BARRIOS FEELS UGLY
Threats Of Rebellion Don't Improve
His Temper

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 4.-The latest
mail from Guatemala conveys the in
formation that President Barrios is
threatened with another uprising. Ad
vices have been received at the capital
of the Central American republic that
conspirators are at work in the northern
part of the country, close to the Mexican
border. and are being aided by political
enemies of Barrios in the eastern depart
ments of the government.
Behind the movement is said to be Cen
eral Castillo. who participated in the
recent uprising. He it was who organized
his forces in Salvador and then crossed
the border, an act which nearly involved
the two neighboring republics in serious
trouble. Castillo was routed and fled to
Honduras.
Barrios, it is said. is not greatly dis
turbed by the information for he believes
that his recent victories will not encour-
for a time. He his reported. however.
to be in an ugly mood and is dealing out
terrible punishment to number of pris-
oners whom he gathered in during the
uprising and has since kept confined in
the government penitentiary in the City
of Guatemala. Flogging has been re-
vived and the lash is being used on about
200 prisoners, most of whom are whipped
every day.
The revival of the lash in Guatemala
was a great surprise to the people. for
President Barrios had always hereto

DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 4.-Two sub
urban cars, carrying some twenty pas
sengers, and both running at speed
of twenty-five miles an hour, collided
on the Detroit and Oakland electric rail-
road at l o'clock this afternoon. The re-
suit was that three men were killed and
a score of persons injured, several of
them seriously.
The dead:
JOHN SAVAGE, superintendent ofthe
road.
| CHAS. NJ. WHITEHEAD, motorman.
JOHN KELLY of Detroit, book agent.
Injured:
FRANK McHUGH, Motorman, leg
broken.
LOUIS HARNECK, seriously.
MRS. JOHN DOTY, two ribs broken.
Aged mother of Mrs John Doty of Pom
tiac, badly crushed and leg broken.
JOHN REG Ell of Pontiac, leg broken.
And dozen others more or less bruised
and cut by flying glass.
The exact cause Of the accident is as
yet in doubt. According to the schedule
car leaves each end, Detroit and Pom
tiac, every hour, and there are three
s!dings along the road. Today the cars
were behind. The one bound southwark
for Detroit, had passed an outbound
car at the switch two miles from Pontiac
the crew apparently being ignorant of
the fact that another outbound car was
approaching them less than two miles
distant The weather was foggy, and
the rails slippery from sleet. The colli-
sion came near a gravel pit. and midway
between Pontiac and Birmingham, at
the foot Of two steep grades, down which
the fated cars ran at full speed. The
impact was terrific. The cars were driven
half through each other and crushed to
pieces. superintendent Savage was in
the motorman's vestibule, operating the
outbound car. Both his legs We're cut
OF and his dead body was frightfully
mangled. Motorman McHugh, who stood
behind Savage, narrowly escaped a SIM
liar fate.
John Kelly was evidently the only pas
senger who saw the north-bound car
approaching. He rushed for the vesti-
bule door, and he and Motorman White
head were struggling to get out of the
door when the crash came. Both were
killed. Keily's head and shoulders were
Jammed out of the vestibule window and
his neck was broken. Whitehead's head
was cut open and his chest crushed.
Had 1t not been for the stout construc-
ton of the cars, it Is doubtful whether
any Of their occupants would have es-
capped alive. AS 1t was nearly all of the
fourteen passengers in the south bound
car suffered some injury. Some Of the
injured were taken to farmhouses and
others were brought to the city hospitals
