Idea Attempt Was Made to
Blow Up His Train.

Santo Doming D. March 2S.-The Amer

that the State Department had no in
formation in any way substantiating
the rumor of a plot in Nicaragua to blow
w his train with dynamite.
According to Managua dispatch pub

in the sentencing To death Of forty OPP
ponents of the government. Another dis
patch from Managua says that the allie
cations have been trumpet up as an eX-
Cuse to dispose of certain Zelaya adher-
ents
Secretary Knox ridicules the idea Of
plot. and believes that the report has
been circulated TO discredit his mission.
When the Secretary arrived at Corinto
the American consular agent told Will
lam T. S. Doyle. chief Of the Latin
American division of the state Depart
mcnt, that he had heard a rumor that an
attempt would be made to blow up the
Secretary's train This was not taken
seriously. however.
4 PILOT train preceded the special and
a careful lookout was kept and stops
were made 10 examine the tracks. SO
far a s is known nothing was found or a
suspicious nature. and II would have
been almost impossible Of conCeament
had anything like dynamite been dis
covered. as the pilot was I'm sight OF the
special almost all the time.
Managua was reached several hours
behind time, which caused a report in
the capital that the train had been blown
up. Meanwhile the captain Of the ar
mored cruiser Maryland. who went on a
later train to Managua, found the tele-
graph lines interrupted. He reached the
capital in a state OF excitement, which
caused further rumors.
The several rumors could not he traced
10 their original source. but did not APP
pear to have the least foundation IN
fact. The story had # that dynamite was
found near Leon. but that district was
closely guarded.
Secretary Knox and his party returned
aboard the armored cruiser Washington
this evening. The cruiser then proceeded
for st. Thomas.
