THE OM ATT A SUNDAY HER: JANUARY 10, 1013. Salvador Soon to Be Connected by E (Copyright, mi. by Frank (5. Cmrenter.) SQV1NTLA, auH(omala.-I am tviitltn,' tlits letter ut Ksqulntla, Guatemala. It la tho 'blBgMt town between the capital and the soacoast. It Ilea on t'.ia Guatemala Central railroad some distance north of Santa Maria, the Junction where tho Pan-American road will cross the Ccntml on Its way to Pan ama. Tho Pan-American line Is now praotlcally completed from Santa MarU to Mexico, and tho plan Is to- extend tlio load southward to Bantti Ana In Salwi. dor. The dlntanco bctwrcn theso two towns Is less thnn 100 miles, and we shut then have railroad connection between Salvador and the fnlted Ktntr-s. n American syndicate will probably build this road, and the same syndicate hat plans for a line from Zncapa, on the Guatemala railway to connect with t"io Salvador system. TVhcn theso roads are finished Salvador will bo able to ship goods to Port Harrlos on the Caribbean sea and It will be within less than thr.ie days of Now Orleans I understand tho concessions for ths branches aro well under way nnd that their completion Is a matter of a very short time. These two roads will form a part of t Croat Central American railway system, tho chlpf owners of which arc Minor C. Keith and his associates, many of whom are connected with tho United Fruit com pany. Mr. Keith controls tho roads vt Costa Rica and also those of Guatemala, lie has large interests In Honduras, and also a grasp upon the railways of Nicaragua. The road from Santa Maria to Santa Ana was originally granted to Rene Keilhauer, but It Is now In the (names of Minor C. Keith and Bradley M. Palmer. The line from Santa Anaa to, IZacapa Is also said to be backed by Mr' Celth. It will bo aoventy-nlne miles lon nd its gaiigo will be standard. Salvador Uallwnyn. As It Is now, Salvador has just about 123 miles of railways and these belong to a British company. Its lines were (built with British capital, although they have a number of American engines and cars. Some of the locomotives aro Bald wins, and a number of tho cars wero (manufactured in Philadelphia. At pres ent the company Is building Its own coaohea. These roads connect the port of Aca-1 jjutla with tho thriving town of Santa Ana, and aloo with the capital nt San '.Salvador. The company owns an Iron ,jler at Acajutla, which cost over $1,000,- I 1KB to build, and It has a line of steam ers, which plies along the coast running to Honduras. Nicaragua and as far piorth as SalUui Cruz in Mexico. These feteamcrs carry the Salvador malls north ito Tehauntepee, cutting down the postal time bctvveen Salvador and Europe to (only a little over two weeks, whereas it used to be one month. They enable one jto go to Salvador from hero every fow days. With tho completion of tho (Panama canal, tbo traffic of Acajutla will bo greatly Increased, and the road (will be a very valuable, property. The trospect Is that It will eventually go into he hands of the American syndicate. Smallest of American Ill-public. These railways will bring Salvador into close connection with tho United States. It Is, one Of the most Interesting countries an this continent. Great parts ot Guate mala are savage, wild and unpopulated". Salvador is more thickly settled than most parts of our union. It has an area less than that of" Massachusetts and its Inhabitants number 3,000,000. If I the (United States wore as thickly populated It would have more than four times as many people as now, and If our soli throughout wero as rich wo would have (wealth beyond tho dreams of avarice, balvador has two ranges of mountains, (which are rich in iron, copper and lead nnd In gold and silver as well. As It Is how, its mlnoral exports are between i',000,000 and $3,000,000 a year, and the total exports, including coffee, tobacco iiKl sugar, are more than $9,000,000. The bulk of the exports go to the United States. Franco nnd Germany, iwhilu the most of the Imports come from the Urltlsm and us. The Germans, who havo Jess than $500,000 of tho exports pnd alwut the name of tho Imports, have large financial interests, and they are koine what they can to capture the trudo. American Trade In Sal-vndor. Indeed, It behooves tho Americans to lie up and doing as to Central America, a find the Cicrman3 everywhere, and the iBritlsh have long had a hold on the "various countrie-Hl As It la now Great OJiltalit is supplying twice aa much cot ton to Salvador as wo do, and It is (crowding us close !n l-ardwaro and In certain kind of machinery.

FalVador Is different from the other Central American states in that It Is Whldcd up Into sin ill Terms. There are .many landholders, and nearly every fam ily owns its own homo farm. The soli is fertile and tho rainfall abundant. Where are thousands of little coffee plan tatlons, many indigo farms and hero and there a field of green sugar cane. Tho government Js doing all it can to encourage farming and it has estab lished a school of agriculture, which has an experimental farm situated on tho sides ot the mountains, .ubout 1,300 feet above tho sea. This farm is between fionsomte, the second city ot the re public, and Izalco. It is not far from AcaJu'tlH. upon a little tableland, on the highest part of which aro the school building and laboratory. Experiments nia being mado tliere In coffoo and fugar planting, an! also In cattle breed ing and dairying Tho school sends out bulletins of information somewhat as our sgricultural department does, although on an Infinitely smaller scalp. Coffee nml ludlKo. Coffee and indigo are the two chief fcrops of Salvador. Tho coffeo product mounts to something like 9,000,000 pounds nd It brings the highest of prices. The trees srow in all parti of the republ'c bitwecn 1.300 and 4,050 feet above oa level. Tho plants are grown In seedbeds kind are set out when they have been well sprouted. They begin to produce at about three years. It costs from 5 to 6 cents a pound to raise the coffee nnd it sells at Jxtall from 10 cents to 35 cents a pound, oyer half the crop being consumed at fcoiA. I am told that that which i sent Kai 23kmi Ara-uia abroad brings very high prices, and the Central Americans think Salvador ooffeo better than that of Brazil and superior to the coffeo of Jamaica or Java. Indigo grows almost everywhere, and '.t once was 'the chief export of the coun try. It Is produced from a plant wblan flourishes upon neatly all soils. The ground Is first burnt over and then scratched with the plow. Tho seed is scattered broadcast and the plants soon grow to tho height of your head. They arc then cut and the Indigo extracted by xoaklng them in water In vats. It takes about 100 pounds of the green plants to produce four, flvo or six ounces of Indigo. The business is not so profitable as it was In tho past, when as much as 1.S00.WK) pounds were'produced in ono year, a value equal to about $3,000,000. Tho output to day Is much less, tho Indigo dyo having been largely driven out of use by tho cheap anallne dyes. Perfumery from Snlvndor. Anothor queer Salvador export is tho balsam of Peru, whoso name reminds mo of that which Senator Palmer chose for his log cabin home oittsldo Detroit, tie called the place Font mil. and when asked why, replied that It was because It had no fountain and no hill. This Is the case with tho balsam ot Peru. It does not come from Peru, but from Sal vador, and this is ubout the only place where it grows well. This balsam' Is largely used In perfumery and medicines. It Is sometimes called cocoa balsam be cause it was once shipped In cocoanuts. It really comes from a great tree of tho tropical forests, which, when full grown is over a yard thick and froiri eighty to 100 feet high. The tree has a white bark and tho wood is hard and durable. It has white blossoms and Its fruit Is much like a bean pod, with a single seed. These trees grow In the forests and thd balsam Is collected almost altogether by Indians, who tap the trees In the winter by scraping off the bark In patches to the depth of one-tenth of an Inch. After this tho scraped places aro heated with burning torches and then covered with scraps of old cotton cloth. Ttio cloth sticks to the treo and in a day or two the sap has soaked Into it. Tho ragB are now taken off and boiled in big iron pots. They are then put under preesuro and the balsam Juice squeezed out. It mustxnow be refined and put up In cans for the market. The product is a grayish-red muss, which smells llko vanilla. It is Bald to be especially good for skin diseases and as an antiseptic, it sella for $2 or $1 a pound. The Cltlex of Stilt ndor. Oecretary Knox took a. run through Salvador during lils stay In Central America, and he has ' proclaimed It one of tho prettiest of our sister republics. Tho lowlands nnd sides of tho moun tains are covered with farms. The vil lages ore quaint and tho cities have many beautiful buildings. Tho biggest town U Santa Ana, with, about 34,000; then comes San Sulvador. about 32,000 and then San Salvador, 23 00O. Sonsonntc, whore tho railroad shops arc, has 12,000, and the port of lu. Llbertad Is almost as' large. The total city population, including towns rnnglng from 3,000 upward, is about 180,000. A Look- nt the CupHiil. The eanltal. San Salvador. Is one of the beautifully located towns of Contrul America. It lies in the foothills of the mountains, right under a magnificent vol cano and about 2,000 feet above the l'aeme ocean. In some respects it compares with Mexico City. Near it Is Lake Jlopango, a beautiful green sheet of water witn a linn nf ncrhass thirty miles. All tho counti-y about is volcanic and this lako formerly had Islands which eomo years ago dropped out of sight at the time of an earthquake, which another iBianu SOO feet In diameter rose out of tho lako to a height of 160 feet. At tho same tlnm tlie water became Intensely hot, although it is ordinarily cold. There aro now vil lages and hotels about llopanso and It Is tho favorite resort of San Salvador, The capital of the republic is well built. i. nrn wide and well paved, and nu tuihllr. offices compare with thoso of the great cities of Kurope. The now cathedral Is magnificent ana mo vvimw House, or Casa Blaneo, the university, the theater and tho National institute are worthy of mention. There aro fine nomes. rom-lstlne ot ono or two Btorlcs sur; loundlng open court r pathos. Most of those havo beautiful gardens and not , i.,. fmintaliis. The houses aro painted in bright colors and the roofs aro of tiles. Tho sldewalKS nrc i slabs or rocks from the quarries nearby and there are tramways which glvo a ten-mlnuto service. A new theater la now being built whloh Is subsidized by the city. It will cost about 1.000.000 francs and will seal 1,330. President Araujo. San Salvador has numerous parks, In wthch the people walk about during the evening when the bunds play. It is a great club center, and is the social huh ot the republic. It Is where tho presi dent lives ami whero congress moots. Tho present e-xeiutlvo Is Don Manuel Knrlque Araujo, who was vice presi dent under the last administration, and who, I am told, 1b very popular. He was elected by both parties and great things are expected of him. He is one of the young men of tho country and has The "jBa2sajsi Tree grows ojaTy dxj Sa2va.doT long been noted for his fairness on all public questions. Ho Is a physician by profession and Is well known as a sur geon. Ho Is also an Inventor having de signed some very delicate instruments, which aro now in common uso in the big hospitals of Europe. The CniiKrcKH nf Salvador. Tlie government of Salvador as Is the caso with all the Central American states, is modeled after that of our country. The republican government is divided Into threo branches, legislative, executtvo and Judicial. The legislature has but one house, which Is known as the na tional chamber of deputies. This consists of forty-two members who aro elected by twpular vote for a term of one year. All males havo the right to vote after they, reach tho age of IS, and they are compelled to do so. There is no mug wumplng or shirking tho polls In Sal vador. Tho executive branch consists of a president and vice president, who are elected by popular vote. Tho president is not eligible for re-election until four years nfter tho closo ot his term nnd he cannot succeed himself as vlccr president. Ho has his cabinet, consisting of four secretaries, each with a large number of clerks. The army- of Salvador Is smalH but quite large enough for the country. It numbers about 15,000 men as a regular force, 11,000 as a first reserve and -16,000 as a second reserve. In case of war. military service Is compulsory, and the country can put Into the field on short notice, something like SO.OOO men. Up-ln-Dnte Snnttntinn. Salvador is now becoming nllve to the new sanitation. Some of tho finest build lugs of the country are Its hospitals, among which Is that of Resales, which has an endowment of more than $4,000,000. This building Is situated at San Salva dor. It was bequeathed to the nation by Don Jose ltosales and was sustained by him during his lifetime. There' are other hospltnls at tho capital and also lit the chief towns, and something like 8,000 patients are treated In them every year. Not far from San ."Salvador Is n tuber culosis sanatorium, whero tho open-air treatment )s employed, and tho peoplj claim that they havo a less death rate from consumption than In any oth.ir Spanish-American capital. Tho number is a little over thirteen nor 10.0CO. whieh compares very favorably with Lima, the capital of Peru, which has over sixty two; Caracas, the capital ot Venezuela, which has sixty, and Rio de Janeiro and Santiago de Chile, each of whloh has thirty-eight. Tho mortality In Mexico City per 10,000 from this disease Is four teen and that of Montevideo, Uruguay, sixteen. FlKhtlni; the Hookworm. I have written of what the Costa Rlcans aro doing as to tho hookworm. They havo their doctors everywhere and they uiv greatly reducing the extent of the plagK'. In Salvador recently It seemed as thoiiKh tho country would havo an epidemic ot smallpox. The National Institute' Vaccination took up the matter and sup plied enough serum to vaccinate all : people. The work wiih much the Bnme nt that which wo did In Porto Rico at tn close of our war with Spain, when .v. vaccinnated 800,000 within a month or to. Tho Salvador work was so effective that "Within a few months smallpox was wiped out of the republic. This vaccination work was done largely by traveling doctors In connection with the Rosalcs hospital, which has a factory In which 1,000 tubes of vaccine an monthly prepared, in addition to this n great deal Is Imported from Franco and Switzerland, FRANK G.
