Dispatches received here today from
two distinct sources were interpreted
in Official circles as indicating the

nouncing the arrival Of General Lee

pected arrival there Of Bonilla, Sec
ond dispatch to the Gautemalan lega-
ton conveyed the Information
that seventy Honduran revolution
lists had been captured Of Guatemalan
soil and would be detained as prison
ers at the cspital.
The second dispatch was signed by
President Estrada Cabrera. OF Guate-
maula. and set forth that the revolu-
tionists. with their chiefs. were taken
while trying 20 land from small boats.
