THE OUTBREAK IN SALVADOR
Failure to Force That Coun-
try to Come in Causes
the Collapse.
President Deposed and a Pro-
visional Government Is
Established.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Dec. The
attempt to effect coalition between the
stateH of Nicaragua, Honduras and Sal
yador, to be conducted under common
administration and known as the United
States Of Central America, has failed
completely. The federal organizers
have formally declared the union dis
solved, the three states resuming re-
spectively absolute sovereignty.
The collapse is due to the failure of
the troops of Honduras, acting in behalf
of the federal organizers, to suppress
the outbreak in Salvador against the
proposed federation and to force Saliva
dor into the union.

ELABORATE PLANS DEVISED
Pretender's Followers Go to the
Extent of Naming a Cow
ernor of Madrid.
Said the Pope Would Avoid
Bloodshed by Uniting the
Two Families.

LoNDoN, Dec. 1.-The Biarritz CORE
spondent of The Daily Mail says: Senior
Sagasta, who has hitherto been skep-
tical ON the point, now admits that
Carlism is The greatest existing danger
to Spain. The authorities are seriously
alarmed at the indications of an immi-
nent rising. The Carlist plans have
been elaborately devised even to the ex-
tent of appointing q governor of Madrid.
The Madrid correspondent of The
Daily Mail says: Lieutenant General
Correa, minister of war, declares that
the government hes 100000 troops in
readiness to take the field in the event
of Carlist rising and will soon have
100000 available. He says, however,
he does not believe that the Carlists in
tend to move yet.
Carlists Are Divided.
Don Carlos, in his forthcoming mani
festo, win make strong appeal to the
army. The Carlists disagree among
themselves as to the advisability of an
immediate movement. The military
element is impatient, but the civilians
urge the uselessness of an attempt to
rise until the Carlists are assured Of the
help of the army.
The Rome correspondent of The Daily
Mail says: The pope has been SO much
impressed by the alarm expressed by
the papal nuncio at Madrid at the possi-
bility Of civil war that; with the con-
sent of the queen regent and with a
view of avoiding bloodshed, he has
opened negotiations with Don Carlos
proposing that Don Jaime, the pre-
tenders son, should marry Princess
Mary of Asturias.

Was the Belief at Washington That the
Republic Would Collapse.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The uprising
in Salvador has reached the dimensions
of revolution, in the judgment Of Off
cials and diplomats familiar with af-
fairs in that quarter. President Gutter
rez has given way to General Regalado,
who has formed provisional govern
ment. The changes are construed by
some of them as death blow TO the
newly formed republic known as the
United States of Central America, com.
posed of Salvador, Honduras and Mica
ragua, one of whose main purposes was
to provide joint military force for
common defense against uprisings.

Boston, Nov. 3e.--The passing hours
do not bring an end to the reports of
wrecks and loss of life up and down the
New England coast as the outcome of
Saturdays terrific storm. From Cape
Cod the most terrible accounts of ruin
and death are coming, and of these the
loss Of the steamer Portland, with nearly
100 souls on board, oyershadpws all.
The graveyard of the coast, the treach-
erous bars and rips on the outside of
Cape Cod, have claimed victims with
out number. Miles and miles of coast
line are piled high with wreckage, most
of which is ground SO fine by the waves
that Identification of helpless craft is
impossible.

on the bleak sand hills which make up
the cape it will be many hours before
