It was learned yesterday that for the lasi three weeks agents of the French goreru merit have been quietly picking up an enOrmous amount of grain and meats. meats they have been buying in Virginia, southern Ohio, Kant-rick}, St. Louis and points along the border the smoked hog products, as the salted products of Chicago are but little knowu abroad. But it is for flour and wheat that. they have given their largest orders, amounting to 2,000,000 bar- rels of flour and 25,000,000 bushels of grain. ' An inquiry as to why the French gov ernment should be‘ secretly such a. buyer brought out this explanation: The govern- ment is in a delicate position in regard tc both grain and meat in France. rlces are high and the demand for .'1. removal oi tariffs is pressing. Yet the government does not like to directly let down the bars. The threatening aspect of European .af- fairs gives it a geod excuse to prov1510n itself strongly in advance—preparing f0] war in time of peace—and it knows as a matter of fact that those who buy latel must pay much higher prices for Ameri- can products.

Dictator uml Proclaims Martial Law—A Reign of Terror Suc- ceeds tho Days of Blood. CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 80.-—A revolu- tion has been precipitated 1n the r..-p.,:bli.' of Guatemala. A gentleman who left the city of Guatemala on the morning of the 16th inst, and who reached this city on horseback from the Mexican port of Acapulco yesterday, brings informa- tion that an outbreak occurred in Guate‘ main city on the 15th inst., and was still in progress when he left. It appears that the people were celebrating the anniver- sary of their national holiday and Presi‘ dent Barillas had personally appointed the orators of the day. To this the masses took exception, and when the orators took the rostrum it was the signal for a storm of stones which set them to flight, they being chased across the big plaza by a howling mob shouting, “Down with the government; down with dcspotism'and tyranny, die Barillosl” Stoned at Every Step. An exciting scene followed and every known Liberal and Barillas partisan was driven from the plaza, being soundly stoned at every step. The news of the riot spread rapidly and soon Barillas threw a. battalion of infantry into the large square for the purpose of dispersing the mob. They, with fixed bayonets, at- tempted to carry the plaza by assault. They were met. with ashowcr of stones and bullets from revolvers. This unex pected action of the mob put them to ig1 .4 fir «J3. nominious flight, lo a v i n ,9; many dead and wound- ed in the plaza. The uproar was something long to be remembered. Members of the mob shouted. “Let’s storm the national palace, .I, kill Barillas and " 1' restore a republia PRESIDENT BARILLAS. can form of gov. ernment. Guatemala should not be ruled by a. dictator. Plundering of the national treasury must cease.” .. The 11101) in Control. Barillas then ordered artillery into the plaza, and infantry and two cannon to guard his residence. W'hen the guns were turned on the mob there was a general dispersing of them. They discharged their revolvers at the artillerymen. They left the plaza, but fought in the side streets, in fact they practically, during the night of the 15th, hold full control Of the city. The reports of revolvers and rifles were to be heard all night, and at the hour the gentle man giving this information left. for San Jose de Guatema a to embark for Acapulco fighting was still in progress. Horillas Dictator. A special to The Anglo-American from Newton, on the line between Guatemala and Mexico, received in this city at 5 o’clock yesterday afternoon and delivered to that telegraphic station by special courier, brings information that Barillas is master of the situation, having put down the revolt in the city of Gautemala after three days of hard fighting. The arrival of troops from adjoining districts eventually restored Barillas to power, and the whole city is now infested with soldiers. Martial law has been declared. A private dispatch to a prominent mer- chant in this city, who has business rela- tions in the city of Guatemala, showed to your correspondent last night from New‘1 ton, says that fully 500 lives were sacri— ficed in the three days’ fighting, and that 0' President Barillas is still shooting down,“ the participants in the revolt:.=asiiffthéy-"“ The dispatch Jalso‘ ; conveys ' Were animals. the information that Barillas has declared himself dictator. A Reign of Terror. The city is under martial law. A reign of terror prevails, the inhabitants being afraid to leave their houses. A revolt has taken place at Quezaltenan- go, in which the revolutionary leader is re— ported to be supported by over 1,000 men. The palace and residence of President Ba. rillas are guarded by bothfinfantry and artillery. Barillas does not stir abroad unless guarded by a strong force of cav- alry. From another account it is learned that Colonel J obon, by an order of Barillas, killed Genera-l Sanchez and was imme diately made, by Barillas, commander of artillery. It followed that a. brother of General Sanchez, learning of his assassi- nation, weut to the place, which was sur- sounded by cannon, where J obon was sta- tioned, and shot and killed him. The press has con reprimanded, and not only the editors, but the proprietors are threatened; but, nevertheless, the newspaper articles continue to be very strong against the government.
