ACCUSES UNITED STATES
Ex-Minister of Honduras Says
Loan Was Insisted On.
THREAT TO ASSIST REBELS
Washington, He Says, Forced
Davila to Accept Agreement
Rejected by His Congress.

New Orleans. Dec. An a 20O-page
book published here to-day Juan f. Pare
de-. former Special Minister Of Finance oil
Honduras declares the state Department
at Washington encouraged the Boniila
revolution i'm Honduras last winter IN an
attempt to force the Ionduran govern
ment To sign the Morgan loan agreement.
Paredes asserts the Washington state
Department virtually submitted TO Presi-
dent Davila Of Honduras this uitimatum
The protectorate and the Morgan loan
or the revolution"
President Davila, Paroles declares IN
his book was forced to agree to the loan
proposition and ordered the agreement
signed The following is noteworthy
passage in the compilation:
From what happened afterward il may
be inferred that Davila had entered INTO
an understanding with the state Depart,
ment that the revolution would he stopped
provided he put through the treaty ana
the loan. The seizure of the vessel toE-
net and the indictment of the revolution
lists at New Orleans are significant In TINS
connection.
According 10 Paredes however, the Hon
duras Congress almost unanimously re-
jected the loan agreement and the revo-
luton was permitted to continue"
Paredes goes on 20 say that despite the
rejection of the agreement by the Hon
duras Congress it was submitted TO the
United States Senate.
Correspondence that passed among the
governments Of Great Britain, Honduras
and the United States is published in
Paredes's book in one passage Of which he
asks:
rs it the intention Of President Taft TO
subiugate Honduras and turn the country
over 10 the dominance Of Wall street
financiers? VIII dollar diplomacy go this

The subiugaton OF The group Of little
Central American republics will mean the
abandonment Of the Monroe Doctrine, the
destruction OF the Pan-Amcrican union, a
reproach TO the United States-whch has so
long champiOned the rights Of indepen-
dence freedom and democracy-and a
source Of bitter feeling and hatred between
the races on this hemisphere.

LONDON SHOWS N. 7. HOW
Runs Forty Locals an Hour on It's
EXpressless Subway,
Inn cahle 70 The Trlbune.

London. Dec. 5.-What the manager Of
the District Railway calls worlds rec
ord for public transit facilities is to be
established in London on Monday next,
when the line will inaugurate service
of forty trains an hour between the
Mansion House and Earls Court, and
greatly accelerate the existing facili-
ties to suburban districts in general.
The superintendent of the line says:
1--WE are confident we shall provide
service unequalled in the world. We
want the Londoner to appreciate the
fact that he enjoys at last something Of
which even America cannot boast"
Forty trains an hour on the London un-
derground line compares with thirty-hve
trains an hour OH each local and express
track Of the New York subway an aegre-
gate Of seventy trains an hour from city
Hall to 95th street. distance approx
mately the same as from the Mansion
House to Earrs Court in London. The
British capital, therefore, has a local un-
derground service which at it's maximum
will comprise FIVE trains more than the
maximum Of the New York local service.
The District Railway has no express tracks.
