ENJOYS Call Dispatches Inven
tions to Hurt Their Mission.

Dr.. Modesto Barrios and DR.. Sebastian
Salinas, the commissioners from the Madriz
government in Nicaragua, who arrived
here on Monday to sound the American
government on its ideas regarding the
terms on which peace may be restored in
the republic, said yesterday that they be-
Iieved the days news from Nicaragua
was invented to cause the failure of
their mission to Washington.
One cable message had it that San Juan
del Sur. a Madriz stronghold, was menaced
by insurrectionists and another dispatch
told of the growing bitterness of the
NicaTaguan press and public toward the
United States. The ENJOYS discounted both
these reports.
The commissioners received a cable dis
patch from home as sort of offset TO the
reports of two Estrada victories. This
message said that five hundred revolution
lists attacked Comalapa, but were defeated
by the Madriz forces.
DR.. Salinas yesterday estimated at So
100000 the damage that has been done TO
property by the insurrection. He added:
However, the government will be redy
at the proper time 70 pay the Emery claim
acknowledged by the Nicaraguan govern
r1ent and whose payment, amounting to
$500 Geo was arranged through the Ameri-
can government We also will recognize
and pay all fair claims of foreigners and
natives for damages suffered in the present

ure on the Montrose.

London. July $.-No word has been re-
oeived tonight from the steamer Montrose
on which are two passengers. booked as
the Rev. John Robinson and John ROBIN
son, jr., who the Scotland Yard officials
believe may be the missing DR.. HawIey H.
Crippen and Ethel Leneve. The wireless
telegraph system on the Montrose has a
working radius of only $50 miles.
The only development in the case is
that Superintendent Froest OF Scotland
Yard has placed all the known facts in the
affair in the hands of the Public Prose
cutor to enable him TO prepare a case in
the event Of Crippen's arrest
Scotland Yard says that Dr. Crippen has
not been arrested and Miss Leneve has not
confessed, according to any advices re-
ceived by officials here.
No word has been received from the
steamer Montrose, on board which are the
two suspected passengers
superintendent Froest said to-day that
the messages which Captain Kendall of
the Montrose had received from Scotland
Yard would not justify him in placing the
passengers under arrest. No further news
is expected here until the steamer reaches
Rinnouski. Canada whittier Inspector Dew
is going on the steamer Laurentic-
Inc superintendent SElC LIlaL Wlen he re-
ceived the wireless message from Captain
Kendall Of the Montrose, giving the mas
ter's belief that he had Dr. Crippen and
Miss Leneve on board, he replied with 8
message in which he gave the captain the
latest description OF the man and woman
wanted
Captain Kendall said in q second mes
sage that he was confirmed in his original
belief that the man known on board the
ship as the Rev. John Robinson was really
Dr.. Crippen and that his companion who
was travelling as John Robinson, jr was
Miss Leneve.
Since these exchanges between Scotland
Yard and Captain Kendall not word has
come TO the police from the steamer, said
Superintendent Froest who added that
nothing sent by Scotland Yard to Captain
Kendall would justify the latter in tax
ing any action against the suspected pas
sengers.
The statement authorized by the police
superintendent was drawn out by the story
printed il The London Express this
morning and cshied 10 other countries
