MANAGUA. Dec. 16.--Jose Zantos
zelaya has resigned from the presi-
dency of Nicaragua He placed his
resignation in the hands of congress
this morning.
Apparently there was no other course
to take, The guns of the revo1utionists
threatened The warshins of the
United States lay in Nscaraguan ports.
Managua has been seething for days.
Zelaya surrounded himself with an
armed guard while the populace
marched through the streets. crying
for the end of the old and proclaiming
the new regime.
Who will take. up the reins no one
knows nor cares. II is sufficient that
zelaya as dictator will be known no
more.
Dr. Jose Madriz. judge of the Central
American court of justice at Cartago,
who has been close to Zelaya and is
now his choice for president is on his
way here. He will arrive on Saturday.
Madriz has his following, strong and
ihfueptiaI. even among the revolu-
tionists, but General Estrada, under
whose command the great body of
lighting insurgents now face Vasquez' S
troops at Rama, will have none of him.
Estradas word will bear weight in
the choice of president
Zelaya has known, too, that Madriz
| is not acceptable TO the United States.
| Accompanying his resignation Zelaya
sent the following message to con-
gress:
The painful circumstances in
(which the country is plunged call
! for acts of abnegation and patriot
| ism on the part of the good .citi-
| zens, who are the witnesses of the
oppression of the republic by the
| heavy hand of fate. The country is
! staggering under a shameless revo-
luton that threatens the nations
! sovereignty, and a foreign nation
unjustly interyeneS in our, crisis,
publicly providing the rebels with
arms, which has only resulted in
| their being defeated everywhere
! through the heroiSm of our troops
To avoid further bloOdShed, and
for the reason that the revolution
lists have declared that they would
| put down their arms when | sur
rendered the executive power, l
hereby place in the hands of the
national assembly the abandonment
| of the remainder of my term OF Of
flee. which is to be filled by a sub
stitute of their choosing, with the
| hope that this will result in good to
| Nicaragua. the re-establishment of
peace and particularly the Suspen-
sion of the hostility of the United
States to which | do not wish to
give pretext for Intervention.
A commission of five deputies was
appointed to draft a bill looking to the
acceptance of Zelaya's resignation.
News of the presidents action spread
| throughout the city, and soon great
crowds moved through the, streets
! shouting for the United States Estrada
and the revolution.
