PROMOTER CRADLE.
Points Out Where Banker Williams
Acted In Bad Faith.

Omaha, Neb., Feb. S.-Francis C. era
BILE, promoter. arrived in Omaha from
St Louis today. and Immediately went
10 the home of his local representative,
NJ Parrote. After repeated refusals
Cradle consented TO talk Of the present
condition of his various enterprises.
Mr.. Cradle looks as though he had un-
dergone a severe mental strain.
The whole trouble was precipitated
by the action of President Williams of
the Chemical National bank of New
York in demanding the resignation OF
Cashier Quinlan. To show you that
President Williams action was unwar-
ranted, l had consultation with him
a few days previous to the resignation
of Cashier Quinlan. and told him that
l had already $780, 900 on hand with
which to pay the Indebtedness of our
companies to the bank, and that within
a few weeks time l could easily raise
the rest of the amount. If President
Williams had withheld action in the
matter for a fortnight his bank would
have received every dollar that was
due from the Edsemont companies. As
additional proof that President Will
liams did not act in good faith. either
with Cashier Quinlan or myself l will
merely state that the little flyer ne
speaks of investigating in connection
with the Edgemont companies, paid
him back in dividends three-fourths of
the capital he placed IN them

Captain Leutze's dispatches indicate
that The revolution in Nicaragua is as
Stunning 4 serious phase. In telegram
sent yesterday, Captain Leutze said
that the revOlutionists had taken pos
session OF the city of san Juan del Sur.
and that the government troops were
digging rife pits in the suburbs. pre-
paratOry TO making an attempt to dis
lOge them. Today he telegraphed that
the government forces were attacking
the city, and that he had landed
force of marines for the protection of
the United States consulate and Amer
lean interests generally. San Juan del
Sur is the northwest terminus of the
Nicaragua canal. and is a cable sta
ticn. The United States has three war
ships near the scene of the disturbance,

bCmbardment began yesterday, and in
the end the rebels were driven out of
town, which was entered and taken
possession of by the government troops.
The rebels retreated toward the interior
Of the country.
The opinion among the Central Amer
leans here is that the instruction has

it is doomed to failure. The outcome of
this uprising Is awaited with much in
terest because 1t IS the first real test
that has been made of the ability of the
Greater Republic to carry out that
part of the tripartite agreement that
pledges united efforts to suppress re-
belliOn in any one state.

road Strike Tragedy.
San Francisco, Feb. Samuel Wor-
den, convicted of wrecking mail train
bearing a guard of United States SOL
diers, near Sacramento, Cal, during the
great strike in 1894 and in whose be-
half the supreme court of the United
States declined to take favorable action
on his plea for a new trial. has con-
fessed his crime to Governor Budd with
a view to receiving a communication Of
the death sentence from the executive
of the state.
WOrden's confession covers 800
words and gives the full details of the
crime. telling that he, with several
others, had been ordered by a commit
tee of strikers to remove the rails near
the YolO bridge for the purpose of
wrecking the train carrying the troops
He gives the names of his accompliceS
and makes known many details of the
work of the strikers heretofore IN
known to the general public. EXPIRES
ident Cleveland interested himself in
Worden's behalf out of sympathy for
the mother of the condemned man, and
Governor Budd determined to probe
the matter to the bottom before decid-
ing the case, with the result that Wor-
den made the confession in the presence
of the governor, Warden Aull of the
Folsom penitentiary and a stenog-
rapher.
Wo-den throws the blame for the
Matching of the train wrecking plot on
Harry Knox, chairman of the grievance
committee of the Sacramento lodge Am
erican Railway Union. who. he saws gave
him all his instructions and decOyed him
into accompanying the gang of wreckers
to the YOlO bridge. He also charges COM
plicity in the plot to Mullin and Comp
ton the other two members of the com
mittee. who. with Knox managed the
strike on the Sacramento division of the
Southern Pacific.

Similar to Guldensuppe Murder
Floated On East River.

Floated On East River.
New York. Feb. S.-The mutilated
body of man. without a stitch of
clothing or it, was found in the East
river toda--. Half of the head was
missing. the right leg was cut off at
the nip, the left leg was cut off at the
knee and both arms We're gone, having
been cut OF close TO the shoulder.
The police believe that another muir
der mystery OF j similar character TO
the recent Guldensuppe case has been
unearthed by this discovery. The man
had apparently been strangled TO
death, stabbed with some sharp in
strLment. thought to be a stiletto. and
then cut to pieces.
Around the neck We're marks as
though a rope had forced its way into
the flesh. On the portion of the left
leg remaining on the body We're three
sharp cuts, which might have been
made with a stiletto. There We're
bruises or the back which might have
been caused by a struggle and a small
wound which is thought to be a bullet
hole.
Wherever dissection had taken place
the cuts were irregular and raZOr-like.
Inspector Cross said he was positive
the man had been murdered and that
the mutilaiion was TO conceal the
identity OF the victim.

MORMON COLONY IN MEXICO
THE GOVERNOR OF CHIHUAHUA
VISITS JUAREz.
Promised to Do All He Could to As
sist Them-Work on the Stake
Academy.

Colonia Juarez, Mexico, Feb. 1--WE
are having very cold weather here at
present, but better prospects for fruit,
owing to the steadiness of the weather.
The general health Of the people is
good.
Our stake academy is not as yet COM
pleted but we are pushing it with all
our might and we welcome the day
of its completion and hope for better
times in Mexico.
We had a visit recently from the
governor of the state of Chihuahua.
He was very much pleased with our
industrial efforts and gave US great
credit for being united in our temporal
affairs. He promised US a visit in the
near future and promised to stay long
err next time. He said that he would
do all he could in helping us to prevail
against the wilds of Mexico. His visit
was very short.
Our colonia is building up moderately
fast. We have many visitors and COM
ers. and a few gold seekers, who love
to penetrate and prospect the Sierra
Madres. Many gold stories are afioat,
some imaginary and others real Some
assays are very high in silver.
The near future will see the purchase
of COlonia Juarez de Campo. with its
thousands of acres. enclosed with a
moderately good barb-wire fence.
The railroad station being now at
Bublan makes it more convenient for
those who have little money to spend.
They can board the cars and eight
hours ride brings them to Cuidad
Juarez and FL Paso. Tex, and saves
nearly one-half their money, or, in
other words, they get twice as much
for their money.
The colonia employs a great many
natives, and pays them better wages
than they can get elsewhere in this re
public.
Profs. Nelson and Openshaw are with
us, and have been for some time past
teaching some of the sciences, as we'll
as organizing an elocution class. which
is made up principally Of young people
The professors put on a play last Sat
urday evening which seemed to excel
anything in this line that we have ever
had in JuareZ. The parts were rem
dered eXcellently and a full house was
in attendance.
We are talking and figuring on an
electric light plant We would like, if
possible. TO avoid paying 81 per gallon
for coal oil
We have an excellent market for
butter and eggs, and, in fact, all kinds
Of produce.
The cities and towns that are most
Independent are those surrounded by
good farming districts.
The prosperity of the Latter-day
Saints. more or less, is due to the very
fact that they are agriculturists. and
very seldom ever build d city out of
sight of a farming district.

AToNING THEIR HASTE.
German Authorities Crawfsh Out of
Fruit Prohibition.

Washington, Feb. SIT is intimated
that the German authorities are be-
ginning to believe that they have acted
with undue precipitation in the issu-
ance Of the decree excluding American
fruits. and it is said that a disposition
has been shown to attribute the va
riety Of action taken 10 the executive
zeal of the subordinate officers station
ed at the principal ports, and on the
frontier Today Ambassador White
cabled the state department that the
present importation Of live plants was
absolutely prohibited. but that fresh
fruit not infected was being admitted
freely. Inasmuch as the value of the
live plants and shrubs exported from
the United States to Germany last year
was only a little more than $4,000, the
last phase of the exclusion decree is
not regarded as of very large impor-
lance
