NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the Herald tel
egraphs: A cablegram received at the
State Department from Acting Consul
Baruch at San Salvador confirms the
announcement of a revolution in Sal
Yador. The message further states that
President Gutierrez has been taken
prisoner. No request for a warship is
made, but in view of the seriousness Of
the situation it is probable that the
orders to the Philadelphia will be
changed so that she will start as soon
as possible for the Salvadorean coast,
or instructions will be given to the gun
boat Wheeling to proceed to La Liber-
tad and provide protection for Ameri-
can interests.
With the capture of the president Of
the state, the revolution in Central
America usually ends, but this is not
likely to be th2 case, as Salvador is a
state in the Greater Republic of Cen
trail America, and Nicaragua and Hon
duras are required by the constitution
thereof to put down the rebellion. They
will probably restore Senior Gutierrez
to power. A diplomat familiar with the
situation in Central America told me
tonight that the revolt was not par
ticularly directed against Senior Cutter
rez, but against the Greater Republic.
There's a conservative party in Sal
vador," he said, which is opposed to
the union and has taken advantage of
the fact that the republic is only two
weeks old to bring about a revolution
in order to discredit it in the eyes of
the world President Gutierrez was a
conservative until recently and opposed
the entrance of Salvador into the union,
but the reports made by Salvadorean
delegates to Congress shove l the adj

Is responsible to the federal govern

From Delaware.
CUNNING TO BE AMONG THEM
SAYS HE WILL SHOW UP THE
FEMALE FIEND.
Attorney General White Will Per
sonally Assist at the Trial and
Is Confident of Con-
viction.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

WILMINGTON, Del, Nov. 15.-At-
torney General Robert c. White to-
night announced that he would go to
California to personally assist In the
trial of Mrs. Cordelia Botkin. The thir-
teen witnesses from Delaware and the
Attorney General will leave in time to
be present at the opening of the trial
Among the witnesses from Delaware
will be John P. Dunning, the husband
of one of the murdered women. Dun
ming talked freely of his trip to-day.
He said:
1T will be frightfully unpleasant, and
1 shall be put in a bad light, 1 know
but I'll show that female fiend up with
out any mercy 1t is easier for man
to have his past life thrown before the
public presence in distant country. l
might have hesitated had 1t been here,
but there nothing shall be held back.
Dunning expressed 1rmer opinion
than ever that Mrs. Botkin was the
slayer of his wife, although he consfd-
cred her trial in California farce, and
that the only place for speedy justice
to be done was Delaware.
Asked what defense the California
woman intended to lean upon, Dunning
intimated that her strongest defense
was to further fight a trial. He had
no fear either for himself or for the
safety of the case as to what the wo-
man intended to bring out.
"Of course" he added, she will not
spare me- and / am very willing that
nothing should be spared"
Attorney General White explained
how the authorities intend to allow
Mrs Botkin a., loophole for escape. No
technicalities # the law will save the
woman now. Should one jury disagree
she will be tried and retired. Should
she be acquitted the authorities will
then put her on trial for the murder of
Mrs. Deane, and having gotten a
glimpse of the defense she makes can
surely gain a conviction. This failing.
the appeal from the California Supreme
Court will be taken through the Federal
court and the accused woman will then
be tried for the double murder, which.
not being the same offense as either OIL
the former causes, will not place her
life in jeopardy twice. as the constitu-
ton prohibits.
Detective McVey, who is one of the
thirteen witnesses, will be sent on in
advance, to be ready at any moment
with his Federal court appeal or to
thwart any motive to prevent or delay
a trial or secure the release of the al
legged wholesale poisoner.

After the Conclusion
of Peace.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 15.-Colonel w.
J. Bryan tonight gave to the Asso-
ciated Press the following interview
relative to the late election:
while 1 do not understand that ser
vice in the volunteer army prevents
soldier from expressing opinions upon
political questions, l declined to take
part in the late campaign lest l should
be accused by PARTISAN opponents OF
attempting to embarrass the admins
tration. Now that the election is over
/ shall exercise a privilege of discussing
the returns.
Compared with the election of 1896
the Republicans have gained in some
places and lost in others. 1t was not a
sweeping Republican victory. On the
whole the result is not surprising when
it is remembered that the administra-
ton is just concluding a successful
war. While a majority of the soldiers
are probably anti-Republican the man
| agement of the war has been entirely in
Republican hands, and the strongest
| argument used during the campaign
was that a Republican defeat would
discredit t. , President in the eyes of
foreign nations.
now before the people, but successful
plea for continuance of the case. The
people have not accepted the gold
standard; they have not fallen in love
with the plan to give the banks a mo-
nopoly of the issue of paper money;
they have not decided to retire the
greenbacks; they have not surrendered
to the trusts.
These questions were forced into the
back ground by the declaration of war,
but they must be faced again as soon
form presents for public consideration
certain vital, economic questions That
platform has not been abandoned by
those who Endorsed it in 1896. 1t will be
reaffirmed in 1900, because it gives ex-
preston to the hopes and aspirations
of a large majority of the party.
when the Democrats, Populists and
Silver Republicans favored -uban in
dependence they understood that war
would give a temporary advantage to
the party in power, but they were will
ing to risk defeat in order to aid the
people fighting to be free.
Neither can the election be regarded
as an Endorsement of any definite for
eign policy. Until treaty of peace has
been entered into and the terms made
known the people cannot pass judg-
ment upon it. Whether the war will
raise any question of sufficient import
ance to turn public attention away
from domestic problems remains to be
seen"
In regard to the Nebraska election he
said: "A ligh. vote was cast in Ne
braska, but the fusionists have elected
the entire State ticket and carried the
same Congressional districts that they
carried In 1896. If Senator Allen is de-
feated for reelection it will be because
Senators are elected by legislators in
| stead of by the people. If Republican
! Senator is chosen by the next Legisla-
ture he will go to Washington to repre-
sent a minority of the people of the

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours ]; a sediment o1 settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen 1t is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate, or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
 WHAT TO DO.
 There is comfort in the Knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swami D. Root, the great k idDey remedy, fulfils every wish relieving pain in the back kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages, It corrects inabil- ity to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate.
