MUST FIGHT SOME MORE
Estrada Had Hoped for Recognition
by Uncle Sam.

Bluefields, Jan. Hope that the
war would be brought to an end
through the recognition of the pro-
visional government by the United
States has been abandoned. Many be-
lieve that two more battles must be
fought, one in the state of Chontales
and the other near Managua. There
is a popular feeling of gratitude to-
ward the United States because of the
attention given the wounded by ply
sicians from the cruisers and the sup
plies sent for the relief of the half
starved prisoners of war. There IS,
however, some disappointment that
the United States has not formally
recognized-the government of Estrada.
The impression was strong that Sec
retary Knox awaited only a decisive
victory by General Estrada before Civ
Washington government. Such vic
tory was won more than week ago
and still no encouraging word is re-
ceived from Washington.
If another battle is fought it is like
ly that no fewer than IL, 700 men will
be engaged. Preparations for the
campaign in the west continue. The
next ten days will be devoted to OBJ
tanning more rifles, with a view to
equipping 1000 additional soldiers.
This will bring the provisional
strength up to 5000 men A schooner
has been sent to Cape Gracias and will
bring here horses and mules to be
used on the long march toward
Managua-
The insurgent generals have signed a
solemn pact that they will stand as a
unit with Estrada until the last vestige
of Zelayaism is blotted from Nicaragua,
The peace commissioners which Pres
ident Diaz announced he was sending
to negotiate with Estrada have not ar
rived
The American gunboat Eagle has
gone to Bocas Del Toro to make OBJ
servations. The British cruiser Scylla,
which brought a duplicate of the letter
sent by Madriz to Estrada on Decem-
Der %, also has departed from this port
Madriz Sends Aid
Managua, Jan. President Madriz
has sent 50, 900 in gold to aid the work
of the Red Cross among the prisoners
of war at Bluefields.
Generals Toledo and Vasquez have
been ordered to the front. It is said
General Toledo is going to Greytown
where an attack on the government
troops now in possession of the city Is
anticipated. Vasquez, it is understood
is going to Acoyapa, where IL is likely
a battle may be fought before many
days
