NICARAGUA AND THE CANAL.
No Desire That the Present Company
should surrender Its Concession.

Washington city. April 1s.-Dr. Guz-
man, the Nicaraguan minister was asked
today concerning a report that Nicaragua
desired that the present Nicaraguan Ca
nal Company should surrender the con-
eession under which work has been done
thus far, and that the United States and
Nicaragua should jointly undertake the
future work as a governmental enter
prise. The minister explained that the
report was due TO a misrepresentation
The Nicaraguan government had no wish.
he said, that the company should surren-
der its concession. IL had every conf
dence that the company would push the
enterprise with all possible speed. TN
der these circumstances, Or. GuZman
sod. the joint governmental action was
not live one. and II was needless to
speculate on a contingency which Mica
ragua did not regard as a remote possi-
bility. The government wanted - give
every facility and announcement tc the
company. and did not want the imprez-
sion 10 get abroad that IT considered q
forfeiture likely. or even possible
DR. Guzman says the Misrepresentation
arose through crediting 70 him a state
msnt which he had communicated To the
state department. as an enclosure. Tho
statement had been made during an In
terview between the United States min
lister al Nicaragua and the government
authorities IL was forwarded To Guz-
man and by him sent to the state depart
mens without any intention OF indorslng
the views. II has since been found that
the report OF the interview AZ MaHagua
was very defective, Minister Baker was
talking In English. and understood no
Spanish The Nicaraguan minister was
talking in Spanish, and understood no
English. There was naturally some mis-.
understanding. from which the recent re-
ports have arisen.

ant or neutral schools by Catholics in
Manitoba.
Winnipeg. April lS.-Archhishop Lam
gevin. OF ST. Bonifaee. was interviewed
this afternoon regarding the cablegram
from Rome announcing that the pope had
addressed letter TO the Canadian
bishops condemning the freqnenting OF
Protestant schools by the Catholics OF
Manitoba His grace said no such COM
munIcation had been received by him. and
that the only letter on the subject Of
schools which he had received had come
from the cardinal Vicar Ledochowsli. at
Rome, a summary of which he had al
ready given to the press. His grace trans
lated the passage in that letter which re-
fcrred TO the goddess schools. and
which reads as follows: Some have err
roneously thought there Is no danger in
those schools which are called neutral.
and that Catholic children can be indis-
erlminately sent 10 those schools. hat tho
very fact of such institutions excluding
the true and all other religions from their
teachings tnfiicts great wrong upon re-
Hgion itself. and dispaces IL from tho
high position 1t occupies In every human
life. and particularly In the education of
the young. IL is not right to say that
parents can supply privately the religion
which should be part OF the school
routine"

Washington City. April 1s.-Ts1e impress
sion Is growing here that President De-
iaEas OF Nicaragua. has taken too opti-
mssfic q View OF the state OF the rela-
tons between Great Britain and his own
country In assuming that the former has
decided 20 desls; from carrying out her
ultimatum TO Nicaragua, and that she
viii agree 10 allow the claim for indeSn-
nifty TO 90 10 arbitration.
IL Is regarded as a significant fact here
that the Earl OF Kimberly the British
foreign minister. has just rertEned sud
denly TO London, and II Is believed the
true explanation of the delay in action Is
10 be found in the fact that none OF the
sssboriinates In the British foreign Of
fee felt like assuming the responsibility
for action In the absence OF the earl.
DR.. Guzman. the Nicaraguan minister
here, has not heard from his government
as 10. Great Britain's purpose, bat he is
hourly expecting an answer TO his cabIed
inquiry. From the delay in answering
he believes the Nicaraguan government
IS as yet uniformed as 10 the latest
phases OF the situation, and 1t probably
is in communication with its representa-
tive of London. Sir Julian PaHncefote.
the British ambassador. received no aa-
vices on the subject today.
While there is an absence OF official In
formation. the diplomatic officials regard
il as settled that Great Britain Will pro-
ceed TO enforce her claim against Near
aqua by moderate but firm means. The
impression also prevails that, with parlia-
ment in session. the government would
not risk an appeal 10 that body by med
Grating or yielding 10 the proposals of a
minor power.
New York, April lS.-The World has re-
ceiyed a private cable dispatch from Lon

The note which the Earl of Kimberly.
