ANAMA, March 27.—According to | repe which have reached here | and which are considered reliable, the révolutionary movement In Nicaragua has assumed a more | alarming aspect than President Zelaya | cares to have made known to other na- | tions. With a view to conceal the real | seriousness of the most recent outbreaks | he has ordered a rigid censorship of all dispatches, and the only telegraph mes- sages ating to existing troubles that | leave the country are those containing of- ficial news officially tempered in tone, and in the main colorless. A number of steamers & operating on | Lake Nicaragua have peen captured by revolutionists, who immediately departed from the Department of Chontales and | succeeded in escaping a battle with the Zelaya forees. It is reported that an- other Central American republic has in- terested itself in the struggle agalnst Zelaya, and that it is furnishing ald to the revolutionary contingent. Whether this be true or not, the fact remains that President Zelaya is in a more distressing prédicament that he is willing to admit. e ffeorfnfoorfooieiode @ WYNDHAM BILL A0S TENANTRY Text of Irish Land Pur- chase Measure Made Public. heeieeiieiile LONDON, March 27.—The text of the Irish land purchase bill, .which was in-| troduced in the House of Commons by the Irish Secretary, Mr. Wyndham, on Wednesda given out to-day. It occupies nine pages of a par- liamentary paper and bristles with tech- nicalities. The full wording reveals many impor- | tant features which were not mentioned | in Wyndham's speech when the bill was introduced. AIl arrears of rent due at | the time of the purchase of land are re- | coverable by the land commission, and not | the arrears for a year only as previously cabled. The land commissioners, how- | ever, are given power in speclal cases to remit part or all of the arrears, The commissioners are not permitted to purchase estates which are not mainly | agricultural or pastoral. Thus Killarney | is exempt under this clause. In cases of s untenanted estates purchased by the com- missioners they are empowered to exe- | cute the necessary works of improve- ment, which tremendously enlarges the scope of the commission’'s expenditure. The commission is empowered to declare sub-tenants to be the tenants of any hold- ing by them, which will vastly benefit hundreds. Fishing, shooting and mineral rights, which are among the most controversial, will be vested in the commissioners when an estate is purchased and can be dis posed of as the commissioners decide. The commissioners are also empowered to de- termine boundary and other disputes be- | ? gs under | the bill. The commission has the flrsl‘. claim to purchase bankrupt estates and | can reeell them to tenants or use portions of them for the repatriation of evicted tenants. The latter point is being regard- ed as being one of the most vital features of the bill. — e Infanticide Story Denied. BERLIN, March 27.—Inquiries made at Warsaw, Russian Poland, regarding the report circulated in the United States by a news agency on Wednesday to the ef- fect that the widow of Lieutenant Colonel Gsowski had been arrested there on the charge of infanticide, and that the police said she had murdered 500 babies withm the last two or three years, show that nothing is known there of any such ar- rest. e SSAELY Honor for Mlle.

Reach Latitude 82.17 South on First Day of the New Year. LYTTLETON, New Zealand, March 27. Further particulars from the Antarctic relief ship Morning, which arrived here Wednesday, show that the dash for the | south made from the Discovery, which resulted in establishing the record for the | farthest point th, commenced Decem- ber 15 last, when Captain Scott of the Discovery, Dr. Wilson and Lieutenant nackleton left the depot, which had been established in §0.4 south, and reached latitude 82.17 south, not $0.17 west, as pre- viously reported. The party was absent forty-five days. After establishing a depot sixty-five miles | south of the ship the snow got soft and Captain Scott and his companions had to drag the sledges. This work was most arduous labor and lasted twenty-nine days, when another depot was established in §0.20. The explorers discharged their superfiuous gear, started southward on the dash December 15, reaching 82.17 Jan- uary 1, regained the southernmost depot January 15 and returned to their ship February 3.

It is well known to be a simple combination of the laxative and carminative principles of plants with pleasant, aro- matic liquids, which are agreeable and refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system when its gentle cleansing is desired. : Many of the ills from which women suffer are of a tran- sient nature and do not come from any organic troubls and it is pleasant to know that they yield so promptly to the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs, but when anything more than a laxative is needed it is best to consult the family physician and to avoid the old-time cathartics and loudly advertised nostrums of the present day.

WASHINGTON, March 27.—The perma- nent postal' treaty between the United States and Cuba is now in course of ne- gotiation and probably will be in opera- tion in a few weeks. The treaty is sub- stantially the same as the one now in force between this country and Canada, and practically continues the system in vogue between the Washington and Ha- vana administrations singe the American regime in Havana began. This puts the’| relations of the United States and the Cu- ban governments on a domestic postal system basis. —_——— Women to Remain in the Service.

Special Disj REDDING, March 27.—The most excit- ing conflict between strikers, deputies and laborers that has occurred at Keswick Station since the beginning of the strike | after the | teh to The Call. depot at Keswick. That there was | no one killed or injured is due to the diligence and earnestness of the little band of deputles that took part in the general | melee. As a result of the fight seventeen of the strikers are in the county jail. A party of twenty laborers composed chiefly of Italians and Mexicans were on | the train. Their destination was Keswick and they intended to gc to work for the Mountain Copper Company.

The sults were filed by Frederic S. Nave, United States Attorney for Arizona, and are based on the same provision of the United States laws, by which President Roosevelt has been ordering the fences on public lands torn down. The cattle men made defendants in the cases are all prominent in Santa Cruz Cpunty J. E. Wise of Calabasas has 10,000 acres fenced in, Joseph Piscarski of the same place, Alonzo Noon of Nogales and Dan A nford of San Ford, the other de- ants have each fenced in about 5000 acres. It is not known whether the United States Attorney filed the sults acting under instruction from Washing- in safety to the depot. Two strikers, for- eigners, also boarded the train here. The gang of strikers at the Keswick station knew of the coming of the laborers and | as the men alighted from the cars the strikers, armed with clubs, made a rush | and attempted by sheer force to compel the laborers to again take to the cars. The two deputies In the car were as- | sisted by ten at the station and riot was | in the air for a few moments. It was an | exciting time and every moment it was | expected there would be shooting and | bloodshed. After fighting for fully twenty minutes | the deputies succeeded in getting the la- borers from the Sowthern Pacific- track to the Mountain Copper Company train | and the men are now at work in and | about the smelter. Sheriff Richardson | and District Attorney Dozier went to Kes- wick this afternoon to investigate the af- fair. Seventeen of the strikers were ar- rested on a_charge of riot and were brought to Redding to-night and lodged | in the county jail.

TUCSON, Ariz., March 27.—A second at- tempt to rob the postoffice at Safford, Ariz., was made on Wednesday night. Two masked men broke open the rear door of the postoffice agl proceeded to bore a hole in the combination of \the safe. Just as they were about to blow open the safe their presence was discov- ered by the postmistress, who lived next dcor. She secured a six-shooter and en- tered the building. The burglars then door and mounting their horses rode away. Two Indians who were immediate- Iy put on the trail followed them to a point above Layton, where they stopped for the night, and were captured by the redskins. They were brought back to Safford, where they are held on the charge of robbing the United States malls. The prisoners are both bad men and have been in trouble before, buing well known in the Blue River country. e TR Will Name Flint for Postmaster. LOS ANGELES, March 27.—The Herald to-day says: ‘“Motley H.

TROUBLE IS BREWING AT MENDOCINO'S HOSPITAL Steward Niles Refuses to Resign and Is Summarily Dismissed by the Superintendent. UKIAH, March 27.—All is not smeoth sailing at the Mendocino State Hospital. For some time past Dr. E. W. King, the medical superintendent, has been dissat- isfied with the conduct of Ed Niles, the steward of the institution. The former steward, G. W. Jones, was summarily removed to make™a place for Niles at the instance of Governor Gage. Niles was a very busy Gage man up to the time of the last Republican convention. Dr. King did but little talking, but was understood to be in favor of another gubernatorial aspirant. Their differences, which it is fair. to presume were not altogether po- litical, culminated yesterday in a request on the part of Dr. King for Niles' resig- nation. Niles refused to resign, and Dr. King discharged him on the spot and de- manded his keys. Niles surrendered the keys and took the train for San Fran- cisco, presumably to consult with some of the board of managers. The charges against Niles are insubore dination and dereliction of duty, and un= less he resigns in the meantime they will be pressed against him at the next meel- ing of the board of managers.
