yoL. VIT. TROUBLE THREATENED. fie Prociamat on of Barrios Declar- jeg Himself Dictator of Central America May Cause Serious Trouble pa Invove the United States, Mexico and European Powers in an Unpleasant Controversy. | ——_.+——- Washington, D. U., March 12.— To those conversant with all facts in regard to the speck of war which has arisen in Central America, the mat— ter is considered of tar graver im- portance than the size of the countries directly involved wou!d make at. The fact is, 1f Barrios persists in his assumption of dictatorship, not only will Mexico take a lively band in the scrimmage, as indicated by President Diaz’ energetic pronuncia- mento, but the United ‘States can warcely avoid taking a hand in it, with the by no means remote proba- bility of European intervention, at least diplomatically, and bringing up the Monroe doctrine again for adjudication, poss bly of arms be- tween the United States and one or more European powers. In that event the little ructions now going on in Madagascar, Egypt and China, and threatened in Afghanistan would cut a very small figure indeed. The understanding in diplomatic quarters here is that Barrios is inspired by France, and possibly also by Eng- land, in order to render a completion of the Nicaraguan canal impossible, and it 18 readily understandable how acasus belli is liable to arise any as his salary is the sum total. This day if Barrios’ troops go charging through Nicaragua, which would gana EGE by the priate this vear lies before me, open ited States: “A thing which adds 5+ the page relating to the president. tothe probability that British in- fluence is at work there is the fact in addition to his salary of $50,000 { ty over. that Honduras has conceded Barrios’ pretensions. Diaz’ readiness to throw down the glove to Parrios is also attributed to American fluence. Jav Gould has a scheme on foot to build a railroad nght down through these troubled states into South America. The money king has been wise enough to secure Diaz to him by strong ties, and diplomats here see Gould back of Diaz’ herce Froclamation. In this connection President Cleyeland’s actior this afternoon in sending a message to the senate for the purpose ot with drawing the Spanish and Nicaragua treaties has a deep significance. Barrios’ proclamation has led friends of the Nicaragua treaty to urge its immediate ratification by the senate. President Cleveland evidently does not want this done just now, and, to Provide against all contingencies, Proposes to get it into his own hands 48 Soon as possivle. Whether it is for the purpose of negotiating for more favorable terms from Nicara- gua, or with a view ot suppressing in- the matter entirely until congress convenes next December, and doing whatever he can to keep out ot the bad mess in which the repub hean administration has been involv- ed through the stupidity of Arthur and his dotage cabinet, rema so s to be seen, but the belief is expressed in diplomatic circles to-night that neither of these bunzlesome treaties will again be scen by senators durit A Wis religious matters, rer Moses was the man who } ‘ lowed by the he £Dnutler BUTLER, MISSOURI.
