GREAT BRITAIN
v Arms NICARAGUA.
Warship Sent to Secure Recogni.
ton of Indians Treaty
Rights.

Washington, April 13.-Great Brit
ain and Nicaragua are. again disput-
ing over the Mosquito coast. London
authorities are about to protest against
any violation of the Zeledon- Wyke
treaty Of 1860, by the terms Of which
Great Britain agreed to recognize the
sovereignty of the republic Of Nicara-
qua over the country hitherto occu-
pied or claimed by the Mosquito In
dams, the British protectorate over
this territory ceased, and in return the
Nicaraguan government pledged itself
to assign the Mosquito reservation to
the Indians and grant them certain
rights Of local autonomy.
Diplomacy, it is earnestly hoped, will
accomplish all that is desired, but
the British warship Retribution has
left Jamaica for Bluefelds to settle the
dispute between the Nicaraguan au-
horities and the Cayman turtle fish
ermen, and also to arrange for the
release of the schooners seized by the
Nicaraguan government and of the
crews that have been imprisoned at
Gracios a Dios.
!, knowing the promptness Of South
American republics to appeal to the
United States for succor on the ground
that the Monroe doctrine is infringed
the British ambassador has been care
full to make absolutely clear to the
officials here the wishes Of his gov
eminent in the matter, and there ap-
pears at present no possibility Of the
! United States concerning itself in the
controversy, unless to tender it's good

Any scheme that would continue, in
effect, the situation Of mutual interest
which was obtained thru the instru-
mentality of the holding company,
will be objected to by the attorney
general Of the United States.
The more important part of the
government contention is that these
winding up of the old company are
private matters, and should not be
considered as part Of the original suit.
They are matters of business detail
to be settled between the parties
themselves, or, If the parties cannot
suits to determine the equities. The
original suit is finished and nothing
remains but to carry out the order Of
the court. This the Hartman inter-
ests seek to delay. The court says. in
effect: Distribute the assets SO that
the illegal combination was attempt
ed. Just who will get what is not for
the court to say. The court will insist
only that the combination be broken
up and that competition be restored.
Anything like conspiracy, collision or
cooperation looking to the accom-
plishment by indirect methods of the
objections sought and the. conditions
brought about by the Northern Securi-
ties company will be stopped by the
court.
The circuit court therefore, if the
attorney general is sustained, will
have to dismiss the petitions of Harri-
| man and the replies of the Morgan
| Hill interests and simply direct the de-
PENDANTS to the original suit in general
terms to wind up the merger company
and restore the property Of the roads
to their original status in some way to
be determined by them; amicably, If
possible, but if not, then thru separate
suit and in equity. The government
will look only to results and will call
to the attention of the circuit court
any condition which violates the judg-
ment. szG.
| If the circuit court of appeals were
1 to permit this intervention. and under
take to decide as to how the stock is
to be distributed, the losing side would
promptly appeal TO the supreme court
| and another. year or more would be
| lost before the. case could be. finally
wound up and a. decree entered. The
attorney general objects very strenu.
ously to this or any other attempt te
graft a new suit upon the government
case. He objects particularly to such
an attempt by the Hartman interest:
