drawn from this government a sharp
reply to the protest he made to Presi-
dent Taft, claiming that the United
States had prolonged the war in Mica
ragua. because il refused to allow the
bombardment of BluefieldS, or to allow
the Venus TO maintain the blockade
there.
Consul OlivareS at Managua has been
furnished with statement. which the
consul has been directed to hand to
Madriz. II tersely observes that if any
violation of neutrality has occurred, ii
was when the Venus sailed from New
orleans as an expedition of the Ma
driz faction.
Madriz protested. not to the United
States alone, but to all the South
American and Central American repub-
lies. The statements which he set forth
in his kilograms are construed by the
state department as nothing less than
effort to place in a false light the
policy which the United States has
adopted in dealing with the Nicaraguan
affair.
Some of the governments which re-
ceived his protest have asked for in
formation from Washington upon
which to base their replies. and there
has been an exchange Of kilograms be-
| tween President Diaz Of Mexico and
President Taft.
