RESERVATION INCORPORATED


Washington, May S-The Nicaraguan
government has recently done away
with the Mosquito reservation, which
has been the cause Of trouble and
has incorporated 1t as state of Nj
caragua with the name of the depart
ment of Zelaya, after the president of
the republic.
The significance of the movement has
attracted little public attention, but
1t is stated by the officials that 1t In,
wolves greater considerations than the
armed occupation of Corinto. Now
that the latter crisis has passed, ofI1>
cials are turning their attention to
what Great Britain win do towards
Nicaragua's course In creating the
new state, and thus indirectly termi-
mating all British authority or influ-
ence in the old Mosquito country.
Earl Kimberly has given notice to
Nicaragua that this new question will
receive tho "kindly consideration" Of
her majesty's government after the
demands Of the ultimatum are settled.
Tho agreement Of yesterday practical
ly settles these demands. only one OF
them, the arbitration of damages IA
the property Of British subjects, re-
naming to be executed. After that will
come the promise Of kindly considera-
tion" of Nlcaragua's creation OF the
state OF zelaya out of what has long
been a port Of British dependency.

swer within seven days to 1taly's de-
mands for losses Sustained by italian
subjects during THE revolution. He
is In fact at present in ignorance OF
the mature of Italy's claims. Upon
the suggestion that 1taly's demands

rather peremptory, the. Brazilian min

Brazil, of course, will settle any
just claims against her, but Brazil is
no more in position Ito be urged by
peremptory demands than the United
States. Personally" he added, Il do
not believe In the collection of debts
by ultimatums."
