INDICT MACHEN AND GROFFS (Continued from First Page.) son of Major Charles fourth fnfantry. Honduras Sieses Railroad. The State department fs considering the controversy ralsed by the seisure by the government of Honduras of the raflroad from Puerto Cortez to Lapimienta, which was lased to ‘an American syndicate in 187 for twenty-five years. Senator De- pew of New York, Colonel John Jacob As- tor and other prominent people are said to be lurgely interesteds in the syndicate. The controversy grows out of a large lssue of bonds iesued many years ago to build the Tosfl. These bonds eventually found their way Into the hands of British and Ameri- can citizens, but thefr claims werp not pressed until about a year ago, when the British in Honduras filed a protest against the lease. Actlon upon the protest was postponed untll May 27, when the govern- ment seized the road. The State depart- ment has 1o information as+to why the road was confiscated, but the reports of the. American syndicate intimate that it fs to protect the interests of the government and that the interests of the syndicate are not jeopardized. Both the American bond- holders and the representatives of the syndicate have presented their cases to the department. Whether the bondhold- ers are seeking to have the department enforce their claim is not known, but it is presumed that such s thelr purpose, as they contend thé bonds are a lien on the road. The other side contends that the amount owing on account of the bonds is insigmficant compared with the sum claimed to be due.
