(Hy Leased Wire to The Times.)
Mexico City, July 3. Dispatches
received here slate that many of the
leading citizens of Guatemala whom
President Cabrera caused to bo
throwii into prison, have been con
demned to death. The prisoners
were taken without warning ami
were herded; In squad:-, of twenty
and tried in groups' on the charge of
complicity in the recent ' attempt to
assassinate Cabrera. It is said the
prisoners, all of them prominent,
have Ion? been on Cabrera k black
list and taut the charges against
them were trumped up to cause
their arrest.
Intervention ol the powers, niav
result from the arrests and orders
of execution. I he entire diplomatic
corps, with the exception of Philip
M.' Drown, the I lilted Slates charge,
protested to the president against
his high-itnn.led methods. They

A Iteigu of Chaos.
Chaos reigns in Guatemala. Dis
patches state that farm hands are
being pressed Into military service,
crops are rotting in the fields, the
rich are plundered for funds, and
ruin threatens them unless they aid
in Cabrera's designs. Troops are be
ing rusnea 10 uie mcAitiiu : uuiun
and the Honduran and Salvadorean
borders as well. Refugees are pour
ing intp Mexico, and, while a day or
so ago they were possessed of great
wealth, they are now practically
paupers through the machinations
of the Guatemalan officials. They
are enroute to the United States and
the various cities in Europe.
Dispateiies touay state mat uua
temala explains the erection of de
fenses on the Mexican frontier as a
precaution to repel any revolution
ary invasion from that quarter, but
this Is accepted in the republic' as
a blind. The real object is declared
to be preparation for an emergency
resulting from a declaration of war
on the part of Mexico.
Desire Intervention, .
. Central Americans Here are aux
louslv awaiting news of a military
movement to quell the reign of
terror in their various . republics.
They declared .that intervention on
the part of Mexico had been delayed
too long, and that the gravity of the
situation is made plain by fresh out
rages, and that there will be but one
course to pursue. The dream of a
United States of Central America
they declare, is so vague and so un
likely to come true that the present
movement will result in nothing
more than (lie ruination of the. best
and most wealthy citizens and use
less bloodshed.
Attention has been drawn to the
uiuuuiesa viuiuiy ui ctuuiufeiiu urn
the principal seapoart in Salvador.
Not a shot was fired. .When Gen
eral Manuel Rlvas landed his men
from the gunboat Momotombo, the
officers of the garrison, it is said,
had already been prepared for the
attack by presents of gold. The en
tire campaign was one of the dollar.
Rivaa had no difficulty In advancing
and taking Sansoate In the same
manner. The latest news is that
three Nirnrnenan eunboats are be
ing put In readiness and troops will
soon march on the border.
Illiteracy of the peoplo and the
ever-living Jealousy of ambitious
leaders are regarded as the greatest
assurance that the United States of
Central America can never bo a re
ality. Pictures to JnineKtown.
Col. F. A. Olds Is today collcctlm?
pictures from the state library and the
executive mansion, to be sent to the
Jamestown Exposition. About eighty
will be sent and these may be seen
