AMERICAN INTERESTS
LARGE IN NICARAGUA

New York. Aug. 2s.--American in
terests in Nicaragua are almost
wholly represented by j. and W. Sell
isman Co., and Brown Brothers X
Co., who several years ago received
II charter to establish in that country
u national bank in which the home
government was To he large stock
holder.
These bankers also offered 10 loan
Nicaragua $4,000, 900, subject, to the
approval of the Nicaraguan congress
and the congress of the United States.
The latter withheld its approval, ,
whereupon the bankers made Il tenn
porary loan of $l,500.000 TO meet
Nicaragua's more pressing needs.
For this loan the bankers received
as part collateral the right to collect
customs at all Nicaraguan ports nam
ing their own Representatives Shortly
after the present revolution broke out
it was discovered tnat some 100000
of NicaIaguan paper money repre-
senting by reason of its debased
standard. perhaps 10000 900 of Unit
ed States currency, had been issued,
10y the revolutionists,
without the knowledge of the govern
ment.
Many claims of various characters
are pending against Nicaragua. the
largest being that of an English bank
ing syndicate for about SIS, 200, 900.
other claims include damages arising
from mining. Industrial and railroad
concessions most of which are under
stood to have been revoked by the
general now commanding the revoln-
tionary forces.

NICARAGVAN SITUATION
REGARDED AS CRITICAL

Washington, Aug. 2S.--Grave con-
cern over the situation in Nicaragua
was expressed at the state depart
ment today A single direct dispatch
from Nicaragua told of a serious stu
alton in Matagalpas. The dispatch
was sent by 125 Americans, and told
of the killing of a German named
Nelson, and appealed to the state de-
partment for immediate protection.
Lack of further dispatches from Mic
aragua was source of anxiety.
Prompted by an order sending In
fantry to Nicaragua. later revoked,
the revolutionary iunta here sought
to open negotiations with the state
department with the object of ending
hostilities. Agel Ugate. of the junta,
sought to interview William r. 5.
Doyle. chief of the division of Latin
American affairs in the department,
to submit u proposition for the with
drawal of American troops and the
submission of the issues of the revo-
luton to an election. Mr.. Doyle de-
clined to receive Ugate officially and
advised him to submit his proposals
through Senor Castillo. the Mica
raguan minister.
A general Central American out
break, as a result OF the Nicaraguan
situation, entered into the fears of
the department tonight. A belated
dispatch from Minister Weitzel re-
fers to an eruption OF refugees OF
the late Zelayan regime from Hon
duras into Nicaragua" This was
taken by the department to presage
widening of the revolutionary op-
erations which might become general
in Central America.
