BARBARiANS.

Desperate Battle between Govern ment
Troops and RevolutiHnists In Honduras
Governments Troops Defeated Prisoners
Slaughtered "A Reign of Terror.
PANAMA, Colombia, March S0.-A dis
sstrous battle has been fought near
Tatumbla, Honduras, resulting in the
routing of Gen Alfonso Villelas, who
had been sent to the front with large
body of government troops to intercept
the march of the revolutionists, who
were moving against the capital at
Tegucigalpa-
Tatumbla had been occupied by the
troops under Gen Terrencia Sierra,
who commands the south wing of the
revolutionary army. In connection
with the east wing of the revolutionary
forces, commanded by Gen. Reyna,
Gen Sierra was leading the advance on
Tegucigalpa- The west wing under
Gen Reyna was four miles in the rear.
Reyna's troops were pushed rapidly
to the front, Col Manuel Rosas with
two companies leading the advance.
The battle had begun SO late in the day
that firing had to be suspended on &C
count of darkness when Col Rosas' de-
tachment arrived to relieve the be-
sieged army in Tatumbla-
Gen Villelas' forces fell back a short
distance and waited for the following
day to renew the attack, when a flank
movement upon Gen Villelas was de-
cided upon Five hundred Texigant
braves were detached from the east
wing and with Gen Reyna himself at
their head occupied height to the left
of the position held by Gen Villelas'
army.
Gen Villelas renewed his attack up
on the revolutionist at daybreak and
the battle was soon raging all along
the line. AS soon as the attack in
front became general Gen. Reyna and
his Texigaut braves opened fire on
Villelas' forces in the rear This
was so fierce and surprising that
the government troops were al
most demoralized The fire in front
and rear ragged on for an hour and a
half The government forces could
stand it no longer and Gen. Villelas or
dered retreat Not more than fifty
soldiers of Villelas' followed him in the
retreat With this small force he fed
toward La Montanita Small bands
He'd in other directions hotly pursued
By the revolutionists, who killed as
many IS they could while fleeing
When the fight was over all who had
been captured were slaughtered, no
prisoners being retained to be cared
for. More than 100 government soldiers
fell in the battle and fully one-half as
many revolutiOnists were killed The
bodies of all who fell on each side were
gathered in a heap and burned
Anarchy, terror and despair are ram
pant in Tegucigalpa- The persons and
property Of those suspected of sympa-
thizing with the revolution are not re-
specSd. Wives and children of absent
revomtiouists have been imprisoned
and subjected to frightful tortures.

BECAUSE OF THE TARIFF.
President Cleveland Determined on Hsv
ing an Extra session of Congress

President Cleveland Determined on Hav-
ing an Extra session of Congress
WASHINGTON, March 80 To a few
congressman who have talked with him
on the subject, Mr. Cleveland has init
mated that he Will call an extra session
of congress to dispose of the tariff ques-
ton. No definite time has been set,
but the session will begin either in Sep
TENDER or October. Beyond the decision
TO call the extra session the matter has
progressed no further and it has not
been decided whether any other mat
tiers will be especially urged on con-
gress
Representative Springer, of Illinois,
chairman of the committee on ways
and means, which is charged with the
preparation of the tariff bills, was
questioned to-day relative to the time
it would take to enact a new
tariff bill He said it would be i'm
possible for congress to enact any
measure of the kind wanted earlier
than May if the subject were consid
cred at the regular session beginning
in December. An extra session would,
of course, bring the matter to a settle
ment much quicker, as it met in ad-
vance of the regular session, and would
give the people a fair opportunity to

Gratis will insist upon having the rules
with regard to appointments published
before they cast their votes--St- Louis

= Most of the reputation Pres ident
Cleyeland enjoys as an anti-machine

stance that he insists on being the ma
chinist--Chicago Tribune.

the same view that Mr.. Cleveland
now takes about giving Office to men
who drew governmental salaries under
the last democratic administration, a
certain typical American" would still
be only New York lawyer.-Albany
Journal
aA great many good democrats
are beginning to fear that Cleveland is
sincere enough in his civil service re-
form professions to cause trouble and
distress. Yet they have hope, for if
they took him at his word they would
all go home and wait to be called
Minneapolis Tribune.
In taking the ground that offices
ought to be held during the next four
years by men who did not enjoy them
during his former administration
President Cleveland practically de-
clares that public Office is reward for
political services, and that the new
workers must come in now for their
share of the spoils for which all have
Iabored-- Leader.
9The news that Mr.. Cleveland has
become tangled up in the senate COM
mittees is calculated to produce grief
and redness of the nose. And yet what
were we to expect? Mr.. Cleveland
started out, even before the Inaugural
ton, To boss the senate through few
state legislatures, and this IS the logi-
cal result We look 70 see much fun
and fur in the bear pit, and large bald
spots on Grover.-N. y. Advertiser.
HGrover Cleveland and all his sec
retaries are working the old scheme to
evade the civil service law by deereas-
ing the number of clerks ito reduce

numeraries will be increased in every

Secretary Carlisle Is reported to
be preparing financial plan to submit
to congress at the next session that
would involve "a complete reorganiza-
ton of our financial system" One fea-
ture OF the plan IS said to be the issue
of currency under state charters, but
still kept very closely under the gener-
al supervision of the federal govern
ment That is the sort of talk we had
in 1855, when Cleveland began his first
term But TO improve on republican
craftsmanship was found to be impos-
sible for democrats The same result
will follow the present boast The
democratic party will either injure the
governmental financial system, or
leave it as it is--Toledo Blade

RETRENCHMENT AND REFORM
The Democratic Method of Handling the
Nations Finances.

Nations Finances.
Horace Greeley's dictum that the
way to resume specie payments was to
resume, has passed into a proverb in
this country. 1t is well to make par
aphrase OF it at the present time and
to point out to the democratic party
that the way to reduce government ex-
penditures is to reduce them The
democratic party is now in supreme
and unquestioned control of the fed
eral government and at perfect lib
erty to carry out all the schemes of re-
trenchment and reform of VIII ich it has
talked so much while out of power.
If we may judge the future career of
recent democratic house of repre-
sentatives, there will be nothing ac-
complished in the way of redusing ex-
penditures- There will be an appro-
priation refused here and there, gen.
orally without any regard 70 necessity
or equity, but the grand army Of Office
holders will not be reduced by a single
one, nor will salaries be cut down
The white house has already been
d1SdOALC0 " 81 - "a O--4IC =
and ii e scramble has only just begun
Many of these patriots have claims
upon the party that cannot be ignored,
and they must be taken care of. no
matter how much it costs the people of
the United States. Having this in
mind we find Secretary Hoke Smiths
paper asking whether the revenues Of
the government are now sufficient To
meet the expenses imposed by what it
is pleased to call republican extrava-
gance, which sounds we'll in view OF
the record of the congress which has
just adjourned, in which the demo-
cratic party held the purse strings
with an enormous majority in the
house
We venture to predict that the demo
cratic party will increase expenditures
instead of reducing them, and that
every time it does so it will try to con-
eeal its own extravaganza by fling at
the republican party. Democrats do
not want TO cut down expenditures
They want TO talk about il, but IN re-
ality thew want to find or make
salaried places enough so that every
one Of the faithful, who IS too ineom-
petsnt or too iIdolent to work for a
living. may have one--San Francisco
Chronicle.
