OMNIBUS OF TROUBLE

The situation a. Corinto is now re-
garded as ominous Of serious trouble,
forthe dispatches indicate that tho Mic.
araguans are disposed TO resist any fur
Their advance by the British. Tho in

araguans may further isolate tho Brit

across tho lagoon separating the town
from the mainland. The British posi-.
ton is said to be very bad from a STRAIT.
egic standpoint. Tho town is prac.ic.
ally on an island, being separated from
the mainland by a stretch OF marshy
ground. This ia traversed by bridges.
and without them Corinto Is cut off
from the shore. The Nicaraguans have
retired to tho shore end OF the bridges,
and those well informed on the situa-
tion believe that il the British make
any move 10 cross tho lagoon tho
bridges will bc burned. and the little
band Of Nicaraguan troop, will make a
stand against further entertainments.

sive OF trouble on this score, as is indi-
