MEXICO MEANS FIGHT.
The Gaatemnian boundary Dispute
Nearing a Crisis.

Il
BOSTON, Oct. %. 1s94-A despatch
from the city of Mexico to the Tier

The dilatory conduct of Guatemala in
the matter of the disputed boundary
gives Mexico reasonable cause to sus-
pect some trick on the part of the willy
State at Guanajato all its local troops and
Mexican Government is pushing troops
down toward the frontier well provided
with war material and with cannon.
Troops are going South via. Acapulco,
Puerto, Angel and Vera Cruz The
Sixthx Infantry Regiment has been dis
patched to Agua-Azul, which is claimed
by Guatemala. This is a good fighting
regiment, and In case of war will give
an excellent account Of itself.
The Governors of the States of Ia
basco and Chiapas have acknowledged
the receipt of the arms which they re-
quested from the Federal Government.
The President has been offered by the
Stat at Guanajato all its local troops and
the use of all the money in the State
Treasury in case of war. The popularity
of General Diaz is shown to be great by
the disposition of al parties to support
him If war should be declared.
Guatemalan advices are contradictory.
There was atimber and dye-wood deal
involving in wrestling valuable terri
tory away from Mexico and now the
Guatemalan officials. Whatever Barrios
does, he will lose popularity. If he
fights, he will be awfully whipped, and
if he does not fight, his people viii
censure him for having got caught in a
very bad mess. Salvador would like
nothing better than to see Guatemala
we'll beaten by MEXICO, forg netwith-
standing Barrios is hand in glove with
dor, the Salvadorean people hate Guate-
T1lala with a deadly hatred.

SOCIALISTS FOR REVENUE.
The Frankford Congress HAS a
Wrangie Over Salaries.
Ru Gable to the United PreSS

FRANKFORT, Oct %, 1Ss4-The So
cialist Congress today debated the ques-
ton of the payment of official salaries.
Herr Bobel contended that it would not
be possible to pay able Socialists sal
aries below the market value of their
abilities. Well executed work was nee
essary and a high class of intellectual
labor should receive adequate remunera-
ton.
Several delegates replied, taking the
ground that the present salaries paid
by the organization to members of
were too high. The maximum, they be-
lieved, ought to be fixed at 5000 marks
a year, with view of putting stop to
a dangerous influx of educated mercen-
aries.
A heated debate ensued. Herr Legin
protested against the payment of high
salaries to Socialist officials, declaring
that the leaders had no right~to squan-
der reckiessly the pennies of the work
ingmen.
Herr Bobel retorted that if the Con-
gress fixed the maximum salary at
5000 marks a year the entire Socialist
administration would resign office. Prop
erly qualified editors, he said, could not
be obtained for that sum.
Before the debate began Herr Singer
read communications from leading So
cialists in Budapest, Madrid, and Vienna,
expressing hope that the Congress would
further strengthen the party. The f1nan-
cfal report was presented to the Congress
by Herr GeriSch

The tower is a very simple arrange

to the truck in such a manner as to
be placed in position against building

During the test a funny incident oc

cordtng to the Sulloon keepers tale,
Connors came into his saloon, bought
some beer, and left. A few minutes
after, Kenny, going to the door, noticed
Keegan coming towards the saloon.
When a few feet away Keegan dropped
to the ground in a fit. The saloon
keeper rushed to the man and assisted
in raising him up and helping him to
recover. Keegan walked off, and Ken
ny returned to his saloon to find his
money drawer on the floor and Sl65
IN cash and check for $32 gone. He
notified the police.
He didn't hear ANYTHING more of the
matter until a month or two ago when

others, had been sentenced to Snake

the audience, and shouted out, to the
surprise of the Court, There's the man
who had the fit.' Keegan was arrested,
and, with Smith and Connors, put on
trial this morning.
Before proceeding with the case Pros
ecutor Winfield said that a mob of peo-
pie were present to swear an alibi in

that they be excluded from the court
room during the testimony. Nc soon

telkeeper Eccles of the Oceanic, who
wore that Keegan was acting as his
oachman at the time of the robbery.

of the late William Afuirhead and Flavel
MCGEE. His term expired January. 1878,
and in the following May he became
the senior member of the firm of Bedle,
Muirhead & McGee. Mr.. Bedle was al
ways staunch supporter of the prin-
ciples of the Democratic party, and
When Grover Cleveland became Presi-
dent, in 1885, he offered Mr.. Bedie MS
choice between the Russian and Austrian
mission, at the same time intimating
that he would have appointed him a
member of the Supreme Court OF the
United States had it not been for the
fact that there was already member
OF the Court from New Jersey. Mr.
Bedle declined both missions.
When Governor Werts appointed the
Commission to revise the system OF
civil procedure in this State, in accord
ance with an Act of the last Legislature,
Mr.. Bedle was appointed one OF the
commissioners. He entered upon the du-
ties of the office with that same con-
sciousness of duty which characterized

side.
Judge William T. Hoffman, in a few
well chosen words, called the attention
of Judge Lippincott to the death of ex-
Governor Bedle, and the court adjourned
as a mark of respect to his memory.
In the Court of Chaneery the matter
was officially brought tot the attention of
Chancellor McGiIl, and that court also

SURVEYED TO HER HEART.

Pretty HSride.


Pretty Hsride.
Miss Estelle Dietz is the eighteen
year-old daughter of a wealthy property
owner of East White Plains, New York,
who, W to two years ago, never knew
what love was. Then handsome Otto
Won Luck. of Eoboken, was engaged
to lay out some land in building lots
on Mr.. Dietz's place, and 1t was not
long before he met the charming daugh-
ter. Instead of completing the work in
about six months, as he could easily
have done. he took just one year. The
other six months he was engaged in
making love to the fair Estelle. When
at last. there was no more land to be
laid out, he was highly complimented by
Mr.. Dietz for his excellent work, and
told that his services were no longer re-
quired, but that they were sorry to see
him go.
The lovers were loath to part, and
upon the suggestion of Miss Dietz, Otto
secured employment in the village. They
met very often, and soon were engaged
to be married. When Papa and Mama
Dietz heard of the engagement they be-
came enraged and forbade the young
people to meet again. They liked Otto
Well enough as an emp!oye, put as
son-in-law that was an altogether differ
ent matter.
Tears and pleadings made no i'm
preston upon the old people, and on
Friday night the young people came to
Hoboken and were married by Justice
of the Peace Harry Busch in their new
home at Garden and Third streets. Yes
terday Otto celebrated his marriage by
opening liquor saloon at Garden and
Second streets.
1t was reported that Won Luck was a
coachman in Dietz's employ, but the
groom denies the report, and says all
the ground there is for the story is the
fact that he and his wife often took
pleasure drives together.
sIf my parents-in-law visit me-" Mr.
Won Luck said, ''I will receive them
with open arms, and ! guess he will
soon be down to give US his blessing"
