PROTEST FOR OPIUM.
Britain Objects TO Too Speedy

Peking, Nov. Sir J. n Jordan. the
British Minister. on behalf Of his gov
eminent. has raised objections to the
manner in which China is suppressing
the opium trafic. The objection is the
result of the success of the anti-opium
movement in China. which is causing a
more rapid decline in the importations OF
opium from India than was provided in
the British Chinese agreement cf 1901.
which contemplated a gradual reduction
Of the importation. Consequently China
is now confronted with the prospect OF
paying for Indian opium which she does
not use.

The above dispatch. which the corre-
spondent was unable to get through yester-
day, refers doubtless to the battle OF Thurs
day, concerning which conflicting reports
reached New orleans and Washington.
SympathIzers at New Orleans with the
Nicaraguan rebels received advices saying
that General Estrada was gaining ground
and had taken Paso las Laias. At the
same time the Nicaraguan Charge d'Affaires
at Washington received word from Presi-
dent Zelaya 10 the effect that the govern
nent troops had met and routed the enemy.
General Chamorro. mentioned in the Mana
qua dispatch as having been killed. should
NOT be confused with General Emiliano
ChamOrrO, who is one of the rebel leaders.
Paso las Laias is near Chile about sixty
miles west of BlUcfields. and IL, as reported.
the government troops have been successful
az that point and are pursuing the revolu-
tioEists toward Rama IL means that Presi-
dent Zelaya has not only regained a foot
hold in the interior. but Is pushing on 10
Rama. which had fallen into the hands of
the rebels. and toward Bluefelds. the head
quarters Of revolutionary activity.
