NICARAGUA WANTS TROUBLE
Citizens of the United States
Ready to Resist.
STATUS OF THE MOSQUITO ROW.
There Would Seem to Be a Growing
Need for the Appearance of
White Cruiser.

NEW ORLEANS, April 16-The steamer
George Seeley arrived to-day from Blue
fields, Nicaragua, bringing news to April
u The Picayune's correspondent writes: ::
son the evening of the 9th inst. small
schooner arrived from Greylown, bringing
mail advices and several \ caraguan
officials. Among these. to the surprise oil
even Lacayo, was the Wilson murderer,
Arguello.
LAS soon as it became known that his
man was in town the citizens began to con-
gregate In groups, where one could, with
the click OF pistol, hear, Yes, the muir
derer is here
LAS the Nlcarsgpaus suspected that the
peculiar movements of the Americans
meant something the assassin, Arguello,
was quickly placed under arrest and has
since been confined in the Provisional
t0mbs.
1T would seem that Arguello escaped
from Rama to the interior, where he was
safe beyond a doubt. His advent here in
connection with other matters transpiring
Is a part Of a play being made by Lacayo,
aud therefore his life is perfectly safe so
long as he is in the hands OF the local au-
thorlties, unless the commander Of the
United States ship San Francisco-shoud
he ever get here-makes demand Tor the
execution of the assassin"
In the mail brought by the same
schooner came a telegram from Uniled
States Minister Baker. dated the 1st. to
United States Consul Braid, informing
him that The Government of Nicaragua
had revoked his exequatur and .his Official
ha in
juoilant over this additional insult to The
flag of the United 5 .ateS and openly
boasted that Lacayo had downed Braid
and that the Americans must submit TO
the laws Of Nicaragua. and that Charles
a. Lacayo will never permit Robert Henry
Clarence. chief of the Mosquitoes. to re-
sumo control of the municipal and ma
tionsl affairs of Blnefelds and the Mosquito
reservation.
1t is TumOred that the exequatur of
United States Consul Bingham has also
been revoked, owing to the Consul's action
here. 1t is not believed that the Mica
raguan officials would ever object to Mr.
Bingham. and up to this moment the
rumor lacks confirmation.
Il. Nj. 5. Magicienne is still here, having
relieved II. NJ. 5. Canadie on the 81 inst.
Captain A. G. Clark, her commander. came
ashore this morning, and among other
things, while speaking of the actions of
the Nicsraguan officials, said:
Gentlemen, if you could wish to know
what Lacayo and his hencnmen are likely
to do Tomorrow you just think of the
most idiotic oficialisms possible, and that
would be about what they will perform"
Therefore, while the town is quiet this
evening nobody knows what the morrow
may produce, and necessarily all here are
constantly under arms. ready to prove
that they are Americans.

GATHERING FROM EVERYWHERE
A Prophet From the High Mountains
of Connecticut.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, April 16-Twenty
wears ago Hillman StiIlings got an idea
into his head that Christ was TO visit the
earth again. and when he came he (Still-
ings) was to ba right-hand man. At that
time he left his friends, climbed to the top
of Mount Archer, one OF the tallest peaks
in the State, and took up his abode in rude
cabin. Ever since he has lived there the
life of a recluse. In all that time neither his
hair nor beard has been cut. and now he is
one of the queerest looking personages one
can imagine.
Last week he announced that Christ had
visited the earth and commanded him to
lead host to Washington and join the
Army OF the Common veal. He has gained

his following is is not known.

JUST ONE PENNY.
1t Is Proposed to Increase the
English Income Tax.

LONDON. April 16-The budget pro-
vides for the increase of ! penny on the
pound in the income tax as prese nted in
the House of Commons by Sir William
Harcourt to-day. Sir William estimated
the total expenditures al SOS. .45I. 600
and the revenue at 900, 456. .000 He said
the deficit of about "a, 100000 would not be
met by borrowing nor by abandoning the
fixed reductions of the national debt. The
extra l penny on he pound on the income
tax would yield about 60. 1S0 900. He.
however, intended to raise the limit of
exemption from ei2O to EGO and also to
relieve incomes between e400 and $500 by
an abatement of al00. These abatsments
would mean a yearly loss of e, ,450 600.
reducing the net gain on the extra penny
to 9439. 900. In order TO meet the remain
ing el,000.0O0 deficit be proposed to add
l penny per gallon to the duty on spirits
and pence per barrel for beer.
The lobby reporter of the Times says 1t
was the general impression that the bud
get will lead to prolonged discussion of
the details rather than to the defeat of the
movement. The spirit tax is regarded as
the crux of the situation.
The Parnellites will resist this tax
especially, as they consider that Ireland is
already overtaxed in comparison with
England. The Scotch members of the
House do not radically oppose the spirit
tax. The Radicals admit that the budget
is a clever one for electioneering purposes
The Times, commenting editorially on
the budget, says: 1t is only fair to say
that allowing for the difficulties and pres
sure the Chancellor of the Excheouer had
TO contend with the budget is much less
Objectionable than the public had reason
to infer 1t would be from the predictions
of the Gladstonians.
Inc Radicals receive a rebuff by Sir
William Vernon Harcourt's recognition of
the TACT that when a national emergency
demands sudden increase IN the revenue
the working classes are bound 10 con-
tribute their portion In the form of ind tract
taxation.
The Standard SAYS the budget pronosaIs
seem to have been framed in sincere
spirit.
The Daily News SAYS Sir William Yer
non Harcourt showed himself TO be of the
highest rank among the fnanciers of the
country.
There is not man living except Mr..
Gladstone who could have framed this
budget or delivered such a speech as that
delivered by the Chancellor of the Ex-
cheQuer in presenting it to the House of
Commons.
The Chronicle calls it notable budget.
