ZELAYA SENDING
MEN TO SEE TAFT

According 70 adviCes received TODAY
by Or. Salvador Castrillo. diplomatic
agent I'm Washington for the Nicara-
guam provisional government, Presi-
dent zelaya is temporizing i'm the ten
tative proceedings between the insur-
gents and the Zelayan forces looking
to peace, with view 20 reopening dip
lomatic relations with the state DE
partment here.
Dr. Castrillu received a cabIegram
from Provisional President Estrada to-
day warning him 10 this effect. and jim
timating that Zelaya's emissaries are
on their way TO Washington to get in
touch with Secretary Knox and Presi-
dent Taft
The Provisional forces regard this as
Zelayais last stand. and viewing H. OF
course, in the light Of an assured fail
ure, they are commenSuratcly buoyed TO
che belief that the Zelaya government
has at last reached the end OF its tether
Last Stand Considered Hopeless.
DR.. Castriuo after repeated confer
ences with officials OF the State Depart
ment has no idea whatever that Zelaya's
agents Will be received officially or un-
officially and thinks that this last stand
by Zelaya will be a hopeless project.
President Estrada informs me- said
Or. Castrllo today, that Zelaya, or
rather the Zelaya system, is trying 20
kill time i'm order TO get in another
word TO the State Department in the
hope OF saving their official lives. Of
course they are pursuing lost cause.
in Nicarag qua we have them at our
mercy and can strike at argv- time we see
fit In Washington here they have no
hope of getting the ear of the State
Department for 1 have excellent reasons
Tor believing that the American Govern
ment is done with Zclaya-not done
with him entirely. let me state-but
done with him as far as diplomatic re-
lations so.
Pursuing a Lost Cause.
''Zelaya's attitude in attempting 20
reopen relations with the State De-
partment plainly demonstrates that
he is in sore straits. He gees that we
have him seved up and ready to be
put on the shelf; now he is striving
TO save his diplomatic and official
body and soul by getting in touch
once more with the state Depart
ment. He is pursuing a lost cause.
Il think I am safe in stating that
no better evidence that Zelaya and
bis followers have arrived at their
last resource can be furnished than
by this move OF his. The end IS now
close. and IL win not he many DAYS
before the price Of the deaths e..
