Appears to Be Necessary if Zelaya
Is to Be Deposed.
|, Bluefields, Nicaragua, Dec. 49,
There has been a sudden and unpleas-
ant realization here of government
strength and insurgent weakness.
President Zelaya has outwitted Gen
eral Estrada and the latter's chief
hope is in American Intervention.
It turns out that the conference
which was sought by General Vasquez
of the government troops near Rama,
and which the insurgents had inter-
preted as a sign of yielding on the
part of Zelaya's troops, was a blind
intended to secure a delay of the ex-
pected battle until the loyal army OBJ
tanned a decided advantage of posi-
ton. It is also learned that while
Zelaya had kept scattered force be-
fore Rama his real army of 5000 men
was hurrying by forced marches to-
wards Bluefields.
The report that a descent upon this
city from Rama was possible only by
river is now known to be untrue.
Knew the Real Situation.
General Estrada endeavored to
cover his alarm by informing the cor
respondents at the front that all was
tranquil, with the prospect that Gen.
eral VasqueZ and Major Eva would
surrender. Ten minutes after he had
talked with the reporters the insur-
aide, Adolfo Diaz, on the telephone
and was telling him what was be:
lieved to be the true situation. To
the aide General Estrada declared that
the Americans should send more ma
rines ashore, as Vasquez had appar-
emily outfanked him. Estrada also
expressed the opinion that request
should be made of the United States
government for protection to the $50
Americans in Bluefelds.
Diaz rushed to United States Con-
sui Moffat with the new intelligence
and the consul assured him that Com
mander Shipleys marines from the
United States cruiser Des Moines,
with their six rapid fire guns, would
be able to control the situation here
in the event that the loyal army
should suddenly surprise the city.
Will Mean Real Fighting.
If President Taft is determined that
Zelaya shall be deposed it is believed
here that the United States forces will
find active participation in the strug-
gle necessary.
The Americans here have been as.
sured that the marines from the Des
Moines are sufficient to cope with any
situation, even with the three thou
sand we'll armed government soldiers,
but the PROFESSIONALS, who are unfamil-
lar with military discipline, wish more
