ESTRADA SAYS PEACE
CAN ONLY BE ASSURED
BY EXCLUDING ZELAYA

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-"Peace in
this country can only be assured by the
complete exclusion of Zelaya and his
followers. We will continue to fight
until this is secured. In the name Of
liberty and OF justice on our side, we
ask you to recognize my government. v
This message from Gen. Estrada, at
the head of the revolutionary army in
Nicaragua, has been received by the
secretary of state. The telegram Is
dated Blueflelds and was sent by wire
less from Colon.
In the same telegram Estrada says
that no chief executive selected by
Zelaya or by the congress he controls
will be accepted by the majority of the
Nicaraguan people allied to the revo-
lutionlst cause.
This telegram contains the fia'st
authoritative statement that the reNo-
lutionary party will not accept as pres
ident anyone who has any relation with
Zelaya. The selection of either Madriz
or lrias, therefore, means continu-
ance of the revolution.
Late kilograms from Nicaragua say
the assembly has been instructed by
Zelaya to elect Madriz as president,
and Irias to the chief command of the
army
This everywhere in Nicaragua is re-
garded as a move to continue Zelayd
as the dominant figure. A telegram
from Corinto expresses the opinion that
Irias is to be given the presidency.

ELECTION OF MADRIZ
WILL NOT CHANGE THE
STATUS OF SITUATION

WASHINGTON, Dee 20-Secretary
of State Knox let it be known today
that the attitude of this government
toward Nicaragua would not be
changed by the election of Madriz to
the presidency as the successor of Ze-
laya, resigned.
Madriz will have to show that he is
capable of directing a responsible gov
ernment which is prepared to make
reparation for the wrongs which it is
claimed have been done to American
citizens in the little Central American
republic.
This country still maintains that un-
til a responsible government is set up
and is in entire control of the situa-
tion so that definite negotiations can
be held, diplomatic relations cannot be
resumed,
I'VE are not trying to coerce Nicar-
aqua, said a high state department Of
fetal this afternoon after call at the
White House. I'VE want her to settle
her own affairs and we are not dicta-
ting what shall be done in Nicaragua,

HeraId'S |HappyIa11d' Edition Praised

er" number, it would have been highly
appropriate. The edition is one of the
most useful and entertaining ever pub
lished locally. The Herald certainly
was inspired in issuing this unusual
but very effective departure from the
usual annual. Let readers of this clean
and progressive newspaper have more
specials of the same high character.
William C. Owen
Let me congratulate you with more
than Christmas heartiness on the really
wonderful issue of the Sunday maga-
zine you put out December 10. The
article, "Where Mere Man Is Failure" "
certainly does not apply in this in
stance.
Nathan Newly
The special edition was fine. 1t shows
that The Herald is prospering, and we
are much delighted over it. The edi-
torial page especially is splendid. My
congratulations!
j. o. Faris
The Herald outdid itself. It was a
splendid edition. one that any paper
could be proud of, and the edition has
been so popular here that 1 have, barely
had a chance to see it.
w. Clarence Draper
1t is an elegant edition. 1 have read
the magazine section right through to
the thirty-fourth page, and intend to
go straight through the whole maga-
zine. 1t is a splendid paper issued in
splendid style, and is the best yet.
1 intend to send some back home, for
1 know it will interest the easterners
to see the enterprising western spirit.

CITIZENS SEND IN
CONGRATULATIONS
PRAISE FOR SUNDAY EDITION
Is GENERAL
Magazine Section Is Declared to Be
Winner of Prize for Best Ever
Issued by Any Paper on
This Coast

Congratulations, genuine expressions
of appreciation for Sundays edition of
The Herald poured into the office yes
terday. Bankers. doctors, lawyers,
public officials, and, in fact men and
women in all walks of life, have fe-
licitated The Herald upon its achieve
ment.
Probably the most commented upon
part of the entire paper was the mag
azine section, which has been declared
the prize of all magazines ever issued
on the Pacific coast. geographically,
pictorlally and editorially he magazine
was hailed as a distinct achievement.
1t was replete with news and informa-
tion of a thousand different kinds. Its
worth has been genuinely felt, and 1t
viii be long remembered.
Following are some of the express
sions of approval from prominent cit
liens:
Mayor Alexander
Sundays Herald was typical of the
enterprise that has made the paper
one of the strongest influences for good

RICHARD PARR RECEIVES
POISON DEATH WARMING
Man Who Unearthed Sugar Frauds Is
Placed on His Guard by Anony-
nous Letters

NEW YORK. Dec. 20-Threats OF
death by poison and violence against
Richard Parr, the special treasury
agent who unearthed the sugar frauds
on the williamsburg docks of the
American Sugar Refining company,
are contained in a letter given out to-
night and received, he says, on Decem-
her IL. The letter follows:
"The editor of the sun died suddenly
Some prominent men in the customs
service died suddenly You have been
taken suddenly i'll. Beware of poison
SUGAR"
Mr. Parr was i'm fact taken suddenly
in during the recnt trial of six former
employees of the sugar company day
or two before the letter was written.
His illness was supposed to be an ar
lection of the nerves. other letters
received by him, said tonight. con
taincd threats of death and injury by
violence.
lie had been told that he would be
pushed off the subway platform in
front Of moving train and that he
would be shot.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-21

This statement, however, is generally
doubted.
A Managua telegram states that
Zelaya is making active military prep
arations, and by putting in office in all
the principal cities, including Managua,
Leon and Granada, known supporters
of Irias, it was believed, would hold
the real power as commander-in-ch chief
of the government military forces.
An official dispatch from Managua
shows that considerable hostility is
being displayed against the American
consulate there by Zelaya's followers.
Petty annoyances, such as abusive Ian
guage and daily threats, are of constant
occurrence, but no actual violence up
to this time has been attempted.
The latest telegram from Managua,
dated last night, states that 800 troops
reached there the night before from
Leon, the home of Madriz, and were at
the station when Madriz arrived.
His train was earlier than was eX-
pected, but he was escorted to his hotel
by the troops from Leon and other fol-
lowers with drawn pistols, the police
being armed with rifles.
Up to this time the department has
no information tending to show that a
new president of Nicaragua has been
elected or even that a date has been
decided upon for the election The
understanding last week was that the
election would be held last Saturday,
December Is, but tNere is reason to
believe it was not so held.
A dispatch from Managua says the
Nicaraguan. David r. Arellano. who
was imprisoned there for displaying the
American flag on the receipt of the
news last November of the election
of President Taft, has been released,
but whether zelaya ordered the release
is not known.

MADRIZ ELECTED
TO PRESIDENCY
fCop,lnuea FROM Pnrr one,

revolutionists, who are ready to do
battle with the government forces at
Rama, is strongly opposed to the new
president for it is well understood
that Estrada himself has ambitions TO
fill the presidential chair.
The hope is cherished, however, that
DR.. Madriz. in his new executive ca
pacity, will be able to smooth out
many of the rough places and bring
about such an amicable condition
among the people themselves that he
will not be compelled to withdraw
from office.
What Zelaya and his supporters most
feared was a rising in the depart
ments around Managua, for in the last
two weeks the widespread denuncia-
tions of the president and his admin
istration We're verging on revolution.
The morning sitting of congress was
given over to dissensions and angry
exchanges between the deputies.
A motion that congress sit in perma-
nent session was vigorously opposed
and was characterized by recrimina
tions on all sides. The motion event.
ually was defeated.

The wholesale liquor establishment OF

escaped.
Gresham was alone in the store
when the robbery occurred. The ROD
bers adjusted the masks on their faces
when they entered, covering Gresham
with their revolVers as he turned from
the cash register, near which he was
standing. Both spoke quietly, ordering
him to make no resistance, and both
apparently were experienced holdup
men. The taller of the two seized the
wine merchant by the arm and backed
him roughly through the door OF the
ante-room. nearby, while the other
quickly jimmied open the drawer of the
register. At a signal from the latter,
the man WHO was facing Gresham
backed through the door, saying as he
did so: "If you show your face IN thal
doorway before we get out l Will blow
your head Off"
He turned and ran as he neared lire
front of the store, joining his comrade.
Gresham ran out q side entrance 10

had been found.

An order requiring the guards IN the

to smoke has just been issued by
Warden McClaughrey. The guards are

CHICAGO FACES FAMINE
IN COAL, DEALERS SAY

CHICAGO, Dec. 2O-Chicago is fac
ing a coal famine, according to deal
ers Of the city. The extreme cold
weather ana the inability of the rail-
roads to deliver a fun supply will
empty the yards within two weeks.
The failure of the railroads to bring
in all the coal needed is attributed by
some dealers to the great rush of holl-
day business which has tied up traf-
fic, while by others it is said the short
age is due to confiscation by railroads
to provide fuel for locomotives.
