SAN FRANCISCO , Aug. 8.-Tilo l'aciflc
mail steamer City of Panama irrlved t6day
from La Libertad , with a cargo consisting
principally of coffee. Business in Central
America is exceedingly duil. Gold Is very
scarce and the depreciation in value of all-
ver has greatly reduced the wealth of the
npuiatIon. Everything Is purchased out-
stile and notiting to speak of is manufac-
tured. Labor is paid In silver , but the wages
remalO the same as when silver was almost
at a parity with gold.

great deal of trouble , as capital is gradually
being driven from rich fields , in which It

forded protection of property anti stability
of values. However , it Is charged that am-
bltious adventurers in the United States and
malcontents at home are responsible for a
good ninny stories of "revolutions" that
