 San Francisco, Sept. 14.-An evening paper says Gen. Antonio Ezeta. late of San Salvador, has engaged berth on the steamer City of sydney, which sails hence for Panama next Wednesday, and that he will probably land at Acapulco, Mexico, the. point from which he con templates a descent upon the republic of San Salvador and the wrestling of the country from the president, Guitterez. General EZelta will remain at one of Mex ieo's ports for some days and proceed di- rectly to Libertad, where he hopes to be joined by trusted band of soldiers. The soldiery will desert the standard of Gutierrez and the fierce tribes of half breeds and Indians under General Rivas are expected to flock to Ezetas stand ard. General EZeta has for weeks been preparing for his campaign.
 The generals plan of action is to await endorsements in Mexico. and then 50 directly to La Libertad. He feels certain that the soldiers brought to the front to meet him will extend to him a vel come hand instead of opposing him with shot and bayonet
 Should EZeta get control of San Sal vador he will ardcntly advocate the pro- posed Central American union, embrac- ing Nicaragua, Guatemala, San Saliva dor and Honduras.

 New York, Sept. H-As the dlsman- ting of the Valkyrie goes on the posslpli- ities of another Defender-Valkyrie race grows less. There is no hope that there will be one really entertained any where. Chester Griswold of the regatta committee said today that MT. lsehn had tried hard to arrange special race and the matter was talked over at great length by the members of the re- gatta committee and the cup committee at the meeting Friday night, but all CT forts were fruitless and nobody connected with the club now has the slightest hope in that direction.

DISASTROUS FOREST FIRE Is Raging in Southern New Jersey-A Night
 of Terror

Pleasantville, N. J., Sept 14.-one of the most disastrous forest fires that ever swept through southern New Jersey is now raging nine miles from this place. At Risleytown, directly back of this place, the fire Is raging most furiously.
 The West Jersey Railroad company sent an extra train from Millville last night and brought along all the section men they could get along the line and fought the fires at Mckee City until 3 o'clock this morning. People at Risley- town are doing all in their power to change the course of the fire to save their homes. Everything is as dry as powder and sparks are carried 300 and 400 yards, thus making back firing useless. This will be a night of terror for those who are in the line of the fire, which is about two miles wide. It is estimated that the loss already will reach s75,OO0, and unless there should come a rain tonight it will reach $100. GOO.

THIRD l EDITION.
TRIAL OF PASTOR HlNSHAW.
Accused Had Told Witness That He Could
 Arrange Matters With the Coroner.


 Danvllle, Ind, Sept. 14.-The trial of the Rev. William B. Hinshaw is pro- gressing slowly and the indications are hhat it will last at least six weeks longer. The defendant is looking better and seems greatly encouraged by the points brought out by his counsel Sarah Oyler. his mother-in-law, who sat by him dur. ing the first days of the trial has gone home, and it Is rumored that she has undergone a change of opinion and ex- pressed the belief that Hinshaw mur- dered her daughter. This cannot be au- thenticated. as Mrs oyler lives in the northern part of the state.
 Joseph Alexander helped to look Tor tracks, but saw only those made by the searching party. It showed little, but no one could see them the next morning. Hinshaw told him he had murder Tn ms heart when he was fighting with the rob bers that he saw one that aimed al his wife and was certain she was killed. William Cope stayed with the accused the day the remains of the murdered woman were taken to Winchester for burial
 MT. Hinshaw appeared happy and jovial. He asked witness what the feei- ing of the public was in relation to the killing, and whether 1t would be prudent for him to remain in Bellevflle He to1o Cope he expected they would find his re- volver, and asked him to look alter Il for him. Witness. and William East found the revolver and gave it to the coroner. It was rusty, but Attorney Parker cleaned it and asked him II ne could identify it. He had put private mark on it and identified it. The witness said he had frequently talked with De tective Byrne, but had been promised no part of the reward. He said HlnSnaW came to him during the coroners inquest and wanted him to testify to only few facts Hnshaw said he could fix It with the coroner so only certain questions would be asked of him. This was done.
 Stephen Ways was present when Mrs. Hinshaw was found. There was snow In her hair He saw a fresh track at the gate Ben Anderson, foreman Of Fhe grand jury, said that the defendant de- manded the pistol introduced. and said that it was his and that he was going to ask permission to carry it. County Clerk David Hadley was also accoSted by the preacher who said he was going to have it.
 William Mccormack had conversa- tion with the defendant. and was told that when the robber was cutting at hlm the razor slipped over the silk cord on his undershirt. The state then exhibited the bed in which the defendant claims his wife was when shot, and the state explained how impossible it would have been for the deceased to receive the wound in the head while lying in the po- sitiou described by MT. HinshaW.

There Will Be Another Bond Issue, WHICH

 LacIede. Mo, Sept. 14.-Hon. R. P. Bland addressed 1500 people here at the opening of the fair and to reporter said: The present indications are that there will be another bond issue and possibly the exports of our cotton and wheat may lesson the demand for gold abroad As soon as that is over the gold will doubtless continue to go abroad again, and another bond issue will take place. The finances of the country under the gold standard are in deplorabe condi- ton.
 ..The talk that gold will go to pre- mi,Im under the free coinage of silver is no argument against silver. for every bond sale means a premium on gold. Gold is al a premium here. The premium IS levied on the masses here by the issue"

Nicaragua Officially Accepts the Ultima
tum of Great Britain.
MANAGUA, May g. 6.-Nicaragua has
authorized Senor Cristano Medina, SAL
vadorian minister to London and Paris,
acting Nicaraguan minister to London,
to accept the modified ultimatum of
Great Britain. This modified ultima
tum, it is understood here, was secured
by the influence and through the inter-
cession of the United States. Senor
Medina is also authorized by the Mic
araguan government to pay the e15,00o
sterling in London, under protest,
within five days after the departure Of
the British squadron from Corinto. Or
ders for the evacuation of the port of
Corinto by the British are to be cabled
to Admiral Stephenson, and it is
thought probable that he is already in
possession of instructions to that effect
from Earl Spencer, first lord Of the ad-
miralty. It is understood here that the
other items in the original ultimatum
of Great Britain will all be settled by
arbitration.

cabinet and is considering them. Those
interested say the disagreement con-

party say that confederation is dead

to accept the position Of a
crown colony. The ministry
held two conferences with Governor
O'Brien, it is supposed on the French

upon the holding Of a general election
before the question of confederation is

WARSH|PS LEAVE,
The British Nicaraguan Affair
Ends by the Evacuation
of CorintO.
REVISED ULTIMATUM GOES.
Central American States Com
bining Against English
! Products,

MANAGUA, May 6.-The Nicaraguan
government, having through the Sal
vadorian minister at London, accepted
the modified ultimatum of the British
government, the dispute between the
two countries is practically at an end.
Orders were cabled from London to
Rear Admiral Stephenson, command
ing the British squadron at Corinto,
directing him to evacuate the port Sun
day, and shortly after the flag denoting
that religious services were in progress
Oh board the warships was hauled
down, the marines, who had been
drawn up in front of the customhouse,
were ordered to return to their ships. A
few minutes later
The British Flag Was Hauled Down
from the government building, and
soon the soil of Nicaragua was rid of
the British invaders, and the long
strokes Of the sailors were sweeping
the heavy boats to the warships lying
In the harbor. Hundreds of persons as
sembled along the shore to see the en-
barkation OF the marines, and a cheer
went up as the noses Of the boats
headed harborward.
The warships were soon riding at
short cables, but their departure was
delayed by the tide until afternoon. 1t
was expected that the flagship would
depart with the other two vessels of
the fleet, but when the water was
high enough on the bar to permit the
passage of the vessels, only the Wild
Swan and the Satellite got under way.
The flagship, the Royal Arthur, paid
out her cable again, and this fact was
believed to confirm a report that she
would salute the NlcaraEuan flag when
the government reIossessed itself OF
the port.
Combining Against Great Britain.
Great Br: tain has successfully played
the role OF Il hawk and the furry
caused by her actions shows no sign Of
subsistence. The governments Of all
the Central American states and those
of several OF the III South American
countries have telegraphed to President
Zelaya suggesting the formation of a
commercial union against the produc-
tons of Great Britain, and also against
the transportation of Central and South
American products in British bottoms.
If such union could be definitely ar
ranged and the terms be put into force
quite severe blow would be dealt to
British trade, and eventually the Brit
ish government would find that its
treatment of Nicaragua had cost it a
sum of money far in excess of the
smart money that she demanded from
Nicaragua.
