The Costa Rica-Nicaragua Boundary Dis
pute-The Revolution In Guatemala.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Senor Corea,
charge d'affaires of the greater repub-
lie of Central America, doubts the re-
port of an uprising in Salvador and has
cabled to the diet for information. All
his advices indicate that Salvador is
enjoying peace and prosperity and this,
he says, is equally true of Nicaragua
and Honduras.
Mr.. Corea looks hopefully to the dis
appearance of all irritation between
Nicaragua and Costa Rica, as a result
of the recent decision as to the bound.
airy made by Gen. Alexander, the
American engineer appointed by Pres
ident Cleveland as umpire. The de-
cision has brought out demonstrations
of rejoicing through Nicaragua, but
Mr.. Corea say these are not rejoicings
over a victory, but of satisfaction hat
the old source of trouble has been
finally settled.
The decision of Gen. Alexander ap-
pears to settle the ownership of the
territory at the mouth of the Nicara-
qua canal, placing all but one of the
three %southerly delta streams within
the limits of Nicaragua. But while
this confirms Nicaragua's territorial
possession, yet Costa Rica claims to
preserve, under a treaty, rights of nav-
igation of the San Juan river, forming
the entrance of the canal.
The revolution in Guatemala is the
only one of those recently reported in
Central America which is occasioning
serious apprehension. The Guatemala
army comprises 40, 900 men, including
the reserves, and has 8 large equip.
ment of ordnance. The revolutionists
are said to have three pieces of field
artillery.

THE NEW SPANISH CABINET.

Some of the Names are Well Known in
Washington Notably that of Moret. Whose
Recognition of the Mora Claim. and Incl
dents of the Former Cuban War Brought
Him Into Notice.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-The compost
ton of the new Spanish cabinet is the
subject of considerable gossip in adj
ministration and diplomatic circles.
1t is felt that the three powers of the
regime, SO far as concerns Cuban af-
fairs, are Sagasta, Gullon and Moret,
three names often noted in the state
department records in connection with
previous negotiations concerning indie
p~endence, autonomy and other move
ments at the time of the last long Cuban
war. Sagasta was minister of state at
the time our secretary of state, Hamil-
ton Fish, sent to the United States
minister at Madrid, Caleb Cushing, the
instructions which have since become
famous as laying down the policy of the
United States, and the name of Gullon
appears signed to n of the Spanish
answers to Minister Cushing, Senior
Gullon's apparent Office being that of
assistant minister of state.
AS minister of the colonies, it is be-
lieved Senior Moret will take n leading
part in the coming Cuban negotiations.
He is well known here. having been
minister of state for the colonies. and
also of finance. While Moret was in
the cabinet during the previous Cuban
rebellion, his business associate, Senior
AZcarraga, came to this country as an
envoy to effect a settlement with the
Cubans by granting them a Measure OF
autonomy. The envoy, acting with
the Spanish minister here, Lopez Rob-
ert, sent a commissioner to treat with
the insurgent president.
The commissioner. Senior Zena, ap-
pears to have been indiscreet in his ne
gotiations, for on his way back he was
captured and shot by the Spanish au-
thorities on the ground of having car
ried on unauthorized negotiations with
the insurgents. subsequently, through
the influence of Moret, the widow of
Zena was paid an indemnity of $40, 900,
which was regarded as showing that
the mission for a compromise with the
Cubans was not wholly without official
sanction.
This incident, and MOret's ~recogni-
ton of the Mora claim. have made him
best known in this country. The other
cabinet officers are not known to of
ficials here, and are regarded as men
prominent in the politics Of the day
and allies of Sagasta.

New YORK, Oct. IA cablegram re-
ceived from London announces that
the new North German Lloyd steamer
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse was sighted
passing the Sicily Islands light at 1879
a. IN. This announcement makes it
quite certain that the leviathan steamer

of five DAYS. The Kaiser Wilhelm der

ing four hours for the run from Sicily
to Plymouth, she was due there about
s:35 D. IN. This would make the
time of passage about 5 days,
Is hours and Is minutes. This
is better by IS hours and
IL minutes than the time of the Ham
burg liner Fuerst Bismarck, which has
held the Plymouth record of 6 days 9
hours and "a minutes since August,
1895, and the rate beats the Southamp-
ton record held by the American liner
st. Louis, of 6 days, 10 hours and IA
minutes. made last month, by about IS
hours, for had she been going to
Southampton she would have been due
there about $50 p. m. The average
rate of speed made on the passage
would be about 21.60 knots per hour.
The Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, on
her arrival here on September 26, on
her maiden trip, made the passage from
Southampton in 5 days, % hours and
S5 minutes, at an average speed of
21.S9 knots, lowering the westward
Southampton record held by the St
Paul by 1 hour, Sc minutes By smash
ing the records both eastward and
westward she is nov queen Of the

He Says II Weyler Does Not Resign He
VIII be Recalled.
MADRID. Oct. ct is reported here
that the United States minister, Gen.
Woodford, left at the foreign office
Monday an official note from Secretary
Sherman. Premier Sagasta. in an in
terview, is quoted as saying that most
important questions are before the
cabinet ministers, who have a thorough
knowledge of the financial position of
Spain, and possess accurate details Of
the war situation in Cuba and in the
Philippine islands.
The government, Senior Sagasta
added, will carry out its political and
military programme with firmness and
sagacity.
When the premier was questioned re-
garding the future of Capt.-Gen. Wey-
Ter, he said he supposed Weyler would
resign, adding that if he did not do so
he would be recalled.
In conclusion, Senior Sagasta said
that the most prompt action would be
taken in the Philippine islands, where
the situation, he explained, admitted
of no delay.

that reason a bench warrant could not
be issued. 1t is expected hat the
bench warrant will be issued this
morning. Riedy will be put to the
trouble Of furnishing a new bond.
His present bond is SIS, 600. There is
q possibility that Judge Zachritz will
increase the amount of bond required,
inasmuch as the sum which Riedy is
alleged to have embezzled is over
50, 900.
