PEACE AT BLUEFIELDS.
Indications of an Early Settlement Of the
Difficulties that Will Satisfy
EyarvhOdv Concerned

Difficulties that Will Satisfy
Everybody Concerned
Adyices received here from Bluefields are
indicative OF an early and peaceful settle
ment Of the difficulties that have made the
Mosquito reservation an object of interna-
tional importance for several months.
1t is probable that the outcome will be an
arrangement satisfactory 10 nearly everybody
concerned. The sovereignty OF Nicaragua
over the entire reservation will be firmly es-
tablished and the national government will
collect imposts. defend the country, and other
wise assert its supremacy.
The people of the reservation will be per-
mitted to run their own local government, lay
their own internal taxes and generally main
tain an autonomous government, bearing
about the same relation to the Nicaraguan
government as that of one OF our states does
to the national government
With this measure OF local self-government
it is believed that the British government will
regard the treaty stipuiations as satisfied. and
the United States will be content to have
the old and anomalous system Of dual and
conflicting governments which impeded ne
gotiations and trade arrangements broken up
for all time.
The only feature in the negotiations up to
this point that has given rise to any friction
was the killing of the American. Wilson. by
the Nicaraguan functionary, Arguello, who
subsequently, escaped. But this promises to
yield TO easy adjustment, as the Niearaguan
government has earnestly dIsclaimed respon-
sibility for the murder, which it asserted was
the result OF private quarrel. and has en-
deavored to punish the guilty man according
to the laws of the country.
Thanks to the earnest efforts Of DIR. GuZ-
man, the Ni:araguan minister at Washington.
the relations between the United States and
Nicaragua are Low of the most friendly ma
ture. and the two governments are working in
perfect harmony.
An arrangement has been made between the
representative of the Nicaraguan Canal Com
pany and the Niearaguan government. by
which the great project is free from all OBJ
struction. and as an earnest of his good feel
ing towards and admiration for the United
States President Zelaya and the Minister OF
the Interior of Nicaragua have sent their
sons to Washington, where their education
will be completed under the eye OF Minister
GuZman.
