\ WASHINGTON, July 9.-Secretary
Knox's determination to bring Zelaya
to punishment if responsible for the
murder Of the two Americans Groce
and Cannon is reiterated in his in
structions to the American delegation
to the Pan-American conference which
were made public today. Knox says:
"As you are aware, there are now no
diplomatic relations between the
United States and Nicaragua for the
reason that this government has not
yet seen it's way clear to recognize
any movement as in the possession
and exercise of the government ma
chinery of the whole country with the
consent of the government as able
and ordering to discharge its interna-
tional obligation. as capable of re-
spending to demand for indemnity
for the murder of American citizens
last winter, as determined to bend
every effort to bring those guilty to
justice whoever they may be and as
prepared to strengthen for its part
and to abide by the Washington con-
ventions.''
The phrase, "To bring those guilty
to justice whoever they may be, 2
points clearly to zelaya himself, who
is now in Belgium. Every day it is
becoming more evident that the Mad-
riz faction is only thin aleguise of
Zelayaism, and the old time Zelaya-
ism and that the old time dictator him
self is the main figure back of it.
Secretary Knox's utterance makes
it clear that he is determined to hold
out until government is established
in Nicaragua, which will put an end
to Zelayaism and make an attempt to
secure the extradition of Zelaya and
try him for his many crimes.
