GUNS TRAINED ON THE Ty, Amencan Warship in Con- trol at Corinto. WARNlNfi SENT ZELAYA mscwsu PATE OF ANDREE NH by Bkl ol Pu- North, g, Oihva. Ont., Ded. '4—An. h’baront{nq tory which mey disclose the fate of A Andree, the explorer, who Jeft ttzbergen it & balloon twelve years ago in search of the North pole and wbo pever returnod, is:40l4 by Bishop Albart Pascal of Prince Albert, who bes been visiting here.

Panama, Dec. |—Cleared for action and with her guns trained on the ety the gunboat Vieksburg is in control of the situation at Corinto, according te ®dvices received here. Following the severing of diplomatie gelations with Nicaragua the Vicks- burg’s commander took prompt and decisive steps to protect American ia- terests. Notice was served on the provincial government and Zelaya's representa- tiv: at Corinto that the United States will hold him personally responsible for any harm done Americans. This ‘was emphasized by the training of the guns (n the governor’s palace and the statement that it would be blown sky- ward the moment an American was attacked. PUT IT UP TO CONGRESS Taft Will Send Message on Nicaraguan Situation. Washington, Dec. i—There seems to be little doubt that the president will lay before congress at an early date the facts as to the Nicaraguan situation, with a view to receiving au- thority for any further steps he may see fit to take in the interest of Amer- icans resident in that country and with & view to putting an end to the inter- minable strife in Central America. The opinion of indemnity for thel killing of the Americans, Cannon and Groce, is still held in abeyance and there is reason to believe that no de- mand will be made until the issue be- tween the Zelayan government and the revolutionists has been settled. It is the view of the United States that there is at present no responsible gov- ernment in Nicaragua. ‘When the proper time comes, it is stated, there will be no waste of time in seeking reparation. Should the Ze- laya government prove successful there is no doubt that the money de- manded for the killing of the Ameri- «cans would far exceed the amount re- +quired in case of the success of the :revolutionists, who are in no way re :sponsible for the outrage. Gunboats Can Handle Situation. ‘With the arrival at Corinto possibly ~of the cruiser Albany and the gunboat Yorktown from Magdalena bay the United Btates will be in a position to take aB aggressive steps as any occa- slion may demand for the protection ot American interests along the Pacific < coast of Nicaragua. Together with the assistance of the gunboat Vicksburg the three warships will have a quota of fighting men of about 600. The guns aboard the ves- sels are considered large enough to -subdue any hostile demonstration ‘against Americans in any of the sea- port towns. In event of trouble in the ‘interior the 600 men, with a supply ot ammunition, are regarded as a force sufficient to bring fear to any force likely to present themselves in oppo- sition. Landing of bluejackets or the shell- ing of seaports is not expected. Neith- er is the seizing of the customs house at Corinto, now held by the British after the Nicaraguan government re- fused to pay a debt. Only after a de- mand for indemnity for the killing of Groce and Cannon and a refusal to pay that claim might such steps be taken. PRAIRIE STILL IN THE MUD Transport Being nghtered in Effort to Float Her. Philadelphia, Dec. .—The transport Prairie, carrying 700 marines and a cargo of equipment to be used in a possible campaign in Nicaragua, is 8till stuck in he mud at Pea Patch island, thirty-five miles from his city, where the vessel grounded. early Thursday night. The lightering ot the vessel's coal and stores continues without interruption. The ammunition is also being unloaded, and, because of the dangerous character of the con- tents of the ammunition boxes, this work is proceeding slowly. The ma- rines have not yet been taken off, but they probably will have to be set ashore. The Prairie is almost a quarter of a mile out of her course, rivermen de- clare, and they say the entire carge may have to be taken out before tugs will be able to float her. The Prairie is so hard aground that it is expected that she will have to be brought back to the navy yard here for survey. Striker Mortally Wounded. arn their languege.
