city
 . Pop. (1905) about 12, 000. Escuintla is locally celebrated for its hot
mineral
  springs. It is the commercial centre of a fertile
district
 , which produces
coffee
 , cane-
sugar
  and
cocoa
 ; it has also a brisk transit
trade
  in most of the products or vuatemala, owing to its position on the interoceanic railway between Puerto Barrios on the
