Chicago, March 25.-That there are other
discrepancies in the subtreasury here in
additien 10 the missing $4,000 was
se ,rnsss to-day Just what amounts have
not been accounted for are not known
positively 10 the public. II Is said how
ever, that during the recent count of the
ss0C00.00o in the vaults and in checking
up the books several irregularities were
discovered.
-Four experts from the United States
Treasury at Washington have completed
the tremendous task of counting all the
wealth in the subtreasury. something
more than S600O0.000 In silver and gold.
Previous TO the mysterious disappearance
of the $i73.000, which is stlll battling the
Secret Service men as well as all OF Chi
eago's detectives, the cash in the vaults
had not been counted for several years.
It Is only customary In the government
to check up the tons of money in the
subtreasury when a large amount is
stolen or on occasions when a change IS
made in the subtreasurership.
Thorough Inspection Made.
Books and papers OF the different Off
elals and Of the various departments were
inspected thoroughly by the expert ac-
countants from Washington. In several
instances discrepancies were found in the
methods Of bookkeeping in vogue. In the
balance. however. Of the bOokkeeper's ac-
counts and the cash on hand the differ
ence is said TO have been considerable,
but TO just what extent is not known.
Nearly all the money which had been
checked in, with the exception of the Sl7S,-
600, was accounted for.
The true facts in the case. and just what
was discovered by the ehecking-up OF the
governments money by the experts are
to be placed before the Secretary Of the
Treasury at Washington. An effort is be-
ing made TO keep the matter quiet.
Teller Fitzgerald, from whose cage the
money was taken. is still under suspen-
sion. It Is believed by many that he is
losing his mind.

Special 20 The Washington Herald
Mexico City, Mexico. March 25.-Teguci-
galpa, the capital Of Honduras. has fallen
before the Nicsraguan armys assault
and Il is now confidently expected here
that the war, that has so far been con
fined 10 the tive countries, VIII spread 20
Salvador and Guatemala.
Salvador. it is well known, has been
sending secret aid to President Bonilla, Of
Honduras.
New. it is thought: both heretofore neu-
traI countries viii come ont from under
cover and go publicly to Che aid Of the
defeated army.
Reports from Managua are TO the ef-
feet that In capturing ChoIuteca, the
Nicaraguan troops succeeded in getting
about 1000 rifles with ammunition, in ad-
dition to staying about 200 Hondurans
The latter, it is reported. butchered
many of the Nicaragpans before the bat
tie turned in their favor. and the Mica
raguan troops are said 10 have retaliated
when the town was captured.
However, it is reported here that the
NicaEaguan government has sent out
word that all prisoners of war must be
treated with respect.
II Salvador and Guatemala did not
show an inclination 10 take hand with
Honduras, it is believed here the war
would come TO a speedy close, but it is
admitted that the addition of the other
two countries complexities the situation
and may prOl0ng the struggle indefinitely

Mrs. Fairbanks, wife OF the Vice

the Illness that prevented her from

In speaking Of the railroad situation.
after he had talked with the Chief Ex-
eeutive, Mr.. Fairbanks made the state
ment that the present tie-up in the Mid
die West has made it impossible for
him to get his corn shipped from his
farm in Illinois
This seems to be a very serious SIT
uation," said the Vice President. My
corn has been waiting since last fan to
get to market. My brother. who also
has a farm in Illinois, had a like eX.
perience. There seems to be a conges-
tion of freight and a shortage of cars.
and as far as l know. it continues
nearly AS bad as ia the beginning
MIR. Fairbanks would offer no solu-
tion for the railroad problem. and de-
clined with thanks TO discuss the next

SENIOR COREA NOTIFIED.
Nicaraguan Minister Hears of COun-
try's Victory.

SenOr COTea. the Nicaraguan Minister.
last night received a telegram from
President Zelaya, stating that the Mica
raguan army was occupying Tegueigalpa-
Advices received at the State Depart
merit last night from its representatives
in Honduras are 10 the effect that Presi-
dent Bonilia. of that caHntry. has sue
oeeded in reorgauizing his army. and in
tends 70 prolong the struggle with Mica
ragua. The information comes from a
reliable source, and indicates that the
fears Of Nicaragua that Honduras might
be able TO form an open alliance with
Salvador and Guatemala may have been
realized.
The fact that the Honduran President.
who has been leading his troops in person.
after repeated disastrous defeats, has
been able 10 get his army together again,
IS believed 10 mean that he must have re-
ceived material aid from Salvador and
Guatemala.
Only Sunday the dispatch from Central
America showed that Bonilla's forces had
been routed, and that he was himself fee
ing toward the coast, with the evident
EAA EooC III iNt1hAAtE TIE NDA=tlli II was
10 prevent him from getting away and
thus actively enlisting the support Of the
two sister republics that the Nicaraguans
sent their gunboats TO Amapalo for the
purpose OF intercepting him.
The willy president general, however,
seems TO have eluded his would-be cap
tors. and 10 have re-established himself
in a position TO continue the fighting
While neither side 10 the controversy
thus far has indicated a desire 10 allow
the United States and Mexico to adjust
their difference, there has, nevertheless,
been q willingness on the part of Mica
ragua TO have these two countries inter
Cede to the extent of insisting that Saliva
dor and Guatemala shall maintain
neutrality. but the efforts in that direc-
tion have accomplished nothing.
That Honduras, which has sustained
one defeat after another, has not been
the first to seek peace through the inter
vention of the United States and Mexico
is explained by the apparent fact that
she has received encouragement from her
neighbors, Guatemala and Salvador, tC
continue the fighting, and assurances OF
support in material way. It is ad-
mitted on All sides that Nicaragua can
not hold the advantage she has gained
by her series of victories. against the
combined forces 81 Honduras, Salvador
and Guatemala.
As the situation now stands. this gov
errment can DO little toward bringing
about a cessation of hosulities. as it must
wait until one or the other of the eoun-
tries involved seek its assistance in re-
storing peace. However. through the
Mexican Ambassador to the United
States the effort is being made, but thus
Ear with no apparent success.
