BUSY BREEDING REVOLUTIONS
Rival Factions Fill the Little Hotel
Muro.

These be prosperous days for the
Hotel Muro in west Fourteenth street
says the New York Sun. The Hotel
Muro is the Spanish American revolu-
ton factory in New York. San Dom
lingo revolutions are the specially there
just now. The Jimnez faction, which
was the Dominican government yes
terday and hopes to be again tomoT-
row, meets in the front parlor. The
Morales faction. which is the govern
ment today and hopes to hang on for
while, has consultations in the next
parlor The keyhole in the folding
doors between is plugged with paper
from both sides.
Senior Calvin, who is the boss con-
spirator of the Jimnez conspiracy, is
in the city now. He seldom leaves the
hotel but when callers go to see him
who have not the Jimnez password
they invariably find that he is out
In the lobby of the hotel are outposts,
spies and lookouts of both factions
They are studiously obvious of each
others allegiance. Each tries politely
to make the other think that the APP
pearance of lack of interest in the af--
fairs of the others party is mutual.
But when the clerk says to the caller:
Senior Galvan. heis out" the members
of the opposition. the Morales gang.
laugh in there sleeves and say mock

says

The bell boy takes a long and elab-

visitor is not supposed to understand
which runs as follows:

of some expense who has a mysterious
eye and is not visibly armed, but who
appears not to be his friend and may
be a spy from a detective agency is
here and represents himself as a re-
porter for Ell Sol.
The bellbOy comes back and with
impertubable countenance says:
Senior VillalOn, he is out"
And the Galvan sympathisers and
lookouts in the lobby raise their eye
brows and show their teeth to one an
other and murmur: "Ha! The Senior
Villalon, he is Quit"
Meanwhile the conspiracies hum and
buzz in the two parlorS. Messengers
come from down town from the consul
ates of the other Central American
countries. Messengers come from the
Hotel America the other revolutionary
nest. There are other messengers who
have merely walked around the block
to air their own ideas
Just how important and weighty
some of these ideas are may be gath
cred from the errand of Senior Galvan
to District Attorney Jerome ut the
Criminal Courts building some few
weeks ago.
1t was during the interval when the
Calvin crowd was the Dominican gov
eminent. Senior Galvan called upon
the most honorable and learned and
philanthropic district attorney and in
formed Mr. Jerome that he had the
greatest and most wonderful political
opportunity of his life. (Mr Jerome
was at that time trying to convince
his fellow citizens that Mr. Low would
not be an irresistibly popular candi-

Senior Galvan said that Mr.. Jerome
