WASHINGTON, Sept. 2o.-Reports
of an imminent clash at Granada,

Advices from Minister Weitzel indi-
Gated that Mena has withdrawn his
forces from Granada to Matagalpa up
on the advance of the Americans.
Admiral Switzerland is reported to
be in personal charge of the United
States troops. That the expedition
to Granada is more of famine re.
lief than a hostile demonstration
against the revolutionists is declared

to put the question in type, be-
cause at this time it would be a
natural thing for progressive
journal to give a history or

ARMY MAN LOSES
 PROMISED BRIDE

PASADENA. Oct. 15.-While her trousseau is on it's way to San Fran cisco 10 he transshipped to Manila where she was to have become the bride of Lieutenant Albert Stevens of the army. Miss Elizabeth Merrihew tnow Mrs. J. H. PettiD is on her honeymoon with the man in whose favor she changed her mind d day before she was to have started on her long journey to the orient.
 Lieutenant Stevens plighted his troth to Miss Merrihew in Vermont before he went to West Point and while she was a high school girl. Pet tit came into her life six months ago while his sister was patient in a hospital.
 Miss Merrhew steadily maintained her purpose to wed Lieutenant Stew ems until the day she was to have sailed with the rousseau for San Francisco. Then she changed her mind and decided she would rather be Mrs. Petit than Mrs. Stevens, the wife of an orange rancher in California than the bride of a soldier in the far off Philippines; but it was too late then to stop the trosseau.
