VALUABLE LAW BOOK.

The Daughter II General 8arrundia Az.
vempts to Kill tho American Minister to
Guatemala-A Law Book Saves HIS Lie.
CITY OF GUATEMALA, Sept S.-A
daughter of General Martin Barrundia
who was shot to death in the cabin Of
the Paci fic Mail steamship Acapulco. 1T
tempted to shoot United States Minister
Miner yesterday.
Mr.. Miner was at the desk tran.,lat-
ing the guarantee given to him bv this
Government that Barrundia's life would
be spared in case he was surrendered,
when the young woman came into the
Office. As the Minister looked up from
his work she was standing within four
feet of him with revolver in her
hands
She saluted him. saying: '.Are you the
American Minister"
Mr.. Miner replied: Il am. Can be
of any service to you?"
With flashing eyes she accused him Of
having been directly the cause of her
fathers death. and announced that she
meant to kill him. Mr.. Miner took
the matter coolly and tried to reason
with the girl, who was apparently al
most crazed with excitement, and
in the most tragic manner poured
on him the bitterest invective
of which the Spanish language is capa-
BILE. At last she pulled the trigger Of
the pistol. Mr.. Miner had taken up a
heavy law book, which he, with appar-
emit carelessness, held between himself
and the girl and the bullet which was
meant for his heart was caught between
the leaves of the book. The sound Of
the shot attracted attention and before
second could be fired assistance ar
rived and the pistol was taken from the
young woman.
Throughout the entire exciting inter
view, Mr. Miner maintained the Ut
most GOODNESS, though the only thing
between him and the muzzle of pistol
held in the hands of a woman who evil
IDENTIFY intended to shoot him was a
heavy law book.
As soon as Barillas heard of the &C.
currence he sent his respects and offered
the power OF his Government to protect
the American legation. Mr.. Miner,
however, declined the offer, will not
prosecute the lady and insists that no
further notice shall be taken of the af-
fair. 1t is generally believed here that
Barrundia would have been in no
danger Of death had he not resisted ar
rest.

The Old House Of Sawyer, Wallace 4 Co.
Assigns Without Preferences - Losses
Run Into the Millions.
New YORK. Sept 5-Samuel A. Saw.
yer, David l. Wallace and David Miller,
constituting the firm of Sawyer, Wall
lace & Co., assigned yesterday after
noon for the benefit of their creditors to
Marshal Ayres. without preferences.
The firm was one of the oldest and
most prominent in the export and COM
mission trade. 1t dealt in grains, pork.
coffee, cotton, tobacco. petroleum and
provisions generally, and had been In
existence for thirty-seven years. The
firm had agents in every city
in Western Europe.
The house was established in 1853 by
Mr.. Samuel A. Sawyer. who came to
this city from Tennessee. The busi-
ness gradually increased until it has as
sumed mammoth proportions. its rami-
6cations extending to all portions of
the globe.
In 1858 tobacco syndicate unloaded
on them an immense amount of low
grades, which they he'd for some time
before they were able to dispose of it
1t is supposed that they have been maxi
ing money, though at times they have
lost from their syndicate dealings.
The failure will reach undoubtedly
into the millions, though at present it
is impossible to make any approximate
estimate.
Wall street firms say the cause OF tho
failure was the result o: the efforts
made by the firm to squelch competitors
in the commission business with Euro
pean spectators without margin, and
at small commission. In the pork
deal last January the firm is said to have
sustained losses of 81, 600, 600 on this ac-
count It is estimated that the sum
total of nominal assets will reach ST.
$50, 900, among which are included the
81, 600, 600 lost in the pork deal.
