A FOREIGN INTRIGUE.



The Cause OF the Downfall OF the Rsvo-
fnrfon IN NscsraEus.
New YoRK. June 1.-THE Worlds
City of Mexico special says: The Next
can Financier says: The downfall of the
Sacazs government in Nicaragua appears
to have behind it an intrigue of foreign
interests, hostile to the continuance of
American control in the Nicaraguan ship
canal. When the canal was begun little
attention was paid to it, but now that it
is likely to be successful, the European
governments wish to have voice in its
control. MIR. Guzmsn, who represented
the late government of President Sacaza
at Washington, fevors an American pro.
tectorate in Nicaragua, but it seems to
us the moral influence of the United
States in Nicaragua is sufficient to main
tain the status quo. The Americans will
not permit the successful revolutionists
in Nicaragua to adopt policy hostile,
not only to American but Mexican in
terests. If the new government in Mic
aragua cancels the canal company's
concession, there will be serious trouble
and Sacaza may return to power.

Great Excitement Created Among the

Demanded.

MANAduA. June 1.-THE landing Of
marines and sailors from the American
warship Atlanta and the establishment
OF camp near the village of Santa Fe,
close to the canal, has caused the great
est excitement here, even exceeding that
which prevailed during the late revolu-
ton or upon the overthrow of
Sacazs. The explanation of the
American officials is that they merely
landed forces in order to protect canal
property. A large deputation Of citi-
zens has been chosen to demand an ex-
PLANTATION from the government.
A late rumor is that the United States
troops will be withdrawn. Activity has
been noticed In camp as if some move
was premeditated.

THE BORDEN TRIAL.


weak Obb6s
FALL RIVER, Mass, June 1l.--All day
long talk has been plentiful on the Bor-
den murder, and there is no denial that
it is the general opinion that the prose-
cution thus far has presented a very
weak case. This opinion is strength
ened by rumora current here to the
effect that Lizzie Bordsn's counsel will
shortly explode bombshell in the camp
of the authorities. The defendants
lawyers do not attempt to disguise their
Joyful feeling because of the present
status OF the case, and the girls friends
here are jubilant. The Ratchet incident
with the accompanying denials, is
source of much comfort. But while the
prisoners friends are buoyant, the
spirits of the police authorities are by
no means downcast.

FRESNO. July 1.-The defense in the
trial of Richard S. Heath for the murder
of McWhirtsr opened today. The ses-
sion, which was short, WAS characterized
by long arguments upon objection. The
first witness called was Mrs. McW hirter,
who testified that her husband and
Heath were friendly. She said Heath
called after the murder and asked to act
as pall-bearer at the funeral. She had
heard her husband say Heath was a
good fellow when not in the hands
Of bad companions or in drink; then
he was all wrong. M. M'Parsons tes-
titled that McWhirter was an intimate
friend of Heath. The defense tried to
show by the witness that he had told
Heath and 1. nj. Luttrell the scandalous
story about a young married mans wife
and McWhirter, which Heath after
wards told to newspaper reporters In
San Francisco; but the court ruled out
the evidence. Then followed testimony
in regard to the decoy letter sent to
Policy, which gave rise to long argu-
ments on the part of counsel. After
wards the court adjourned until Monday.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The president,
before leaving Washington yesterday,
signed an order recognizing the mill
tary department Of Arizona under the
name of the department of Colorado,
with headquarters at Denver. The de-
partment of Arizona consisted of the
territories OF New Mexico and Arizona,
and that portion OF California south Of
the 35th parallel. The new order abol-
ishes the department of Arizona, and
places Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and
Colorado in the new department.. CalN
fornia is restored to the department of
California, with headquarters at San
francisco. This change has been urged
by the military authorities for year
past. The headquarters of the depart
ment of Arizona was at Los Angeles,
placing General McCook, commanding
the department, at the extreme western
part of his department. This caused
great delay in communicating with
army headquarters at Washington, as
all matters in his section were sent to
him and by him to Washington. With
headquarters at Denver he will be at the
extreme east of the department and in
closer communication with Washington.
This, it is believed, will effect economy
in time and money and will greatly ia
cilitate the disbursement Of supplies and
ammunition. General McCook will
command the new department.

lowing army officers as Indian agents: !:

have given employment to 1000 men.
1t has been selling good many freight
cars on time, and being unable to realize

When the news reached st. Louis it
created great CONSERVATION among

heavily concerned in number OF big
local enterprises. The Madison Oar
works are controlled by what is known
as the Granite Mountain people, who
are also behind the Merchants bridge.
the Security buildings and number OF
mining enterprises. Six months ago the
company bonded itself for 100000.
This was used to pay off outstanding in
debtsdness and enlarge the plant, and
this is known to have left the company
plenty OF working capital. The works
are running their full working capacity
and turning out between 40 and 80 cars
per day.
Major Rainwater, one OF the leading
members OF the company, says it was
embarrassed by paper they had endorsed
and which was not paid at maturity.
This paper was received by the company
in settlement of accounts, etc. Major
Rainwater had no idea how much Of
this paper was in existence. $50
The works are located at Madison, at
the east end of the Merchants bridge.
The concern is ons of the largest of the
kind in the United States. 1t was the
intention of the capitalists, who operat-

such place as Pullman. and the project
was meeting with much success.
