Though no dispatches were received
from Nicaragua at the State Department
yesterday. the officials there felt not the

detailed report on conditions in Ora
NADIA in a day or two.

following a complete study of the docu-
ment by government officials and con-
ferences with the Costa Rican legation
concerning the personality OF the signers

drunkenness but was released on the
payment of $3.50, all the money he
had. as it was his first offense of the
kind.
