Action of FflibuSters LiaDle to Involve
Three Central American Republics.
WASHINGTON. April l2.-N1uch atten.
ton has been attracted to the landing
Of Nicaraguan tilibusters OH the 18TH
mus, which is liable to result in the
involving of tho three Central Ameri.
can republics. Information received,
however, shows that trouble has been
brewing in Colombia for some time
past and there have been frequent ru-
mors of the intention of Nicaragua to
attack Costa Rica. It appears that Mic
araguans have now actually made a
landing, though it is not clear whether
their movement is directed against Co.
lombia or Costa Rica. The place where
the party landed is on the Pacific side
Of the isthmus and the party made it's
way to place named David, near the
boundary line between Costa Rica and
Colombia, but within the lines Of the
tract of territory claimed by both ma
tions. The government of Colombia
has taken steps to send force against
the filibusters, assuming that they are
on Colombian soil, and it is possible
that the government of Costa Rica will
do likewise. In that case there may be
complications. Meanwhile the cruiser
Detroit has gone into the Gulf of CHR
qui, on the west side, to safeguard
American interests.
