ZELAYA IN TROUBLE
Revolution Feared Against
Him In Nicaragua.
REFUGEES IN COSTA RIGA ARE ARMING
The Dictators BOnilla and Gutierrez Not
Expected to Aid Zelaya-RevoIu-
tion Will Stop the Gathering
of the Coffee Crop.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-Advices re-
ceived from Nicaragua, under date of
Nov. IL, state that thousands of Nicara-
guam refugees in Costa Rica are re-
ported to be arming themselves near
the boundary of Nicaragua and to be
threatening revolution against Pres
ident Zelaya's government. The lat
ter's army is concentrating near the
frontier under General Hierra, a Co.
lombian revolutionist, ready for a de-
fensive or offensive movement against
the revolutionists.
In the event of war between Nicara-
qua and Costa Rica it is quite probable
that the dictators of Honduras, Bonil-
la, and of Salvador, Gutierrez, will not
assist President Zelaya, although they
are bound by the treaty of Anapola. in
1894, between the three presidents to do
SO, because both the members of the
diet of the Greater Republic of Central
America from Salvador and from Hon.
duras are bitterly opposed to Jose D.
Gamez, stanch friend of President Ze-
laya, who is known to have been the
provoking cause, to a large degree, of
all the revolutions in Nicaragua against
the government of President Zelaya.
Gamez has great antipathy to Costa
Rfcans and their government and is a
man generally despised for his heart
lessness, unreliability and efforts to get
other peoples money by exciting and
provoking people to conspiracies and
revolutions against the government of
Nicaragua.
One serious trouble and danger as a
consequence of the present disturbed
political condition threatening revolu-
tion is that the laboring class will be
forced into the army on one side or the
other and that the coffee crop, now
ripening in these states. will not be
gathered
1t is probable that the apparently i'm
pending revolution will result in a long
term of peace in any event, especially
so if President Zelaya is successful, as
in that case he will be virtually without
any strong opponents Should the rev.
olutionists succeed and place ex-Presi-
dent Cardenas in the presidential chair
then, it is said, long peace and pros
perity, as in his former administration,
can be expected.

RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES.
What the United States Has Received

WASHINGTON. Nov. 30-The forth
coming November statement of the
government receipts and expenditures
will show that the receipts during No

which indicates a total of about 5,O00.- =
900 for the month. This is a trifling
Improvement over October when the
receipts were 24,991, AIS The deficit
thus far during November stands at
$S,572 109, which is larger than was ex-
pected.
The deficit for the fiscal year stands
at $46,5S1, 120, the receipts having been
$127, ,701, 100 and the expenditures $174,-

The receipts from customs so far this
fiscal year undoubtedly will fall consid-
erably short of the estimates made by
the managers of the new tariff bill dur
ing its tendency in congress. At that

would yield about s1SO,OO0O0O during the

to be that the receipts from this source

WASHINGTON, Dec. /. = Minister
Hoshi of Japan will return here on Dec.
10 after an extended visit home, dur
ing which he has had an opportunity to
confer with the Japanese authorities
concerning the annexation of Hawaii to
the United States. His return puts at
rest reports that he had been recalled
permanently. 1t is understood that his
instructions will permit the Hawaiian
question. so far as it concerns Japan, to
be brought to satisfactory conclusion.
When Japan first presented a protest
against the annexation of Hawaii to the
United States, several spirited notes
passed between Secretary Sherman and
Mr. Hoshi. Since then, however there
has been change in the Japanese min
istry, Count Okum, minister of foreign
affairs, retiring. This has given more
conciliatory outlook to the negotiations,
and little doubt is felt that the return
of Mr.. Hoshi will bring about a satis-
factory termination of the incident

TELLS OF THE MURDER.
Lizzie de Kalb DiscIoses What She Knows
of the Staying of Mrs. Kaiser.


NORRISTOWN, Pa, Nov. 3O.-Eliza-
beth de Kalb, under arrest here with
James A. Klemmer for completely In
the murder of Mrs. Emma P. Kaiser, OF
which the victims husband has been
convicted, confessed her knowledge of
the crime to her lawyer and the district
attorney.
Kaisers plea was that on Oct. 2S,
1896, while he was driving with his wife
they were attacked by highwaymen,
who shot her. 1t was afterward shown
that the man had conspired to get SILL
900 insurance on his wifes life.
Miss de Kalh was arrested in Tren-
ton, charged with completely, and KLEIN
mer was caught in Newark. The wo-
man, in her story, attempts to show her
own innocence of any knowledge of the
crime. She declares that Klemmer fired
the fatal shot while Kaiser held his
wife so that she could not escape the
bullet.
AS Klemmer approached the Kaiser
team he was lost sight of by her, she
says, in the darkness. Then the screams
of woman were heard and there came
the report of a pistol. Kaiser's cries for
help then were heard by the woman
in the carriage. She drove forward and
saw Mrs. Kaiser's lifeless body.
Klemmer jumped into vehicle with
Miss de Kalb. the confession says, and
drove rapidly to Norristown. He went
to hotel and by that time had recov-
cred his composure. He decided to drive
back to the scene of the crime to avert
suspicion, and invited Lulu Oliver,
daughter of a woman employed in the
hotel, to join them. BY that time the
news of the murder had reached town.
When they reached the place. however,
there was nothing to be seen.
