American marines, securing northern

There were no marine casualties.
The marine patrol commanded by

the rebel forces to earth and should
the Sandino followers venture to leave
their hiding places in the mountains It
is expected other contacts viii be
made.
The eight Americans wounded in
Mondays encounter today were en-
route to Ocotal by OK cart and plans
were made to transfer them to MI n
aqua by airplane as soon as possible.
In the absence of further information
from the scene it is believed that
Lem G. Davis of Nixon, Texas, the
most Eeriously wounded of the men,
was recovering. The five men killed
in the fight were buried near the scene
of the engagement.
In the opinion of marine heJ.dquar-
ters, the Daraili fight bears all the
earmarks of an ambush although no
definite report on this point hes been
received from Lieutenant Edward F.
O'Day, commander of the Daraili TI,ck
train.
The fact that the Sandino band had
at least one machine gun has les to
the conclusion here that it was an inn
porthnt element Of Sandino's force.
