Nothing Good for MIR, Frey.

A delegate to the national coaven-
ton of the moulders at Indianapolis
has come out hard against J. P. F.
Frey, claiming that Mr.. Frey is fish
ing for the office of third vice pres

cal delegate with whom The Spy man
was talking last evening, said that Mr..
Frey was unseated at the session of
the New England conference board at

Frey is unpopular with New England
delegates. He could give no reason
for the turning of the tide towards
some other candidate than Mr. Frey,
except that the latter had not prac-
ticed what he preached. Inas1nuch as
the man with whom The Spy reporte-
talked has announced his intention of
publicly accusing Mr.. Frey of being
unfaithful to union principles, interest
ing developments are expected.

NICARAGUA is IN BAD SHAPE
The Latest Revolution Is Causing the
Government IL Great Deal
of Trouble. ,.

MOBILE, Ala, July 22.-Mail advices from
Central America by the last fruit steamer
indicate that the latest revolution in Mica
ragua in the Meridional department is
causing the administration of President
Zelaya serious concern. Since the rising Of
General Reyes, in the Bluefelds region, there
have been a series of unsuccessful attempts
against Zelaya that he has subdued with aid
from the liberal administration OF Honduras
and Salvador. 1t is said in a letter received
in this city yesterday that zelaya had issued
an order for a forced loan of $500, 900, to be
raised Immediately, and that his proclama-
ton instructs the departmental commanders
to insist that every available resident OF
Nicaragua shall assist the republic without
delay.
The letter adds that the censorship OK
ercised mainly by government control
of the telegraph lines in the republic makes
it most difficult to learn any news OF the
revolution in Nicaragua except that sent
to the press of this country from the border
ing republics not in sympathy with Zelaya,
but that the fact Of the forced levy tells
eloquently the distress Of Zelaya's admin
istration.
