Leadville. Colo, May Limited States
Senator S. s. Elkins is in the city. In
speaking of the silver question he said:
Eve all know that unless it is settled,
it is doubtful whether the Republican
party will succeed in the next presidential
election. 1 have great confidence that the
Republican party will solve this question
satisfactorily to the majority of the
American people. Colorado has more, to
say in settling this matter than any other
state, and it should exercise the rights
of its prerogative as it is one Of the la r.
most influential of the white metal COM
monwealths. If Colorado viii but point
out the way, / think we can get through
it. / do not pretend to say what the COM
promise should be. but that it would be
much better for the silver men TO, give
something. even if the silver men should
have. control of the convention. Would
it not be a good policy to eoncede some ONE
thing to the gold men and thus hold their
SUPPORT rather than to refuse them any
thing and lose their support!

STRIKE COMPLETE.
In West Virginia Coal Fields Not a
Single Mine is in Operation.


Bluefelds. ". Va. May 1.-The
strike is on in the West Virginia coal
fields along the Norfolk & Western
railroad Not single mine is in oper-
alton. A meeting of $4,000 miners was
held at keystone today to organize
and perfect measures to induce or
force the Pocahontas, W. Va, men to
join the strike. No dissatisfaction ex-
lists among the Virginia miners, as
they have not been cut. In the evenI
of their refusal to Join the strike, force
doubtless will be attempted. The West
Virginia miners are swarning into
Virginia on every train and the situa-
ton is alarming. The cut of 20 per
cent in wages was never contemplated
by the Virginia companies and there
are only a few union men among them.
In the event of trouble at Pocahontas,
the Virginia miners only number 900
against $4,000 West Virginia miners.

Besides these guarantees, any one Of
which is available, and is regarded as
ample Nicaraguan authorities are said to
have actual funds Immediately available
without calling for outside help. Guaran-
tee by the United States is not regarded
as essential under the foregoing clrcum-
stances.
The final proposition as now concluded
between Nicaragua and Great Britain
will therefore be as follows:
Great Britain agrees to Immediately
evacuate Corlnto and withdraw her fleet.
Nicaragua agrees to pay tl5,500 in London
fifteen days from the sailing of the fleet
from Corinto. According to these terms,

ment at II o'clock today. Up to that
time he had not received official confirma
ton of Great Britain's acceptance; al
though the correctness of the unofficial
adviceS was not questioned.
Good Faith of Great Britain.
From the British standpoint. the ac-
ceptance of the compromise and the i'm
mediate evacuation Of Corinto eSta blisheS
the good faith of Great Britain in her
declaration that there was no purpose of
occupying territory. From the first, the
British authorities have assured Ambas
sador Bayard. and the latter has so ad-
vised Secretary Gresham, that there was
no purpose of aggression or of securing
a foothold in Nicaragua. The only pur-
pose. Earl Kimberly has said, was to
collect debt by such force as was nee
essary, and then depart.
Nicaragua, Notwithstanding these aSsur-
ances, has maintained that the collection
of s77,5oo was merely a covert means, of
occupying her territory. This view has
prevailed very widely here, even in some
official quarters, although the policy Of
the government has been to accept the
good faith of Great Britain's representa-
tons.
The withdrawal of troops from Corinto
and the departure of the fleet not only
ends all questions of British territorial
extension in Nicaragua, but also puts at
rest the fears entertained that the con-
troll of the Nicaraguan canal route would
be seriously affected by the proximity of
British forces.
The affair has cost Nicaragua more
than the original ST.. 900. 1t was necessary
to raise 5000 extra troops at a cost of
$1,000 per day. The abandonment of Co
rinrc as customs port. has also resulted
in much loss. The disturbance to bust
ness and commerce is a loss which can
not be measured in dollars.

THE GUARANTEE.
Nicaragua Said to Have Funds
Available,

Washington, May 1.-The guarantee of
payment by Nicaragua of the indemnity
required by Great Britain will be made in
the amplest manner possible SO there
appears to be no further obstacle between
the two countries as TO the final adjust
ment.
Frst-A promise of the Nicaraguan
government, which. inasmuch as the gov
eminent has never defauIted i'll its obliga-
tions, is of itself regarded as guarantee.
Second-The Bank of Nicaragua, ma
tional institution, with recognized stand
ing in London, will. if need be, give a
guarantee.
Third-The Republic of Guatemala. one
of the richest of the Central American
states, stands ready to deposit f15,000 in
the London bank, if Nicaragua desires
the favor.
Fourth-The Nicaragua Canal company.
whose word in London will be acceptable
in the highest financial circles, will give
either guarantee or cash if need be.

TROUBLE IN THE X. OF L.
A Long and Stormy Meeting Of Dis
trict Assembly 40.

trfct Assembly 40.
A special meeting of District Assembly
40, Knights of Labor was held last night
in New York for the purpose of receiving
reports from the delegates who attended
the convention Of the General Assembly
held recently in Washington. The meeting
convened at 7:30 o'clock and did not adjourn
until midnight. The meeting was probably
one of the most stormy in the history of
District 40.
That a disruption had occurred no one
would deny, and ex-General Secretary Will
lam MacNair, when questioned about the
action of large number of the members
who surreptitiously left the hall at 1890,
said it was optional with any one to leave
District Assembly 40 if he felt so disposed.
No one would explain why General Master
Workman Sovereign left the meeting at the
same time. Mr.. Sovereign refused to be
interviewed, and meanwhile pandemonium
reigned in the meeting.
Thomas B. Mcguire and Charles B. French
of the executive committee of D. A. 40 We're
reticent, and would not say that disrup-
ton had actually occurred, and added that
the business of the meeting was simply to
hear the reports of the delegates who at
tended the last general convention.
Great confusion arose as to the nature
of the attacks which the socialists have
made within the last two weeks upon the
general officers of the Knights of Labor
Grave dissensions have of late arisen in
D. A. 40, and number of the leaders are
said to be in favor of keeping out the dis
gruntled element, while the latter threaten
to sever their connection with District 40
Already 800 pants and vest makers in New
York, Brooklyn and Brownsville have with
drawn from d. A. 40 and become affiliated
with the United Garment Workers of Amer
lea.
That the officers of D. A. 40 were threaten
ed with disruption at the meeting last night
no one would deny, but at the same time it
was said that after the present crisis had
passed away d. A. 40 would still live.

Miss Molly Elliot Seawcll Awarded q

The New York Herald announced yester-
day that Miss Molly Elliot Seawell of this
city had been awarded the prize of 5000 for
the best novelette,, entitled 1.-THE Sprightly
Tale Of Marsac," submitted in competition
for the money prizes for stories offered by
that journal. Miss Seawell has large circle
of friends in Washington. who will heartily
congratulate her on her success. In an
nouncing the award, the Herald says:
THE winner in the novelette, competition,
Miss Molly Elliot Seawell, is another young
woman who is not unknown to fame, and
who has fulfilled the promise of her earlier
works In the matured performance of The
Sprightly Tale of Marsac.' 1t is well named.

have been chosen to characterize 1t. 1t is

students jim Paris, and details the extraor-
binary manner in which they lifted them

Miss Seawell began to write almost from
the nursery. ard was a contributor to
periodicals in her teens Her first signed
story was Maid Marian which was subse-
quently dramatized by her for Rosina Vokes
and played with great success by that ac-
tress until her untimely DEATH She followed
this up with other sketches and stories and
with the novels of 'Thrcckmorton' QS9O) and
Children of Destiny 1888. 1t is a note
worthy fact that the winning of prizes is no
novelty with Miss Seawell. Her first story
