WASHINGTON Nov. 1.-The advices received
by the Department OF State from the scene OF
the last trouble In Honduras are to the follow
ing effect:

American ship, at Corinto Tin nicaragua for

been engaged In some insurrectionary move

was pending against him. After the ship had
received her clearance papers and while she
was leaving the port six or seven shots were

to bring her to 10 not clear.
In conformity with the usage Of the de-
partment there is no hint OF tho Secretary's
intentions in the matter. H. however. the
usual course 10 followed. tho department will
probably wait for full advices before taking
any action looking to redress. Besides. It is q
question whether the shots were directed

with American interests In these waters. The
United States steamship Alliance sailed to-
day from San Jose de Guatemala for AcajutlR.
Salvador. which is within days sail of Anna
pala. where the firing took place. Up to the
close Of Off ce hours to-day no orders had been
issued TO her commander. but he Ia under

trouble there.
The attitude Of our Government in such
cases as this has been pretty well defined In
several instances. notably that OF Gen. Bar
runda and MiJares. but in one case more
closely st i'll approximating the BOrilla case.
This is what is known as the GameH case.

to give up his passenger. and eventually
sailed without the usual permit. Proceedings
were instituted against Capt McCrae in the
Nicaraguan Court Of First Instance. which re-
suited in his acquittal. the court holding that
the Captain was not under the obligation to
deliver Gninez to the Nicaraguan authorities.
and that his refusal TO do so was no disresrect
to the latter. The case being referred to tho

The girl wondered. but went home without
asking further questions. She returned yes
terday morning. and the first thing she
noticed upon opening tho door OF the apart
ment was a great pool OF coagulated blood on
the floor Of the private hall. She rushed into
the bedroom and found her mistress lying on

neck. Upon tho floor beside her was big

by silver during the past week has attracted

reported to-day In London as 3-16d. per
ounce higher than yesterday. the figure to-day
being 30 0-16d. per ounce. The cause for this
strength is believed here to be due not to tenn
pOrary speculation. but TO a well grounded
opinion that tussin. in thu near future. will
adopt silver as a part Of her monetary system.
1t Ia stated In the Treasury Department that
