COLORADO REPUBLICANS.
Features Of the Silver Plank Adopted by the
State Convention

GLENwooD SPRINGs(Colo. Sept. 3o.-The
Republican State Convention met at noon
yesterday. There being no opposition to
Chief Justice Joseph G. Helm, his nomina-
ton was made unanimous. The platform
heartily indorses the administration of
President Harrison, while not agreeing with
him ON the coinage of silver; favors pro tee
ton against every form OF convict or seryile
labor; denounces trusts and combines. The
silver plank declares the characterization Of
silver by the United States was a stupendous
blunder, and that bimetallism Is necessary
to the welfare and prosperity of all CONNER
cial people; demands the full recognition of
silver as money metal, by the opening Of the
MINIS Of the United States to the full and
unlimited coinage OF silver, and believes
such step will be followed by considerable
number of nations, and that such course
will establish the ratio of silver and gold
existing at the time of decentralization.
1t denounceS the pretense now being
made in certain sections that friends of free
coinage are the advocates of a debased cur
rency as untrue, and, on the contrary, assert
that there can be no stable currency based
upon either gold or silver alone. It demands
the use of both silver and gold as money at
q ratio fixed by law, and that all paper
money shall be redeemable In gold or silver,
at option by the Government. and that thus
every dollar, whether gold silver or paper,
shall be OF equal paying or purchasing
power.
The convention also adopted a resolution
asking the National Committee to select
Omaha as the place for holding the next
National Convention.

GUATEMALA'S REVOLT.
Officials Claim It to Be Only a BarillaS
Scheme.

ST. LOUIS. Sept. photographic advices
received this morning from the City of
Mexico say: A dispatch was received in
this city from Newton late Tuesday after
noon which says 1000 armed men are march
ing from Quezaltenango on the city of
Guatemala, which is still under martial law.
Quezaltenango is lis miles west northwest
from Guatemala, and has population of
about 10000.
The work of executing the men who took
part in the recent revolt still continues at
Guatemala. 1t is rumored in Guatemala
that Toledo, President Barrillas' Private
Secretary, who left that city few days ago
on Government mission, was assassHated
while en- route, as nothing has been heard OF
him.
CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 3O.-A Guatemala
dispatch says that prominent Government
officials assert that the rising was of little
impOrthnce; that all the rebels in the
republic do not number 500 and are mostly
Sllvadoran refugees.
A dispatch from Mention, on the Mexican
Guatemalan frontier, says the so-caled
revolution is a farce, gotten up by Barillas
that he may make himself dictator and
declare war against Salvador.

THE STORY DENIED.
Recent Arrivals From Guatemala Say NJ
Revolt Occurred.

Recent Arrivals From Guatemala Say No
Revolt Occurred.
General Barrios, who is candidate to
succeed Barrillas as President of Guate-
maa. was seen at the Occidental last night
and denied most emphatically that any up
rising had taken place in Guatemala as re-
ported from the City of Mexico.
~ spent the evening"" he said, with
three gentlemen who arrived here to-day
from San Jose de Guatemala on the steamer
City OF Sydney. They ara Daniel Fuenter.
z. Morales and Manuel Ugarte. The first
is an engineer and the latter is the agent OF
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company at
Champerico. All three are gentlemen of
the greatest reliability and are well informed
in all matters relating to affairs In Guate-
maa
Il was told by Mr. Morales that he and
Mr.. Fuenter were IN Guatemala City on the
l4th. 10Th and 10th of this month, and that
ou the 18th they went to Guatemala, where
they embarked on the City of Sydney for
this port. Up to the time Of their sailing no
disturbance of any kind had occurred, and
the reports that have come from the City OF
Mexico must, therefore, be absolutely un-
true. If you will notice closely you will
observe that there is discrepancy in the
telegraphic dispatches as regards the date
of the alleged revolt. In one instance it is
given as September 14th and in another as
the 10Th. Inc latter IS the udLe OIL Gual6-
malan independence. ANY trouble arising
over the appointment Of orators would quite
naturally occur on that day. Now, here are
two gentlemen just arrived from there,
whose standing is beyond question, and both
deny most positively that any disturbance
has occurred. That, 1t seems to me, would
dispose of the matter entirely, and would
show that the City of Mexico dispatches
have been manufactured out of whole cloth.
in the dispatches it is stated also that
General Sanchez was killed 10 the streets of
Guatemall City short time ago by Gen.
eral Colon. That, too, is entirely wrong.
G~neral Sanchez was killed by Colon in
February, and the fact was telegraphed to
this country at that time. What did occur
re emily was the outgrowth of that affair.
A brother of Sanchez has been hunting for
Colon ever since, and Mr.. Morales tells me
that they met on the plaza at Guatemala on
the 18th inst. Whep Sanchez caught sight
of Colon he drew'a revolver and shot the
latter TO DEATH"
In discussing his own chances for the
Presidency, Mr.. BarriOs said that he had
been assured by President Barillas that at
the expiration Of the latter's term of Office
he would step down and out and had no de-
sire to continue in power. This. General
Barrios thought. would assure his election

A LEGAL POINT.
Dispute Over the Custody Of a
Prisoner.
Difference Of Opinion Between Warden
Hale and Justice Troy.
Baker, the San Quentin Convict Charged
With Murder, Committed to the
Care Of the Sheriff.
Epscial to THE MORNING CALL.

SAN RAFAEL, Sept 9O.-Quite an interest
ing conflict of authority occurred between
Warden Hale of San Quentin Prison and
Justice of the Peace Troy, during the pre-
Hminary examination of "Dutchy" Baker,
charged with murder. The bone of con-
tentiOn was as to the power of the Justice
to remand the prisoner, an Inmate Of the
State Prison. charged with the crime of
murder, into the custody of the Sheriff.
Considerable argument was exchanged be-
tween the Judge and Warden Hale but the
Judge remained steadfast and held that
the Sheriff was the proper custodian of the
prisoner.
This morning Warden Hale reached San
Rafael He appeared to be greatly excited
over the action of the Judge AMI Ncame
armed with the opinions of Clerk Ellis and
Captain Edgar of the prison, who have had
considerable experience in the ways of the
law, Clerk Ellis having served in the
District Attorneys Office and Captain
Edgar having held the Office of Sheriff for
several years.
Under his left arm the Warden carried
bulky volume of the Pena! Code. Numerous
paper-markers protruded from between the
leaves, and when he made his onslaught on
Judge Troy the Judge was overwhelmed by
the vast number of sections quoted The
Warden claimed that Justice Troy had no
right to order the accused prisoner. Baker.
into the custody of the Sheriff pending his
examination on the charge of murder; also,
that in the event that the prisoner was held
to answer any order made by Troy commit
ting the defendant to the custody of the
Sheriff would be invalid, as the justices
Court was not court of record and without
q seal, that being the function of the Su-
perior Judge. The Warden further con-
tended that the Justice had no right to take
witnesses from San Quentin Prison for the
same reasons.
Justice Troy held, quoting Sections SI2
and 1867 II the Penal Code: That any Wit
neSses confined in San Quentin must be
produced upon the Justice execut-
ing an order for their appearance
and that should the prisoner be held to
answer before tbs Superior Court, an order
entered upon his docket to that effect and
committing him to the Sheriff custody would
be sufficient, no order of commitment OF
Superior Judge being necessary, The JUS
ton of the defendant, Baker, the Sheriff
was the proper custodian, and not the San
Quentin Offi -ials.
The prisoner was again ordered into the
custody Of the Sheriff, where he will re-
main until he is either discharged or ad-
judged guilty.
j. n. Z. Wilson. attorney for the San
Quentin officials, who happened TO be pres
ent, indOlsed the action OF Justice Troy, he
claiming that the prisoner was county
criminal, aud consequently under the Iurls-
dictiOn Of the county officials.
