JOHN BULL NOT IN IT.
Has Nothing TO DO with the Mexican
G~uatemalan Mess.

Washington, March 20-Senor Rom
ero, the Mexican minister here, has en-
tered a formal denial of the accuracy
Of the published statement that the
trouble between Mexico and Guatemala
is due to the influence Of a British syn
dicate, which controls the Tehuante-
pee railway from fear of the competi-
ton of the Guatemala road. The min
lister asserts that the ~Tehuantepec rail-
way is not controlled by a Brit'~h syn
dictate, but Is owned by the ..exican
government; hat its natural advan-
tages are so pronounced hat the pro-
tected railroad cannot compete with 1t
successfully, and finally that a war
would only delay and would not pre-
vent the completion OF the new road.
1t would also appear. says the minister.
that British bondholders would have
much more to lose than to gain by Il
war which would tend to reduce the
value of their securities.
