MARINES INVITED
Nicaragua Admitted 1t Could
Not Protect American
Property.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-Nicaragua
has taught the Latin republics a
new wrinkle by which it secures the
assistance of the United States
against its international enemies and
makes a virtue of a necessity for the
landing of American forces to pro-
tect American lives and property.
Seeing that it could not fight its
rebels and take care of the inter-
ests of the United States. the re-
public of Nicaragua officially invited
yesterday the landing of marines and
soldiers to protect property that has
been seized by the rebel ch~ieftain,
General Mena.
The circumstances under which the
Annapolis landed 100 men are told in
the account of Minister Weitzel. ut
Manauga, to the State department
yesterday.
The American company owning and
operating the railroad line from Co
rinto to Granada and the steamships
on the inland waters of Nicaragua
had made a vigorous protest to Min
lister Weitzel against unlawful taxi
ing, use and destruction of some of
its property by lawless bands, who
were acting under General Louis
Mena's orders. When Minister Welt
eel took the protest to the Niciraguan
foreign office the United States was
requested to use its forces to pro-
American citizens in Nicaragua.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6. David Be
Iasco will stage two plays the first
week in October to aid United States
Judge Holt to decide a suit for dam

which Abraham Goldknopf has

c. De Mile. The plays will be The
woman written by De Mile on
Belasco's order, and Tainted Phi
lanthropic," written by Goldknopf
and rejected by Be1asco before "The
Woman" was produced by him.
The offer came as a climax to q
heated argument between Belasco.
Goldknopf and Adolph FREEZER. the
compliments attorney, during which
Belasco declared he was the victim
of a conspiracy fathered by the Shu-
berts, and hat the two plays bore
no other similarity than that a pic
ture of George Washington appears
in both.
Goldknopf claims hat Belasco and
De Mile "pirated" his play after re-
jecting it and rewrote it into THE
Woman" Judge Holt announced that
he will attend the novel exhibition
of evidence offered by Belasco and
will have the aid in his decision of
Commissioner Gilchrist. Belasco

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6. SEN

a position with respect to the
negro question more advanced than
any of his colleagues yet have

that his new party would be a white

claring that it should be white in the
South and black and white in the
North, but perfection in mental pro-
cess is not TO be expected of m who
is going to thoroughly revolutionize
long held opinion. He will come out
ali right in the end, and will each

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-Detailed plans
for the voluntary dissolution of the
National Packing Company have been
presented to Attorney-Genera Wick
ersham. 1t is understood that they
will have his approval. The plans
split up the territory of the National
Packing Company between Armour
& Co, Swift & Co. and Morris & Co.
in such a way that these three In
terests encroach as little as possible
on each others territory.
The division Is made in such a way
that one of the three concerns Is to
have exclusive control of the smaller
cities, thus eliminating competition.
As an example the Armours have the
absolute control, Passaic, N. j.; Ports
mouth, N. H.; Lowell, Mass: the
Swifts have control in Albany. n. ";
Scranton, Pa, and other cities; while
Norris & Co. control Paterson, N. j.,
and other cities of similar size.
