Honduras into the circumstances surround
ing the killing of the American, Renton, at
Brewers Lagoon. is being carefully sifted
by the officials. Capt. Davis made IA most
careful inquiry into all of the facts. and
examined all of the witnesses who could
be reached. The conclusion is that the
Honduran government is properly charge
able with responsibility for the affair, and
has been derelict in failing to take any
steps whatever to ascertain and punish
the perpetrators of the crime. Capt. Da-
Wis visit awakened the Honduran officials
and there is now a fair prospect that tardy
justice will be secured at last. Capt. Da-
Wis found that the injury sustained by
the Renton estate amounts to about S3S.O1O
and the Hcnduran government will be re-
quested to reimburse the widow of Renton
in this amount. 1t has already signified a
disposition to do what is right in this mat
