Army of Independence Again Engages Marine Troops in North Nicaragua Where Up-State Farmers Suffered Loss AMERICANS ARE LURED FARTHER | FROM SUPPLIES Revival of Fighting in North Seen MANAGUA, Aug. 29.—Reports emanating from American sources that General Sandino has fled and that his forces are daily dwindling received another seteback yesterday when a considerable detachment of the army of independence engaged a marine patrol. The Nicaraguans were under the command of Miguel Angel Ortez. The action was indecisive, Gen- eral Sandino’s men falling back into the jungle before the superior Amer- fean forces. No casualties are re- ported to have been suffered by the army of independence. Observers here point to the re- vival of fighting in Nueva Segovia as symptomatic of the substantial area under the control of the troops of General Sandino. The region is largely jungle and mountain but embraces a large section of northern Nicaragua about the upper reaches and sources of the Coco River, The late engagement is the first of any importance in Nueva Sego- via since General Sandino made his surprise offensive against the Mos- quito Coast country early this spring. Since then the American marine forces have been engaged in attempts to drive back the army of independence from its advance posi- tion. At the same time the American forces are leaving their bases farther behind as they are lured in- to the jungle country.

BOOST RAILWAY RATE. BERLIN, Aug. 29 (UP).—A 10 to 12 per cent increase recently grant- ed to railways was causing anxiety to economists today. The increase amounts to 250,000,000 gold marks net annually, and it was feared it might start a “vicious circle” of general price raising after Oct. 1, when the new rates become effec- tive. namely | Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Germany, | Italy and Poland. | Met Point Raised by Britain. | This procedure met the point! | raised by the British government in| jits note of May 19, 1928, where it! | stated that the treaty from its very | | nature was not one which concerned | | that government alone, but was one Vin which the government could not undertake to participate otherwise | than jointly and_ simultaneously | | with the governments in the Dom-| inions and the government of India; }it also settled satisfactorily the question whether there was any in- consistency between the new treaty | and the Treaty of Locarno, thus meeting the observations of the French government as to the neces- sity of extending the number cf) original signatories. | The decision to limit the original | signatories to the, powers named| above, that is, to the United States, | Japan, the parties to the Locarno) treaties, the British Dominions and | |India, was based entirely upon! practical considerations it was the desire of the United States that the | negotiations be successfully con-| | cluded at the earliest possible mo- ment and that the treaty become. operative without the delay that | would invitably result were prior, universal acceptance made a condi- tion precedent to its coming into force. “My government felt, moreover, tiat if these powers could agree uno na simple renunciation of war es en instrument of national policy | tere could be no doubt that most, 2 rot all, of the other powers of | | the world would find the formula) jequally acceptable and would ‘hasten to lend their unqualified | support to so impressive a move- | ment for the perpetuation of peace.
