 MASAouA. Nicaragua, May 6-Th Nioaraguan government having. through the Salvadorean minister at London, ao- cepted the modified ultlmatum of the British government tho dispute botwcou the two countries is practically at m end.
 Orders were cablod from London to Rear Admiral Stephenson, commanding the British squadron at Corinto cilrootins him to evaeuato tho port on Sunday.
 Tho warshlps presented scene of order ly hustle Sunday morning. giving ovis denoe that something out of the usual course was going on. Boats passed fre- quently between the shore and tho yes. sells, the little midshlpmen In oharRe woar- ing an mir of greater importance than usual. They were evidently bearers of communications to Captain Trench of the Royal Arthur. who. upon the aeixure of Corlnto. had been appointed by Admiral Stephenson governor of the port
 Tho foroo originally landed by the Brit ish to hold tho place was 400 blue jackets and marines. but on Friday, whom it be- came known that the tension bad become relaxed, all of thom, with the exception of b9 marines and tholr offioers wore with drawn.
 shortly after the flag denoting that re- ligious sorviocs wcro in progrcss on board tho warships was hauled down, the ma rines, who had been drawn up in front of tho custom house. wore ordcrcd Co return to their ships A flow minutes later the British flag was hauled down from the government building, and soon tho soil of Nicaragua was rid of the British invad. crs and tho long strokes of tho sailors were sweeping the heavy boats to the war ships lying in the harbor.

 Tho warships wero soon riding at short cables, but their departure wns delayed by tho tide. which did not scrve until in tho afternoon. 1t was expected that the flagship would depart with the other two vessels of tho noot, but whom tho water was high enough on tho bar to permit of tho passage of the vessels only the Wild Swan and the Satellite got under way, and with the red ensign of Britain snap ping in the brcozo stood out Go sea Tho hagship-the Royal Arthur-paid out her cable again, and this fact was believed Co confirm report that she would salute tho Nicaraguan flag whom the government TO- possessed itsolf of tho port
 As has before bcen stated. Nicaragua has agreed to pay the t77. 500 demanded by Great Britain for the expulsion of Pro consul Hatch and for other alleged dam agos to British subjects arising from tho recent troubles in the Mosquito rcscrva- ton, but instead of paying tho money at the oannon's mouth, as tho British gov ornment originally demanded should be dono. she will pay it In London ib days after the last vessel of the British hect withdraws from Corinto Thoro arc othcr | questions of damages to British subjects to Do settled but Nicaragua believes that | if thoso questions are submitted to an im- partial commission the judgment will be rendered in her favor.
 The action of San Salvador in Ruarnn. teoing the payment of tho indemnity. as in fact her oourso throughout the whole dispute, is very favorably commented upon in official circles, and 1t Is believed that an entente will be established that will lead to results beneficial to both countries. It would not bo at all surprising fl this trouble with Great Britain should result in tho formation of an alliance between the several Centrcl American states for defensive purposes.
