advices received from Managua,
Nicaragua state that importing mer-
chants in western Nicaragua have
delayed mailing remittances of bills
Of exchange, because, they ASSERT,
their objections to the high rate Of
exchange = abont $410 OF Nicara-
gua's paper money tor 500 in gold.
This state of affairs, the merchants
say, is caused by the government
of Nicaragua buying about all the
foreign bills OF exchange offered
during the last three months for
the payment, in part, of "a cruiser,
the Armenius obtained from Ger
many.
Current rumors, however, say
tke cruiser was obtained on about
the following terms First, part
cash, the bills of exchange referred
| to by the merchants; second, pro-
misses to postpone the approval by
Nicaragua of the Merry-Samson
commercial treaty, written in 1900,
between the United States and
Nicaragua, thus continuing the inn
port tax of United States on Mica
ragua coffee, and causing the ship
ment of the coffee by the German
line of steamships; third, the pro-
mise of the lease of Corn Island,
near the eastern coast of Nicaragua,
as a coaling station for German
ships in the event of the United
States constructing an isthmian
canal across Panama instead Of
across Nicaragua, or in the event Of
/ the construction of the Nicaragua
Canal, if the United States does not
apply tor a lease of Corn Island; or

of Consequina, on the Pacific coast
