REVOLUTION IN HONDURAS.
It is Being Aided by President O.
Nicaragua

That the revolution in Honduras is being
aided by the President of Nicaragua is the
information received at the State Depart
ment today from one of its officials in Costa
Rica. The President Of Honduras accord
ingly has notified Costa RIGA of his inten-
ton to send troops to the Nicaraguan
frontier to suppress the revolutionary
movement there.
The department further is advised that
Nicaragua, which was party to the treaty
of peace and amity of San Jose, Costa
RIGA, declines to ratify it,
The treaty of San Jose was the outcome
of the Marblehead treaty, which was con-
fined to Guatemala, Salvador and Honduras
Representatives of Nicaragua and Costa
Rica were present but in an entirely I'M
official capacity. The Marblehead treaty
however, provided for negotiations looking
to a further treaty at San JOSE and this
latter treaty Nicaragua now repudiates.
Senior Corea, the Nicaraguan minister,
today said he was without any advices re-
garding this latest phase of the situation
in Central America, although he felt sure
that the president Of Nicaragua was ad-
herring strictly to his declaration of neu-
trality made some time since.
The fact that Nicaragua had refused to
ratify the treaty of San Jose, Senior Corea
said, was due to the feeling by the presi-
dent Of Nicaragua that the treaty of CO.
rinto, initiated by him and signed by the
other Central American republics, covered
the same ground, and therefore the San
Jose treaty was unnecessary.
