CORDOBA, Mexico, Dec. 2S.-Jose
Santos Zelaya denied today that he
was a prisoner in the hands of the
Mexican officials in any sense of the
word.
He was asked whether it was fact,
as reported in dispatch from Mana
qua, that in giving him a refuge in this
country the Mexican government ac-
cepted responsibility for his person and
in so doing looked on him as a prisoner.
He stated emphatically such was not
the case and that he was free to go
where he chose.
Zelaya declared he favored friendly
Intervention on the part of the Mexican
and United States governments to the
end that a consolidation of all the
Central American republics might be
brought about.
He said he believed Secretary Knox
was now realizing the injustice of his
attitude toward him and declared he
never understood why the secretary
should have molested him.
He might go to Belgium to live, he
said. In any event he would not re-
turn to Nicaragua until peace was re-
stored. 1t was his opinion the war
would end within two months, but he
would not venture an opinion as to
which side would be successful.
