KNOX MAKES REPLY TO MADRlz
Places Blame for Any Violation of
 Neutrality Upon Nicaraqua.

Washin gton, D. C.-President Mad rig has drawn from this government a sharp reply to the protest he made to President Taft, claiming that the United States had prolonged the war in Nicaragua because it refused to allow the bombardment of Bluefields or to allow the Venus to maintain a blockade there. Consul Olivares at Managua has been furnished with a statement which the consul has been directed to hand to Madriz. It terse- ly observes that if any violation of neutrality has occurred it was when the Venus sailed from New Orleans as an expedition of the Madriz fac tion. Madriz protested not to the United States alone, but to all the South American republics. The statements which he set forth in his te.egrams were construed by the sta,e department as nothing less than aE effort to place in a false light the policy which the United States has adopted iR dealing with the Nica- raSuan affairs.
