NEGRO IS CAPTURED
AFTER LONG CHASE
TINsLEY SPEEDS UP
AND APPHEHENDs MAN WHO

Although he may be the possessor
of large amount of superhuous fat,
Patrolman Charles Tinsley has not
decreased in speed This fact was
demonstrated yesterday afternoon
when he ran down a negro who had
just participated in a fracas on upper
Hull street.
Following a crap game Charles Har
vie and George Jones, negroes. be-
came engaged in an argument as to
the ownership Of dime which had
been picked up near the scene Of the
game. Jones drew a revolver on the
other negro. A scuffie followed and
while 1t was IN progress Captain
Wright and Policemen Westcott and
Tinsiey hove in sight.
The two negroes started off at
rapid gait with the officers following
closely behind. Patroiman TinsleE
picked out one while Captain Wright
and westcott started after the other
who did not possess the speed of his
brother crap-shooter.
Although the negro got good start
on the officer. the latter started off at
rate which, in the estimation of the
bystanders. would have made Dorando
uneasy. The negro finally darted in
gate and took refuge in kitchen.
Policeman Tfnsley followed him into
tho room and placed him under ar
rest. In the meantime Captain Wright
and Policeman Westcott had placed
the other negro under arrest.

Washington by the Calvadnrean CON-
mlttee Of the Central American Ma
tionai association, and signed by
Federico Penado as chairman, reviews
the history of American participation
in the affairs Of Central America in
recent years, and protests against the
Nicaraeuan treaty.
Charges Intrigue by L. s.
we hold" says this manifesto,
that the government of the United
States. within the past few years set
up, through diplomatic intrigue and
military force, a satrapy Of native
hirelings in the free and independent
state OF Nicaragua for the purpose
of negotiating an International treaty
in. fragrant violation of the public
opinion of Nicaragua and of the other
states affected, of all principles of
Justice and reason, of the national con-
stitution OF Nicaragua and of its ex-
isting treaties and understandings
with other Central American repub-
lies !"
/. The manifestor recites the events
leading up TO the installation of Adolf
pho Diaz as president Of Nicaragua,
claiming that he does not represent
the majority of the people OF his coun~
try. Ii states that this usurpation
stands without parallel in the history
Of Central America and is a fruit OF
dollar diplomacy" and tells how
American marines under Admiral
Sutherland helped put down revolu-
ton against Diaz.
So 900 900 Too Little Pay.
The manifesto urges that the pro-
posed payment of 100000 for the
rights desired by the United States Is
too small. hut adds that n compensa-
ton more rational than cash stipend
would be the Improvement by the
army Of United States employees now
working on the Panama canal of the
San Juan river, so mat big steamers
might reach the Lake OF Mica ragua.
The fact Is also pointed 20 that the
Gulf of Fonseca washes the shores of
Honduras and Salvador as we'll as
those OF Nicaragua, and thai therefore
these two countries are as much inter-
ested in the proposed concessions as
is Nicaragua itself.
Unless the consent of ali the af-
fected countries Ia gained. ii is claim
ed, the professions of the new DEM
ocratic administration for policy
OF Justice toward Latin America will
not be carried out
probably the consideration which
Is causing us the most intense con-
Germ" continues the manifesto. Els the
fact that the treaty will forever put
an end TO the efforts to consolidate the
Central American republics into one
grand federation. Such great prog
ress has been made toward this con-
summation devotedly to be wished
that we now believe the loEx-sought
