talked over and it was believed that
the best chance to make the arrest was
offered at this time.

BRITISH SUBJECTS UNEASY.
Revolt Probable In Island of Ruatan,
Bonacco and Truxillo.

Revolt Probable In Island of Ruatan,
Bonacco and TruxilIo.
Mobile, Ala, Oct. Captain Coe
of the British schooner Clara L by
er, which has just arrived from Rua
tan, reports that there is an intensely
uneasy feeling among the British sub
jects in the bay islands of Ruatan, Bo
naCco and Truxillo in consequence Of
Great Britain's ceding those islands to
Honduras.
Since the islands have been ceded
to Honduras, the inhabitants who have
all along considered themselves Brit
ish subjects, are in doubt as to wheth
er they owe allegiance to Honduras
or Great Britain and in consequence
are much disturbed lest they shout;
be impressed into military service by
the HOndurian government.
There is great probability of a revo
luton in the near future. The pres
idential election takes place early this
month and two cOntesting candidates
Manual Bonilla and Juan Angel Arias
are both popular and have strong back
ing. 1t is feared in that country that
the defeated candidate will not abide
by the decision of the ballots, bu
viii rally his forces and precipitate 6
revolution.
If a revolution should occur tht
bay islanders will be on the horns Of
bad dilemma, not knowing whether
they are British or Hondurian sub
jects.
Some of the islanders have beer
drilled, but as yet no effort has beer
made to press them into military ser
vice.
