On these precedents rests the decision of
the administration to refrain from inter-
ference between Great Britain and Nc
aragua at this stage of the proceedings In
behalf of Nicaragua. though without sue
cess IL would appear that IL has been
urged that the occupation of Corinto by
the British troops would be in direct vio-
lation of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty be-
tween the United States and Great Britain.
provision of that treaty prohibits British
occupation of Central American territory.

and Great Britain agree that neither will
ever erect or maintain any fortihcations
the vicinity thereof, or occupy, or fortify,
or colonize. or assume or exercise any do

even more binding tnan the Monroe doc
by the United States. while the treaty is
an agreement TO which Great Britain Is
on both sides Of the water that the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty was abrogated, yet
the governments have never formally abb
rogated 1t. A resolution was introduced In
the last Senate to abrogate 1t, indicating
that those who oppose II consider IL In
very definite against Great Britain's ''oc-
cupying" or Exercising" any dominion
over Nicaragua.
Advices received here to-day say that
Vice Admiral Stephenson, In command or
the British fleet at Corinto. has given
Nicaragua detailed information as 10 the
time and circumstances OF the proposed
landing of British troops. The Admiral
will consider the time of the grace to run
not begin landing troops during the night.
He fixes o'clock tomorrow morning as
the precise time when the British forces
will move. The exactness and seeming
courtesy of this notification Is in line with
the notice of the British admiral before the
bombardment of Alexandria He fixed
o'clock a. m. as the time for opening fire,
at which exact minute the action began.
There Is reason to believe that Secretary
Gresham has cabled to ambassador Bayard
suggesting a brief respite as means
toward adjustment, but not proposing in
tervention. On this point a dispatch from
London this evening says: Efforts were
made this evening TO interview Embassa-
dor Bayard in regard to a statement that

the effect that there will be change In
the attitude assumed by Nicaragua toward

connections in New York city that Nicara-

Great Britain's ultimatum and would re-

DETROIT, April 25.-The prosecuting at

Bell, of Birmingham, England, cannot be
extradited on a charge of being an ac-

There is no evidence that Bell advised a

by the authorities that he was opposed to
such a course. but left the matter with the
girl herself.

government would not make such a confess
sion of weakness to say that a revolution

the dignity that would characterize such an
answer as Japan may make. While this is
the view of the officials they have not been
advised of the Russo-Japanese phase of the
subject The impression is growing how
