THE cuATEMALAN REVOLT.

Thousand Men Marching Upon the
City-Still Executing Rebels.
Cry OF MEXICO, Oct. IA dis
patch received in this city from Mention
says that 1000 men, indifferently armed,
are marching from Guetezaltenango on
the City of Guatemala, which is still
under martial law and infested with
government troops, who will march out
to give battle to the insurgens army.
The work of executing the men who
took part in the recent revolt still con-
tinues. The only news of troubles in
Guatemala is either received by special
carrier to Mention. or by fleeing Guate-
malans, who are seeking the hospitality
OF the southern frontier of Mexico.
Thinks II Newspaper Romance.
PARIS, Oct. LIN an interview the
minister Of Guatemala to France said
that he was unadvised of fighting hav.
ing occurred in the City of Guatemala
or elsewhere in the republic, although
he had received dispatches from his gov
ernment since the 18th inst, the date on
which the riotipg In the City of Guate-
mala is alleged TO have begun. The
minister declared that he was in posi-
tion to deny the truth OF the report that
there had been muster or concentra-
tion OF troops of San Salvador on the
Guatemalan frontier. In concluding
the interview the minister emphatically
expressed his conviction that the re.
ported revolt and other rumors which
hinged upon it were newspaper inven-
tions.
why Baiz Discredits 1T.
NEW YORK, Oct. THE Guate-
malan consul general, Jacob Baiz, states
that General Sanchez was killed eight
months ago. The fact that the story of
a revolt in Guatemala mentions the
killing of Sanchez as one OF the events
on the 10Th discredits the whole story in
Mr.. Baiz's estimation.

LONDON, Oct. LA Berlin dispatch
says that the Austrian government has
notified the German kaiser's govern
ment that Austria, whether invaded OF

the arrangement between the members

actual invasion of territory to make it
necessary for all the members of the
alliance to join against the common
enemy, and should Austria attack q
Russian force advancing upon the Turk.
