Representative of the Guatemalain
Government Evidently Against

TELLS OF PERIODICAL REVOLUTIONS

ipg the Condition of Affairs in That
Little Republic.

New York, July l2.-Martin Rob
erts, financial representative of the
government of Guatemala, is in the
city trying to sell railroad that has
been built in that little republic by
American capital.
He says that his republic, and most
Of the other republics making up the
Central American states, look forward
to the day when they will be part
of the United States.
Besides the agitation there for an
nexation, Mr.. Roberts says there is a
pronounced feeling against the silver
standard.
The fault found with silver is that
it nuotuates with the crops.
Tine stories from San Francisco, y
said Mr.. Roberts, regarding an I'm
pending revolution in Guatemala are
ali nonsense.

reached that oity and assisted in send

"You see, 1t is easy to start either a
story or revolution in Guatemala,
"All that is necessary is half doz-
en- hungry men and something to eat
when the men try to get some
thing to eat without paying for it
there is your revolution
The immediate trouble just now is
about the debasement Of silver.
"That metal is the standard there
and it ductustes with the price Of
coffee.
"There was a tremendous crop of
coffee this year and even now more is
growing there than ever known bes
fora.
"The result IS that the price has fal-
Ian to degree never known before.
and somehow the silver f. lows it.
There is no use in denying that
the metal is greatly debased in Guate-
msla and that fact has brought about
the present bad financial and business
cor ditions.
"But to talk of revolution on that
account is nonsense"

o S S IBLE ICE WA R
Two Large Companies in This City Prepared
to Consolidate

The ice situation in this city, or rather
the future of the companies that are now
carrying on business here is a matter
that is attracting considerable attention
in various circles. The consumers are nat
urally concerned to know whether the ru-
mored intention of the new company re-
Gently located in this city to secure control
of the ice business can be carried out
On the other hand, those who own stock
in the two large companies, which do the
bulk of the trade here, are also somewhat
interested in the same question.
The knickcrbocker company, which is
the new concern here and which is also en-
gagged in the ice business elsewhere, made
its formal appearance in this city several
months ago, when it bought the controlling
interest in the HYGIENE company an arti-
fetal plant, paying half of the purchase
money needed to secure a control in Its
own stock As stated IN The Star the
knickerbocker few days ago bought the
Washington Ice Manufacturing Company,
in Georgetown, a concern that is said To
have capacity of about twenty-five tons
daily. An arrangement has also been made
with Nh. e. NJ. Willis by which the Knick-
erbocker will have the use of the wharf
and the icehouse controlled by Mr.. Willis
at the foot of 1312 street
There is some talk that it is the purpose
of the knickerbocker company to also
cure the control of the Independent Ice and
the Great Falls Ice companies. Those who
are in position to know, however, seem
to think the prospects of the new concern
of accomplishing this alleged purpose in
either or both of the cases mentioned is
now very slight. If this is correct, then
it seems to some who have given the mat
ter attention that there is a chance that
the rate war that has quietly been in pro-
greSS for some time past will receive fresh
IG he m gl11IaA
mentioned are we'll equipped for such a
contest, as they not only have facilities
here for carrying on business, but they also
harvest their own ice on the kennebec riv-
er in Maine, where they have large ice
houses. 1t is also said that the movement
made some time ago by the new concern
to carry the war to close quarters by re-
ducing the rates has been and is being met
by the two home companies referred to,
and that the latter are pleased with the
outcome.

ADMIRAL SIMPSONS CRUISE.
North Atlantic Squadron Going South
for Drills.

Secretary Long has decided to allow Ad-
miral Sampson to undertake a cruise with
the North Atlantic squadron in southern
waters for drills and maneuvers This
cruise will extend certainly to Havana and
perhaps to the north coast of South Amer
lea. A favorite spot for naval evolutions in
winter is off the coast of Venezuela The
squadron will get away as soon as the
ships can be made ready This will be the
first time in several years that the ships
have had the opportunity to drill in this
manner, the last southern evolutionary
cruise being made by Admiral Meade, sub
sequent events, such as the Venezuelan
boundary incident and the state of affairs
in Cuba making it impolitic to continue
them.
The squadron will consist of the New
York Cfagship) Brooklyn, armored cruisers.
and the Indiana, Massachusetts, and Texas.
battle ships, thus embracing all the
armored ships on the home station outside
of the monitors, which ara not suitable for
cruising.
The inclusion of the Brooklyn in this fleet
has occaSioned some surprise in naval cir
cles, as 1t was confidently expected that
Admiral Schley would be allowed to retain
her his flagship on his proposed visit to
the European station.
It now appears, however that none of
the vessels which took a prominent part in
the engagements in the West Indies is to
be assigned to Admiral Schley's fleet and
that the English people will have to forego
the reception which was to be given in
their honor in British waters.
Secretary Long is authority for the
statement that the fleet will not be organ
lied until after the Senate ratifies the
peace treaty. The remodeled cruiser Chi
cago viii undoubtedly be the flagship of
|. the squadron, which may not comprise
more than two other vessels of the cruiser
or gunboat class.

English Diplomat Points Out the I'M
possibility of Trade.

LONDON. January 16-Diplomats refuse
to take seriously the revival of the report
cabled from Washington. that the United
States is willing TO exchange the Philippine
Islands for the British West Indian Is
lands. A high official of the foreign office
characterized the statement absurd. He
said that while the continental powers APP
peared to be willing to permit the United
States to hold the Philippines as spoils of
war. they would not be likely to remain
passive spectators of a change in the bal
ance of power in the far east which would
result from Great Britain's requirement of
those islands, particularly so at this critical
time in the struggle for domination in
China. The official quoted further remark
ed that he did not believe Great Britain or
the United States courted the inevitable
protests and complications which would re-
suit from the proposed exchange.
If such negotiations are on foot the off,
Gals of the United States embassy here
