Washington, July 2S.-The life of DR..
Russell Wilson, of Ohio, who was cap
tured with the revolutionist party in
Nicaragua, has been saved thru repre-
sentations made by Minister Corea of
that country. The state department
received the following cablegram today
from Consul Donaldson, Managua, Nj
caragua:
"As a courtesy to the United States
and sympathy for his mother, the pres
ident will commute Wilson's death
sentence
Wilson was one of several Americans
who joined a filibustering expedition,
which landed at Monkey Point, near
Bluefieds, early in July. Most Of the
party was captured or killed. Wilson
would have been summarily executed
but for the interposition of Senor Co
rea, Nicaraguan minister here. Having
secured a stay of proceedings and guar
antee of legal trial. the minister has
now induced President Zelaya to COM
mute the death sentence imposed upon
Wilson by the court martial. 1t is pre-
sumed the Communication is to imprison-
ment for time, and then expulsion
from Nicaragua.
