CANAL MUST BE BUILT.


The Nicaraguan Government ThTeatans to
Annul Its Concessions.
NEW ORLEANS, July ia private
letter received here from Managua,
Nicaragua, contains the following,
which is stated with every degree OF
authority: The concession granted
several years, ago for the maritime
canal by the Nicaragua government
for the construction Of the Nicaragua
canal, is second time in danger Of be-
ing cancelled, and If . second time an
nulled will be otherwise disposed Of.
This second trouble is caused by threat
to build canal at a point called Tipi-
tapa, which would connect Lake Mic
aragua with Lake Managua. When the
concession was granted, it was agreed
that in return for the concession, q
canal would be built at this point with
in three years after the beginning OF
the work on the main line of the Mic
araguan canal.
Time Limit Has Expired.
The time limit placed upon the COM
pletion OF this waterway expired in
October, 1892, and the company has
made no steps toward carrying out their
contract to the Nicaraguan government,
which threatens the annulling Of the
concession, and their threats come in
the form Of resolution on the part Of
the president and his cabinet, which to
all appearance is final.
"The Nicaraguan Canal company
will be notified soon that the Nicara-
guam government will hold them to
their original proposition, and the
canal at Mpatapa must be constructed
and completed within short period.
In this they are firm, and should the
canal company either refuse or neglect
to carry out the original plan, the con-
cession will be annulled finally and for
ever. It is generally understood in
Managua, that if the work is not begun
very shortly, or if the canal company
does not take steps immediately to con-
vince the administration that the Tip
itapa canal will be constructed, the
next meeting Of congress Of Nicaragua
will ratify the cancellation Of the con-
cession, which Minister Gomez would
not hesitate TO bring about"
