SAN SALVADOR, via La Libertad, Aug.
6.-Four more battles have been fought
by the Salvadorians against the Guate-
malan troops within the territory of
Guatemala.
Eighteen hundred soldiers under the
Salvador General Santiago Coutreras
made an attack on the artillery of
General Cayetano Sanchez, with IN
equal number of Guatemalan troops,
about thirty-five miles from MAtaques-
cuintlA, in the department Of Santa
Rosa, about forty eight miles from the
capital city of Guatemala.
Owing to the apparent inaction Of
the Salvador army during the past few
days, General Sanchez had been recalled
to the capital of Guatemala to arrange
for fortifying that city, and Colonel
Manuel Barreaa was left in charge.
Barrera and his troops were surprised
by the Salvadorians and retire ated with
loss of nearly 400 men and nine
pieces of artillery, including one
heavily mounted 18-pound Krupp gun.
Colonel Barrera had his leg shot off
and was otherwise seriously injured,
SO that 1t is not believed that he will
recover.
The Salvador troops lost nearly q
hundred men, but, elatsd with their
victory, they continued to pursue the
enemy toward Mataquescuintla, where
they have their stronghold.
At daylight the Guatemalan troops
had been reinforced by additional
troops from the capital under General
Gabriel Burbano, formerly chief of
President Barillas' staff.
General Contreras saw the Guatema-
Ian retnforcements coming along about
four miles away, and hastily rallying
the Salvadorians he hastened to make
another attack on the disabled troops
of Barrera. The attack was successful,
and the Guatemalan troops beat a hasty
retreat till they came up with Bur-
bano's forces.
Two more pieces of artillery was cap
tured by the victorious Salvadorians.
The Guatemalan troops now num-
bered close upon $500 men, and the
SalvadoriRns seeing themselves some
what outnumbered made a strategic
movement toward little village called
Santa Barbara, captured the place with
out encountering any resistance, threw
up earth works, entrenched themselves
in the city and despatched couriers for
reinforcements to the Salvador frontier
where telegraphic communication
could be obtained.
The result in the end is two complete
victories for the Salvador troops, who
are now firmly established on Guate-
malan territory, within forty miles
from the capital of Guatemala.
The principal Salvador troops, num-
bering 5000 men under Generals Marti-
nez and Antonio Ezeta, invaded the De-
partments Jutiaps and Chiuimula
against Generals Solares and Teliez,
defeating them in two battles with
heavy loss.
The troops are now located Oh the
boundary line between three two de-
partments, about SO miles from the
Salvador frontier.

Former Queen.
LONDON, Aug. 5.-The publication by
ex-Queen Natalie of Servia of the story
of the divorce proceedings brought
against her by King Milan, together
with an account Of the fragrant con-
duct of her husband with Nine Christ
ich, has greatly exasperated Milan, who
Is endeavoring to find some means of
retaliation.
Natalie also scores the subservient
Metropolitan who granted the divorce
in spite of the fact that the evidence
was wholly in favor of herself, and the
probabilities are that another attempt
will be made to exclude the ex-Qusen
from Servia before she gets ready to
leave on her contemplated visit to
Russia, whore, it is understood, she
will take up her permanent residence.
1t Is stated that Milan's excuses have
greatly impaired his health and alien
