COLOMBIA AND NICARAGUA
EXPLANATION OF LATTER'S AID To
REBELS TO BE DEMANDED WITH
FORCE OF ARMS

washington, Aug. 29.-Colombia will formally
demand of Nicaragua explanation in regard
10 the latter country's alleged participation in
The revolution against the Colombian Govern
,neut, and back up her demand with the most
formidable land and naval force she can muster
as soon as the present rebel activity on the
isthraus has been crushed Information to this
effect was received from an authoritative source
in Washington to-day.
The above intelligence causes considera BILE
surprise in Diplomatic circles, for only a few
weeks ago IT announced that Mr. Concha
the Colombian Minister, and Mr.. Corea, the
Nicaraguan Minister, had established an entente
cordiale between their respective governments:
that bygones were to be regarded as bygones,
and that the time ripe for a satisfactory
understanding by the two governments
/. is now learned that the initial move toward
the establishment Of an amicable understanding
between Nicaragua and Colombia was made by
Nj. Corea, who also proposed to Mr.. Concha an
adjustment OF the difficulties which have so
long been pending over Colombia's claim to the
ownership Of a strip Of what is claimed by
Nicaragua 10 be part of her coast line Minister
Concha declined to accede to the latter pro-
posal, declaring that a claim which Colombia
had brought forward for so many years could
not be adjusted, or. in fact brought in any
methods suggested by the Nicaraguan Minister
However. Mr.. Concha was entirely willing to
join Mr.. Corea in the establishment of an en-
tente cordiale.
Shortly after Minister Corea's arrival in Mica
ragua- where he went some weeks ago on
leave Of absence, the Colombian officials here. il
is stated, received information to the effect that
arms and ammunition for the Colon bian rebels
on the isthrnus were being shipped from Corinto.
The Colombian Legation here had been receiv-
ing reports Of this character continually. and in
view OF the arrangement effected with the
Nicaraguan Minister before he left Washing
tor. Seflor Concha lost no time in calling Mr.
Corea's attention TO the matter The latter off,
clal replied that President Zeiaya would imme
diately institute investigation ascertain
If the reports were well founded a short time
ago. however, more reports were received in
Washington to the effect that Nicaragua still
continued her material support of the revolu-
tiontsts on the isthmuS, and now Colombia, IL
is stated, finds her patience exhausted, and has
decided 10 present formal demand for an eX-
PLANTATION Meanwhile. 1t is understood the en-
tente cordiale has only nominal existence.
II is not anticipated that the affair will lead
TO an actual with Nicaragua, but. neverthe-
less, Colombia is making preparations to back
up her representations with a reinforced army
and navy. It develops that the purchase Of the
well armed vessel at Seattle, as well as
several prospective purchases Of warships for
the Colombian navy. have Nicaragua, rather
than the present troubles the isthnus. in
