MARINES PREPARE FOR SANDINO CLASH Reinforced and Provisioned. Rebel Leader Believed Near Jinotega. By the Aisociated Press. MANAGUA, Nicaragua, March 8.— The rebel Gen. Augustino Sandino to- day was believed to be in the region northwest of Jinotega, where American Marines have been reinforced and eventualities. There were rumors that Sandino had ieft Nicaragua and also that he was about to ack Cabezas, but little faith was placed in them. It was stated that in all the encounters that his forces |have had with the Marines Sandino was never present at the actual fight- ing, but lurked several miles distant, this doubtless giving rise to rumors that he was leaving the country. A band of 15 rebels was routed near Biyagual after a brisk fight in which | one was slain by Marines Saturday, in- dicating the presence of Sandino in the region. W. J. Crampton, collector of customs at Puerto Cabezas, advised headquar- ters that persons in that vicinity feared an attack from Sandino, there being rumors that he was about to descend on them with a large force. Marine officers believe that a raid there is un- likely. 1a the region where Bandino 18 be- lieved 10 be five Marines were killed in a Jong and bitter battle with insurgents near Darailf last Monday. Natives who go with the pack trains w e for the mules alded the Ma- ines in the clush. One native picked {up the rifie of a fallen Marine and with a single bullet brought down the rebel who shot the Marine, DOUBLE CAUSES TROUBLE.

By a Staft Correspond ‘RICHMOND, Va.. March 5.—Another bitter fight over Arlington Cq ferendum bill was foreseen her The bill is virtually the same a introduced by Senator Ball at the spe- cial legislative session last year, and which was killed in the House. Charles T. Jesse, former Arlington County delegate to the Legislature, who defeated the bill then, and Common- wealth Attorney William C. Gloth were here today to lead the fight ag passage of the measure. On they found that the committe scheduled to take place this afternoon had been postponed until Wednesday In order to give advocates of the bill more time, That the bill stands but little chance of amendment in the few d left for its consideration becan pparent to- day when Senator Ball, in letter sent this afternoon to the Arlington County Civie Federation, disclosed that he b serfous objections to the bill now, fea ing it will be prejudicial in the penc ing anucsation suit filed by Alexandria. He is a member of counsel for Arling- ton County in the annexation trial. Jesse and Gloth also are defending the county in this case, and all are agreed that agitation of the so-called incor- poration bill at this time will be dis- astrous to the county’s cause in the pending court procecding. Jesse and Gloth announced that they are repre- senting the board of supervisors of Ar- lington County, and acting under that | authority are going to do all in thelr power to defeat the bill. Reid in Hot Water. Hugh Reld, who succecded Jesse as delegate, and who introduced the bill Friday _in accordance with a pre-elec- tion pledge to the voters, admittedly has gotten himself into hot water. He is confronted on the one hand with his campaign promise to get the bill passed. and on the other hand by the insistent entreatics of counsel in the annexation t it be withdrawn at once. Postponement of the hearing on the was granted by Reid yesterday after representatives of the Arlington County Clvie Federation had requested time in which to present the matter to the whole membership of the or- gagization at its mecting In Clarendon tomorrow night. Reid conferred with representatives of the federation and of the county Chamber of Commerce Clarendon yesterday. He advised f the insistence of annexatfon | that the bill will vitally affect ation, but is said to have in- ated he would carry out his pledge to the voters unless convinced that such a course would be detrimental to the best interests of the people.

The bill failed in the House. ‘During the last Summer the bill was made the subject of political contro- versy in our county and much acrid discussion was had. “Some of the meet- Ings were held in Jeflerson district During this campalgn, and cspecally in the late stages through October, I no- ticed a tendency on the part of some people in the lower district to resent any further attempt toward the pas- suge of an incorporation act, “After the Alexandrin suit was filed | In the late Fall a number of prominent citizens freely expressed their opinion that any further attempt at legislation along this line would drive many who were otherwise friendly to the county Lo take sides with the city.
