be large enough to permit the committee to

this can be done in some measure. as sub

AMERICA MAY INTERVENE
Hints That War in Nicaragua
Must Speedily Cease.
SITUATION is INTOLERABLE
Other Governments May Join in
Enforcing Peace-W. P. Pitt
man Still Held.

Washington. July 3.-Indications are
not wanting of change in policy of this
government toward the Nicaraguan
trouble although in just what direction
the State Department will turn it is i'm
possible TO say. The situation in the
unfortunate republic begins to approx
mate that in Cuba preceding the war
with Spain. when President Mckinley
described il as q nuisance at our doors.
4 line seems TO be drawn north and
south in Nicaragua which neither side
-Ma6riz or Estrada-can cross. Fighting
is going on continuously, the country is
being ruined financially, and the consid-
cradle foreign business interests are
seriously affected. Moreover, neighbor-
ing states in Central America view with
disouietude the probability of the strife
in Nicaragua extending over the borders
into their own states
II is not improhah BILE that there will be
concerted movement on the part of
other interested governments to force
by moral suasion, or. if necessary, by an
exhibition Of physical strength, the two
factions in Nicaragua to stop fighting
and submit their respective causes to
the adjudication Of disinterested friends,

Salamanca, whom Estrada had offered,
was made without consultation with DR..
Madriz, according 10 a dispatch re
ceived ar the State Department to-day
from Consul Gfoffatt at Bluefelds The
fact that DR. Nadriz was not consulted
in this matter has given rise TO a sug-
gestion that there may be a reconsider
alton Of this proposed exchange.

ROOSEVELT MAY BE TRUSTEE
Talk of His Succeeding Cleveland in
Equitable Life Society.

Denver, July 3-Intnnation that Theodore
Roosevelt would be asked 10 serve as trus-
tee Of the Equitable Life Assurance Society
OF New York, to succeed the late Grover
Cleveland. was given here yesterday by D
II Moffatt a Colorado. banker. who is one
OF the directors OF the insurance concern.
While I have no official information. -
said Mr.. Moffatt. II have an idea that
Mr.. Roosevelt will be asked to accept the
position formerly held by Mr.. Cleveland
The trustees represent the stockholders
and their selection does not come before
the board of directors although doubtless
they will have some little influence IN the
matter. J. p Morgan IS the largest stock
holder, and he will have the naming OF the
men"
The terms OF two trustees will expire at
an early date and u is expected that an
nouncernent Of Mr.. Cleveiand's successor
VIII be made at the time that successors
to these trustees are chosen.
