The Central American Federation Declar-
ed to lie Gaining In Strength.

A Panama dispatch 10 the New York
Herald says: In view Of recent criti-
csms Of the union Of republics in Cen
tral America and doubtful expressions as
to tho stability OF this union, / called
upon Frederick Boyd. Consul General OF
tine greater republic OF Central America
here. to get an official reply to such crit
icisms
knowing the impartial policy OF the
Herald IN all matters Of news giving
both SIDE, Mr.. Boyd was glad to make
statement, as he declared ne Was "u-
thorizcd TO do by the diet
Mr. Boyd said that tho greater kepub-
lie, far from beins threatened with dis
solution in the very beginning Oh It's eN-
istence. was growing stronger and firm
er as its administrative power and scope
extended. Mr. Boyd continued:
The greater Republic IS no myth but
a pcrmanen. federation. The three states
are under an organized and stable gov
eminent, which has already been recog-
nized by tho United States, France, spain
and all the Latin-American Republics.
This union has made revolutions in
the three Individual States practically i'm
possible, and revoits are now counted as
things OF the past. This. as a matter
Of course. does not please tho leader Of
the party out of power, and for that
reason they condemn and stgmatize the
greater Republic as simply union OF
governments against the people
Il know that there are certain leaders
who have been urging the Presidents OF
Guatemala and Costa Itica TO aid them
in overthrowng Gutierrez IN san SalNa-
dor and Zeaya i'm Nicaragua, IN order
to break up the union, but up to the pres
ent time they have met with no success
in this policy.
Costa Rica has always kept aloof from
foreign complications, while Guatemala
has her hands lull at home with se-
rious financial crisis. Furthermore the
relations between san Salvador and Gu
atemaIa are so cordial at present that
neither would aid a revolution started
against the other.
1T is entirely untrue that San Saliva
dor made no attempt 10 prevent an IN
vasion OF Guatcmalan territory In Janu-
arv last. As a matter Of fact 1t was
entirely due TO San Salvadors vigilance
that the expedition was not more iormld-
able. as proved by the published tele-
gram from BlrriOs 10 Gutierrez. thank
ing him for his able cooperation IN
watching the frontier and arrcstins and
imprisouing those implicated.
"The old difference between Costa ksca
and Nicaragua has been happily arrans-
ga through the mediation Of the Central
American diet. setting aside all possible
cause Of trouble between them, or their
lending ail TO crush Zclaya.
The tenor of the replies OF Costa Rica
