Warships Said to Have Been Dispatched for This r Purpose. Report That Guatemala May Appeal to Us for Pro tection, '" 3 a a i An Outcome of the Eevolution Brew ing in. the Central American Repnhlic. New Orleans, July 12. The. disturbed condition of affairs in Guatemala, which presages revolution, are -intensified, according to reports which reach ed here today, by the threatened in terference of England and Germany, growing out of Guatemala's repudiation of bonds held abroad. It is reported -that two Cjerman and two English war ships have teen ordered to Guatemala to demand immediate settlement, and If refused to seize the custom houses and pay the bondholders out of the customs. The Guatemalans announce that they will appeal to the United States for protection. Despatches from San Francisco on the 11th state that mail -advices from Guatemala confirm the reports of an approaching crisis in the Central Amer ican republic. That the dissatisfaction will lead to a revolution against the administration of President Cabrera seems hardly likely, in view of the fat that there is no money in the c&untry to organize against anything approaching a formidable insurrection. Uprisings in the city are, however, expected, and. while they may not re sult in Cabrera's downfall, they will cause great loss to invested capital. It is by no means unlikely that foreign.' governments, especially the United States and Germany, and possibly Eng land, may be called upon to interfere, if they have not been requested to do so already. ."
