ANOTHER EXPEDITION" SAILS FROM NEW

1t appears that a second shipment of filibus-
tiers sailed from New York last Thursday to aid
those who went on the steamer City of Mexico,
as told in Saturdays STAR. Thursdays ship

was made up of toughs from the fourth ward of

Aurello Soto once president OF Honduras, who
instgaed tue fiilbusterlng expeditions, lives in
is said to be worth several million dollars. He
was driven out of Honduras by Gen. Barrios,
came president OF Honduras, and, according to
Soto, has since been prosecuting the latters
friends The heads OF the revolution down in
Honduras were urging Soto to come back and
Gen. DelgardO who came to New York with
number of Honduranians, who were exiled as
Delgardo had been, urged Mr.. Soto to go back
with him. Mr.. Soto would not, but did what
he could in the way OF furnishing ways and
means to help Delgardo along. The steamship
stir things up. She had on board Gen. DelgardO
and just twenty-five men,, mostly Hondura-
rams. Then the second shipment of men was
Mr.. Baiz, the consul OF Honduras in New York,
said last night that he had received a letter
from Washington, which announced on the part
of the government that the fourth warders
would not be allowed to terrify Central Amer
lea. They would be sat down upon probably by
an American cruiser, which would be sent alter
the City OF Mexico, as a Honduras cruiser has
already been sent. Mr.. Baiz said, though, that
ut nOt tulnk tndL dOnOufaS was III any
very great danger. MIR. Soto, he thought, made
a mistake in measuring himself with Gen. Bro
gan, who was much the better man. He said
that, OF course, the entire expedition was
planned and carried out by Mr.. Soto, who
owned the City of Mexico, and put up all the
money.
A vessel at New Orleans reports that great

The Heaviest Snow Storm.

To the Editor of The EVENING STAR
WAsHINGTON, ID. c., February 5, 1886.
In THE STAR of the 4th instant it is stated
that the snow storm Of Wednesday and yester-
day was the heaviest Washington had expe-
rienced since January 1, 1877. Now we had a
pretty severe storm February 4, 1882, which,
according to the figures, was heavier than
either of those above mentioned, as the follow
ing extract from THE STAR of February 6,
1882, Will prove: 1.-THE snow tall at Washington
Is recorded at .3S inches. This measurement
means melted snow or the equivalent of the
snow in RAIN This would indicate, according
To the signal office system of measuring, depth
of 1873 inches. The depth of the snow fall of
January i, 1877, is given as II inches and a
fraction, and that of Wednesday and yesterday
as 12.5 inches.
/ write this for the benefit of others who, like
myself. may be keeping a record of our big
snow storms for the benefit of pOsterity; and
with the idea that when i, too, shall have be-
come an "oldest inhabitant,' can have the
figures as well as my memory to fall back upon.
Respectfully yours, q.
