ARMY OF zfLAYA
REDUCED TO PANIC
General Estrada Holds Position
on Coast of Nicaragua
After Fierce Battle

COLON. Panama, Nov ia wire
less message from Bluefields, the
headquarters of the provisional govern
ment established by General Estrada,
leader of the Nicaraguan rebellion,
gives the rebel version of the recent
lighting near the Costa Rican border.
The message says:
Fierce fighting took place on the
10th and 11th at point near Colorado
bay and the San Juan river. General
Toledo with several hundred govern
ment troops, who had invaded Costa
Rican territory In order to attack the
Nicaraguan rebels who were intrenched
along the San Juan river (Which forms
the boundary between the two repub-
lics), was forced by Costa Rica to re-
cross into Nicaragua.
Toledo forthwith attacked the rebel
troops under General Chamorro on the
Nicaraguan side of the river. The gov
ernment army consisted of infantry
and artillery and repeatedly assaulted
the positions of the rebels.
although outnumbered General Cha
MORO responded with great effect.
After SO hours of desperate fighting
President Zelaya's troops became panic
sticken. Both sides lost heavily in
killed and wounded.
THE promptness with which the
government of Costa Rica expelled the
Nicaraguans from Costa Rican terri
tory shows that Zelaya will receive no
aid from the republic to the south.
Lack of arms has prevented the
rebels from advancing. Arms are eX-
pected daily. The government forces
have been expected at Greytown the
10th and hoped to proceed thence to
BIuefelds This defeat checks the adj
vance for some time and indicates
Chamorro's ability to hold the San
Juan valley.
General Estrada still holds all the
territory east of the eighty fifth paral-
lei (that is the eastern half of Mica
ragua) except few miles on the San
Juan river. Business is being carried
on without interruption at Bluefields,
Cape Gracias (the northeastern ex-
tremity of Nicaragua, and at San Juan
del Morte (Greytown).
THE provisional government is be-
ing maintained in an orderly manner
and it is expected that the, United
States will soon recognize the govern
ment of Estrada as an independent re-

Government Ships Burned

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.--Before
leaving Greytown Thursday after their
defeat the Nicaraguan revolutionists
dynamited the two government vessels.
the Managua and the Norma, ships of
500 tons burden each, and burned vari-
Gus places in the city. This informa-
ton is contained in a dispatch received
at the Nicaraguan legation here today
from President Zelaya. The recapture
of Greytown, the officials say, is of
great Importance to the government,
as heretofore all the ports of the At
lantic coast have been held by the revo-
lutionists. The victory over the latter
presages, in their opinion, an early col
lapse of the rebellion.
