President Cabrera, of Guatemala,
So Declares of the BariIIas
Revolution.
CASTILLO IS FORCED TO RETIRE
he Occupies ocos, but Finds It Too
Hot for Him.
So started, but Already Crushed, -
Teiegraphs the Alleged Tyrant
He Is Probably Too Pre-
yious in His OPP
timism.

Panama, May 30.-The Associated
Press Las received the following dis
patch, dated Guatemala, May 20, 9:12
a. M: Revolution started, but al
ready crushed. Estrada Cabrera. .
Cabrera is the president of Guatemala
City Of Mexico, May 30. Major
Castillo, commanding one detachmen
Of Guatemalan revolutionists, after
taking the city of Ocos was forced to
retire before superior forces. CASTILLO
is now reported to have taken a new
base, and will be reinforced at once
by several hundred good hghtIng men
from the steamer Empire City. Cen
eral Bariilas is in the mountains, ma k
ing bis way to Quetzaltenango. Baril-
las has with him a fine body of picked
men, and is reported to be steadily
recruiting his force. No news has been
received here from Salvador, but the
invading force should by this time be
well advanced into Guatemala. Resi-
dent Guatemalans here state that the
whole country is ripe for the over
throw of Cabrera. The season of rains
has set in, and the roads are bad in
Guatemala.
Rebels Are Cutting the Wires.
News from the Guatemalan frontier
will be somewhat interrupted, owing
to the revoIutionists having cut the
wires, but messengers on horseback
will be dispatched from Ocos, where
General Castillo hatls his forces, and
from the flying column of General Ba-
rillas, who is pushing on to. the i'm
portant city of Quetzaltenango, which
has 10000 inhabitants. This city is
likely to be Occupied by General Ba-
rillas this week. He is immensely popu-
lar in that region.
How Barillas Got Away.
The revolution is the most widely
spread of any in the history of that
country. Foreign planters have been
waiting for months for General Baril-
las to act. Practically all foreign in
terests, and many of the, best natives,
support the revolt. Frequent abuses
Of power are charged to the govern
ment. General Barillas and General
CASTILLO and their two aides left the
city by q neat piece of strategy. On
the 18th inst. they bought tickets to
I1l Paso. They boarded the NIGHT
train, but left that train few
miles out Of this city and returned and
boarded a special Pullman car and in
this car started to Tonala on the Pa
cific coast, from whence they crossed
the border with their forces.

Chicago, May 30.--In every city and
hamlet Of the country the annual
strewing of flowers over the graves of
the dead who died that their country
should not be divided took place as
usual on Memorial Day. Here 25O
public schools took part in the exer-
cises, and everywhere where the
weather was at all propitious the vet
Grams paraded in their constantly thin
ming ranks.
President Roosevelt, with his wife
and two of his children, went to Ports

to deliver the Memorial Day address.

WIDOW GETS THE BULK
Question Is Decided as to the owner
ship of Certain OF Joe JefTer-
SONS PiCfureS

Boston, May 80. = In the supreme
court Justice Henry N. Sheldon sent
down a decision upon the will of Jo-
seph Jefferson, the actor, in which the
disposition of a fund of about 1920
900, realized from the sale of his pic
lures, was involved. Under the decis-
ion, his widow, Mrs. Sarah A. Jeffer-
son, will receive the bulk of the pro-
ceeds.
The actor willed to his wife all his
paintings. except those executed by
him, which were in or about his estate
at Buzzard's Bay. Some of the paint
ings. however, were loaned out on ex-
hibition; others were away from the
estate for purpose Of sale, and still
others had been sent to a specific point
for sale, to be returned if not sold.
This complication gave rise to a sit~
uation that made it necessary for JEFF
ferson's executors to ask for the in-
depreciation of the will by the court.

HOT FIGHT FOR TIVE BOUNDS
Two Men Meet in the Ring for $500
and the satisfaction of Per-

$780,
st. Louis, May 30-In the heart Of
the wilderness of a lonely island in tho
middle of the Mississippi river. six
miles above Alton, H., free from In
terruption by the officers of the law
from either state, Harvey Robinson,
son of John 7. Robinson, Il Chicago at
torney, residing at 1878 East Sixty
second street, Chicago, and John Muir
ply, a Cincinnati pugilist, foughka ter
rife fight to a finish. The fight was for
$500 side. Robinson not wishing to
disclose his real Identity fought under
the name of Jack Kelly, of Detroit.
The fight was the elimination Of
long standing emnity between the two
men, who fought with all the ferocity
of two frantic animals. The battle
lasted five rounds. Robinson won with
a terrific blow over the heart, which
sent his adversary spinning towards
the ropes, over which he fell backwards
and hung as if lifeless while the ref
cree slowly counted ten seconds. Muir
ply was then carried to the boat, where
he was bathed in cold water and his
muscles rubbed vigorously until he
finally regained consciousness. Only
twenty-five spectators witnessed the
fight.

THE council will fool along with
that agreement made by the North
western railway to pay nearly $50, 900
toward the paving of West Main ST.
in exchange for the privilege of put
ting down additional tracks across
Grand avenue until the road has a
chance to go back on its bargain if
the aldermen do not watch out. The
city should have closed with the rail
road as soon as possible after the
proposition was made. 1t is too good
a chance to lose. AS a matter of fact
the company can get along pref
ty we'll with the tracks it already
has across Grand avenue and that
without paying the city cent and
signs are not lacking that the railway
company is not any too anxious to pay
over the money. The aldermen should
think twice before they let this chance
to secure great Improvement get
away from them. If there we're no
tracks at all across Grand avenue the
protest of the property owners would
carry more weight, but inasmucs as
