OFF TO THE WAR.
The Fourth Battalion of Mexi-
can Infantry
Sent From the City of Mexico to
Acapulco
TO TAKE SHIPPING
For the Invasion of the Guate-
malan Republic.
Mexican People Enthusiastic for
the War.

CITY OF MEXICO, Jan. 2S.-The fourth
battalion of infantry is making prepare
tions to move from this city, its OBJ
jective point being Acapulco, on the
Pacific coast. where it will be held with
the other forces now there for trans,
portation by sea for the Guatemalan in
vasion if thus ordered.
Francois Narona Muras, the Cuban
journalist, who made such vicious at
tack upon Mexico in connection with
the reception of the Guatemalan
minister by General Diaz, is supposed
to have left Vera Cruz yesterday by
steamer for Havana. Several influential
newspaper men of this capital made petit
ton to Don Romero Rubio, secretary of
state, asking official action against
Muras Getting wind of the matter, he
quietly left town without fighting any of
the numerous duels which he had re-
turned to participate in.
Appearances are that the pending
Guatemalan war will not be as expensive
to Mexico as was at first thought The
ters of aid from wealthy citi-
zens of the republic and the
mass of the people are SO enthusiastic in
their promises that these items, with the
mum berous individual state appropria-
tions. will very nearly relieve the
treasury department from material ex-
penditure of an extraordinary nature.
The country is ready and willing also
for special war tax if the government
finds this necessary.

joaquin Miller Watches an Engage ment

DULUTH, Mimi, Jan. 28.-E. 2. Will
Jams, of Duluth, now in Honolulu, writes
as follows:
"Like their brothers in many of the
streets of the American republic, num-
Der of the restless, adventurous spirits of
these islands consider it quite the proper
caper to start a revolution before break
fast, and by dinner time to have the gov
eminent reconstructed, and the deposed
officers beheaded. The tuppence ha-
penny rebellion Honolulu has just passed
through, would lead many to suppose
that such is the case.
"All the thieves. drunkards, loafers,
gam blers and opium eaters in town
seemed to have been enlisted by the
rebels. There were few who had been
in Royal military organizations. very
few dock labOrers and a few boat boys
(hanakas.( They told all sorts of stories
after their surrender, and were about
as guileless a lot as ever assem-
bled in any quarter of the
globe. As nearly rs Can be gathered
from their statements the insurgents had
600 rifles.
The most serious engagement during
the troubles occurred at Dinmond Head
The engagement at Manoa was witnessed
by quite number of spectators from
Honolulu. among whom was Joaquin
Miller, the Bard of the Sierras.

NEW RAILROAD BOARD.
The Executive Council in Session to Heal
Applications.

The Executive Council in Session to Hear
Applications.
At three O'Clock this afternoon the
executive council began the hearing OF
applications for positions on the state
board OF railroad commissioners to sue
coed w. ID. Vincent, Perry b. Moxson
and John Hare, the present board. The
plan is to give each Candidate thirty
minute speech or so much of the time
as he desires, TO present his claims.
Some OF the candidates say they will not
go before the council at all, believing
that their deserts are we'll enough known
to be passed upon without further pre-
sentatlon.
Those who compose the executive coun-
ell and have vote are the governor, sec
rotary of state, auditor, treasurer, atlor-
ney general and superintendent of pub
lie instruction. The only change in the
situation is that d. w. Eastman of En-
poria, who has been an avowed asplrant
all along, has declared that he IS no
longer candidate.
Ex-Secretary of State William Higgins
says the slate has written upon 1t the
names of James III. Simpson of McPher-
son, Ed Fl. Brown of Glrard, and Joseph
Lowe of Washington, the latter to be the
Democratic member. The greatest kick
made against this trio is that the MIS-
souri, river IOWnS anu w lcHIt4 are nOuo
of them represented.
Wichita has three candidates and two
delegations are here today to urge their
claims If all the candidates be heard
or any considerable number of them, 1t
is doubtful if a choice will be made to-
day, at least not until late tonight.
Most guesses seem to have settled on
J. NJ. Simpson and Joseph G. Lowe as
two of the members, with the field fight
ing for the third place.
The commissioners get $4,000 year
and pocket full of railroad passes The
avowed candidates are:
Elk Governor Anthony of Ottawa, f. NJ.
Lockurd of Norton, G. A. Spaulding of
Phillipsburg. Webb McNall of Smith

WASHBURN SORE.
He Predic the Disruption of the Repub-
1ican Party in Minnesota.


ST. PAUL, MINI, Jan. Ex-senator VIM.
D. Washburn spoke with much bitter
ness last evening in regard to his defeat.
He says:
My candidacy for reelection to the
senate was not personal matter 1 had
no particular desire for re- election, but l
believed it was the desire of the people
of Minnesota that l should serve another
term.
However, I found the situation honey
combed with treachery. The methods of
the opposition have been most disgrace
full There was a shameless use of mon
ey.
"But even worse than the use of mon
ey." continued Senator Washburn, ''was
the outrageous manipulation of state pa
tronage There have been promised
everything there is to be given, and
more-everything was traded to beat me,
every dishonest method of manipulation
known to ring politicians was resorted
to-"
"What do you think will be the effect
of this scandal upon the Republican par
ty in Minnesota"
alt will create the greatest upheaval
ever seen. The people will not counte-
nance such methods l look to see the
Republican party rise in its strength and
wipe out every politician who has been
connected in any way with this unsavory
case"
