Greater Republic of Central America Officially Abandons the Silver Standard. (Ssn Fran else rtfspatch to the Chicago Tribune.) Mail advice from Guatemala give additional details concerning the financial crisis in Central America. "The Diet of the Greater Republic-Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua-has approved a decree Issued by the Legislature of Salvador suspending the amortization of the consolidated debt, the payment of Interest to be continued. This course it is stated la the preamble, is rendered Imperative by the existing financial crisis. In view of the instability of silver th decree also provides for the adoption of a gold monetary system, the change to be effected gradually.

For this purpose a law has been enacted making toe duties on Importation of general merchandise 52 per cent, ad valorem. Thirty-two per era, of such duties must be paid In United State gold. 10 per cent. In bond of th country, and 10 per cent, in bond of the mint. Exchange range from US per cent, premium to 200 per cent.

It la believed that the highest ha been reached and that It will soon drop, as Importation nave diminished to an alarming extent, and with the coffee crop, which is principally sold for gold to be drawn against. It is most likely that an improvement will soon set in. POULTRY SHOW. State AawcUdoa Decide to Have OmiI AlBsia Hall la lassary.
