Dover. Del. March 29.-The report
that Horace n. Marvin, Jr., had been
found in woods near the home of his
father at kits Hammock was found
upon investigation to be incorrect
The report probably gained circula-
ton from the fact that the Logan
school house near the Marvin home was
broken ineo last night and practically
turned inside cut by unknown persons.
This is the school at which Miss Lucy

denly held up Tuesday night by two
men whom she came upon suddenly, is
the teacher. Pinned to the blackboard
was Il note which bore a skull and cross
bones and the words :"Beware, you

the two men they were talking about
the kidnapping of the Marvin child.
They drew revolvers and threatened to
kin the woman if she told to any per
son the conversation which she had
overheard.

fess to believe that the two strangers
know something about the missing

Washington, March 29.-Actiye teIe-
hraph correspondence has been in pro
Sress between the Washington officials
and the diplomatic representatives, in
central America and Mexico for the
rast 4S hours relative to the Central
American imbroglio. but. owing to the
TACT That decisive results have not vet
been reached and the information nee
eSsary to make q clear statement Of
the situation remains to be supplied.
no details of the negotiations have been
given out for publication.
Captain Fullam of the gunboat Mari
eta reported by cable from Puerto
Cortez that everything was quiet on
the north coast of Honduras and that
he was sending long report by mail
of what had been done to protect
American interests and incidentally to
mitigate the seventies of warfare. The
report that Costa Rica had recognized
the provisional government of Hondu-
raS lacked official confirmation up to
the close Of the day and was accepted
with reserve.
At least 60 days will be required for
the election of a President by the PRO-
visional government in Honduras and
the establishment of the new admins
tration on q basis commanding recog-
milton by world powers.
This delay will necessarily make the
conditions in Central America even
