carrier running out of the little town

The kerosene oil spilled out into his

mail, but some of the mail and the

SENSATION IN SALVADOR.
Much Talk Over the Removal Of Con.
sui Jenkins.

MEXICO CITY, July 6.-According to a
special cablegram received today by the
Associated Press at this city from Salvador
the recent removal of American Consul
General Jenkins has caused a great sensa-
ton in the official and diplomatic circles of
the republic. An open accusation was made
that Consul Jenkins was the organizer and
instigator of the revolution in Salvador
1t is declared that these charges were con-
veyed to Washington, and Inspector of
Consulates Murphy was instructed to in
vestgate the case. After a three months
investigation Inspector Murphy recon-
mended that Jenkins be removed, and he
was consequently recalled.
1t was charged that during the recent
war Jenkins delivered cables to secret
agents of Zelaya stationed at San Salvador
These cables, 1t is said, bore the signature
of United States Minister Merry. The gov
eminent at Washington has demanded an
explanation from President Zelaya, because
of his unwarranted use of the name of
United States diplomatic officer.
In support of the charges the Salvadorean
government has filed at the State Depart
ment at Washington copies of the cables
which passed between President Zelaya and
his agents through the alleged concurrence
Of Consul General Jenkins.
President Zelaya is stationing 1000 troops
on the Salvadorean border at the port of
Corsiguila preparatory to a second invasion
of Salvador.
