A BARGE CUT IN TWO.

DETROIT, Mich, July 17.-This evening
at 6:3O as the steamer City of Detroit, with
three excursion parties aboard was just
within the city limits, her steam steering
apparatus gave out in some unaccountable
manner and she veered about and ran into
the steam barge Kesota, owned in Cleve-
land, cutting her completely in two amid
ships. The kesota's cargo was iron ore
and it slid into the river, holding the sew
cred parts under water, leaving
the boat and stem above water
with the City of Detroit directly
over her Captain Flick and crew Of
seventeen were rescued by rowboats and
yachts that were in the vicinity of the
accident at the time. The mother, an
aged lady, name unknown, of the stewart,
was drowned, and the captains wife was
saved by a seaman diving after her as she
was sinking. A few of the excursionists
were slightly injured. There was no
panic. The damage to the City of Detroit
is placed at $4,000 The 'Kesota was
valued at $4,000 and is a total wreck

CENTRAL AMERICAN UNION.
The Negotiations Now Pending Between
the States.

NEW YORK, July IA letter has been
received in this city which gives the fol
lowing facts in regard to the change of
president in San Salvador and the death of
President MendOneZ. The letter is dated
Guatemala, July 6, and says:
'The situation of the Central Americans
at present is peculiar. The convention for
the union Of the states has been signed by
Honduras, San Salvador and Guatemala
while favorable report has been
received from the state of Costa
Rlca in regard to signing
1t. The convention will also be presented
TO Nicaragua next year, it being too late
this year as the senate has already met
Eyeta has sent word that he VIII agree to
every policy of the four other republic cX-
cept that upon the union of the states
This as it stands is almost an open declar-
alton of war and it remains to be seen
whether Guatemala and Honduras will en-
deaVor to make San Salvador live up to
the agreement.
'OE June % the president of San Saliva
dor was to give a review of the troops sta
toned at the capital and to give ball at
the palace in the evening in honor of the
fifth anniversary of his entering the capi-
tai under the banner Of the Liberal party
Everything passed off quietly during the
day, but in the evening, when the presi-
dent was dancing at the palace, the build
ing was surrounded by troops and an at
tack made upon it,
The president rushed to his private
room and seiZing his sword and pistol ran
TO the main entrance of the palace and fired
into the crowd Of soldiers in front. He
then stepped back and Immediately fell
dead in the arms of Tattendalo. The re
port was given out that he had died from
a stroke of apoplexy brought on by excite
ment, but this assertion is denied and it is
stated he was shot through the heart by
one of the soldiers.
General Eyeta then seized the palace
and issued a proclamation declaring
himself president but not mentioning
his party. In the attack upon the palace
eleven men were killed, among whom was
General Maroyal, son-in-law of President
MendoneZ. The latest news from there is
that everything is quiet.
General Eyeta, the president, was
raised by MendOnez from the post of a
petty officer to the governorship of Santa
Ana Several days before the rising Eyeta
came up to the capital with 1.5OO soldiers,
pretending that he was there to join in the
festivities. In making his arrangements
for the overthrow Of the government he
gave orders that MendOnez should not be
harmed

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July 1.-THE
Northwestern Miller says: The flour out
put last week was the heaviest since May.
The aggregate production was $4,000 bar
rels, against 73, 300 the week before, and
2,940 barrels for the the corresponding
week in 1889. Most everybody has more or
less orders ahead. These figures are to be
materially added to next week by several
of the very largest mills being got under
full headway. The -four market continues
strong but it is less active than for two
weeks past.
Bakers and low grades are in good de-
mand especially for export shipments and
could be sold far ahead if it was consider
ed safe to do so, but with orders enough
booked to keep their mills running all the
way from two to seven weeks, millers are
no longer willing to sell very freely of
these grades. Patents have dragged for
several days past. At the prices asked.
the domestic market is quiet; sales compar-
atively light.
