RUINED BY VOLCANO.
Formerly Rich Coffee Plantations De-
stroyed Forever.

News brought from Guatemala by
people who have seen the ruin
wrought by the recent eruption OF San
Ia Maria volcano confirms all the pre-
vious reports. The situation could
hardly be worse.
"All the coffee plantations in the vi
cinity of the volcano" says Manuel
Huertado. just arrived here from
Guatemala, have been destroyed for
all time Ashes ten to fifteen feet
deep cover the country. In the neigh
borhood of the volcano ashes are so
deep that only some Of the tops of tall
trees can be seen. Scoria and ashes
cover 1000 square miles of land to a
depth Of five to fifteen feet, and 5000
square miles to depths of one to five
feet One-third of the entire coffee
crop has been destroyed. About 300,-
300 quintals OF the choicest coffee have
been lost, and all land upon which it
was grown is doomed to eternal ster-
Ility."

Panama Canal Region Unhealthy.

General Haines, member of the
Isthmian canal commission, who has
just returned from the isthmus, says
that fever is prevalent there, and that
it is quite dangerous to white men. He
says it is either yellow fever or such
malignant type of malarial fever as
to be as bad as yellow fever. The con-
dition can be improved, but it would
require control by the government of
sanitary measures. He thinks it would
take year to place the canal region
in proper sanitary condition.

PROBABLY MEANS WAR.
British Monroe Doctrine Proclaimed
Persian Gulf.

Foreign Secretary Lansdowne has
proclaimed British Monroe doctrine
in the Persian gulf, and has practi-
cally notified the competing powers
that any attempt on their part to es-
tablish a naval base or fortified post
In those waters means war with Great
Britain.
Il say without hesitation" said the
foreign secretary, dealing with the
subject in the house of lords, that
we should regard the establishment Of
naval base or fortified port in the
Persian gulf by any other power as
very grave menace to British inter-
ests, and we should certainly resist it
with all the means at our disposal"
Lord Lansdowne's attitude in this
matter generally meets with approval.
although the answers thereto of the
other powers interested in the gulf
are awaited with some anxiety.

MoRos HAVE A PLENTY.
Pcrshlng's Men Killed Nine Datos and
One Sultan at Taraca.

Captain Pershing and his column
have returned to Camp Wears. Minda-
mao. from the expedition through the
country east OF Lake Lanao. The col
umn experienced no opposition after
the fighting at Taraca. The prisoners
captured at Taraca took the oath Of
allegiance to the United States and
were released. Among the Moros
killed In the Taraca forts were nine
dattos and one sultan. The moral eff
feet of this fight will be far-reaching,
and 1t is doubtful If there will be any
further hostility in the Lake Lanao
country.
Captain Pershing estimates the pop
ulation OF Taraca at 10000, and that
Of the district at 100000 He says the
population of the Lake Lanao district
has been underestimate.

ployment OF person who is a men,
Der OF the national guard on account
OF such membership. or to dissuaJe
a person from enlisting by threat of
injury with reference to his employ
ment, trade or business. 1t especially
forbids any trade organization from
passing any resolution or bylaw dis.
eliminating in the matter of members
or against any member of the national
guard.
