BARRIOS In An UGLY MOOD.
GuatemaIa's President FIOgging
About 200 Prisoners a Day.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 4.-The latest
mail from Guatemala conveys the inforna-
tion that President Barrios is threatened
with another uprising. Advices have been
received at the capital Of the Central Amer
lean Republic to the effect 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 Bar
rios in the eastern departments of the gov
ernments Behind the movement is said to
be General Castillo, who participated in the
recent uprising, He had organized his
forces in Salvador and then crossed the
border, an act which nearly involved the
two neighbor republics in serious troubles.
Castillo was routed and fed to Honduras.
Barrios is not greatly disturbed by the re-
port, for he believes his recent victories
will not encourage any serious uprising, at
least for a time. He is reported however,
to be in an ugly mood and is dealing out
terrible punishment to a number Of prison
ers whom he gathered in the late uprising
and has since kept confined in the govern
ment penitentiary in the city of Guatemala.
Fiogging has been revived, 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 great sur
prise to the people, for President Barrios
had always heretofore regarded such pun
iShment in most unfavorabe light.

TRANSFER OF GOLD.
Nearly Ton Deposited in New York
to San FranciscO's Credit.

NEW YORK, Dec 4.-The sum of $500,0O
in gold coin (nearly one ton freighO was de-
posted in the United States substreasury
in this city to-day in exchange for tele-
graphic transfer of that amount to San
Francisco. The arrangements for this trans
fer were made through the treasury in
Washington. but the deposit was not made
by WinsIow, Lanier & Co., as it was an
nounced in some morning paper that it
would be. few weeks ago New York
bankers had millions of dollars in gold in
San Francisco that they wanted transferred
to this city in the same way Now the
exchange conditions are reversed, and the
government could accommodate the bankers
without loss, which they could not do then.
AT that time the bankers shipped their gold
from San Francisco by registered mail. A
leans was made to-day through the sub
treasury in exchange for legal-tender notes.

PROPOSED WIRE TRUST.
Combination That Will Represent
Many Millions of Capital.

CLEVELAND, o., Dec. 4.--The proposed
immense combination OF wire, wire-nail and
steel rod interests overshadowing anything
of the kind ever before planned, has ad-
vanced to the point where the concerns in
terested have decided to go in, and all that
remains TO be done is to reach an agreement
on the value of The different mills. Daily
conferences are being held in New York, and
Cleveland manufacturers are in constant
communication with the seat of activity.
The Cleveland concerns interested are the
American wire works, the II. p. Nail Com
pany, the Consolidated Wire and Steel Com
pany. the Cleveland Rolling Mill Company
and probably the Johnson Company. The
Pittsburg interests are the Parkin works,
the Beaver Falls works, the PittSDurg Wire
Company and the Oliver-Snyder Company.
The last named carries with ii the Oliver
interests in the immense Carnegie acquisi-
tions. Besides rod and wire mills the new
combination includes steel mills blast fur
naces and iron ore mines. Mines are owned
by the Cleveland Rolling Mill Company and
the Oliver and Carnegie interests. IL is the
Identity and go out of business and there
lie simply the one great company. The
statement is made that John w. Gates, the
originator of the scheme, will not be the
general manager, as was at first suggested,
but that this office will be occupied by w. +.
Snyder. OF Pittsburg. The further state
ment is made by Cleveland iron men who
company Will rest in the hands Of j. Pier
pont Morgan and his associates, they hav-
ing arranged to obtain that control by pur-
chase

then proceed to the Yukon country" Wis
count Avonmore is very sanguine as re-
CARDS the Klondike. The motto of his fam

The second party consisted of two Amer

PAsSING OF THE BIROH CANOE

Maine Indians Get Their Boats Nowadays
from Dealers In Now York.
BANGOR. Me-. July 3.-The famous birch bark
canoe of Indian invention and Indian make,
which until thirty years ago was used exclu-
sively by nearly every party that went up tho
Maine lakes. has almost disappeared. Before
the war tho Tomatine braves, who are kept on
State preserve In Old Town, got more money for
their canoes than they did for baskets. To-day
there are not half dozen birch canoes In use by
the tribe and there has not been oanoe built
on Indian Island for three years. The shores OF
the l56 islands owned by the Indians are plenu-
fully strewn with canoes through the season.
and the tribe mako long journeys in them by
water. going as far north as the upper st. John
and as far south and west as Onset Bay, Mass,
but all the canoes employed In travelling are
made OF canvas.
One reason for the change Is that tho canvas
canoes are cheaper. fully as light as and moro
durable than any craft constructed Of bark. A
birch canoe Ia useless as soon as q hole 10
punched in the casing while q canvas ono can
bo patched as easily as an old coat. The chief
cause for the decline IN bark canoes is that suit
able bark is getting very scarce. Tall and
straight papyrus birch trees OF sufficient size TO
furnish . coat for . big canoe were formerly
plentilui IN the Maine woods; but the thread
