LIVELY TIMES IN CENTRAL AMERICA.
GENERAL MIRANDA DEFEATED IN SALVADOR
TWO REVOLUTIONS ON BOOM IN
GUATEMALA.

City of Mexico, Aug. z, via Galveston.-A Sal
vader dispatch says: General Miranda, an ac-
complice of the traitor Rivas, and Commandant of
the forces of Ayala who aspires to the Presidency
of Salvador has been routed, and Salvador is now
free from manudng bands. The diplomatic
corps has made proposition looking to peace
though when asked if offers would be accepted in
favor of peace, General Ezeta answered in the
affirmative
special cipher dispatch from Guatemala saws
"Revolution is increasing. General hungary the
revolutionist who captured Chiqumula, has in
creased his forces by large numbers of deserters
from the Salvadorian ranks. Dissatisfaction
reigns supreme, and the fight of President Bar
rillas is looked for at any moment General Bar
rundia has started revolution in the northern
part of Guatemala invading Guatemala from San
BentOna and taking large force of Guatemalan
refugees who have been in Mexico"
Francisco Zuleuta has been appointed Consul
General of Salvador in this city, but the Mexican
Government has not yet recognized the present
government of Salvador.
Reports received here stated that Guatemala
has requested Costa Rca and Nicaragua to
negotiate treaty of peace with Salvador. This
officially denied but dispatch to a press
agency, received later than the foregoing, says
that the Guatcmalan negotiations for peace are in
progress and will undoubtedly be concluded before
the end of the week 1t is believed that peace
honorable to both Guatemala and Salvador will
be arranged
San Francisco, Aug. IA private letter from
San Salvador, dated July 90, has just been re
ceived here. The letter states that the ex-Min-
lister of the Interior of Salvador, who was seized
By the Salvadorian soldiers on the steamer
Acapulco at La Libertad escaped the next day
and boarded the steamer Starbuck at La Libertad,
bound South. At Awaaila the fugitive was
transferred to the Pacific Mail steamer City of
Panama. At La Union, port in Salvador, the
soldiers attempted TO board the steamer TO search
her. Captain Clark commanded them to disaIn
before coming board and would not allow
them TO take any passengers off. The soldiers
retired, and Captain Clark made the firm
stand at two other ports. The fugitive was finally
landed safely at Acapulco where he probably took
the next steamer for the United States.
Domingo Estrada, the Guatcm0lan COnsul-(1en-
eral at this city, has received q dispatch from
the Guatemalan Minister ar the City of Mexico,
stating that General hungary, the leader Of the
revolt against Barrillas, has been routed by the
Guatemalan troops at Palo Gran Eyta The Vice
President of Salvador has organized Government
in Salvadoran territory in opposition to that Of
Ezett, and is being aided by General Miranda, one
Of the most important men Of the Republic.
The dispatch also stated that Ezeta had shot many
people in connection with Rivas's movement,
among whom were many important personages
in Salvador.

AN OUTBREAK OF CONVICTS.
PLOTTING A GENERAL DELIVERY FROM
CHARLESTOwN PRISON
REBELLION AGAINST THE NEW SYSTEM OF
MEASUREMENT - SETTING ONE OF THE
BUILDINGS on FIRE-sooN sUBDUED,
[Dr TELEGRAPH TO THE TKrBUsE.l


Boston, Aug 7-There was a lively scene at tho
State Prison in Charlestown this afternoon about
O'Clock. A desperate plan TO wholesale prison
delivery was planned some time ago. and was carried
out to-day, far it was possible, on the part Oh
the consplrators 1t would have proved successful,
but for the coones foresight and prudence OF Warden
Z. j. Russell. This official had an inkling OF the
coming storm days ago. and to-day he made arrange
mens with the lieutenant in charge of the nearest
police station to give him assistance promptly, In case
of outbreak.
At O'Clock the convicts at work in the harness
shop broke out into terrible shouting, yelling and all
sorts OF dsorerly noises They began to smash every
thing that they could lay their hands on AS soon as
the first shout went up, Warden Russell sisnalled the
police station. Within four minutes about hfty ponce
men, armed with revolvers and clubs, marched into
the prison yard, and sxord telcploned to other
stations in Boston and 100 policemen Joined the first
detachment.
one Of the leaders of the revolt, Walter Evans
one of the burglars, known as the Albany-st gang
who were imprisoned year ago, fired revolver al
three prison officers, but missed his mark. Warden
Russell when the revolt broke out i'm
medatcly rushed to the harnessshop and tod
the men who were not implicated In tic
riot that they woud be protected, and ordered them
TO their cells There in the prison, all told, o94
prisoners In an incredibly short period, seventy-fve
of the insurgents had been marched to the dungeons
Here there were only tlrty-tWo ccs Dut ,he seventy
five men were forced TO accommodate themselves IN
narrow quarters. They will be kept there in the
dark and fed bread and water for several days as
a punishment. and several Of them will have their
terms of imprisonment extended
Before the men could be locked mp they had SET
fire to the haruessshop in the expectation that, when
the gates were opened for the engines to enter tnSy
wouid make eslnd break for liberty. But thelr
plans did not work WELL for the fire was extngulshed
without the aid Of the engines. -, -
The trouble dates from the time when me new
system of obtaining aid recording descriptions oi
the prisoners was put In force
