long, embroidered stole ends which
drop from the front lower edge OF the
Of the knees. This cuirass, by the way,
is a little shorter than the generally
accepted model 1t is little more than
a deep girdle which extends well over
the curves CT the hips.
The skirt has an underskirt and a
pointed overskirt, both of which fall
from the cuirass in sole folds. En-
broidery appears at the waist line and
over the shoulders.

News brought here from Bluefields,

hope of recovering the bodies OF LIE
Roy Cannon and Leonard Groce has
been given up.
II is now known positively that the
bodies were burned. Men arriving
from Nicaragua report that Zelaya
did not want 1t known that the two
Americans had been executed. The
news, however, spread to Bluenelds,
where 1t caused an uncomfortable
burst of indignation.
Every precaution was taken to pre-
vent information from getting abroad,
but the news was spread when the
Zelaya troops came over to the revo'
lutionists. 1t is said that no crime
has caused such widespread horror in
Central America in many years.
Consul Luis Sequeira of the Estrada
government said today that Zelaya
was only following his usual custom
in ordering the burning of the bodies
of the Americans.
Fifty OF the leading women Of Man
aqua appealed to Zelaya to give the
accused a decent burial after they
had pleaded in vain for the lives OF
the men.
According to DR.. Sequeira, the die
tator not only refused to do this, but
would not allow the gathering up of
the ashes. He ordered them swept up
in the street and swept from the plaza
to Lake Managua, where they were
thrown in.
There was big celebration held
in Bluefields when news was received
that the United States had partially
recognized the revolutionist govern
ment. Troops marched the streets,
and people shouted viva Estrada"
American Consul Moffatt was seren-
AIDED by band.
The Greytown blockade is still eff
fective, and Zelaya's men are in bad
condition. Gen. Chamorro is very con-
fdent of success. and 1t is thought
that it is his plan to starve out the
government troops.

In business conditions in st. Paul and
Minneapolis. In Minneapolis all of
the -four mills, with the exception of
one OF the smaller ones, were stopped
and the cessation of this industry
alone threw about 5000 men out of

II is stated that the mill men will
lose $4,000 a week in wages while
the mills are closed and that the loss
of business to the milling concerns
will amount to 100000 a day.
At the head of the lakes. where the
most important industries are directly
dependent upon traffic conditions, a
continuation for few more days OF
the present congestion will force TO-
600 men out of employment.
IL the strike continues the whole

The terrific gale that struck the

At least six boats were. driven

The Steinbrenner was sunk and her
