THE TERMS
UPON WHICH GUATEMALA AND MEXICO
 DECLARE IT SQUARE.

 UPON WHICH GUATEMALA AND MEXICO
 DECLARE IT SQUARE.
 NEW YORK, April 9. - The Herald's special from the City of Mexico says: The government publishes today the details of the settlement between Mexico and Guate- mala. The government of Guatemala de- clares that, thinking 1t had the right to do so, it has exercised acts of sovereignty in the territory of West Sacantum and it has not intended to offend Mexico. Neverthe- less, for the sake of harmony, Guatemala agrees, through feeling of justice, to pay any indemnity to. Mexico for damages done by her occupation of territory and for the destruction of property. The arbitrator, to be appointed by common accord, will fix the amount of the Indemnity. Mexico desists from her claim of indemnity for ex- penses of mobilizing troops on the Guate, mala frontier owing to the occupation of logging camps on ihe West Laeantum river by Guatemalan agents. Guatemala con sents to the immediate patton of that portion of the disputed territory already decided by tDth surveying commissions to belong to Mexico. On the other hand, Mexico agrees to do the same concerning the territory declared to belong to Guate- mala. h cases where the surveyors dis agree the mean between the two surveys IS to be accepted.

STAR CHAMBER SESSION.

Selma JournaI,
 What seems to be well grounded rumor is current upon the streets to the effect that caucus composed of six members of the new city council, some of whom are not yet elected, and & number of politi- cians held a star chamber meeting in an up stairs room in the Hotel Albert few nights since, and made up slate of city officials. The rumor says that city clerk city tax collector, market clerk, chef of named.
 Such action is, to say the least, undemo- cratic, and it is to be hoped that the rumor Is untrue.

GROSS TIES AND PASSENGERS.

Selma Journal.
 The mail train due from Montgomery at Il o'clock this morning reached the city an hour late. The delay was occasioned by stopping along the line to distribute cross ties and unload bridge tmbers. This is hard on the passengers and business men of Selma who have to wait impatiently for the arrival of the mails, and is a fit case for consideration of the railroad commission. |. Four hours consumed by the only day mail and passen ger train between two important cities only forty leigh miles apart is enough to call forth protest from the public.
