CHANGES RUNORED
AMONG DIPLOMATS
Recall of Ambassador Bryce
and Appointment of Rob
ert Bacon Reported.

Now that the President and his ad-
visers are preparing to make changes
in the Diplomatic Corps, reports have
begun to come In that foreign countries
may change their representative in
Washington.
From Madrid comes the report that
Sir Maurice de Bunsen, British ambas-
sador 10 Madrid. will soon succeed Mr..
Bryce, who is now stationed In Wash
ingtOu
This is generally believed 10 be true.
as Il has been understood for some time
that Mr.. Bryce wanted 20 retire to
private life. He has made great repu-
tatiou during his service here and is
noted for his thorough knOwleige OF
american customs and institutions
The rumOr that Count Won BernstOrff
the German ambassador to Washington.
is to be superseded is not credited. The
report was started because il was said
the German people objected to speeches
ne made I'm this country In which he ap-
peared too subseTvient" to this coun-
try. This story, however, has been de-
MED on excellent authority IN Berlin.
1t IS probable that Congress, when il
1Onvenes, viii be asked to confirm
Robert Bacon as ambassador TO France
TO succeed Mr.. White. other changes
are expected I'm the near future.

UFFRAGISTS PLAN
CAMP PAIGN Of STATE
Maryland Leader Proposes
To Make Fight With
Street Speeches.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 2s.-That the next
move OF the Maryland suHragists In
the fight TO win 1air CO use will be
the addressing Of -ret corner crowds
and the carrying Of the issue into the
smaller towns OF the State by similar
methods. is the opinion Of Mrs Emma
Maddox Funck, president Of the Balt-
more City Suffrage Club.
About the only way can see how
10 bring the question Of equal suffrage
directly before the people IS the ad-
dressing Of street corner crowds" said
Mrs. FuuCk.
Il think that women could do that
all right. just in the same manner as n
is being done every day and night bv
advocates Of the Socialist party
1T is also necessary that something
be done TO interest the inhabitants Of
smaller towns all over the State. In
order that this may be accomplished. I
believe the women will have to travel
around the state in automobiles making
speeches from the machine at favorable
places. The time is soon coming when
all these things will be real facts"

RevolutionistS, Numbering
5000, Surround Head
quarters at Managua.
CITY IS RACKED
WITH ANARCHISM
Provisions and Water Supply Prac-
tically Exhausted, and the
Suffering Is Great.

BLUEFIELDS, Nicaragua, Nov.
26.-AdviceS from the interior to
today say that President Zelaya and
the 2, 500 men under his command,
gaTisoned at Managua, will be
forced to surrender today or to-
morrow.
The investing army, under Gen
eral ZaneSaS, numbers 5000.
Managua IS put Of provisions
and veritable state of anarchism
exists within the city Itself. The
poor are suffering terribly for food
and water.
SHUT UP ELEVEN DAYS
zelaya has been shut I'D in his
capital for eleven days. He is
surrounded by a picked guard and
the residential palace is a fortress
Martial law reigns in the capital.
Shops are closed at sunset and
crowds gathering in the streets are
dispersed by soldiers who clear the
way fixed bayonets.
Hundreds of persons suspected
of sympathizing with the Estrada
movement have been arrested. the
jails are overhowing and many
prisoners are guarded in other
buildings.
Permission Denied.
1t is impossible TO communicate d.
rectly with Managua by telegraph or
mail without permission OF the govern
ment, and lately this permission has
been denied.
Information reaching BluefeIds comes
from refugees No mail IS delivered
until it has been opened and read. If
there is the slightest reference TO the
revolution it IS confscated- Newspapers
are barred. The telegraph is under con-
troll Of the government, and only mes
sages approved by ths government can
be sent, and none delivered unless #
suits the fancy OF the government.
The army at Managua has been cut
OF from its source Of supplies, 1t is de-
clared. and the city is IN want.
Many foreigners are in need OF food.
The result IS that the people in the
capital have turned from ZeIaya and
the feeling against him is intense.
Riotlng in the streets is prevented with
difficulty, and drastic measures have
been resorted to in order to preserve
even a semblance Of peace
Even Zelaya Hungry.
Reports declared the President and
his guard in tho presidential palace ac-
tually lack food and that their sup
plies are Sd short that IT win be impos-
sible for them 10 hoId out more than a
day longer. There IS great rejoicing
created by news from AIanagua. Blue
fields IS a center for the Estrada op-
erations. and t is believed that the
fall of Managua would mean the es-
tablishment of the Estrada government
without further lighting.
The reports received are believed here
10 be authentic. Some Of them come
from the army around the town and
some from the persons who have es-
capped the capital itself.
There IS no attempt at fighting the
whole strength of the army being used
