NICARAGUAN CONFLICT
Reliable Reports of Battles
 Not Sent Out.
PRESS CENSORSHIP ESTABLISHED.

The Government Troops Are Not Hav- 1 ing Much Success suppresslng the Re-
 beIIion and the RevoIutionists Are Re
 ported Holding Their Ground-Hon-
 duras Troops Likely to Join Rebels.
 NEW YoRK March 24.-The revolu- tion in Nicaragua, according to intelli- genoe received in New York through private channels, is moro serious than the dispatches from that country would indicate. The strict press censorship established by President Zelaya renders it impossible for news of any character, except what is favorable to the govern ment, to be made public.
 Two facts seem to be well established. First, that zelaya is not suppressing the rebellion, and second, that the Hondu- rian troops, which arrived in Nicaragua on Friday last as the supposed allies of Zelaya, are quite as likely to aid the rebels as to aot in concert with the gov ernment troops. The first of these facts is based upon the almost certain knowl- edge that the reyolutionists have not lost ground; that they are confident of success since in every engagement they have been the aggressors; that they have the moral and material support of the great majority of the Liberal party which placed zelaya in power and that the government forces have maintained from the beginning Q purely defensive attitude.
 The Hondurian troops in Nicaragua are in the territory occupied by the rebels. Their present attitude is one of strict neutrality, but it is regarded as not improbable that their aid in the end may be given to Baca, the provisional president of the insurgent government. If Honduras espouses Baoa's cause, the latter will. it is believed. become vic- torious, since his troops arc armed with modern guns and animated by senti- ments of the loftiest patriotism, inas- much as they are fighting for constitu- tional liberty and to prevent the alleged dictatorship of Zelaya. Without Hon. duras' aid the result is likely to be in doubt for several months at least.
 Another element of uncertainty is the influence which the SalYadorean peace commission may exert upon the oontending factions. It is generally believed that their efforts will result in Q failure.
 shrewd observers of political events in Central America are of the opinion that all five of the republics may be- come embroiled unless a peaceful solu- tion is reached in few weeks.
