REVOLUTIONISTS
IN GUATEMALA

Mexico City, May 30.-Advices re-
ceived from Tapachula and Tonala,
show that revolution against the exist
ing administration of the president,
Estrada Cabrera of Guatemala, broke
out Sunday and Guatemala was invsd-
ed from four points by as many bodies
Of armed men, all equipped with the
best modern rifles.
General Manuel Leandro Barvillas,
formerly president of Guatemala, with
200 cavalry and stock of 700 rifles,
crossed the Mexican border at a point
near Motozinla, and is aiming at Quet-
zatlange, large town garrisoned by
Guatemalan regulars.
Barillas has great coffee estates in
that neighborhood, where he is very
popular, and whence he was driven
four years ago by President Cabrera.
1t is believed that Quetzatlange will be
taken without bloodshed. Barilas sue
cessfully evaded the search of the au-
thorities. He will recruit new men on
his march across the mountains, the
people being loyal to him, as he has
reason TO know.
General Leon Jose Castillo has cap
tured Coos without much resistance be
ing shown. He took that point with
500 men, and was received with enthus.
iasm by the people.
The steamer Empire State, from San
Francisco, which left that port May Ia
with 200 desperate fighters recruited
in that city, and some 300 rifles, has
reached Ocos, thus enabling the disaf-
fected citizens to be armed.
General Castillo was a rival candi.
date for the presidency seven years ago
against Cabrera, but alleges that he
was counted out. and he hsa long
series of scores to settle with the Guat-
emalan president.
Ocos is the most important point for
revolutionists, as it gives them base
on the sea.
General Pineda, with large force
of good lighters, crossed into Guatemala
Sunday from British Honduras, and in
vaded the province of Pelen.
Pineda is stalwart soldier and d
typical Guatemalan revolutionist. He
expects to rally the Indians in Pelen
simultaneously on Monday, General
Toledo, formerly minister of war in
Guatemala, crossed into Guatemala
with 1000 troops, including the Saliva
dorean regulars and disaffected Guate-
malans, largely refugees from the ty-
ranny of Cabrera. This important body
of troops is well drilled and armed
with modern weapons. This act prac-
tically declares war by Salvador
against Guatemala.
Nicaragua also takes part by sending
warship from New Orleans to Puerto
Barias, the seaport Of the Guatemalan
Northern railway, to intercept Presi-
dent Cabrera should he try to elude
his pursuers and escape in that direc-
ton.
The revolutionists are recruiting all
on the way of their respective lines of
march.

FIRST NOTABLE ACT
BRIDE TO De PRINCESS ENA ASKS
PARDON FOR PRISONER.
Government Grants Request-Drama-
tic Events Occur as Prisoner Was
on Way to Gallows-Made Her Popu-
lar With People-Royal Ceremonies
at the Palace.

Madrid, May 2s.-The first notable
act of Princess Ena of Battenberg
since her arrival in Spain to become
the bride of King Alfonso XIII. has
been to induce the king to pardon Fer
nando Levera, who was condemned to
death after an exciting trial. The
dramatic circumstances under which
the pardon was given, as the con-
demned man was going to the gallows,
attracted widespread attention and
further augments the popularity of
Princess Ena.
Levera was to be executed in the
neighboring town of Badajose, but the
population solicited Princess Ena's in
tercession and she spoke to the king,
who consulted with his ministers and
after a cabinet council the government
resolved to grant the request, as 1t
was the first petition the princess had
made in Spain. Thereupon the king
issued a pardon, and telegram an
nouncing the fact reached the prison
at Badajose half an hour before the
time set for the execution. The march
to the scaffold was about to begin
when a messenger brought word of the
pardon.
There were remarkable scenes of re-
ioicing. The townspeople formed a
procession and sang the praises OF
their queen to be. The people Of
Madrid also highly approve the prin-
cess humane Intervention, and the
newspapers comment upon the coming
queens first act as one of mercy.
The Pardo palace was again the
scene of royal ceremonies Sunday, the
ideal weather permitting of open air
religious services on the grounds OF
the palace.
1t was a pretty sight, with the uni
forms of the soldiers forming back
ground for the royal personages.
Princess Ena's interest in the Span
lsh uniforms led King Alfonso to
summon six soldiers representing the
various arms of the service for his
bride elects inspection of their arms
and accoutrements. This was a source
of special satisfaction to the infiuen-
tial army element.
Later in the day King Alfonso and
| Princess Ena went in an automobile
to the picturesque forests of Pardo.
On one of Princess Ena's visits to
Madrid she was permitted to inspect
the gorgeous mutual apartments in the
royal palace.
