SEEK TO RESTORE PEACE.
Nicaragua's Neighbors Bring Pres.
sure to Bear on Warning Factions.

Neighboring republics are bringing
pressure to bear upon the warning ele-
ments in Nicaragua to induce them to
settle their differences in a peaceful and
orderly manner. The American minister
at Managua has reported to the State De-
partment that, acting under instructions
from their governments, the ministers
from Costa Rica and Salvador resident in
Managua are doing their best to stop the
rebellion, but SO far without success
The situation yesterday appeared to be
unchanged, with both government and re-
bellious forces intrenched, the former in
the capital and the latter at Granada, but
avoiding conflict. The railroad between
Managua and the west coast port of
Corinto is in operation, so that Capt
Terhune of the Annapolis. lying in that
port, is able to keep in close touch with
Lieut.. Campbell. in command of the blue
Jackets acting as guards at Managua.

will sail directly to Yokohama without
touching at Honolulu. But the voyage is
400 miles in length. and, although the
Pennsylvania is one of the fleetest YES
sells in the service. and CAPABLE of easily
making more than twenty knots an hour
Under ordinary circumstances. the big
ship will creep along at about ten or
twelve knots, requiring about eighteen
days for the passage.
The explanation is found in the fact
that vessel burns much more coal pro.
portionately in the distance travelled at
high than at low speed, and vessels Of
the Pennsylvania class find their most
economical speed al about ten or twelve
knots
In other words. her coal supply will
carry her the greatest distance at that
speed 1t will become necessary to carry
fuel on deck in this case. as the Pennsyl-
vania will not be able to recoal "a Homo
