Washington, April 17.-Naval move
ments show that the gunboat Boston
has started from Amapala, Honduras,
for Corinto, Nicaragua, to convey
President Zelaya to Amapala for the
conference he will have there with
President Figueroa. The Chicago, it
Is believed here, will be used to con-
vey President Figueroa to the confer
ence, which will be held either at the
city of Amapala or on board one of the
American vessels to be anchored In
Fonseca bay.
At the state department it was ad-
mitted that an agreement between
the United States and Mexico has
been entered into by which a guaranty
has been given that there shal be no
hostile demonstrations between the
forces of Guatemala and Salvador on
the frontier during the conference. 1t
was said that this does not mean it
will be necessary for the United
States and Mexico to use force to sup
press "emigrados" across the border
by any of the armed bands in the vari'
Gus Central American states. The
PRONUNCIATION of a joint order by Mex

such excursions. it is believed, will be
sufficient to guarantee quiet while the

are comforting.
