sion appointed by Acting President Es-
trada, and also the British, Spanish
and italian consuls, while bound for
Granada. where the commission ex-
poets to meet General Estrada, was
fired on by mistake by provisional
sentries.
1t now turns out that several SOL
diers were killed by the populace
which fired the volleys at the fleeing
president when he was being driven to
the lake front to board a steamer for
Corinto. Madriz himself was unin-
iured but was prevented from boarding
the steamer. Aided by Aurelio Estrada,
another brother of General Juan Es-
trada. he boarded the train which was
waiting to take the peace commits
sion to Granada, and started on his
way to Corinto.
The keeper of the Jail here has con-
fessed he intended to touch button
and explode the mines when the rev.
olutionists entered the city, or upon
the downfall of Madriz. The plot was
discovered and Madpiz was forced to
remove him,

attention of Sheriff Harris and his
deputuies here.
George Dunlap, wealthy farmer,
reported yesterday that for two months
his big colonial farm house has been

further investigation is being made.
