Central Americans Will Be Ready for

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 29.-The Of
ficers Of the steamer Acapulco. which ar
rived today from Central America, say
that a general uprising in that country
may be anticipated next year.
I'VE heard in Central American ports
that there was standing offer of $50, 900
for the death of Barrios," said one of the
officers. HE is we'll guarded, however,
and whoever earns the blood money will
have to run numerous risks. There are
hundreds ready to take the chances and
as soon as the coffee crops are in you will
see that a number of attempts will be
made to take the life Of the president Of
Guatemala. The leaders of the late re-
bellion are all within striking distance
of the Guatemalan frontier, and when
their plans are matured, they will make
their presence felt. In San Salvador
the people are also disaffected, and they
also are likely to be in open warfare
with one another before the year is very

General Fuentes, who led the recent
uprising against President Barrios, is

A Brutal Murder

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Dec. 29.-Nellie
johnson, young negress, was chopped
to death with hatchet tonight in an
alley near Tenth and Wyandotte streets,
in the business district Of the city. Her
husband was the murderer. He called
her from the house into the alley and at
tackled her with the hatchet. The wo-
man threw up her hands to protect her
head. When men who heard her cries
ran to the scene they found her dying.
Each of eight blows upon her head had
split the skull, and her hands had been
literally chopped to pieces. Near by
stood horse and an express wagon. in
which there were ropes tied to a heavy
Stone. 1t had evidently been the inten-
ton of the murderer to throw his victim
into the river, but the woman's outcry
had prevented this being done. johnson
is still at large.
