with the greatest interest the dispatches
from the City of Mexico, and then said:
There cannot be ai.y truth in the re.

such Importance quiet so long. If there
had been an outbreak in Guatemala
September 18th, as the dispatches say,
we would have known it here within a
few days later. My country has been
opened to modern improvements.
There are telegraph lines in many di-
rections from the capital, and telephones
as well. 1t is easy to communicate with
San Salvador, and from there to send
messages to this country. l must say
that do not believe anything that is
contained in the dispatch, and would
not even if the date did not make it
ridiculous. ! know my countrymen,
and it is not like them to lose their

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.--A Valparaiso
cable says it is not generally believed
the evidence of the feeling towards
Americans will be kept up except on the

imical to the people of the United States
The firm attitude of the United States
will stop any nonsense, especially if the
firmness is backed by the presence of q

Low Prices For Hons.

SPRINGFIELD, Oct. 1.-The price for
the now crop of hops has been forced
down to 121a cents per pound. But the
New England Homestead gives reason
for believing this is an artificial depres-
sion, and that growers should get be-
tween 10 and 20 cents. Prominent
among the reasons for an advance is a
shortage in the Pacific Coast states,
Washington's crop being only half the
enormous production estimated in the
earlier reports.

days past there has been raging on
"Georgetown divide in Eldorodo

experienced in California. The fire

famed by strong, north wind, has
swept over almost the entire stretch of
country between Georgetown and Sal
mon Falls. Farmhouses, barns, fences,
ETC., have been destroyed. 1t is be-
lieved that thirty or forty families have
lost everything they possessed, barely
escaping with their lives The little
mining town of Pilot Hill was literally
wiped from the face of the earth. The
fire passed over a section of country
twenty-five mile in length and twenty
miles wide. 1t is not known that there
has been any loss OF life, but there were
many narrow escapes.

Fell Into a Boiling Vat.

HELENA, Sept. 30.-Edward Mcmahon,
employed in the mill at the Champion
mine near Deer Lodge, fell into vat of
hot pulp today and was frightfully
burned. How he managed to retain
consciousness long enough to climb out
of the seething cauldron is marvel. No
one was near at the time and his cries
were drowned by the noise of the mach
inery. At late hour this evening he
was still alive, but the chances of re-
eovery are very slim.
