Ehe custom houses, Although Nicaragua
Has Not Yielded without Protest.
WASHINGTON, Ar~il 27.-Up to late
hour Dr. Guzman, the Nicaraguan minis.
Ger, has not received any dispatches from
his government indicating what, If any
thing, has transpired in connection with
che British ultimatum.
A difference of opinion exists in diplo-
matio circles as TO the precise time at
which the ultimatum expires, some per-
sons holding to the belief that it expired
Thursday midnight, while Others contend
chat Friday midnight marks the limit.
From the cables heretofore received by
DIR. Guzman he is of the opinion that the
limit of time was up at midnight on
Thursday, but in the absence of any later
news he thinks that some additional time
probably twenty-four hours-has been
granted TO Nicaragua within which to
make answer He is, however, in the dark
as to what really has occurred.
The minister seems to believe the mat
ter will be settled, but in what manner
and i'm what terms he does not advance an
opinion.
LONDON, April 27-In well informed
English quarters here it is declared that
bhe British ultimatum to Nicaragua has
not been modified, that Admiral Stephen
son has not been cabled to extend the time
granted Nicaragua within which to pay
che indemnity of S75, 900 demanded by
Great Britain, and in the absence of defn-
ate news it is believed that the admiral has
already occupied Corinto. The belief is
5lso expressed here that the Nicaraguan
government will not yield to the demands
of Great Britain until compelled to do so,
in order to avoid being forced to resign
