NICARAGUA AND
 SALVADOR AT WAR
CONTINUED FROM PAGE l.,

 Zelaya to head the revolutionary move ment in Salvador. It is believed Alfara and Rivas are working together. In case Guatemala is drawn into the conflict it is believed General Toledo will move on Cabrera's capital by land, crossing Hon. duras and thus gaining the Guaemalan border.
 The comparative strength of the Amer ican republics is indicated by the follow ing populations: Guatemala, 1,SO0,Oo0; Salvador, 100000; Honduras, 100000; Mic sragua, 100000; Costa Rica, 300,0O0
 The population is largely Indian. Two thirds of the population of Guatemala is declared to be full blooded.
 Rule, of course Is in the hands of Span ish descendants of light color. Salvador, the smallest of the states, is the most densely populated.
 Costa Rica, the smallest in population, is the best governed of the states.
 Salvador Is financially in good shape Nicaragua is next. Honduras has the distinction of owing s1030o0,000 abroad, three-fourths of this being interest, the country having failed for thirty-five years to meet it's obligations. Guatemala and Costa Rica defaulted on their foreign in- terest for respectively two and six years. The standing army of Salvador in time of peace Is between two and three thou sand, but a much larger number has been kept on a war footing since the outbreak of hostilities. It is said that the republic can pit 5000 men in the field.
 Nicaragua We'll Equipped.
 Nicaragua has much better equipped army, and has a navy of six gunboats, which will put the Salvadorean and Qua temlan ports at her mercy, neither of the latter countries having gunboats.
 A report that Ambassador Thompson had been directed by the state department at Washington to proceed to Salvador to investigate Central American conditions was denied by MT. Thompson tonight He said to a representative of the Associated Press that he had received no such in structions and did not expect to.
 Washington, June 11.-At the Mexican embassy and the legations of Nicaragua and Guatemala surprise was expressed at the news of the renewal of hostiities in Central America. No official advices on the subjec had reached them up to a late hour.

A POETS FALL.


 "Ye gods, what shall the subject be?" A poet asked. So vexed was he That all the cheerful topics known Lacked inspiration to atone For half the woe that gripped his heart And kept him from an early start. He simply couldn't warble like A joyous and a care-free tyke, Nor did he have the energy To sing of fate and destiny No theme or any common sense Would come, his gloom was so intense. And so, at last, in great despair He sat him down and tore his hair And wrote a rhyme devoid of hope That advertised somebody's soap. It is reported that Howard Gould will experience the novelty of remaining at home this summer. A great many people will do the same thing without consid- ering it a novelty.

WAR CRY ACCURACY.

EDITOR STAR. My Dear Sir:-Our
notice has been called to your editorial
respecting the error made in a recent
War Cry about that cave said to be
three miles underground.
We have written headquarters about
it, and that their informant is alto
gether unreliable, and trust we shall
not see any further errors of the kind.
1t is too bad to have such absurdities
printed, but you know that at such a
distance from the islands, unreliable
information may be easily received,
and used in good faith. am sure
they only need to be warned to be
more careful,
Thanking you most kindly for your
interest in our War Cry and work, and
glad too of your editorial and criti-
cism.
l am yours faithfully,
S. BRADLEY,
STAFF Captain.
