CANDID STATEMENT OF FOREIGN OFFICE

 How Far Uncle Sam May Go.

Managua, Nicaragua, April 24.'-The British admiral notified President Sezlya that three days will be given to Nicara- qua in which to comply with the terms of Great Britain's ultimatum. This pe- riod will expire tomorrow. Failure to pay the indemnity will be followed by tho seizure of the custom house at Corinto and the collection of the duties by Brit ish subjects, presumably officers of the fleet detailed for that purpose. The note of the British admiral contains decla- ration that force will be used to collect the money if opposition is made. Great excitement exists. The government, it is reported, will refuse to pay the indem- nifty and will abandon Corinto as q port of entry. The belief is general here that if Great Britain obtains possession of Corinto she will continue to occupy it as she has occupied territory in Egypt and other countries where she has obtalned a foothold.

An Ex-Confederate Minister Asked to Preach
 Decoration Day Sermon
FOR THE CHATTANOOGA 6. A R. POST.
A Handful of Malcontents, However, Pro- test and the Divine Is Requested to Withdraw, Which He Does in a
 Digniied and Suave Way

Chattanooga. April 24.-(Special)- Rev William Pettis, rector of St. PauPs Episcopal church of this city. was re- quested not long since by the memorial committee of the Grand Army of the Republic organization here to preach the Decoration Day sermon on May 50. A number of ladies were appointed to wait on the doctor and get his assent It was entirely unexpected and Dr. Pet tis was much surprised.
 Why" said he, pleasantly, you know I am an old rebel soldier"
 The good ladies declared that it made no difference, and after further insist ence pr. Pettis accepted the honor.
 It was satisfactory to the committee and all went well for a while. It seems, though, that several members of the To- cal Grand Army posts thought it more appropriate that a minister other than one who had fought for the confederacy should deliver the sermon, and they kicked. The matter was brought up officially, and 1t was decided that the best thing to do was to ask Dr. Pettis to withdraw. So a committee of one was sent to the reverend gentleman. The matter was explained, and Dr. Pet tis said he would retire in favor of some one; that he didn't care to preach for those who didn't want to hear him. That was all right.
 But for the fact that it was the chronic kickers, probably camp follow CTS largely who protested, there would have been a genuine love-feast on Dec. oration Day between the old "rebs' ana the Grand Army. As 1t is they proba- bly will keep to themselves.

KENTUCKY sENATORSHlP FIGHT
Will Be on the Silver Line Representative
 McCreary Declares Himself.

Louisville, April 24.-Representative McCreary in an interview today said he was unalterably opposed to the free coinage of silver. His declaration was evoked by the free silver stand taken by Senator Blackburn. The representative says in the course of long prepared statement of his position and vote and congress:
 q favor an international agreement not inconsistent with, sound business methods, but to throw open the hints of this country to the world is simply pre- posterous."
 The senatorial contest is given a new interest by the aspirants for and against silver. The fight will be made on those
Birmingham age-herald., 1895-04-25

resolutions to postpone and adjourn were made and defeated, and President Mcconnell was frequently compelled to beg members to preserve order. The sound money men won the day, but at the expense of the democratic platforms which their opponents forced them to either swallow or cast into the gutter. They chose the latter alternative, and the meeting broke up in a state border ing on tumult This is the original reso- lution, which was adopted after three hours of hot discussion by a vote of AS yeas to P nays:
 Resolved by the members of the Iro- quois club, That it is inexpedient and unwise to open the hints of the United States to the free coinage of silver; that it would be most unfortunate at this time, when signs of returning confidence and renewed prosperity are multiplying, if such an unwise and disastrous step should be taken; the necessary effect would be to aggravate those industrial, commercial and financial ills from which we have but lately suffered and to post pone indefinitely the advent of normal and prosperous conditions"
 The foregoing resolution was intro duced in the beginning of the meeting by s. s. Gregory.
 The silver faction was led by Joseph B. Mann, Charles Shackelford Ex-May- or Hopkins, c. s. Darrow, Louis Horn stein, F. B. Talmar, Lawrence P. Boyle and others, who soon made 1t apparent that at least one-third of the seventy five members present were opposed to the gold standard.
 MT. Shackelford began the fight by of fering as a substitute the silver plank in the democratic platform of 1892. The sound money men voted it down. Then Joseph B. Mann submitted in irony a gold monopolist substitute. This was defeated. Ex-Mayor Hopkins offered as a substitute the free silver plank in the Illinois platform of 1894. This suffered the fate of it's predecessors. Other sub stitute motions and points of order fol- lowed fast and furious, and it was not until nearly midnight that the session adjourned in disorder.

A Special Cabinet Meeting.

Washington, April 24-Secretary Gresham had a long interview with Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British ambassa- dor. this morning, and also saw Minister Guzman of Nicaragua, who communi- cated to him the intelligence he had from his government. Very shortly after wards members of the oabinet,so by one. drove out to Woodley, the presi- dents country home, where special cabinet meeting was held. The outcome of the.smeeting is understood to be that the administration is disposed to use it's good offices between Nicaragua and Great Britain so far as it can consist ently do so. President Cleveland feels that as matters now stand the United States can do nothing except to request Lord Kimberly not to force a settlement of the indemnity within the next twen- ty-four hours, but to permit a sufficient time to elapse so that Nicaragua may not be put in the position of being com pelled to pay the smart money" at the cannon's mouth.
 If the British foreign office shall agree to this, the incident will probably be closed within the next fortnight by with Great Britain's terms. Those who understand the sentiment of the Nicara- guan people respecting this matter pre- dict that Nicaragua will not pay the indemnity until Great Britain pursues more conciliatory course. The disposi- ton of President Sezlya and his advisers is strongly against paying the money under compulsion To do so will it is said, result in the overthrow of the pres ent administration by the Nicaraguan people, who would even prefer that Co., rinto should be occupied rather than that they should be compelled to make humiliating surrender.

SAND IN HIS CRAW.
But He Was Slow on the Draw-A Brother-in-
 Law of Ben Timan Shot Down.

Charleston, s. C., April 24.-A special to the News and Courier from Edgeield, s. C., says: e
 This morning at o'clock in the store of Hammond & Co. at this place F. l.. Jones shot and killed John C. Swfarin- gen. About three months ago Jones in dicted Swearingen for obstructing public road that led through the for mers place and Swearingen was arrested and convicted at the late term of court for the offense. It seems that soon after the obstruction of the road the rails used in forming the obstruction were burned, and Swearingen claimed that Jones' son did the burning, while Jones alleged that Swearingen was the guilty party. This morning other causes brought on bad blood between the parties
 A few days ago Swearingen caused the arrest of negro and lodged him in jail, claiming that he could substantiate the charge against young Jones by the fe- groS testimony. Jones bailed the negro out This morning Swearingen came to town to see about the matter, and. as the testimony of the coroner's investiga- ton discloses, on entering the store was asked by young Jones if he (Swearingen) had said he burned the rails, and if he did it was a falsehood. Other words passed between young Jones and the de- ceased, during which time B. L. Jones came in and told Swearingen if he de- sired to talk to any one to talk to him.
 Swearingen then threw his hands on his hip pockets, at which both parties drew and commenced firing. The wit nesses could not say who shot first. Irl- mediately after the firing Swearingen fell to the floor and died in twenty min utes. The ball that killed MT. Swearin- gen entered the upper margin of the right D9natratinR .f the brain. Jones was not hit
 The verdict of the jury was in accord- ance with the above facts
 MT. Jones surrendered and is now in jail.
 The parties were brothers-in-law, Jones having married Swearingen's sister Swearingen was a brother-in-Iaw of Fx- Congressman Tillman and Senator Till man. He had attained his 5Oth year and leaves a family.
