Apparently Mr.. Bayard attached no signif-

did not seek 10 learn how far England proposed
going or make any particular comment upon the
remarks of Lord Kimberley in his dispatches 10
the State Department. He was blind and deaf
to all else but the one fact that Great Britain
would not attempt to restore Clarence To au-

great credit FOR the "vCt0ry' In the EhIeheIds

to buster over the results. England had been

4 FACT NOT TO BE LOST SIGHT OF.
What are England's present intentions with
respect to Nicaragua? This is the question
which IS receiving serious consideration by
number OF prominent Senator'S who are SUI IN
| Washington. while Secretary Gresham Is looking
~ the situation so calmly dreaming Of his one
victory" or lamenting his many defeats. II Is
taken for granted In the first place that Great
! Nicaragua to pay an indemnity to her subjects

! her reol motive and how far will she 60 In at

at a satisfactory conclusion. Senator'S say that
the fact must never be lost sight Of that English
hopes constantly look to the acquisition Il poti-
/ cal and commercial advantages In the Western
! Hemisphere and more especially in the direction
! Of the Nicaragua Canal. Great Britain's policy
! IN this respect IS said 20 be well CONSIDERED ana
determined She IS fully aware OF the fact that
! Nicaragua is not at this time in a position 10 pay
an indemnity Of $4,000 and such other amounts
as the proposed commission may award as dam
ages. 1t is impossible of course, 10 say what the
commission would decide upon as suitable reiin-
bursement for losses sustained by other Brltsh
/ subjects who were eXiled from Nicaragua ABOUT
the time that Chief Clarence found Il 10 ms best

| would undoubtedly be large. In England uu-
| natum 10 General Barrips. Lord Kimberley men
tons the names Of fifteen subjects OF Great
