 Former Sheriff Callahan of Breathitt county, co-defendant with Judg Hargis In the case, then took the stand He was asked practically the same ques- tions propounded Hareis yesterday and
 made the same answers. Callahan said he had no intfmation that Mar cum was to be killed and had never discussed a plot with anybody to kfiI Marcum. Callahan was not on friendly terms with Curtis Jett at the time cf the shooting, and denied that he had given Jett the pistol with which Mar cum was killed. Witness said he had difficulty with Jett a few days be- fore Marcum was killed and had sent Jett check for services performed as oGpuIy GneTiH.

The Cruiser Marblehead Ordered to Pro- ceed to La Libertad to safe-
 guard the Interests of the United states.

Washington, July 13.-Senor Munoz. the Guatemalan Minister here today. re- ceived the following cablegram from Secretary of State Barrios, dated at Guatemala City yesterday:
 complete triumph of the Guatemalan army over the Salvadorean invading forces. Salvadorean general in chief, Tomas Regalado, killed yesterday at Ei Bicaro."
 At the instance of the State Depart ment, the Navy Department today ca bled to Commander Mulltgan of the Marblehead at Panama, to proceed fm- mediately to La Libertad. on the coast of Salvador. to safeguard American in terests.
 A cablegram received at the State De- pertinent today from Minister Merry aG San Salvador etates that continu- ous fighting Is proceeding on the bor- der line between Guatemala and Saliva dor; also that the Guatemalan troops have crossed the line into Honduras. This latter is understood here to be part of the Guatemalan attack on the fugitives of Regulates army after that leader was killed yesterday.
 The Marblehead should arrive at Lib- ertad at least by tomorrow. There is no other American warship within 2.5o0 miles of the scene of trouble so the Marblchead may have to divide her time between SaIvadorean and Guatemalan ports subject to the call of the Amer ican Minister at either San Salvador or Guatemala City.
 The state department here Is earnestly trying to prevent the hostile clash from proceeding. to the point of war and to that end instructions have been sent to Minister Merry at Sal. Salvador and to Minister Combs at Guatemala City to use their good of- fees with the governments to which they are accredited and endeavor to bring about a peaceful settlement Of the present ditiicuitysN
 Tn addition, the state department has been in correspondence by wire with Ambassador Thompson at the City of Mexico and he has enlisted the active support of the Mexican govern ment for the effort now being made by Che state saepartment to prevent what might easily prove to be a gem e-al war between Central American republics north of Panama.
 The Mexican government. regardless of a considerable number of malcon- tents on the southern border who are believed to be in active sympa- thy with Guatemalans who are m revolt against the govern ment of President Cabrera, has enforced the neutrality laws with the greatest strictness and has, according to Mir Thompson's report. done every thing possible to discourage the use of Mexican soil as the base for any in- surrection against Guatemala.

the Present.
 St. Petersburg, July iS.---The visit of the British Channel fleet to Russian waters has been postponed until more propitious time.
 The initiative. in this decision came from Russia which pointed out that the protected visit has been welcomed with lively satisfaction by the Russian gov ernment who saw in it an expression of sympathy for Russia on the part of Great Britain. Unfortunately, 1t is add ed, certain political parties in Great Britain and Russia fomented sharp agitation with view to connecting the visit with questions of Russian inter nal policy.
 The firm and loyal statements of the British Secretary for Foreign Affairs brought the question back to It's prop CT ground and was appreciated at St. Petersburg at it's proper value. New ertheless. in view of the political crisis which is passing over Russia, the gov ernment could not help foreseeing that the arrival of British ships at Rus- sian port might cause recrudescence of the agitation and incidents or na- ture to harm the future relations ot Great Britain and Russia.
 Most cordial telegrams have been exchanged between King Edward ana Emperor Nicholas.

 Washington, July 13.--The recent election in Panama brought new hero to the attention of the Isthmus and advanced Alcalde Francesca de la ossa to a position scarcely less distinguish ed than that of Governor Magoon, who was a co-worker with the Alcalde or Panama in checking the election riots.
 Alcalde de la Ossas conduct Is de- scribed by Panama paper thus:
 Only the ceaseiess efforts of the Aicalde prevented serious rioting. With great courage and presence of mind he rode in among the surging, struggling pack, clearing path by aid of his rid ing crop and when everything else failed to separate two desperate fight CTS, he would be able to get them apart by the simple but most effective de- vice of riding between them. with per haps a compliment from his riding whip to each combatant.
