Advlces receive re today say that
Vice-Admiral Ste % son. in com
mand of the Britis. . get at Corlnto,
has given Nicaragua detailed informa-
ton as to the time and circumstances
OF the proposed landing of British
troops. The admiral will consider the
time of grace to run until u midnight
tonight. He will not begin a landing
of troops during the night. He fixes
G o'clock tomorrow morning as the
precise time when the British forces
will move. The exact course Is in the
line of the British before the bomnrd
ment of Alexandria. II is known that
Nicaragua is in the great state Of ex-
citcment. The government authorities
are understood to be in consultation
and the fact that no communication has
been sent to Washington Is taken TO
indicate that the final decision is not
yet reached. 1t is the very strong con-
viction OF officials, however, that
Nicaragua will not yield. AT the state
department great reticence prevails,
but there Is reason TO believe that
Secretary Gresham has cabled to
ADMINISTRATOR ladS dlu Suggesting u VI 'A
respite as a means toward adjustment
but not proposing Intervention. The
statement concerning the cable is credi-
ted by those in a position to know the
circumstances but cannot be officially
confirmed.
1t is regarded as settled, however,
that the United States will not inter-
Yene.

afternoon but was unable to see Sec
retaly Gresham. The minister was very
much perturbed, for while he had
no advices directly from his govern
ment relative TO the projected landing
at Corinto later than those Of yester-
day, he is evidently In great doubt OF
the favorable disposition of the admin
istration. 1t is intimated by some
officials in explanation Of the harmony
of view between the United States and
Great Britain in the matter OF enforce
ing the British ultimatum reported
from London that the United States
has itself an interest In the British al
tempt to collect the indemnity, being
about TO make a demand ON Honduras
for the American Benton and the des-
truotion of his estate there last spring,
and also to move ON Guatemala for
reparatlon for the ill-treatmeut of n
number Of Americans by government
officials.
1t can be stated on authority that
Sir Julian pauncefote, the British
Ambassador, has not communicated in
any way with Secretary Gresham on
the Nicaraguan question and that he
has received no advlces from his home
government on the subject. All eN-
changes of communication between
Great Britain and the United States
n bout Nicaragua have been conduct ed
through the British office and Ambasa-
dor Bayard, while on all points In which
Great Britain alone is concerned the
exchanges have been between British
Minister Goslin and his home govern
ment.

NO HOPE FROM US.
Poor Little Nicaragua at the Mercy
of the British.


Washington, April 25.-Nicaragua's
last hope OF assistance from the United
States In her controversy with Great
Britain to prevent the seizure of CO.
rinto vanished this afternoon.
Dr. Guzman, the Nlcaraguan minis
ter, who had been waiting with intense
anxiety to see Secretary Gresham, was
finally successful. about o'clock,
when the secretary came into the de-
partment from the white house, where
he had been in consultation with Pres
ident Cleveland, presumably on the
same subject.
The interview was very short, In
five minutes the minister emerged
from the secretary's office, looking very
depressed. He refused to discuss what
had taken place, but 1t can be sup
posed that the secretary gave him to
understand very clearly that tho
United States would not interfere IN
the case as II stands now. So there
are three courses open to Nicaragua.
namely: To pay the indemnity, to
permit the occupation of Corinto or To
fight, and the next twelve hours must
find the choice, for the British troops
are to land at day break tomorrow at
Corlnto
AS already stated in the Associated
Press dispatches, the position taken
by the president in this matter is
that the dispute Is one entirely be-
tween Great Britain and Nicaragua, In
which the United States has no right
10 interfere, unless there should he
committed acts Injurious TO American
interests in Nicaragua or there should
be shown disposition by Great Bril-
tain TO acquire Nicaraguan territory.
on each these points favorable as
siirance has been had from Great Bril-
tain, and II is said that all that can
now be done is to watch the course Of
events. This decision was not hastily
reached. for the entire subject OF our
relations to the countries Of Central
and South America was considered and
discussed very carefully by the presi-
dent, with his constitutional advisors.
and there has been made close scru-
tiny Of the precedentA that might sur
fee for our guidance. These have
been found i'm at least three cases. The
first was fully set out in the message
OF President Buchanan TO congress in
1859, In that portion relating TO Para
quay.
For several years preceding this mes
sage the United States had great diff
Guilty in maintaining friendly relations
with Paraguay, the latter country be-
ing under the iron dictatorship OF Or.

OF excluding the rest of the world

Rev. George b. Gibson, pastor of the
Emanuel church, was again on the wit
ness stand today In the preliminary ex-
animation OF Theodore Durant. charged
with the murder Of Minnie Williams.
The defense believes II has a case
against the clergyman and will try to
show that he, ana not Durant. killed
both Miss Williams and Miss Lamont.

Blanche Lumonts body her aunt, Mrs.
Noble, received n paper containing the
rings worn by the missing girl. on the
paper were the names Of George Il.
King and Prof Schernstein. the nppar-
ent object being to connect these men
with the girls disappearance. Experts
declare the writing the be the disguised
hand OF Durant. In court today coun-
sci for the defense requested the Rev
DIR, Gibson to write the names of King
and Schernsteln. The minister did so,
but asked twice how to spell Schcrn-
STEMS name. Gihdon was calm and
collected on the stand, and was good

Take PITY Now.

There is a funeral. II is a bright
and beautiful day The sun shines
warm and people who have been
housed up all winter venture out,
Friends and old time acquaintance
crowd around the coffin and view
the remains, Maybe some Of them
haven't said kind word to or Of
the deceased for years. Perhaps
some OF them were his enemies in
life. But all Is now forgotten. Per-
haps uIl wish they had been more
friendly and said an encouraging
word now and then or made simple
inquiry, no matter how trivial, to
show that they had a little interest
IN their neighbours welfare. They
gaze upon his face, SO quiet and 50
cold, or smooth the snow-whitc
hair. They fold his ley hands for
getting that in life they failed TO
grasp them in kind fellowship.
With fearful tenderness they strew
flowers upon the bier. With low
ing thought they dwell upon some
kindly act or friendly word that
came from lips now dumb forever
The memory of all pride or anger
or cnmity is gone and in its plac,
are love, gentleness, forgiveness
/ peace. Hearts long ostrangcd re
| turn in remembrance of days o
yore and look with softened glanc,
upon this cold, unconscious clay.
All this is well. But there il
u better way pointed out by on
unknown poet, and here it is:-
'Oh, friends, pray tonight,
Keep not your kisses for my dea,
cold brow;
The way is lonely, let me feel then
now;
Think gently of me: ] am trave
worn;
My faltering feet are pierced wit
manga thurnj
Forgive, Oh! hearts cstranged, lol
give ! plead;
When dreamless rest is mine
shall not need
The tenderness for which | Ion
