on-Commi;tal.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-From urefileial
terms of the agreement by which war be-
tween Mexico aud Guatemala was ayerted
are substantially known. Msxico's do
mands were in the form OF an ultimatum
sent by Secretary Mariscal on Nov. "a,
1894, embracing the following points;
Mexico asks satisfaction for injuries re-
ceived by the invasion Of her territory and
for the vexations which foreigners ana
Mexicans cutting wood in the forests OF
Aqua Azul, Egipto, San Nicholas and San
Pedro, and the Mexican residents OF
Ayutla, have been the object.
Mexico also demands IA pecuniary in
demnity for the damage sustained

Mexico asks that the labors Of the
boundary commission, in accordance with
the treaty Of 1882, be speedily concluded,

On Jan. 12, Guatemala answered the ul-
timatum. IL was pacific In tone. but did
not concede Mexiccys right TO the territory
designated in the ultimatum, nor the
right OF n tixod cash indemnity. The final
negotiations are compromise between

from $50, 900 To s70 900, and they are still

little visible property. His home in Fox.
