tives working on the S57 800 express rob-
berry are proceeding on the theory that
the gold was stolen soon after the

who are under surveillance at Fairbanks,
but have not been arrested.
The suspected men are a clerk in the
Washing ton Alaska bank OF Fairbanks.
a relief OF the purser OF the steamer Ia
mana. and two miners.
The use OF duplicate bank seal on
the boxes by the robbers gave the de-
tcctives the first clue. The agents be-
lievc that an employee OF the Tanana,
who had acted as a relief for the purSer,
permitted the two miners 10 enter the
private compartments in which the
treasure was stored, where they pried off
the Iron band protecting the seals and
removed the gold. The seal. wires and
band were then replaced and the seal
and wax Of the bank duplicated.
Immediately after the boat landed at
Tanana the two miners left for the hills.

Asks Aid Of United States in
Establishing Stable Govern
ment in Nicaragua.
AMERICAN COMMISSIONER
TO CONSIDER CLAIMS
Plans to Call Constitutional Con-
ventiOn and Fix Date for
National Election.

WASHINGTON, Sept. IA definite
programme for the establishment of a
stable government in Nicaragua and for
the financial rejuvenation of the coun-
try was set before the American gov.
ernmcnt today for its approval in q
long cable dispatch from Provisional al
President Estrada which Senior Saliva
tore Castrillo, Nicaraguan representa-.
tive IN Washington, presented to AS
S1stant Secretary of State Huntington
Wilson,
First of ALL President Estrada wishes
TO reestablish friendly relations with
the United States.
He suggests that the American gov
ernment appoint a high commissioner
TO visit Nicaragua, one with full pow
ers to negotiate if necessary, Il treaty
covering all the claims which the Unit
ed states now has against Nicaragua,
Several Claims Pending.
These include the claim for indemnity
Tor the execution of the Americans,
Groee and Cannon, and the Emery claim
The Nlcaraguan government desires to
settle these claims and to get money
to pay them. President Estrada ex-
pressed his desire to negotiate loan
which would be guaranteed by the set
ting aside Of per cent Of Nicaragua IS
customs receipts.
In the matter Of re-establisbing the
government Of Nicaragua on a firm
basis the president stated that con-
stltutlonal convention would be called,
probably the latter part of this month,
or the fore part Of October. to recog-
nize him as provisional president and
fix date on which a national election
should be held.
Down to Real Business.
Senor Castrillo, representing the Es-
trada government, had a long confer
ence today with Mr.. Dawson, the re-
firing chief Of the Latin American bu-
reau, regarding Nicaraguan affairs gen
orally.
Judging from the experience of the
Cubaps, it might fairly be expected
that the election Of an assembly and
the enactment of laws by that body pro-
vidjng for the presidential election
would consume a period of six months
and an equal length of time would be
required for the election itself and the
Inauguration Of the new permanent
president. 1t is expected that within
a few days Estrada will issue DEGREES
providing for the election of a constit
uent assembly as tho initial step.
