The part PLAYED by the American steamship

comment. The fact is that Nuilla and CAPT

Strangely enough. the men never crossed

could not have been owing TO cowardice. for
both have since displayed evidence OF reckless
bravery. However. it Is stated that on one &C.
casion Capt. PHzatti had circular letters prin tod
in New Orleans denounciug Nuilla rs a coward
and sneak. and had them distributed among the
merchants and officials of Spanish Honduras.
Nullia, II Is said. never resented this act. but
the fact has been published that Capt. Pizzatti
would not enter Ceiba while Nuilla held forth
there, stating that 1t was not his intention TO 20
there and he shot.
Ii is stated on reliable authority that. 40 bitter

of money to Gen. Munios. the commandante Of
the Port Of TruNiilo. but since dead. 10 use his
influence TO have Nuilla removed from power
The sum paid is said 20 have been
$1,000. and, through collision with Presi-
dent Bogran, Gen. Munios had Nuilla re-
moved. He was subsequently transferred from
TruXillo TO Ceiba. and became commanaante u
that place.
Nuilia was a man OF personal magnetism. lie
had many influential friends in Ceiba and was
idolized by a certain portion of the people. lie
called his friends and supporters together after
his removal from Office and melted the reyolu-
ton which ended 50 disastrOusly 10 his hopes.
Ii is stated that the possibility OF a duel
between Capt Henry Pizzatti and Gen. Nuilla
excited the wife Of the latter 20 such an extent
that she became i'll and died in a few weeks.
This is the hslftold story that has far been
given out Ii has many phases, and will prob
ably never be known in its entirety.
Pizzatti is now a general in the Hondurean
army, and Nuilia will he an exile. devoid Of
home and almost devoid Of friends, if it is true
that Bogran has triumphed.
Ills future movements will be watched with
interest. He is well known 20 many in New
Orleans who visited Celba. They saw that his
handsome face and reckless carriage were more
noticeable than anything else on the streets VI
that city.
