CITY OF MEXICO, April 27.-Salvadorau
advices say that shortly after Gen. EZeta
takes command at Santa Anna exciting news
may be expected, for the men with him will
excite the GuateulalaDS, who are already IN
bad temper because Ezeta is coming to the
frontier, and these frictions will undoubt-
eddy produce war. for which the leaders of
both powers are thirsting, though the peo-
pie are tired of war. The overthrow of the
governments of Barillas and Ezeta will be
the result. Letters from the state Of Chi
apaS. on the frontier of Guatemala, say a
sad state of affairs exists in Guatemala.
Dissatisfaction is supreme against Barillas,
and only the want of d proper leader keeps
back revolution, which cannot be long de-
layed. ChiapanS and GuatemalanS are
natural enemies.
El Nacional, newspaper, bitterly attacks
the lntcroceanic railroad, and threatens to
publish pamphlet in English and Spanish
for circulation In Mexico, the United States
and Europe, attacking the road and General
Manager Delfin SandeZ But this is con-
sidered here as unwarranted ana revenge,
because this road is to be built to the Pa
cific coast, while the So-called Chamella
railroad, property of EsteVa, proprietor of
the FL Nacional, is unable to arrange loan
so far.
The government decided that ores smelted
here must. before exporting. pay tax to the
frontier smelling companies; but the gov
eminent remains firm.
Railroad building in the state of Chiapa
is progressing rapidly.
Experiments with petroleum found in
the state of Tabasco are very satisfactory.
The rumored contract for the improve
ment of the harbor at Vera Cruz is to be
transferred TO an American syndicate.
Gildardo Gomez, governor of the state of
Colima, is here and reports the state pro-
crossing commercially and agriculturally.
The state, however. which is making the
most rapid strides forward is San Luis Po-
tosi. under Governor Carlos Diez Gutierrez,
who has formed several mining and agri-
cultural syndicates in the United States for
the state.
The Monterey and Gulf railroad is rapidly
closing the gap to Tampico, which will
then be the most important port on the
gulf.
Delfin Sarchez, general manager of the
Interoceanic railroad, expects war in Eng
land to arise for continuing the road to AGA
pulco. The rivalry between the Mexican
and 1nteroceanic railroads continues, but
every advantage is with the 1nteroceanic,
which is favored by the people and the
Mexican lowered tariffs too late.
President Daz and wife returned yester-
day from trip over the Interoceanic rail-
road.
President General Manuel Gonzales is
now at Chapmyo and has entirely retired
from politics.
Gen. Pacheco is so i'll that physicians
have been sent from here.
Blum, BleichrGder's agent, leaves
shortly for Europe and appears to
think that the time is unpro-
pitious for arranging loans. The gov
eminent says, however, that it has no
need of loan, as it has an abundance of
money, especially with the new budget and
commercial outlook in Mexico never better.
Reporter Islas, chief Federal telegrapher,
who has made himself obnoxious to every
one by his brutal manners, will be removed.
The Two Republics, newspaper, doubts
whether Louis Huller will be able to give
the promised $l50,0O0 to the Chicago fair.
Clements statement to the Chicago press
about Huller contained several untruths.
