Gq.eshGn1's telegram.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.-The United States
has exhausted all proper means of prevent
ing a hostile collision between Mexico and
Guatemala and the two countries must
settle their disputes without further re-
straint exercised by the United States.
Secretary Gresham's telegram to the Mex
lean Government expressing the hope of
the President that the matter might be
settled with reference to some friendly ma
ton has met with very fiattering reply
from the Mexican Government, but in sub
stance that the difference with Guatemala is
one that, owing to the attitude of that coun-
try, will not admit of arbitration. The in
ference is that Guatemala must either
promptly submit to Mexican terms of a
surrender of her claims to lands in dispute
on the boundary or fight.
In this state of the case nothing can be
done by our Government at present to
avert clash

A BLAST FROM THE NORTH.
It Set Waves Rolling in the Tule
Basin
Along the Sacramento RiVer-Only Hard
Work Saved the Railroad Tracks
From Being Washed Away.

WOODLAND, Jan. ga fierce wind came
sweeping down from the north on Sunday
morning, and it was not long before it be-
gan to make trouble for the railroad COM
pany.
The high wind set the waves to rolling
in the tule basin on the Suffer side, and
about 8 O'Clock Sunday morning word came
that the railroad was in danger.
A force of sixty men and construction
train was Immediately dispatched to the
scene. Roadmaster McCrabbe took charge
of the work of protecting the grade in per-
son. From point about a mile and a
half the other side of Knights Landing to
the long trestle the water was rolling in
immense waves, which struck the railroad
embankment with great force.
The rails and ties remained intact, but
holes were made in the grade. A large
number of sacks were purchased in Wood
land and elsewhere and a force of twenty
men were put work near the Woodland
depot filling these sacks. Seven thousand
sacks of dirt were dumped in the holes dur
ing the afternoon and Sunday night, and
at 8 o'clock this morning Mr.. McCrabbe
telegraphed to Sacramento that he would
be able to save the track and that pas
sengers could be transferred any time to-
day.
During the day 1000 sacks more of dirt
were used and it now seems probable that
the train will go through to Marysville to-
night.
1t also seems probable that the worst is
over and that the trains will run without
further interruption, but the company will
guard the track diligently until the water
subsidies, or at least whenever the wind
blows from the north.
RENO, New, Jan. %. = The mercury
dropped below zero last night. Trains
from the west are delayed on the other
side of the summit by a landslide. The
train due here last night has not yet ar
rived. 1t is expected between and 8
o'clock this afternoon.

AMONG FARMERS.

Geo. Anderson of Manltowoc Rapids
lately brought to market a load Of new
cut hay for which he received S27. The
hay was loose. 1t Was a "corker" of
load.
Hay1ng is about completed in this
county. VIM. Morgan says he has cut 20
tons of hay this year from land which
last year yielded 100 tons.
Thomas Mohr reports the hay crop in
his section as being tolerably fair.
The rain of Sunday night was local IN
its character. 1t rained heavily in Rock
land but Cato had none. Franklin was
favored but Kossuth was neglected.
Warm weather set IL on Monday last.
It will hurry up the rlpening of grain.
Rye has been cut throughout the
county. Barley will soon be in condition
to harvest.
The weather report for the week says
there were light frosts during the early
part Of the week in the western section
of the state. There were heavy rains in
northern aud southern counties. Com
plants of drCuth come in on every hand.
Potatoes are dong we'll and the hills are
well filled. Hay has been gathered in
excellent condition. The quality is IN
usually good. Barley is being harvested
and the quantity and quality are all that
could be desired. The oats crop is fine.
Pastures are almost wholly dead.
Charles Weinfurther of Mishicott
says that the quantity of milk is
decreasing. In three weeks the
quantity OF milk at his creamery

BASE BALL.

The Manitnwoc team found foemen
worthy OF their steel IN the Chiffon nine
on Sunday last The game was uucer-
tain up to its close and ended with a
score Of to ) in favor OF ManItowoc. 1t
was the best game of ball ever played In
this city anu it may be questle ned wheth-
er it ever was excelled by any amateur
team in tie state. People here thought
the home nine were being spoiled by the
ease with which they defeated all Corners
But they showed on Sunday that when
the need arises they are equal to the &C.
casioD.
The Chiffon nine are muscular lot of
young men and play with the GOODNESS
Of veterans. Both clubs were on their
mettle each being conscious that there
was 90 slight task ahead. The game
opened favorably to Chiffon, They scor-
ed tally 10 the second inning, another
in the fifth and two in the sixth. All the
others were blank. The MsnitowOcs did
not score until the fifth inning was reach
sd. They scored two runs IN the two
succeeding innings. Starr OF Chiffon
pitched a slow ball but it seemed hard to
find it. 1t was surprise to the Mantle
voc boys as thus far this season they
made sport OF tie pitchers they encount-
cred. They kept wonderfully cool
throughout the game, never became q
bit ratified and improved steadily. It
was their judgment, GOODNESS and lnteln-
xence which won the game. The triple
play made by Willie Torrison and George
Reuther required quickness and decision
and showed that the boys were using Their
heads as we'll as their hands. The Chill
ton boys shared the applause of the
spectators and 1t was well merlted.
Should this nine visit Manitowoc again
this season they Will draw the largest
crowd that the Park has vet had.
The following is the score:

The proposition to have special SEES
sion Of the Legislature to redistrlct the
state, If carried out at all, should be
without any hypocrltical pretense. If
the state is to be redistrictei the pur-
pose is to give the republican party tie
advantage. That fact Is well understood.
As politics now goes this Is not reprehen-
sible. The democrats did the best they
could to Increase the number OF safe
democratic districts. OF course it was
done in regular session and in regular
order. 20 call a special session is one Of
the extremes of partsanshIp; but the
party should face the issue boldly and
discard that miserable cant which de-
ceiyes no one while it makes human ma
ture appear disgusting. The man who
whines and calls his evil good should
have no standing IN any community.
