing less than positive abaudonmcnt on thc part
Of Guatemala Of her projects for extending Ac rue

MAKING PROGRESS.

Chief Bigelow and Major Mckee Consult
AbOuI the Arsenal Park-PermIssiou TO
Mako Surveys - The Land Is Worth
About $2,OOO,OOO-A Vote of Congress
Needed.
Chief Bigelow, of the Department of Pub
lie Works, yesterday held consultation with
the United States representatives in this city,
and several engineers on the subject of the
granting by the Government of part of the
Arsenal Park grounds as public
park for the city. The conversa-
ton was purely informal, as an act of Con-
gress is needed to make the transfer legal,
and the only thing that can be done is to
bring pressure to bear upon the members of
Congress from this district and PennsyI-
vania generally to have them advocate the
park gift from the nation. Some of the
reasons urged by the supporters OF Chief
Bigelow in his request are to the effect that
as Pittsburg supplied good deal of the
armament of the United States during the
war, and also good deal of the fighting
material in the shape OF men, the least the
War Department could do would be to sur
render more gracefully than Lee did at
AppomattoI, and with much less COM
pulsion.
Mr.. Bigelow yesterday received definite
permission to enter and survey the arsenal
grounds from Major Mckee at present in
command. The survey will be commenced
at once, and will be probably concluded
within two weeks.
Major Mckee said to DISPATCH repor-
ter last night: ''It would be improper for
me to express any opinion about the arsenal
scheme. am servant of the Government,
and in that capacity custodian OF the
grounds. My position imposes upon me
silence, and 1 must not infringe in any way
what distinctly belongs to the Government
and is outside of my jurisdiction.
"The grounds are worth upward of s. OOO.-
900, and they are the most valuable piece of
property in Lawrenceville. will not place
any obstacle in the way of the civic author
tiles taking all the plans and specifications
that they may want. If a communication
comes to me from Washington for a report.
1 will send it, and if the Government thinks
it would be good thing to hand over the
grounds to the LaWrenceville public, no
time will be lost in following out the order
and turning the land over to the public for
park. As far as / am concerned the con-
sultation between Mr.. Bigelow, Mr.. Pater-
son, Mr.. Ferguson and myself about the
park yesterday is private"

A CITY PROBLEM.
The snIe Of the Old POsrOfice and Putting
Up a Now Building Would Shut of City
Hall LIghEs-SOme Adjoining Land is

The snIe Of the Old POstO1fice and Putting
Up a Now Building Would Shut OFF City
Hall LIghrn-sOme Adjoining Land is
Needed.
In the days of electric lights, electric cars
and general diffusion of modern brilliancy,
1t seems to be possible that the city fathers,
some of whom, by the way, are bachelors,
may have to sit in darkness. As to the
members of Council who may have to be
engulfed in gloom, the elections next Febru-
ary may decide. One thing is certain, the
postofice authorities will sooner or later
shift their responsibilities and offices from
the classical building now ornamenting the
corner of Smithfeld street and Fifth ave-
nue. further down the street, and the people
who succeed Uncle Sam as per act of Con-
gress may build hotel, printing Office
or mammoth drygoods emporium, any of
which will receive letters instead of dis
tributing them, and any of which will oc-
cupy every available inch of space.
Here is where the difficulty occurs: The
municipal building is said to infringe to
some extent upon the Government property,
and a dead wall put up against the City
Hall would put the civic authorities into
WAYS that are darker than any reform adVo-
cate ever contemplated. The Treasurer's
office would be under cloud, and, as for the
upper chambers, there would be no necessity
for general order to prevent employees from
going outside to use language strong enough
to express their feelings.
This is very serious question, and before
the transfer of the business is made from
one building to the other it is contemplated
to have a meeting between the United States
and city officials to condemn sufficient space
between the two buildings to allow lightand
ventilation to both.
Postmaster Larkin said yesterday that
although he disliked to make any sugges-
tions going out of Office, he knew that his
successor would find himself cramped for
room. For two years he had to struggle
with restricted space, and he knew what
the strain was. The vacant ground between
the two main buildings would have to be
covered by temporary structure or lease
obtained of the building on Fifth avenue
before the business could be removed. In
the former case the mail wagons would
have to back in upon the public street, and
as they have right of way over all vehicles,
the street car lines and other methods of
locomotion or freightage would have to suf-
fer to some extent. AS it is Mr.. Larkin
said, he was so cramped that the health of
the postofice force was rather pleasant
dispensation of Providence in favor of Pitts
burg when taken in connection with the
rapidly-growing mail service required by
the city's business increase.

INCREASING THE FEE.
Coming Competitors May Have to Pay
More TO Get in the Unions.

Coming ComposItors May Have to Pay
More TO Get in the Unions.
There is proposition on foot to increase
initiation fees of L. A. 1880, Knights OF
Labor, and Typographical Union No. Z. At
the last meeting of 1880, Sunday last, mo-
tion was made to make the fee SO instead
of So. A movement is also on foot to in
crease the fee from 81 to S.. 1t is also pro-
posed to make the dues of members of
the latter organization 1 per cent of each
mans earnings in a month.
When the proposition was made to 1880 it
was laid on the table. Those back of the
scheme say they have a good organization
and propose to make those who wish to enjoy
the benefits pay for the privilege One of the
most pleasant features of the association is
its sick fund. When a member becomes sick
he receives more aid than he would in any
other society.
The following new officers of 1880 were in
stalled Sunday: Master Workman, H. J.
Kimpton; Worthy Foreman, George 'NeilI,
both of The DISPATCH. Charles Warde,
the old Secretary, was reelected.
The following are the candidates for posi-
tions of trust in No. Z: For President, Alex.
McWilliams, Anson Ramsey and John
Foster, of The DISPATCH, and Calvin
Wyatt; for Vice President, C. F. Warde,
Mr.. Harrington and Mr.. Murray; for Secre-
tary, Robert Baglin and Thomas Dicus.
For Treasurer Hugh Adams has no opposi-
tion. The election will be held March 26.
