A dispatch to The Washington
Times from Cincinnati says:

Secretary of War, has returned from

Vorys, of Columbus, TO Cincinnati

uuaintance over the State, and have
said to him that | would like to have
him give as much time and attention
to the matter as he can. He has
said he will give me a definite answer
by next Monday "

is what Ohio people say it would amount
To if he should accept the invitation eN-

Mr.. Vorys has been one Of the largest
figures in practical politics IN Ohio He
was insurance commissioner under Her
rick, and was very close TO the CleYe-
land man. who is now enlisted under
the banner of opposition to Foraker and
Dick.
Charles p. Taft, confronted with the
big proposition of organizing great
hght in Ohio, came to Washington for
aid and comfort Mr.. Taft is a good
business man and a good newspaper
man. but the proposition Of organizing
Ohio for a fight on such a power as the
Fora ker-DiCk-COX machine was rather
a large contract.

Mr.. Taft found announcement In
Washington. He found the President
ready to help, and he found Theodore

No NEWS TODAY
ABOUT POSITION
OF MARIETTA

State Department officials are anxious
" awaiting further advices from the
scene Of hosulities in Nicaragua, they
being in doubt as TO the reliability of
yesterdays reports of a three-day bat
ale in which over 1000 Salvadoreans
were slain This report was furnished
10 an American consul in Nicaragua by
that government and officials here pre-
fer 10 have something from Honduras
before finally accepting it as true. De
velopments OF the past few days show
clearly that the situation is critical.
and the talk Of joint American and Mex
lean Intervention increases.
No Dispatch Today.
No news reached the State Depart-
ment through either diplomatic or con-
sular representatives or the Navy De-
partment today. If such a battle as
reported has taken place. it is thought
that other accounts should have come.
through by this time. if communication
has not been interrupted.
The Navy Department has received no
information from war ships in that ter
ritory, the last dispatch coming from
Commander Fullan. of the Marietta.
Thursday, under date of Wednesday al
ITuXillO. Il was said then that the
Marietta, after landing a squad of blue
Jackets, was coasting to Puerto Cortez
further up the Hondurau north coast.
Communication Interrupted.
The trip would require. under ordinary
circumstances. about twenty-four hours
so there is some disappointment that the
Marietta was not heard from TODAY. 1
This may be accounted for by the fact
that both Cefba and TruxiIlo are in the
hands Of Nicaraugans, who may have
intercepted communication To the out-
side world. Wire communication bv
land is also in a doubtful condition at
Honduras.

Many Very Beautiful Pictures.


Even now there are in the Beauty
Editors office several photographs of
such SURPRISING loneliness that there
seems no doubt that, with them, the
National Capital could come OF win
ner over the whole country. But. If
there are women here still loveIier, The
Sunday Times wants their photographs.

and Washington wants 10 so before the
country fully equipped with the picture
of the ope woman who tops all her sis
Jers@here in beauty.
Col. Henry Watterson, whose paper.
the Louisville Courier-JOurnaI, is seek
ing the beauty Of Kentucky, claims that
kentucky's women are necessarily the
most beautiful in the world. He can
see no other solution of the question. II
will, therefore, be of interest to him
TO know that in The Sunday Times
