Paid High Price.

Washington, Nov. 19-The execution
by order of President zelaya, of Mic
aragua, of two Americans, Leonard
Grace and Leroy Cannon, condemned as
insurrectionists, with resulting interna-
tional complications, recalls the thrill
ing events of the ten-year war in Cuba,
when the Spanish government executed
summarily General Ryan and a num-
Der of other Americans who were cap
tured and charged with being filibus-
terers. At that time American feeling
was wrought to high pitch Of excite
ment and a number of American ves-
sells were ordered to Cuban waters and
an immediate outbreak of war between
the United States and Spain was avert
ed only thru the prompt apology by
Spain for the action of the Cuban cap
tain general and the payment of in
demnity to the families Of the victims.
