County Physician Jones of Camden has
decided that an inquest is not necessary.
He stated this morning that the right man
was undoubtedly under arrest in the person
of Charles Gibson, the negro on whom were
found the pawn tickets for the two gold
watches stolen from the Horner home. This
fact he said. rendered an inquest unneces-
Sary.
Grated his determination to bring the muir
derer to justice with all possible dispatch,
but added that there would be no unseemly
haste, and that Gibson would not be rail-
roaded to trial this week.
Il will consult with Supreme Court JUS
tice Garrison today, and will be guided by
any suggestion that he may make" said
Prosecutor ScoVil.
Gibson maintains MS innocence Dut In
view of the overwhelming facts against
him the authorities ignore his statements
of denial as mere catching straws. He de-
clares that he got the gold watches from
Walter Scott, who worked on the Horner
farm with him. and that if anybody is
guilty Walter is. He a'so says he got Hor-
ners revolver. which was found in one of
his pockets. from Walter.
Scott three weeks ago last Sunday. was
driven from Horner's farm by the farmer
after the man had refused to work or to
leave. He left threatening to kill the old
man and burn down his place.

DIsQUIETING REPORT RECEIVED.
Alleged Intention of Nicaragua to
Proceed Against Salvador.


Conflicting reports, largely unofficial in
character. continue to reach the officials
here of a renewal of hostiities TN Central
America. According to certain naval off,
GERS, although the situation there appears
tc be quiet, there Is an undercurrent of
feeling of instability In the existing condi-
ton OF affairs due to the possibility of
renewed attack by Nicaragua on Salvador.
Such report reached the Navy Depart
mant today. and although it was generally
dscredited there, yet the opinion of those
who have been on the ground is that the
relations between the two countries are still
grave. Salvador is smarting under the
action of the Nicaraguans in sending an
expedition against it several months ago
wien the Momotombo went to AGA iutIa
and did more or less damage to Saliva
dorean interests. Later reports indicated
that Nicaragua would dispatch another
vessel to Salvador, but later it was an
nounced that that idea has been abandoned,
which led those interested to hope that
peaceful conditions would, continue Now
the report again reaches Washington that
Nicaragua again has determined to renew
operations against Salvador and the story
causes some uneasiness in Washington,
where the energy of all the officials. while
not seeking in any manner to interfere in
central American affairs, has been exerted
to maintain peaceful conditions there. The
latest report. however, lacks official con-
hrmation, but directions will be given to
commanders of United States vessels TO
safeguard American interests. The cruiser
Milwaukee and the gunboat Yorktown are
now in Central American waters on the
Pacific side. while the Dubuque is on the
Atlantic side.

be requested, and that in case of arbitra-
ton he will be conversant with the mat
tiers in dispute and the history of the con-
test since it's beginning.
