AMERICANS SLAIN
IN COLD BLOOD
FEDERAL COMMANDER IN MICA.
RAGUA HACKED TO PIECES.
UNCLE SAM IS SUPPORTED
Central American Diplomats Say This
Country Has Not Been Too Strong
III Fighting Zelayaism-Peace
Will Be Forced.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. dispatches TO
the state department indicate that the
American first named as Phillips, who
was murdered by the rebels with an
other American named Dodd at the bat
tie of Leon, on August 10, really was
an American named Cravens, although
no more is known of him.
It is developed that Craven, badly
wounded, was carried by Dodd to hut,
where the rebels fell upon them. Neither
y as armed and they were murdered IN
cold blood. Gen. Zeledon, in command
of the federals, was hacked to pieces
with machete by women.
Central American dip iplomats expressed
the general opinion that the United
States in its note on the Nicaraguan sit
uation and the Central American danger
from the revolution had not been any
too strong in its demands that peace De
restored and Zelayism be prevented from
returning.
There was no difference among the dip
lomats as to the general desire among
the governments of Central America to
keep anything like Zelayism from gain
ing power.

WHAT SHALL BE
DONE WITH REBELS?
THIS QUESTION PUZZLES THE Ma
TI0NAL GOVERNMENT.
FEDERALs DEMAND THEM
Murder Charge Lodged in Extradition
Procedure-May Be Tried in the
United States Violating the
Neutrality Law Is Charged.

Washington.-The disposition of Mex
lean rebels who are deserting and cross
ing the boundary into the United States,
or are being chased across by federals,
threatens to become a perplexing prob
lem. Without precise knowledge on the
point at the war department, it is as
sumed most of the mep and certainly
the members of Gen. Orozco's personal
staff and his father, who were captured
by Capt. Mitchell at Presidio, Tex, re-
main in the custody of Gen. Steever. He
can not keep them indefinitely, however,
and it is expected at the war department
they will be turned over to officers OF the
department of justice or released if no
charge is lodged against them, under
guarantee that they will not undertake
hostile action against Mexico while IN
the United States.
It is possible that the prisoners may
be tried in the United States, not for
any act committed in Mexico, even the
alleged killing of helpless American
prisoner of war, but on charges OF vio
lating the neutrality laws. 1t IS De
lieved, however, that they will be treat
ed leniently and that, if through the
speedy collapse of the rebellion, the issue
of an amnesty proclamation is possible
they will be permitted to take advaD
tage of its provisions.

MILLIONAIRE TO ROCK PILE
Frederick Pinkus Tried to Kidnap I'm
protected Girl.

New York.-Frederick Pinkus, million
aire linen manufacturer, viii spend
eleven days in the workhouse on Black
wells Island because he tried stone age
methods of kidnapping Miss Elsie Hutter,
20 years old, right under the white lights
of Broadway.
According to the girl, Pinkus, ri~ing
in large touring car, overlook her as
she was waiting for a car to go to the
home Of her brother at 2 o'clock in the
morning. He offered to take her home;
she refused to go. So Pinkus dropped
his cigarette case. As she stopped to
pick it up, another man in the'car seized
her by the shoulders and dragged hef
inside.
Her captor, according to Miss Hutter,
tried to kiss her. She replied with lab
from her hatpin. Sergeant Quinn and a
policeman were standing on Seventh ave-
nlse. when the car bearing the screaming
oirl bore down upon them. They sprang
n front of the automobile, rescued the
ladv who was about to leap from the
arms of her admirer, and arrested Mr.
Pinlxus and "Mr. Winchester, JrY" OF

NICARAGUAN REBELS
ATTACK u. S. TROOPS
FIGHTING WAS FIERCE, BUT LOSSES
NOT KNOWN.
REBELS DEFY AMERICANS
Two British Subjects Reported to Have
Been Murdered at Achuapa by
-SoutherlaKd Asks
Reinforcements.

Washington.-Seve fighting between
American naval forces and Nicaraguan
revolutionists is believed to have oc-
CURED near Barrancas, although reports
from the scene are so meager officials
here have no idea of what has happened.
Rear Admiral Switzerland is in the field,
probably with upwards of 1000 men, and
if plans have not miscarried he has
cleared the route of the National railway
of opposing rebels and relieved the fam
ine-threatened city of Granada.
European attention to affairs in Mica
ragua at this time is believed to be one
of the possibilities of the situation. The
United States in sending relief to the
beleaguered city of Granada, populated
by many foreigners, had hoped to avert
any pretext for landing European mill
tary or naval forces on Central American
sail. The British consul-general at Ma
nagua and the British vice-consul at
Matagalpa have reported two British
subjects murdered by the rebels at
Achuapa.
1t is expected, however, the BRUSH
government, before taking action upon
its own account, will awaiS results OF the
American campaign.
A delayed cablegram FROM Admiral
Switzerland, reporting thai American
blueiackets and marines were fired upon
as they attempted 10 open the railway
reached the navy department. Delayed
reports said the Granada relief party
had been fred upon; thNt the officer II
command had halted ard sent to Ma
nagua for reinforcements anu that al
miral Southerlaltd had gone TO the res
cue with two companies OF marines anC
detachment of sailors.

CUBA is NEARING CRISIS
Last Dollar of the $16,5OO,0OO Speyer
Loan Spent.

Havana.-It is felt generally here that
Cuba is approaching a crisis in its his
tory as a republic.
That the treasury is empty; that the
last dollar of the SIG, 500, 900 Speyer loan
has been spent, while the work of sew
ering Havana, the principal purpose for
which the plan was authorized by the
United States, is net only not half fin
ished, but in danger of interruption, if
not of abandonment; that the govern
ment is at its wits end to find money
to meet its vast expenditures, while re-
ceipts from customs and the lottery have
reached their lowest point-all this Is
asserted by the enemies of the govern
ment, and most of it frankly admitted
by all. Everywhere it is asked how
long can this state of affairs continue
Last month the government defaulted,
for the first time, on the account due to
the sewering and paving contractors for
work done in July, amounting to about
$4,000.

CROP EAST OF RIVER
SHORT Of LAST YEAR
COTTON IN WEST FRUITED ABOUT
LIKE CROP OF 1911.
INSECT DAMAGE is SMALL
Danger From Frost of Average Date Is
Comparatively Small Except in
Oklahoma, Northern Texas
and Tennessee.

West of the river, owing to good se@
Bons, with few drawbacks, the crop has
gone on in good shape for nearly the en-
tire season. In this section the plant is
well advanced and much picking has al
ready been done. Taken as a whole,
the crop on that side of the stream is
from so to rs per cent. opened, although
in Oklahoma there is probably more late
cotton 'thaa in any other state. Much
of this is IN danger of frost. In the
west the plant is heavily fruited-most
correspondents. estimate as heavily as
last year.
In the east only a small portion OF
the crop is opened, although it is esti-
mated that a very small portion is in
danger of frost of average date, except
in Tennessee, where the plant is still
vigorous. The plant over the entire
section is late, but has not fruited hear
estimates place it from so to rs
per cent of last year-and as there is
little promise of top crop it is believed
that picking, when once well started
will not last for long.
The insect damage to the crop has
been small when compared with other
years. Considerable boil weevil have ap
peared in Mississippi and Louisiana, but
fairly good crop was made before theil
appearance. Elsewhere the damage from
insects has been negligible.
Correspondents size up the crop about
like this:
Carolinas-Crop much below last year
Little in danger from frost.
Georgia-Crop very short-from so t.
65 per cent. of last year. Almost nc
danger of frost.
Alabama-Estimates average fruitagt
at about two-thirds of last year.
Mississippi-Some sections expect goot
crop, others poor, but nearly all below
.ast year.
Tennessee and Missouri-Good crol
promised, but it is late and in DANCE
from frost.
Arkansas-Much diversity of opinion
but generally below last year.
Oklahoma-Mest estimates for bes
yield in history of state, with late frost
Texas-Average about the same a
last year.

Have Cattle Dipped.
Jackson.-Stoek and cattle raisers OF
the state are much interested in case
which will likely come to trial in the
circuit court of Jefferson county, now
in session at Fayette.
1t is a direct attack on the constltu-
tionality of the live stock sanitary board
of the state to order all cattle dipped IN
the campaign of cattle tick eradication.
T. w. Abbott, well known planter OF
Jefferson county, refused to dip his cat
tie. He was then hailed before justice
of the peace and fined $50. He perfect
ed an appeal to the circuit court from
the Judgment, and has employed attor-
news to fight the case. The lawyers an
nounce that they do not believe the law
IS constitutional; that it is an invasion
Of private rights, and the matter will be
taken to the supreme court. Following
the lead Of Mr.. Abbott, there are sly
other cattle owners of the county who
refused to have their cattle dipped anc
who are in court under the same con
dition.
