THE SITUATION VERY GRAVE Corinto Declared a. Closed Port, and Uncle Sam May Be Drawn Into the Fight’ Against His “fill—The Clay- ton-Bulwer Treaty. MANAGUA, Nicaragua, “April BEL—Pres- ident Zelaya of Nicaragua has sent out the following protest against the summary action of Great Britain in enforcing her demands for an indemnity: ” “Nicaragua. protests before all nations against the outrage which Great Britain inflicts upon her by the military occupa- tion of the port of Corinto in order to seize from her by force a sum of money which is not owed, in absolute disregard of inter- national laws and of the dictates of right, justice and equity. “Nicaragua. although counting upon the sympathy of all, as she is powerless to oppose the aggressor, is ready to submit the case without fear, bewailing her small- ness and her weakness. ZELAYA. ” Bombardment Expected. COLON, April ESL—The Nicaraguan gov- ernment. in view of the occupation of Co- rinto by the British, has decreed the clos- ing of the port. On account of this the Panama Railroad company has issued n0- tice to the agents of tho'various steamship lines whose vessels run to the isthmus, notifying them of the closure of Corinto, in order that they may take the necessary action as to freight and passengers on route for that port. Information from Corinto is that the British warships have been so stationedas to be ready to bombard the town should the Nicaraguan force of 800 men, which retreated across the lagoon to the main- land on the occupation of. the place by the British. attempt to interfere with the move- ments of the landing part-y. _ Corinto is almost desert-ed, as its bom- bardment is generally expected. The situation at Corinto is now regard- ed as ominous of serious trouble, for the dispatches indicate that the Nicaraguans are disposed to resist any further advance by the British. Tho' informatiop reaching here is to the effect that tho Nicaraguans may further isolate the British at Corinto by burning the bridges across the lagoon separating the town from the mainland. The British position is said to be very bad from a. strategic standpoint. , The town is practically on an island, being separated from the mainland by a stretch of marshy ground. This is traversed by bridges. and without them Corinto is cut off from the shore. The Nicaraguans have retired to the shore end of the bridges, and those well informed on the ' situation believe that if the British make any move to cross the lagoon the bridges will be burned, and the little band of Nicaraguan troops will make a. stand against further progress. The British are evidently apprehensive of trouble on this score, as tho Royal Ar- thur, Wild Swan and Satellite have been so placed as to command the town with their guns. It is probable that this dis- position has been made so as to insure» the occupying forces from an attack by the Nicaraguans. THE SITUATION VERY SERIOUS. Uncle Sam May Be Drawn Into the Fight Against His \Vill. WASHINGTON, April 29.—The announce- ment from Colon of the closure of Corinto by the Nicaraguan government is exactly what was expected by the South American diplomatic representatives here, although it has taken the administration by sur- prise. The news. it was apparent, was not expected by the stato department, which had never believed that tho Nica- raguans would go to the length of permit- ting the occupation of Corinto in prefer- ence to paying the indemnity. That the only difficulty in the way of a speedy settlement of the trouble was that arising from trouble experienced by the Nicaraguan government in raising the money hastily, and that the British ad-_ miral would be indulgent on this point when once satisfied of the disposition of the Nicaraguans to comply with the terms of the ultimatum otherwise had never been doubted by the department. For this reason the first reports of the occupation of Corinto received at the departi‘nent from unofficial sources were discredited and doubficxprcssed as to their accuracy until Dr. Guzman. the Nicaraguan minister, communicated officiallyto Secretary Gresh- cm the news he had received by cable from Managua of the landing of the British at Corinto and the abandonment of the town by the 'Nicaraguans. The news from Nicaragua as interpreted here means that the Nicaraguan govern- ment, with an intention to circumvent the British, have withdrawn from Corinto the privileges of a port of entry, and no for sign goods can he landed there without violation of the laws of the country. It is expected that the entire business of the port will thus be transferred to San Juan Del Sur, a. port lying 100 miles south of Corinto. It is undeniable that this action by the Nicaraguans threatens to very seriously complicate an already delicate question. If the British can induce ships to dis- charge ut Corinto and pay to them the legal duties, the Nicaragnans will prob- ably refuse to permit those goods to'enter the interior, where the bulk of the con- suming population lives. If the British are thus prevented from collecting from customs a. sufficient sum of money to meet the indemnity demanded within the calculated period of time—in this case about 30 days—the result may be. If. they felt itmppcssary - to continue the onetipz'ttion of ‘Corinto for ' hard to foretell. an indefinite period, they would be guilty of violation of the assurances they have given our government. The only resort would appear to be an extension of the occupation to San Juan Del Sur or to any other Pacific port that may be opened in place of Cerinto, and this would probably be obnoxious to us as interfering with our trade at least, if for no other reason. It is feared that the affair is rapidly as- ' iuming more serious phases and is shap- lng itself up so that our government may be embroiled against its own desire. Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British em- bassddor, yesterday had a private consulta- tion with Secretary Gresham, and later Secretary of War Lamont was called into the conference. What they discussedor whether any conclusion was reached is, of course, ‘a‘ state secret, but attention is here called to the fact that the first paragraph of the Cleyton-Bulwor treaty _ expressly pledges Great Britain against any Occupa- ion of Nicaraguan territory.
