MULE CAUSE OF WAR
IN SOUTH AMERICA
Strange Explanation Given of
the Strife Between Nicara-
qua and Honduras. y

WASHINGTON, March 17,-One
mule-a mule belonging to senor Ireno
Salgado-was tho chief object il dis
pute between Nicaragua and Honduras
when they began the quarrel which
finally ended in the war that is threat
ening the peace of al Central America,
according to the official communications
exchanged by the Ministers of For
eign Affairs for tho two republics,
copies Of which communications have
been received III Washington.
The controversy began when Au'
gusto C. Coello, the Honduran Minister
FOR Foreign Affairs, wrote note to
Jose D. Gomez, the Nicaraeuan Min
lister for Foreign Affairs, on January
2S, protesting against the theft of a
mule from Irene Salgado by thirty
five Nicaraguan cavalrymen, who were
charged with entering Honduran terri
tory.
Diplomatic Reply.
In reply Scnor Gomez said che
Nicaraguans did not quite enter Hon
duran territory, although they passed
near to the little town of Los Manos
in that republic. The taking of the
mule was not denied; but Senor Gomez
insisted In his letter that Salgado was
not a Honduran citizen, but a Mica
raguan who had TO leave that country
because of the part he played in a
revolution two years before, Conse
quently Nicaragua maintained that
Honduras had no right to fly to the de
fense of Salgado's mule.
This note brought spirited reply
from Honduras, the Minister for For
eign Affairs announcing that Ireno Sal
gado, the Nicaraguan refugee, was liv
ing IN Tegucigalpa, happily engaged il
trade there, while man by the same
name, q most reputable and respected
farmer, Honduran of unquestiouabIc
citizenship, lived at Los Manos ana
owned the much mooted mule.
Nicaragua replied that it was true
! that Colonel Juan I, Rocha, who com
manded a party of cavalrymen, took
mule near Los Manos, but reiterated
that the animal was not taken In Hon
duran territory. Dispatches grew
| longer as the controversy wake,
warmer. Other questions arose. Thel
the arbitration tribunal was opene,
and finally the break came when Presi
dent Zelaya of Nicaragua withdrew hi
member Of the board Of arbitration an,
war between Honduras and Nicaragu
actually began.

BURROWS RELIEVED
Michigan Senator Pleased That Next
Congress Will Not Tackle Tariff.

Mlcmgan senator oleaSed That Next
Congress Will Not Tackle Tariff.
Special to The Tribune
WASHINGTON. March 17.-Senator
Julius Caesar Burrows of Michigan is
relieved. His peaceful state of mind
is due to the declaration from the White
House that the tariff issue will not be
forced upon the next session of Con
gres5. SIN my Judgment said the
Senator, sit would be mistake to
force the tariff issue Just before Pres
idential election. 1t would certainly
cndanger the party. Just as did the Nc
Kinley tariff. The difficulty with the
Mckinley tariff was that it became
operative Just before a Presidential
election, and that previous to the cleo
tion sufficient time had not passed to
demonstrate whether it was good or
bad. 1t always takes quite a period,
we'll along towards a year, for bust
ness to adapt itself completely to Il
new tariff law. Should a new tariff
schedule be adopted at the next ses-
sion of congress, apparent difficulties
would quite likely arise during the
early period of It's trial, and those diff
culties might he exaggerated IN the
public mind Just at tho election period.
That would work to the serious disad-
vantage Of the Republican party

BINGHAM THREATENED
WITH DESTRUCTIVE FIRE
But Fortunately the Flames
Were Confined, and No Great
Damage Results.
Special TO The Tribune.

Special 70 The Tribune.
BINGHAM, March ia sudden
Ere al 1890 this morning threatened
TO infict serious damage upon this
town, but fortunately it was confined
practically to the building in which it
started.
1t began in Serrc S restaurant. Serre
had left 2 smouldering fire In his range,
but in some way it unexpectedly started
up, and the heat set a6re the thin par
tition that was too near the range. On
this catching fire, a lamp got heated
and exploded, and the fire spread hot
and fast. The fire department was
slow in getting a stream of water on
the flames, because the water master
had borrowed the wrenches and failed
10 return them TO the city hall, so that
the apparatus was useless for while.
The loss on the building will be
$500. Serre 8 loss is $3.50. j. A.
Harry, iewcler, lost $3.50, mostly by
breaking windows and the throwing of
his stuff into the street. Carl Edstrom,
harncss shop. lost 500 by the soaking
of his goods with water.
For a time the FIRE threatened to burn
up the town. as the wind was blowing,
and the heat was so intense that the
big plate glass window III the saloon
aud drug store across the street and
opposite the burning building, cracked
and broke. The building in which the
fire originated and in which the shops
mentioned were all located. was totally
destroyed; with its contents.

GREAT DEMAND FOR
DEAATURED ALCOHOL
Interesting Figures Show Re-
suit of the Much Discussed
Recent Legislation.
Special 20 The Tribune.


WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE ex-
tent Of the denatured alcohol business
which has resulted from the new leg
islation is shown by Official figures of
the Treasury department. In Janu-
ary total of 562,502 wine gallons was
denatured throughout the length and
breadth of the United States. In Feb
ruary. the returns for which are not
completed down to the last gallon. but
which arc very close, indicate that 255,-
SO gallons were denatured.
These figures apparently indicate
decided falling off for February. Tho
explanation for that is that the de-
natured alcohol business Of January
was abnormal Dealers and manufac-
turers were in haste to secure stock,
and placed large advance orders with
the three distilleries which were en-
gagged during January IN turning out
the denatured product. The eXpecta-
tIon of treasury experts is that In the
future the growth will be gradual, and
that for some time the figures of Feb
ruary will approximately represent the
consumption Of the country.
Experience up TO this point Indicates
that the completely denaturized alcohol
will answer nearly every purpose of
manufacture and trade. OF the Janu-
ary output. ,5SS gallons were com
pletely denatuTed, while but 5o,9lf
gallons were denaturcd by special pro.
cess The fact that the regular de-
naturant is generally satisfactory rs
also shown by the fact that of 3o9
manufacturers who use denatured alco:
hoI, 296 use the completely denatured
spirits, while only l3 require alcohol in
which a special denaturnnt has been
used.
Permits for denaturing were issued
in January to 6g6 wholesale dealers and
TO 1892 retailers.
