lBy Cable TO The Tribunc.l

Managua. Nov. 29.-The government
of Nicaragua is making all possible
capital out of the kilograms that have
passed between President Rafael
Iglcsias Of Costa Rica and President
Adolfo Diaz of Nicaragua over the ar
rest Of DR.. Salvador Mendieta, a uni
versity professor. who is charged with
a political offence. This exchange or
messages, 1t is proudly pointed out, in
dicates a more orderly and more hu-
name observance Of the law in Mic
aragua than when General Zelaya was
in authority and exercised his dictato-
rial powers.
President Iglesias interceded with
President Diaz and expressed the hope
that the political scaffold' would be
abolished in Central America Presi-
dent Diaz replied that the only lives
that have been in danger were those of
his friends and his own.

Salvador Mcndeta has been condemned
To death in that republic for political
reasons" President Iglesias wrote.
without prejudging the causes winch
may have warranted that last resort,
take the liberty of pleading to you for
the Communication Of the sentence, II il
has been really given, not only in the
name of Central America and by my
desire of seeing the complete disappear
ance Of the political scaffold. but also
secure i'm my confidence Of your own
ever magnanimous and generous senu-
ments."
The reply Of President Diaz follows
II answer your courteous telegram In
which it plea.ses YOU 10 intervene fcr
the life of Senior Salvador Mendieta
whose life is supposed to be in dan
ger, according 10 rumors circulated in
that republic. In answer it is a pleas

immortality and iniquity Of the criminal
attempt which has resulted in the i'm.

which passes the limits of a mere po-
litical action, my government. strong in

DECLARES GERMANY
IS AIDING HUERTA
American in London Tells The
Tribune Source of Mexican
DictatOr's Funds.
rBy Gable to The Tribuncl

London, Nov. 29.-The Tribune cor
respondent was told to-day by an
American allied with various banking
interests in London and on the Cont
nent that the money now leaking into
Huerta's Golfers is not from England,
but from Germany.
Germany, the American says. is try
ing to weaken American interests in
their hold upon Mexico, because it be-
lieves the Monroe Doctrine to be harm
full to the German imperialistic policy
and possible colonization by the
Fatherland.
Brussels. Nov. 29--Mexican agents are
still seeking loans here, and il IS under
stood that Luis de la Barra. the financial
agent in London of the Mexican govern
ment. has entered into negotiations for
advances. but has not hitherto been very
successful.
The Philippson Bank, which is behind
the Secondary Railroads Company, whose
concession for 900 miles of railroads is
pending before the Mexican Congress, Is
considered the concern most likely TO
make a loan 10 Huerta's administration.
f. NJ. Philippson, however, said to-day
that a Mexican loan could not now be
floated in Belgium, as the situation was
too uncertain.

Although Rear Admiral Cradock,
commanding the British ships in Mex
lean waters, ranks Rear Admiral
Fletcher by virtue Of seniority, the
British commander has informed the
American officer that he wishes TO
subordinate himself in cooperating

fresh evidence Of friendly feeling and
hearty cooperation between the two

with manifest qualification.

vised by Rear Admiral Fletcher Of the
extent Of the plans adopted by the
American commander TO safeguard
British as well as American interests

Of the British officer in sailing away

the S. Fl. Taylor farm west of
Clifford. Ernest Thorne, who
is working the place, lost twelve
head of fine horses and two colts
besides some thirty tons of hay
and all harnesses. Mr.. Taylor
lost one horse. The family re-
tired at about 10 O'Clock in the
evening and at 3 o'clock Mrs.
Thorne was awakened and got
up to see the barn completely en-
quilted in flames. The household
was aroused but nothing could
be done to save the building or
it's contents and everything was
lost.
Many people attended the
Congregational Church Sunday
morning to listen to the message
delivered by Mrs. Washington,
who is visiting in this city. AS
a subject for her talk she used
the thoughts and inspirations
derived from her trip through
Denver, Salt Lake City, Port
land, Vancouver and Victoria"
The congregation was very
greatly pleased with what she
had to say and hope to have the
pleasure of hearing her again.
Among other things Mrs. Wash
ington said that one of the most
pleasing little cities that she has
had the pleasure of visiting is
our own city of Hope.
