DETERMINED FORCE

The United States has agreed with
Mexico that. if the Mexican gunboat
now az Corinto takes Zelaya, deposed
President Of Nicaragua. aboard. car
ries him to Mexico. and then deports
him to Europe. this country will be
satisfied
Astounding as this statement sounds
IN view Of the hostile talk this Govern
ment has INDUCED in toward Zelaya
because Of his execution Of the two
Americans, Groce and Cannon. il is
made on the authority of Paul Hud-
son. general manager Of the Mexico
Herald. who called at the White House
today before leaving washington for
New York
The report is also confirmed by men
high in the Diplomatic Corps.
Due to Creel
The agreement is the fruit OF tho
coming here Of Senior Enrique Creel as
the special representative Of Mexico 10
make all possible arrangements for TAX
ing care OF Zelaya. Mexico has enter
cd into the agreement to save Zelaya's
life on the provision that nc viii accept
the asylum offered him on the Mexican
gunboat. and that this Government will
allow the plan to be carried out.
II is said that the state Department
has let Mexico know that II Will be
satisfied with the expatriation Of Zelaya
and his disappearance from the Ameri-
can continents II there Is established
in Nicaragua a stable government, alb
solutely free from the domination Of
Zeiaya OF Zelayss friends.
This indicates that this Government IS
confident OF the final triumph or the
provisional government under Estrada.
Diplomats en- Washington were as
tonished 20 hear Of this agreement, and
all surprised 10 learn that Creel had
secured such a concession from Secre-
tsry Knox.
The probability that the army Of Cen
eral Estrada, victorious i'm eastern Nc

Follows Perkins Bill.

Although the details or the plan have
not been put on paper, they will follow
closely rhe ideas incorporated in the
Perkins dill instead Of the scheme Of
the Gillette bill.
The measure introduced by Senator
Perkins provides for the appropriation
OF enough money 10 pay for the retire
ment on annurtIes OF the clerks eligible
for retirement at the time or the enact
ment Of the proposed law. The Gillette
bill compels the employees Of the Gov

that sum.
