Washington, July 6.-Again the Unit
ed States will probably figure as a
peacemaker. Guatemala and Salvador
are making overtures for the arbitra-
tion of their troubles resulting from the
alleged activity of Salvador in support
of the revolutionary movement against
President Cabrera of Guatemala, and
it is likely that the United States will
be selected as the country in which the
board of arbitration will meet.
The state department has been adj
vised of the desire of the two countries,
which are almost at the point of max
ing war against each other, to have
their differences settled by arbitration,
and altho formal negotiations have not
been made there seems to be but little
doubt that an amicable settlement of
the points of difference will be finally
effected thru arbitration. rs

Washington, July 6.-The strongest

which is by all odds the most formid-
able in the world. 1t will embrace
either thirteen or fourteen frst-class
battleships, which will be divided into
four squadrons. This force will be
supplemented by squadron Of four or

command of Rear Admiral Brownson,
a torpedo hotilla and a number of feet

1t is also likely that the squadron of

Eight of the vessels of the battle.

To this force there will be added
either five or six new battleships, fresh
