Another Shake-Up.

From dispatches received on the eth
it is learned that Gen. Julio Garcia
Granadas, Col. Manuel Rubio and Vim
cente Martinez are at the head of a
number of dissatisfied Guatemalans
on the Guatemalan Mexican frontier
who are preparing for revolution
against President Barrillas, of Guate-
mala. Col Rubio is Barrilas' deadli-
est Zoe. 1t is claimed that the revolu-
tionists have force Of 900 men ready,
and that they have received many
promises Of assistance. They say that
unless Mexico interferes the revolution
will break out in a few days, and that
they count on aid from sympathizers in
the interior of the country. They
bought arms recently, both here and in
the United States.

Gov. Boies Reelected - Repu leans
Claim the Legislature.

Gov. Boies Reelected Repu blicans
Claim the Legislature.
Dies MONIES, Ia, Nov. 4.-Chairman
Mack, of the Republican committee
comedies Boies' election by 5000 plu-
rality, but claims the election of the
balance of the state ticket, except rail
road commissioner, for the Republicans;
also both houses of the legislature.
Chairman Fuller, of the Democratic
committee, claims all the state offices,
but comedies the Lower House and SAYS
the Senate is in doubt.
Fifty counties complete IN Iowa out of
a total of SO in the state give Boies
(Dem.) for governor plurality over
Wheeler of I ,4SS. The same counties in
1889 gave Boies plurality of 1862,
making a net gain this year of 1926.
The remaining counties gave Boies in
1889 plurality of 1861.
In the Lower House the Republicans
have gained Audubon, Adair, Adams,
Boone, Decatur, Floyd, Poweshiek and
Kossuth, the Democrats gain Marion,
OBrien and Sioux. The parties were
equally divided two years ago and
the Republicans will therefore have
a clear majority. The Senate is con-
coded to be Democratic by one or two
votes. The Farmers Alliance candidate,
Westfall, for governor, received about
$4,000 votes in the state. The Alliance
carried one county for governor, Mono
ma, one for representative, Montgom-
cry, and the Montgomery Mills sena-
torial district. The Prohibition vote
has not been reported, except in few
instances, but it is probably very light.

The American Legation at Santiago 4
Danger of an Attack.

The American Legation at Santiago in
Danger of an Attack.
SANTIAGO, Chill, Nov. THE news
papers here have for several days been
publishing wild stories about conspiracy
among the refugees at the American lega-
ton to kill Gen. Canto. A notice was circu-
lated calling for meeting Of people in the
plaza to denounce the conspiracy. Mr..
E4an, the United States minister,
informed the Junta that threats had
been made to attack the United States
legation and to capture the refu-
gees, and he warned the Junta that
it would be held responsible for such ac-
ton. Later in the day several thousand
men assembled in the plaza and applauded
several incendiary speeches in which the
supposed conspiracy and the United States
legation were denounced. The Junta,
upon receiving Mr.. Egan's letter. sent
q troop of cavalry to guard the
United States legation, and as the meeting
in the plaza closed, the iGtendeDte pub
lished a notice, saying that the stories of q
conspiracy were devoid Of foundation.
Serious trouble was doubtless averted by
this notice, although the government did
nothing to prevent trouble until receiving
Mr.. Egan's protest.
An enormous crowd of excited people
surrounded the hall while the votes were
being counted and large squads of police
had all they could do to keep order.

More About the Famine.

The governor of the province OF
Nijni-Novgorod declares that through
out that province all supplies OF
provisions have been exhausted,
that the peasants will soon be
without food, and that l.
100000 pools of grain will be re-
CURED, the greater part of which must
be imported. The difficulty Of trans
portation will render the giving of time
ly help almost impossible. The COM
mander of the Trans-Caspian army
corps has ordered that all fragments left
by the soldiers be made into biscuits
and sent to the famine districts. Many
notables and members Of the foreign
colonies in Moscow are contributing
freely to the famine fund.
The governor of Simbirsk is suppress
ing corn riots with heavy hand. Rioters
are sentenced to receive 500 lashes, and
it is reported that three offenders have
died while such punishment was being
inflicted.
The Moscow Gazette demands the
formation of ministry of agriculture,
which, it sets forth, would prevent con-
t1lctlng policies leading TO famine.

eyesight mas long been defective, and
the condition of his eyes is now critical.
The sight of one eye has been
temporarily lost and that of the other is
threatened. Sir William will undergo
an operation at the hands Of an
oculist, from which it is hoped
that he will derive great
benefit. It is not thought probable,
however, that his sight will be suffi-
GENTLY improved to enable him to as
sumo the leadership of his party in
