WASHINGTON, July 16 — Guate mals, Salvador and Hoogurss have ac cepted the tender of the good offices of the United States for a settlement of their national differences. Once wore President Roosevelt has thrown the weight of bis iufluence to ead a war. The governments of Sal vador, Guatemala and Honduras Lave agreed to quit fighting and submit to the peaceful arbitration of their differ shces, A tribunal compesed of disinterestsd nations or peace conferees represent ing the fighting uations will be called upon: te make a las treaty. It is stated that both Guate mals and Salvador have accepted in principle the propesition for a peace conferees the question of arbitratien would be a subject of future considera- tion. A fortuight ago there was » dls- pesition on the part of the belligerents to arbitrate. The question them was whether Guatemala injured Baiva- dor by harboring Insurgents oo her ter ritory or whether Salvador by dolog the same thing had Injured Guatemals, but the recent battle with the death of General Regalado, the former president of Salvador and the leader of the Sal- vadorean troops, changed the situation. It is pointed out that ss no tersitorial or boundary question is in dispute the matter of Indemnity fer invasion of territory would be a main question be- fore the peace conference. The advices wegurding the Central American situation were forwarded te the president at Oyster Bay by Act. ing Becretary of Rtate Bacon, whe la in charge of state department affairs during the absence of Secretary Root Mr. Bacon made arrangements to leave Washington for Oyster Bay, carrying dispatches and other papers bearing on the situation to lay before the presi deat. This information is conveyed in iste special official dispatches received at the state department from the Ameri ean diplomatic representatives io Gua- temala and Salvador anneuncing that the belligerent countries have avalled themselves of the tender of the good offiges of the United States looking te thelr approaching each other iu a con- ference having in view an adjustment of thelr Adiffersuces, the cessation of hostilities and the briaging about of a lasting peace.

Tbe victorious army Salvador retained the positions cap- tured from be enemy.” Up to uow Houdurns has seemingly taken no part ln the difficulties be tween her neighbors. [leceat reports, bowever, declared her territory had been invaded by Guatemalan troops in pursuit of fugitives from the army of General Reguiado, the Salvadorean commander, who was killed. The trouble between Salvador and Guatemala Is an outcome of the prog: ress of the revolutionists in their efforts to oust Cabrern. They have invaded Salvadorean territory aml Guatemala claims have received actual support from that government The revolutionists appear so far to have had the best of it ; President Cabrera Is In fact a nsurper of office, his term having expired In 1805. He has followad, however, the example of many of his predecessors and lnsisted on holding office. . The fact that Honduras has been drawn Into the Central American con- flict complicates the situation. [t Is thought that President Boaills of Hou- dures may be compelled by President Zelaya of Nicaragua and President Escalon of Balvador, both of whom are sald to be enemies of Preside. sir da Cabrera of Guatemal, to take sides with them. Honduras, it Is reported, was provoked by President Cabrers when be furnished arms and financial ald te former President Juan Angel Arias and General Rivas to start a rev- olution in Honduras and Ralvador, where they enjoy great prestige.

Moreover those ou the In: side, who were aware that the uegotia- tious between the government aud the Constitutional Democrats were enter lug the final stage, naturally wers in fluenced by coming events. According to late reports, all the Questions of principle inveived in a chapge of ministry have been resolved, and pow It is werely a watter of per- sonalities.
