CORPUS.
GRESHAM cLosETED WITH MIC
ARAGUAs MINISTER TALKING
OVER THEBR1TGsH ULTIMATUM.
SOME PRESIDENTIAL APPOINT
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. NEWS.

Washington. March 25.--The United
States supreme court today began hear
Ing argument in the case of Il. V. Debs,
president OF the a. r. u, and others
who participated with him In the Chi
esgo strike. Judge Lyman Tiumbull
opened for the petitioners.
He contoded that the primary object
OF the A. u. r.. was to bring about a
peaceful adjustment OF the difficulties
between the Pullman company and It's
employees. Furthermore, he declared
that this object would have been ac-
compllshed but for the refusal OF the
Pullman officials to grant any conces-
sions, The great question was, he said,
whether a court OF equity had Jurisdic-
tiOn In a case OF the character OF the
one under consideration. and proceeded
TO argue the constitution bearing on 1t.
Assistant Attorney General Whitney
followed on behalf OF the government.
The question at issue IS, whether anti
trust law applies TO conspiracies OF the
kind in which Dcbs and others were
engaged, None OF the parties to the
present case were engaged In the Chi
cngo strike as employees Of any OF the
roads. They had organized for the pur-
pose Of boycotting the Pullman COM
pany, and In doing that proceeded to
paralyze the railroad companies. which
they were doing when the injunction
was issued. The main object OF the or
gonlzatlon was to secure entire control
OF the railroads OF the country,
Mr.. Gregory OF counsel FOR the petit
TONERS and Edwin Walker Of Chicago.
special assistant United States attor-
ncy, concluded the argument for the
day. Attorney General Olney. for the
government, and Mr. barrow, for the
petitioners, Will conclude the argument
tomorrow.

the cause OF the attack have been
made, and Senator Butler, It Ia under
stood, says previous to this attack upon
him there were no hard feelings exist
ing between Smith and himself.

Butler that he (Smith) could not be
found In his office when wanted to at
tend to business, and this made him
mad.

OF Great Britain to Nicaragua Being
Discussed

Washington. March 25,--Dr. Guzmun.
the Nicaragua minister, was at the
state department this morning, and the
inference Is that he has been consult
ing Secretary Gresham respecting the
British ultimatum. 1t is evident that
the state department Is deeply con-
uerned In this matter and n statement
from Ambassador Bayard. explaining
the purpose Of Great Britain, Is anN-
iously looked for Il is not believed
that our government can object TO the
creation Of a commission of fair COM
pleNlon TO ascertain fixed damages sus-
tulued by British subjects in Nicura-
qua, and the issue appears to have
narrowed down To the demand of an
indemnity Of $4,000 FOR Inv expulsion
of Mr., Hatch. the British consular
agent Mt Bluenelds 1t is felt here that
depressed financial conditions uf Near
aqua make this rather heavy demand,
but aside from this, there is already
% disposition to examine int the mat
ter further and ascertain whether the
Nlcaragunn government did not act
entirely within its rights In expelling
the consular agent.
IL was charged by the Nicaragunns
that Mr. Hatch who was not dlpln-
matte officer aud could claim no OK
emption ON that score, took an active
part IN the political turmoil In Blue
fields and did much to secure the over
throw Of the Nicaragunn government
In the town and the Reinstatement OF
Chief Clarence. II this We're true. then
under ordinary conditions there would
be little doubt OF the right OF the Nj
cnraEunn government TO cxpel him
from the country. But the conditions
In Bluruolds at the time were NOT or
binary, for according to the British
contention, the Mosquito reservation
was actually under British PROTECTOR
ate up To the date OF the MOSQUITO con-
veniiup which resolved ON the Incnr-
poration Of their lands into Nlearapua
and that before this latter date tha
Nicnroguuu government could not INV
tully exercise tho right of cNpulsion Of
British subjects In the reservation
hence the demand In the case of Hatch
Is entirely different from any cnse on
record. and 1t Il feared Mt the stnte
department that II Will require tho ey-
eroise of great caution TO safely deter
