PEACE IN GUATEMALA.
Dictator BarriOs Again in Full Com
frOI of the Governments.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct s.-The steamer
City of Para arrived to-day from Central
American ports, bringing the latest news of
the revolution in Guatemala prior to the re-
ceipt of the dispatches telling of the recap
ture of Quezaltenango by the government
FORCES While those on board had not heard
of the retaking of Quezaltenango they are
for the most part disinclned to accept the
news, as they say that Barrios maintained
a strict censorship over both press and tele-
graph. Shortly after the City of Para left
San Jose de Guatemala, ten DAYS ago. a
conference of the American, English and
French consuls was held as the result of
which they waited on President Barrios and
asked for information as to the use he pro-
posed to make of the steamer City of PAN
anna, informing him that it was currently
rumored that he intended to leave the coun-
try. Barrios stated that he proposed to
use the vessel for the Transportation Of
troops and had no intention of Abandoning
his followers. On Sept. 20 Morales issued
a proclamation throughout the city of CSlIa-
temala offering to allow Barrios to escape
In the hope of avoiding further bloodshed
but the City of Para sailed before Barrios's
response was made public.
Consul General Carrillo to-day received a
dispatch to the effect that the revolution
was at an end and that Barrios was again
in complete control of the situation which
was confirmed later on by several private
cables to prominent business men who have
interests in Guatemala

day before Senorita Cossio escaped she re-
ceived a package believed to have contained
drugged candies. In any case the senorlta,
contrary TO her usual custom, did not al
once distribute the candies TO her prison
companions, but waited until Wednesday
night when she urged each of them TO par
take of the confections. The prisoners dld
so, and they express the conviction that the
sweets were drugged, for they soon after

Marquis of Pena Plata, Appointed
Governor of the Island.
MORE SOLDIERS FOR CUBA
TWENTY THOUSAND TO ACCOMPANY
MEYLERS SUCCESSOR.
Details of the Escape of SenOrita
EvangeIina Cossio Cisneros from
the Isle of Pines Prison.

MADRID, Oct. S-Midnight.-The Cabinet
has decided on the immediate recall of Gen
efal Weyer from Cuba. A decree will be
issued appointing Capt. Gen. Blanco y
Arenas, Marquis of Pena Plata, governor
general of the island. The Queen Regent
will sign the decree tomorrow. According
to Ell Heraldo, 10000 reinforcements will ac-
company General Blanco to Cuba
In the course of the cable message sent
by Captain General Weyler to Premier Sa-
gasta, placing his post in Cuba at the dis
posal of the government, he said: IF the
functions with which the government had
intrusted me had been merely those of gov
ernor general of Cuba l should have hast
ened to resign But the two-fold character
Of my mission, and my duty as command
er-in-chief in the face of the enemy pre-
vent my rendering a resignation. Never
theless, although l can rely on the abso-
lute unconditional support of the autono-
mists and constitutional parties, as well as
upon public opinion, this would be insult
ficient without the confidence of the gov
ernment, now more than ever necessary to
me after the censure of which / have been
made the object by the members and jour
nails of the Liberal party and by public
opinion in the United States which latter
is largely influenced by the former. This
confidence would be necessary to enable me
to put an end to the war, which has al
ready been virtually concluded from our
lines at Jucaro to Cape Antonio"
Senior Sagasta replied: Il thank you for
your explanation and value your frank
ness. wish to assure you that the gov
ernment recognizes your services and val
ues them as they deserve but it thinks a
change of policy, in order to succeed, re-
quires that the authorities should be at one
with the Ministry. This has nothing to do
with the confidence in you by the govern
ment, for the Liberals have always said
that the responsibility for a given policy
does not fall on those who carry it out, but
upon the government inspiring it. / shall
communicate your decision to the govern
ment shortly"
General Blanco will be accompanied by
General Arderino as vice governor of Cuba,
by Gen. Gonzale Pinals as chief of staff
and Generals Rando, Bernal and Canella
Among the diplomatic changes reported
here as being imminent is that the Duke OF
Almordova or Senior Muruaga will replace
Senior Dupuy de Lone as Spanish minister
to the United States.
