From Wednesdays Daily:
Albert Smith, the negro who was
convicted at the last term of the cir.
cult court of numbering Rev. Isaac
Draft, another of his color at Martin
last April, yesterday paid the penalty
of his crime in the Jail yard in this
city.
All during the morning several col
ored ministers were with the con
demned man, singing and praying,
and continued their services up TO the
time set for his execution.
At about II o'clock Sheriff Gallo
way announced that all was ready
and told Smith to dress and prepare
to mount the scaffold.
After a short farewell prayer he was
led from the Jail to the scaffOld. which
had been prepared on the north side
of the building. He walked bravely
up the steps, and when he was told
that he now had the privilege of say
ing what he chose 10 the large crowd
present he showed no signs II ner-
vousness, but made what appeared TO
be a Straightforward statement. deny
ing most emphatically that he had
killed Draft, who had always been his
friend. He admOnished those within
his hearing TO prepare for the here
after, and said that he had made his
peace with his Maker, and was ready
to die, although he was the victim OF
circumstances and an innocent man.
After he concluded, the black cap was
adjusted, and almost before those
looking on had an opportunity 20 see
him in this position the trap was
sprung. exactly at 1925 o'clock His
body shot downward fully six feet. the
drop instantly breaking his neck.
After about ten minutes Doctors
Newsom and Hood pronounced him
dead, and the body was taken charge

dertakers, for burial. AS nothing had
been heard from any of Smiths rela-
tives he was buried ty the county.
1t is thought that fully twenty-five
hundred people witnessed the execu-
ton, many having been invited by the
sheriff to occupy the space within the
.nil yard.
There was no hitch in the entire
proceedings, everything going OF just

Creel Calls on President.

the United States by President Diaz to

The offer had previously been declined
by Secretary Knox. Mr.. CreePs call upon
the President therefore was almost en-

No CabIegram Fom ZeIaya
Reached State Department

Dispatches received by the state De
partment from Nicaragua today are con-
firmatOry of reports, published this morn
ing, to the effect that Zelaya had ten
dered to the Nicaraguan congress his
resignation as President.
No mention, however. was made in the
dispatches Of Madriz as his successor.
Madriz is expected to arrive in Managua
tomorrow. 1t is likely that there will be
no choice of president for some days
at least.
The published statement from Zelaya,
the retiring President of Nicaragua, to
the effect that December 4, in tele-
gram to Secretary Knox, he suggested
that an American commission be appoint
ed to visit Nicaragua, and stating that
If the findings of that commission should
show his administration to be detrimental
to Central America he would resign, Is
officially denied. 1t was announced at Inc

telegram ever was received from Presi-
dent Zelaya

Stable Government First.

AS indicated in Secretary knox's letter
to Mr.. Rodriguez, who was Nicaraguan
charge d'affaires, this government has
been principally concerned in the estab-
lishment of responsible government in
Nicaragua capable of meeting its interna-
tional obligations.
The execution of Cannon and Groce is
declared to be matter entirely sep
arated from other questions involved, and
government has been installed. the United
States will make a demand upon the new
government for reparation for the death
Of those two men. That demand will un-

doubtedly involve the arrest and punish
ment of Zelaya for his Offenses.
Whether or not the United States win
take any steps to prevent Zeiaya from
leaving the country is somewhat prob
Iematical. IN the event that the
revolutionists party does not secure the
narson Of the ex-president and bring him
to Justice before he has opportunity to
escape. the United States will almost
certainly see to IL that his subsequent
return to Nicaragua would involve
great personal risk to himself.
The state Department officials will
await with absorbing interest news of
events i'm Nicaragua during the next few
DAYS. That Estrada and his army Will
willingly submit to the installation or
Wadriz as president is not conceivable

Mexico's Attitude Strange.

The presence of the Mexican gunboat
Gen. Guerrero at Corinto has aroused in
official circles here an interest as to her
exact mission in Nicaraguan waters. This
interest is stimulated by the fact that
Mexicans and Mexican interests are not
thought to be imperiled by events in that
country.
The question has arisen as to whether
her real mission is not to furnish a way
for the retiring president to leave the
country. No one in an official position
here is willing to say that such an act
would be of itself an unfriendly one to
the United States. but the opinion seems
to be general that it would not be re-
garded as a friendly act.
Developments in that direction are
awaited with interest here
The friendly relations existing between
Mexico and Nicaragua are shown by the
fact that archives and furniture of the
turned over to BaFbino Davalos, charge
d affaires of the Mexican embassy.
The transfer was made by Senior
Rodriguez. charge d'affaires of the
Nicaraguan legation. who left here a few
days ago on visit to Mexico. following
the receipt of his passports from Secre-
tary Knox.
Word comes from Panama that the
German government is taking an interest
in the settlement Of political affairs in
Nicaragua.
1t is reported that German residents
of Managua are afraid that they may
lose their property in the event of a con-
fiict between the Nicarasuan forces and
the American marines, and that the Ger
man ambassador here has been instructed
to sound the United States authorities
as to direct responsibility for resulting
damages.
German capital controls the principal
commercial houses in Managua Leon and
