Armed Forces from the United States
Desired to Cope with Danger to

partment Investigating.

Washington.-Nic has asked
the United States to land forces there
to cope with threatened invasion
from Costa Rica. The state depart
ment is investigating the situation.
The Nicafaguan legation here in a
statement on Sunday declares that fol-
lowing the collapse of the revolution
in Costa Rica president Tinoco has
massed large forces on the frontier
TinOcO, whose brother as minister
of war is at the head of the Costa
Rican army in the field, has charged
that the Nicaraguans aided the revO-
lutionists. The Nicaraguans have de-
MED the charge and cited that it was
the liberal party in Nicaragua, men,
bers of the old Zelaya regime, that
went over to TinOcO.
Nicaragua, in accord with the fin
ancial plan suggested by the United
States government, is on her recon-
struction period. after seventeen years
of the Zelaya regime according TO
the legations statement. 1T has
adopted a strictly economic budget by
which the government can have under
arms only 800 men, and has no war
budget. The people of Nicaragua have
no complaint at haying followed the
friendly suggestion of the United
States, as at the end of the last eco
monte year there was surplus of
$500. 900. and il is expected that at the
end of the present year there will be
a surplus of S1,O00,000.
I'VE believe that the time has ar
rived when the United States, in view
Of the friendly attitude that Nicaragua |
has maintained with the United States
in giving this country the option for
building the canal through Nicaragua
md for the cession of the two naval
,ases. one on the Gulf of FOnseca and
he other on the islands of the Atlantic,
md also bearing in mind that Near
,gua entered the war against Ger
many in harmony with the United
States and to aid the allies in every
vav in its power, should take hand
o protect Nicaragua against her for

WashingtOn.-Te Telegraph and tele-

been controlled and operated by the
government since last August l were
ordered on June TO resume immedi-
ate operation for their own account by
Postmaster BurlesOn. The pOstOffice
department, however, under terms of

final legislative action by congress.
Regulations prohibiting discrimina-
ton against wire employees because of
union affiliations. maintaining exist
ing rates and charges and instructing
companies TO keep special accounts
to facilitate cost settlement between
themselves and the government are re-
tained in effect under the order issued
by the postmaster general.
MIR. Burleson accompanied the order
with statement giving the reasons
which impelled him to take the action.
He asserted the president having rec
commended the return of the properties.
the senate interstate commerce commit
tee having indicated that immediate
return was advisable and the house
committee having through hearings
a desire for action toward
that end, he felt it his duty to return
operative control to the various private
owners.
Strikes threatened by telephone and
telegraph employees unions had no
bearing on the departments action, of
ficials said.

SENATORS WRANGLE
OVER TREATY LEAK
FINANcIERS ASKED TO EXPLAIN
HOW COPIES REACHED PRIVATE
HANDS IN NEW YORK.
Text of Document Brought to This
Country by Reporter Ordered Into
the Congressional Record After
Warm Debate

Washingt0n.-Out of wnirlwind of
developments the senate today got a
developments the senate on June 9 got
copy of the peace treaty; and, after
a five-hour fight, ordered it printed in
the public record.
AT the same time it got under way
the investigation of how copies have
reached private hands in New York by
summoning to testify haIf-dozen of
the country's leading financiers.
The copy, which went into the rec
ord, was brought to this country by a
newspaper man, and was presented by
Senator Borah Republican, of Idaho,
just after the reading of cablegram
from President Wilson saying he could
not, without breaking faith, send to
the senate the text of the treaty.
The effect of the days history-mak-
ing developments was to clear the air
on the much-debated subject of pub
Iicity for the treaty text, to widen the
breach between the president and the
senate majority, and to forecast a sen
sational turn for the inquiry into the
manner by which copies of the docu-
ment have become available to unau-
thorized persons.
Starting in its investigation with an
unexpected vigor, the foreign relations
committee, within half hour after it
convened, voted to call before it J. p.
Morgan, Fl. z. Dawson and Thomas f.
Lamont, all of the Morgan banking
house; Jacob Schiff, of Kuhn, Loeb &
company; and Paul Warburg, formerly
connected with the same concern, and
Frank A. Vanderlip, former president !
of the National City bank. 1t then ex-
amined Frank L. Polk, acting secretary /
of state, about the official copies in the /
state department vaults.
Statements also were made TO the |
committee by Senator Lodge. RepubH-
can, of Massachusetts, and Senator
Borah similar to their declarations in
the senate that they knew Of copies in
New York, but could not divulge the
names of their infOrmants.
When the senate met it listened in
silence to President Wilson's cable
4
refusal to comply with the request
for the treaty text embodied in reso
luton adopted Friday. The reading of
this message concluded, Senator Borah
presented his copy of the
treaty, which was ordered printed by
a vote of Al to "a.
President Wilson in a cablegram re-
ceived by Senator Hitchcock of Ne
braska, Democrat. said he hoped the
by the senate foreign re-
ations committee of how copies of the
peace treaty reached private interests
in New York would be 'mOst thorough
Iy prosecuted"
The president said he had felt it
was highly undesirable officially to !,
the text of document
which is still in negotiation and sub
iect to change" and that anyone who .
mad possession of the official English
ext "has what he is clearly not en-
titled to have or to communicate
