End of the Boundary Dispute Not
ia Sight-War Fever Diminished.
ST. LOUIS. Mo-, Feb. Is, 1s95.-A
special from the city of Mexico to the
.Globe-Democrat' says that Don Ig-
nacio Mariscal, Minister of Foreign Re-
lations in the Mexican Cabinet, yester-
day said that the end of the Guatemalan
question is not yet in sight. The Sec
retary indicated that the neighboring
Republic is still at its tactics of evading
the real questions in the dispute with
Mexico and endeavoring to gain all the
time possible. It was reported from
alleged officials information that the
matter has been a,nicably settled, that
Guatemala had acceded to Mexico's de-
mands for indemnity, but in the sum
of $1,5oO,0O0 in place of $1,S0o.000. as at
first claimed by Mexico, and that under
this arrangement the final survey of
settlement of the troublesome questions
would at once begin The statement of
the Foreign Minister would seem to show
poses the amicable settlement of the
dispute is as far away as ever during
the past few days.
The war fever has perceptibly dimin-
ished, but is ready to break out again
among the Mexican people on the slight
est provocation.
President Diaz has decreed the pro-
hfnon hnraa 81 .ne tp nf hos ana
the frontier of Guatemala, the Pacific
Coast and that of Matamoras. The Sec
retary of the Treasury can, in special
he may deem proper, permit the expor-
tation.
It is stated in the decree that it is OF
q transitory character, and It IS evidently,
the animals to Guatemala until the
boundary question is settled.

Sing liar Suit Against the Boboken

AS will be remembered, on November
%, 1894, the ferryboat Netherland of the
Hoboken Ferry Company, crashed into
the piles at it's slip in Barclay street,
New York, badly damaging the side of
the boat and seriously, but not fatally
fnjuring number of its passengers.
The accident was caused by a sudden
puff of wind and the strong current
which was running at the time. The
ferry company took care of the injured
until they had become convalescent and
then sent their claim agent, Mr.. Fred
Mersheimer. to settle with them.
Over thirty people sent in claims, some
of which were for injuries received and
some for articles lost. Every claim
fused and within a month after the ac-
cident all claims We're settled. At least
the company thought SO.
Early in January, papers were served
upon them by McAdanl and McAdam, a
New York law firm, stating that they
would bring two suits against the com
pany on behalf of clients who had re-
dent, to recover $l0, 600 damages each
Counsellors Besson, Stevens and Lewis,
lawyers for the ferry company, commun-
ieated with the New York firm and learn
ed that the people who were going to
sue the company were a Miss Jennie
Max of East Brooklyn, and a Mr.. Dan
iel Friedman of Harlem. Miss Max, it
tracted strabismus and Mr.. Friedman
had received such internal injuries as
to leave him a nervous wreck. The
company will fight the suits.
