WASHINGTON. Jan. Ga long step
was made towards the re-establish-
rGent of the old satisfactory diplomatic
relations between the United States
and the Central American states to-
day, when Secretary Hay presented
Senior Correa to President Mckinley
as the charge d'affaires Of Nicaragua
in Washington. Senior Correa has been
the diplomatic representative here Of
the greater republic of Central Ameri-
ca, the predecessor of the United States
of Central America. The dissolution of
the greater republic leaves the consul
lar officers of that combination of
states in an underlined status They
hold eXequaturs from the diet of the
greater republic, and so cannot tech
nlcally claim to represent anything at
present. Meanwhile, as to our own
ministers in Central America, who
have been in the uncomfortable posi-
ton of being recognized by only one
of the several countries to which they
We're accredited, they will now regain
their rightful status, and from infor-
nation reaching Washington today, il
can be stated that the way has cleared
for the reception of United States
Minister Merry as minister of the Unit
ed States TO Costa RIGA, Salvador and
Nicaragua, and of United States Minis
ter Hunter as minister of the United
States to Guatemala and Honduras.

PEACE PROPOSALS.
Gar Working on Resolutions to
Present to the Conference

LONDON, Jan. GA dispatch 10 thu
Daily News from Odessa SAYS that in
view of the early assembling of the
peace conference, and encouraged by
the great and distinguished support
his proposals have found in England.
the car is now celebrating, in con-
junction with Count Muravieff. min
lister of foreign affairs, and the state
council. series of resolutions to be
submitted to the conference.
The car is devoting the closest per-
sonal attention to the formulation of
detailed Russian proposals in order to
make them generally acceptable to all
powers. His majesty is in no wise
unwarrantably sanguine of very great
tangible results from the first confer
ence. but he confidently trusts that
this will form the base for wide
spread development of the disarma-
ment idea in Europe.
The correspondent claims to have
authority for stating that the car en-
tertains the hope that If the peace
propaganda takes the same root on
the continent that it has taken in the
United Kingdom there is little doubt
that it will ultimately be accepted
universally.
