OUR AMBASSADOR SO INFORMED.
Salvador Guarantees lo Pay the Indemnity Claimed by Great ltritain From the Nicii raj iii Government Within a Fortnight—A Revolution Feared in Nicaragua A: tor This Is Settled
niXGTOX, May 3.-The depart- I
ment of state received yesterday afternoon a telegram from Ambassador yard at London, stating that Great Britain has accepted the guarantee made by Salvador of the payment of the indemnity by Nicaragua in London within a fortnight, and that so soon as Nicaragua contirms and so informs the British admiral, the admiral is instructed to leave Corinto.
The above official statement given out at the state department after 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, may be regarded as chronicling the passage of the acute phase of the difficulty between Great Britain and Nicaragua, which at one time perhaps threatened to involve the United States. It can not bo doubted that Nicaragua will promptly coniirm the arrangement and the British fleet will leave Corinto as soon a. notice of the action of the British foreign office can be communicated to Admiral Stephenson, which by the way, might be sooner, had not the Nicaragnans purposely interrupted the communication by cable directly between the foreign office and the admiral.
The guarantee by Salvador of Nicaragua's indebtedness, it is said, is simply repayment of the favor extended to Salvador by Nicaragua at the time of the Ezeta incident, when Dr. Guzman, the .Nicaraguan minister at Washington, took up the ease of Salvador by instructions of his government, and worked so hard to secure the extradition of the refugee to Salvador. In addition to this consideration, based on gratitude, the Salvadoreans are supposed to be inlluenced in espousing the Nicaraguan cause by a feeling of apprehension at the presence of British troops on Central American soil. It is quite certain that all of the countries of Central America have been deeply impressed with some such fear.
It is felt here that the Nicara*»tan incident may, perhaps, be the direct means of bringing about again the long-expect-ed revival of the union of Central American republics, the small republics now existing having been brought to a realization of their inability to project themselves in a conllict with any considerable power.
Although it may be safely assumed that the acute phase of the Nicaraguan incident has passed, supposing there should be no hostile collision before the formal orders have reached the commanders on each side, there are yet some matters to be adjusted before the incident can be regarded as entirely closed.
After the settlement of the "smart money" claim, on account of the treatment of Hatch, a commission must be selected and proceed to adjudicate the claims of other British subjects, not officials, who were expelled from Bluefields at the time of the outbreak last summer, and if this commission assesses damages against Nicaragua on this score, there may ipo some grumbling bofore the account is settled. This is not likely to lead to serious trouble, but the Nicaraguans, smarting under the sense of oppression in this case (for they declare that Hatch never had an exequatur and so was never recognized by them as a British official), may be counted on to do everything they can without giving cause for an open rapture to give their patronage in the future to any other nation than Great Britain.
It is just within the bonds of possibility, too. that the old question of British rights in the Mosquito reservation may arise again at some future day, for it is recalled here that General Barrios, who went to London as a special commissioner from Nicaragua to come to an understanding with Great Britain on this subject and to secure a revision of the treaty of Managua, by which tho British x-lght of protectorate over the reservation was recognized, was met by a polite but positive refusal on the part of Lord Kimberly to even enter upon a discussion of the subject until Nicaragua had first adjusted the claims growing out of the improper treatment of British citizens at Blueflelds. Thus the subject was left in abeyance, though if it should arise again it is probable that the United States would this tiru* side with Nicaragua in the contention that the Mosquitoes, by formal act in convention last summer in merging their territory into the body politic of Nicaragua, had absolutely terminated the British protectorate.
Dr. Guzman, the Nicaraguan minister here, received the news from the state department late in the day. "I am much gratified with the result," said he, "but now that it is all over, I don't mind saving I was quite apprehensive up to the time the official message came from Mr. Bayard. There is no doubt thav the affair is at an end, as no circumstance can now intervene to prevent the execution of the agreement. The suggestion that Nicaragua has yet to accept is a formality, as she has already accepted, and, in fact, has urged the agreement through her representatives. But. such further assurances as are necessary^ would be given. The payment of the money Is beyond question. Nicaragua's word is sufficient, but. in addition there is assurance of Salvador."
Dr. Guzman was asked what further steps would be taken. "There is only one more step," said he, "and that, is for the British ships to •ail from Corinto. I expect that will occur on Saturday."
As the interview closed Dr. Guzman said: "One thing I want to emphasize and that is my appreciation of the consideration shown me and my government by the state department. The kindly manner in which Secretary Gresham and all the officials have treated the subject at a time of emergency is a source of congratulation to me and certainly will be to my government when the facts become known."
Dr. Guzman sent a lengthy cable to his government informing them of Great Britain's acceptance. It will be glad news to the little republic.
The other Central American diplopia ts joined with Dr. Guzman in cou-
sh*nfiliations, for' 'the affair is one in which they have hud a common intorest. Senor Lazo Arriaga of Guatemala said: "The settlement' is highly satisfactory to all Central American states, for anything affecting Nicaragua, affects them all."
Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British ambassador, expresses satisfaction that the complication is at an end. The ambassador was not officially advised from London as the foreign office has not been keeping the embassy informed on the varying stages of the affair. From the British point of A'iew it is now conclusively established that there has never been a substantial foundation for the

MAY BE A REVOLUTION.
Dissatisfaction Existing Among the Jficaragusiiis Over This All'air. MAXAGUA, May 3.—Advices received here from the commander of the Nicaragua forces at Paso de Cabellos, a short distance from Corinto, say that so far as known at the Nicaraguan headquarters the British force under Rear Admiral Stephenson has not made any further demonstration beyond removing the rails l'rom tlie National railroad, communicating with Corinto, in order, it is presumed, to guard against a surini.se upon the part of the troops of the republic. The latter are animated by feelings of the most intense animosity against Great Britain, and they are asking to be led to the attack. it is believed, however, that there will be no further trouble, as it is known from the highest sources that the government, of Nicaragua is expecting news from Washington of a settlement of the dispute between Nicaragua and (.Ireat. Britain regarding the indemnity demanded by the latter country as the result of the expulsion from the republic of certain British subjects who had made themselves obnoxious to the government.
Although the British forces have not made a 113* attempt to leave Corinto for the interior of Nicaragua, the manner in which the British governor of Corinto, Captain Trench, of the flagship lioyal Arthur, treated two proninent Nicaraguans Wednesday, is well calculated to still further increase the feeling against Great Britain. The two gentlemen alluded to, belonging to leading families of Nicaragua, were detailed by the government to make certain communications to the British governor and with this object in view they succeeded in crossing from the mainland into Corinto, where they sent a messenger to Captain Trench informing him that they desired to confer with him as the representative of Admiral Stephenson in regard to certain matters of importance connected with the British occupation of Corinto.
The object of the Nicaraguans in requesting that the interview take place at the office, of the Italian consul, was that they desired to avoid officially recognizing Captain Trench as governor of Corinto. The British Qfficer, however, refused to go to the office of the Italian consul, and informed them that if they desired to see tho governor of Corinto they were to come to his (Captain Trench's) office. This the Nicaraguans refused to do, and when the British captain was notified of this fact he sent them a message ordering them to lea-e the island instantly under the pemdty erf being driven out by force. The exact object of the visit of the Nicaraguan officials to Captain Trench is not known here.
ZELAYA'S TYRANNY.
Nicaragua's President Helped to Ilring About the ICevoil. NKW YORK, May 3.—Passengers on the steamship Columbia, which has reached here from Colon, report that Nicaragua is in a ferment over President Zelaya's arbitrary rule. One passenger, who hopes to return to Nicaragua, and therefore does not wish his name used, said: "A revolution is preparing in Nicaragua. Plans for Zelaya's overthrow are well under way, and when the coffee crop is harvested there will be an uprising throughout the country. "Zelaya's policy in the expulsion of Hatch was outrageous. When Barrios returned from his useless mission to England, President Zelaya kept secret from everyone the fact that the minister had failed. Even when British warships were moving toward Corinto, Zelaya had hoodwinked the people that derided the report that the British intended to occupy the town. When the British warships did arrive they were amazed. "One of the president's latest acts of persecution, it is alleged, was the brutal treatment of a son of ex-Presi-dent Zavala, at Granada. While young Zavala was at a theater the place was surrounded by soldiers ho was taken out, and while his mother and wife stood by the soldiers first searched, then beat him."
Other passengers say two agents of the revolutionary party on their way to France, were on the Columbia. They also declared that the shipments of 140,000 cartridges on the City of Para to Guatemala is significant, in view of the present situation in Nicaragua.

CUBAN WAR RAGING
Battles Being Fought at Different Places Every Day.
INSURGENTS GENERALLY WIN.
One of the Uiggest Uattles of the War Fought at Jaraguata—Two Hundred of the Cubans Killed While the Spanish
Loss Was Nearly Five Hundred—Conflicting War News. TAMPA, Fla., May 3.—Passengers arriving on the Plant steamship confirm the account of the Cuban victory. They assert that General Maximo Gomez, with the forces of Pique Perz and General Maceo, numbering
2,500
infantry
and 300 cavalry attempted to invade the province of Camaguay. While 011 their march General Salcedo hastened with 3,500 troops to intercept and prevent the Cuban invasion. They met at Jax-a-guata, the Cubans surprising the Spanish troops.
The Cubans surrounded their enemy and seven times charged svith their machettes. The Spaniards finally entrenched themselves and mi'.de a stubborn resistance. During the conflict 200 Cubans were killed and wounded while the Spanish loss was between 400 and 500. Two hundred of the Spaniards were captured. The Cubans then proceeded 011 their march to Camaguay. This occurred 011 the 23d.
The passengers positively assert that the Cuban republic was formed at Palenque about, a week ago. Tomas Estrada Palma is said to have been named as president, Jose Marti as foreign minister and secretary and Maximo Gomez as general in command of the whole army. Tomas Palma is now in New York. He was the last president of the Cuban republic and was made prisoner while such. He has never resigned, has not been removed, nor has a successor been appointed.
A vice president has probably been appointed who will act for him until he can make his way to the island, or possibly a new election may be called at which a president maybe elected should Palma find it difficult to accept a continuance of the honor.
THIS IS DIFFERENT.
Insurgents Defeated, hut This Is From a Spanish Source. HAVANA, May 3.—The government has information of an encounter 011 the Bandera plantation, in Santa Ana, between a detachment of Spanish troops, under Colonel Sandoval, and a band of rebels led by Chief Quintin. The insurrectionists are said to have been defeated. Subsequently Colonel Sandoval and his men, near Mogote mountain, 'n eastern Cuba, had a fight with another band of rebels in which the insurrectionist leaders, Marcos and Ramirez, were killed.
Ramirez is believed to be the rebel of that name who was previously reported to have surrendered himself to the iuthorities.
News is received of the dispersing of a group of 50 rebels near Baraco, three being reported wounded.
Sympathizes With Cuba.
ALBAXY, May 3.—Tho state senate yesterday adopted a resolution proposing that the senate and assembly of the state of New York extend to the patriots of Cuba their sincere sympathy and in their fight for liberty, "ami that we re- 1 spectfully but urgently request the prosident of the United States to take proper steps to insure to the citizens and soldiers of Cuba the rights of belligerents under the rules of modern warfare."
llritish War Vessel Ordered lo Cuba. ST. JOHNS, N. F., May 3.—The British cruiser Tourmaline, 12 guns, which has been acting as guardslnp here, ha.s been ordered to proceed to Cuba with the utmost dispatch for the purpose of protecting British subjects whose liberty is jeopardized by the revolution there. She will sail at midnight.
DASTARDLY OUTRAGE.
A XcjfTo I'iniHMl Down in a Crock ami L.eft tw J/ic. ATLANTA, May 3.—From Butts county, in the central portion of the state,
Colonel Chapman of the internal revenue department has sent a report to Washington detailing the particulars of the outrage. The government will investigate the. case, and those who had a hand in torturing and murdering the negro, who had the reputation of being a lawabiding citizen, will be brought to the bar of justice.
Two of th» Dalton Gang Shot. GUTHRIE, O. T:, May 3.—The dead bodies of "Slaughter Kid" and Charlie Pierson, brother of Tulsa Jack, both notorious members of the old Dalton gang, were brought to this city yesterday. They were waylaid by Sam Shaffer, deputy United States marshal, near Ingalls, and both wero brought down.with unerring aim. The bodies still have the revolvers and cartridge belts just as found on them when killed. They were caught' in their old rendezvous on the edge of the creek country, east of Ingalls. They are among the toughest of the Dalton gang.
1 A Caahler Taken His Life. OMAHA, May 3.—William H. Megquies, assistant cashier of the First National bank, committed suicide Thursday by shooting himself through the head at the residence of Gedtge Barker, president of the National Bank of Commerce. No cause is known for the »jed.
1
comes a story of a dastardly outrage that smacks of ku-klux days and rnoun- I tain fastnesses. Tom Brownlee was a negro revenue informer. He had been 1 known as such in the community in which he lived. His neighbors, in fact, knew him as a man who had gained his livlihood by exposing those secrets, tho hiding of which had concealed many a moonshiner's lair, and many an iUicit distiller's tree-covered laboratory.
Wednesday, in a creek which runs I through the hills of Butts countv, the body of a negro was found. Pie was 1 pinned down in the bed of the creek by saplings staked to tho ground, there to die alingeriug death of fearful pain and suffocation. He was dead, and it was discovered by his friends that i£ was the body of Tom Brownlee, the negro informer. The story was told that White Cappers had perpetrated the terrible crime.
THE BALLET SKIRT.
It IK a Fussy Frilled Petticoat and Btay Be Adapted to Ordinary Wear. The fussy frilled petticoat known as the ballet skirt is now worn by fashionable women under evening and dance gowns, but nearly reaching tho ground. First, there is a close fitting yoke of mo»lin, which is cut in four parts and reaches well below the average corset and very much below the short corset worn for skirt dancing. On to this yoke is set in full gathers or flat plaits a wide skirt of tho muslin, edged with a frill of lace put on slightly full. This skirt reaches from the yoke to tho full
depth required, and over it at the line another skirt is simulated by a deep frill, also edged lace, and put 011 so that tho bottom edge is half an inch above tho edge of tho under lace, thus giving an extra full and ample offect. When worn, so wide is this skirt that it gives the appearance of a multitude of lace petticoats, and tho dancer usually catches the center with a safety pin or a few stitches about 10 or 12 inches below the yoke and practically converts it into a divided skirt. These ballet skirts aro also made for ordinary wear in dark silk.
SfiS A Distinguished Woman Oculist. Dr. Charlotto Ellaby, opthalmio surgeon to tho London New Hospital For Women, Euston road, has won no small personal distinction by her lato achievement. At tho requost of H. H. the Jam. Sahib of Jamnagar, Dr. Ellaby went lately to India in order to operate upon the maharani for cataract. Both eyes were operated upon in turn, and both operations wero completely successful. A correspondent in India says: 'Tho maharani is naturally delighted at recovering her sight, and her joy is shared by all her household, as well as by the English women who have tho pleasure of tho acquaintance of one of tho mosfr charming of the Rajput ladies, beloved for her genial manners and esteemed for her unaffected and sincere piety." Dr. Ellahy's services wero retained at tho suggestion of Mr. and Mrs. W. S. McClelland, who, for long years resident in Jamnagar (Mr. McClelland, being state engineer there), are the tried and trusted friends to whom his highness tho Jam Sahib turns when trouble invades his household. Dr. Charlotto Ellaby has returned to England.—London.
Itiake Over Tiieir Dresses.
There aro often good fashions growing out of national disasters. At tho timo of the French revolution the style of wearing tho hair high on the head was begun and was designated as "a la guillotine." Apropos of this tho fashion of tho present has entirely done away with tho idea that one must appear in a fresh toilet every timo one goes to a function of any soi-t. Mrs. Cleveland and tho ladies of tho cabinet set tho admirable example last winter of wearing tho same gown as often as tho humor dictated. At tho White House receptions Mrs. Olney, Mrs. Carlislo and indeed all of tho cabinet ladies have worn tho same gown more than once and havoeven resuscitated the toilets of last year and subjected them to some brightening up and alteration, which, though perhaps not apparent to the ordinary observer, has not escaped the eye of those who know tho gowns and tho women well. It is now quite allowable for a socioty writer to state that "Mrs. Blankenblink wore her most becoming gown" and to describe the familiar toilet. And hy not?—Washington Capital.
Julia Ward Howe.
Mrs. Julia Ward Howe has been writing poetry for nearly 60 years. Although this remarkable woman has passed her seventy-fifth year, sho ha» the presence, the demeanor, tho expression, tho voico and the step of 50. Sha has a handsome face, is in vigorous health, gives heed to the art of dress and is far more lively than are most women at her time of life. She is the mother besides of Mrs. Richards, Mrs. Maud Howe Elliott and the lato Mrs. Julia Anagnos, each of whom is well known in the world of letters. Mrs. Howe is,also the sister of Marion Craw ford's mother—quite a galaxy of talent 4 tQ.be related to .by immediate ties of blood, not to mention the late Sazn Ward, gpiourp, and Beau Ward MoAl* lister.It was of Mrs. Howe, by the way, that Oliver Wendell Holmes happily remarked on -her seventieth birthday, "She is 70 years young."
