BORDERING ON WAR.
DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH
NICARAGUA SEVERED.

Secretary of State Knox Gives Repre-
sentative of That Country His
Walking Papers-It Is Now Up
To Congress To Say Whether or Not
There is to Be War.
Washington, Dec. 1.-Secretary Of
State Knox late today returned the
passports of Felipe Rodrigue, charge
daHaires of the Nicaraguan legation,
with letter scathingly denouncing
the Zelayan administration Of the
government Of Nicaragua The letter
is definitely declared to represent the
views of President Taft and is about
as plain spoken as anything emanat-
ing from the State department. in
years
The extraordinary feature of the
letter is that it seems to evidence an
intention on the part Of the United
States to hold President Zelaya per-
sonally responsible for the alleged
torture and execution of the Ameri-
cans, Cannon and Groce, and exhibits
the unique situation of one govern
ment holdig the chief executive of
another practically as a common
malefactor.
Zelaya is branded as a volator of
solemn international conventions, a
disturber of the national and inter-
national peace, tyrant whose ad-
ministration has been a blot upon the
name of good government.
Secretary Knox virtually announc-
ed the recognition of the Nicaraguan
revolutonists declaring it to be the
conviction of the United States that
the revolution represents the senti-
ments Of a majority of the Nicara-
guam people. and that there is evil
IDENTIFY no responsible government
with which the United States can
deal He therefore announces that
all parties will be held accountable
for their actions as affecting the in
terests Of Americans and the peace
Of Central America. He further in
forms Senior Rodriguez that, while he
lost his diplomatic quality, he may
still serve as an "unofficial' channel
of communication with the govern
ment which he represents.
This brings the crisis as near to
the status of war as it could be
brought by executive action without
definite declaration by both houses
of congress which will convene next
Monday.
Mr.. Knox's letter, in all but sc
many words. makes it plain that the
action represents the wish and at
titude Of all Of the Central American
States with the single exception of
Honduras, which is regarded here as
entirely dominated by Zelaya. Mexi-
co has all along shown it's sympathy
with the United States in this matter.
Just what status the consular rep
resentatives Of the United States in
Nicaragua now enjoy is not definitely
explained tonight 1t is expected,
however, that Vice Consul Caldera

Told by the Marines.

Several marines called at the police
station few nights since and inquired
if the police had heard that one of
their number had been cut up by an
irate husband. The police knew of no
such occurrence. The marines said
that the marine had not shown up at
Camp Very and they were alarmed. The
police located the husband mentioned
easily enough and held him at the sta.
ton while the story was investigated.
The man laughed at the charge that
he had carved the marine. Yesterday
morning the man. s wife was taken to
the station, and then little later in
formation came from the marine camp
that the supposed to be-carved-up man
was in camp again, quite healthy and
unslashed, and had been missing from
the post only because he was out on
a lark.
