Folks had be- come used to the old fashioned way, and they refused to adopt the new. It didn’t seem natural and when they came across a word spelled according to the new style, they hesitated and often wondered what the word was and more often provoked at the liberty taken with some of them. Just another fad, gone the way of a hundred predeces- sors,” “Just for a cod, I'd like to know why newspapers and coun- try newspapers in particular must always be a target because they charge full legal rates for legal advertising.

T n BONILLA A PRISONER President of Honduras Reported to Have Surrendered. NEWS COMES FROM ENEMY Message Gives No Details of the Af- fair, but It Is Supposed That the Nicaraguans Have Captured Ama. pala, Where Bonilla Was Bottled Up. New Orleans, April 1;—According to a cablegram received by the offi- cials of the Fruit Dispatch company here President Manuel Bonilla of Hon- duras has surrendered to the Nic- araguan forces. The cablegram came from Managua, Nicaragua, and was signed by President Jose S. Zelaya. No details were given other than that Bonilla had surrendered. Ad- vices received here Thursday, how- ever, were to the effect that Bonilla had been “bottled up” in the port cf Amapala ever since he made his sen- sational flight from Choluteca. Panama, April 1 .—A personal friend here of President Zelaya of Nicaragua has received a dispatch from Santos Ramirez, director gen- eral of telegraphs and telephones, in- forming him that Amapala, Honduras, to which place President Bonilla of Honduras retreated after his defeat at Choluteca, would probably surrender to the Nicaraguan forces shortly. FOR PERMANENT PEACE. Plan to End Unsettled Conditions in Central America. Washington, April 1 .—That all of the Central American republics are looking to the present state of war- fare between Nicaragua and Honduras to resuit in an agreement for per- manent peace in Central America was developed during the day by a gen- eral discussion at the state depart- ment. With that end in view the negotiations looking to a cessation of hostilities will not go so far as to take up the subject of permanent peace, but will leave this broad question to a conference to he held in Washington or the City of Mexico and in which all of the countries immediately interest- ed may take part. The United States and Mexico, according to the embry- onic plans, will occupy the important positions of umpires. The conflict between two of the Central American republics, which is now drawing to a close, has made it apparent to all that the present un- settled conditions there are hamper- ing the development of the countries. The various republics not involved in the war kept free with the greatest difficulty and commercial affairs in all of them were affected. With the United States and Mexico urging the placing of the republics on a firm basis, so that they might dwell am- icably together and enjoy an infer- change of business, and with the les- sons taught by the present war there is every indication that a permanent agreement may be reached. The plan has not gone far enough for the suggestion of a date for such a conference. but it is assumed that it will not interfere with the confer- ence at The Hague, although the two would not be in conflict in any way. Ambassador Creel of Mexico is said to be father of the idea, but it has the hearty approval of state department officials. TO PLACE HIM ON RECORD Labor Wants President's Opinion of Moyer and Haywood. Chicago, April 1.—The Chicago Federation of Labor is endeavoring to place President Roosevelt on record regarding his reported opinions of Moyer and Haywood, officials of the ‘Western Federation of Miners, charged with complicity in the assassination of former Governor Steunenberg of Idaho. E. N. Nogles, secretary of the local labor body, has sent the presi- dent the following telegram: “The newspapers report you as say- ing that Moyer and Haywood are un- desirable citizens. In view of the fact that these men will soon be put on trial for their lives we believe their chances for a ‘square deal’ would be considerably lessened if the reported statement is true. We therefore ask you for correct information upon this subject, believing a man is innocent until he is proved guilty.” Sighted Huge lcebergs. New York, April 1.—Four huge lcebergs, one of which resembled a church in general appearance, with a lofty steeple like pinnacle towering 300 feet above the surface of the sea, were sighted by the steamer Vader- land off the Grand banks of New- foundland.

It is expected that the Finnish diet wiil be dissolved if the Socialists at- temnt to pass radical legislation and should the members refuse to disperse the military occupation of the duchy will become necessary.

Favrot, who, on Nov. 7, the day after he had been elected to congress, shot and killed Pati GEORGE Dr. R. H.

Another Anarchist Caught. Paris, April 13.—A Russian an- archist disguised as a naval cadet called at the residence of Grand Duke Alexis on the Avenue Gabriel and asked to see Alexis, who was absent.

Chicago, April 13.—Final motions to quash the indictment as a whole against the Standard Oil company were overruled by Judge Landis in the United States district court. Judge Landis, in overruling the motion, stated that he had concluded that 439 of the counts in the indictment were bad and these he ruled out, leaving 1,463 that will go to the jury for con- sideration. Attorney Rosenthal, for the defense, then moved the court that the prose- cution be instructed to signify before the case went to the jury on which one of the 1,463 counts the govern- ment will hinge. its case. He main- tained that if there is an offense at all it can be but one offense and that the government must show what that one offense is.
