KNOX DELAYS FUTURE MOyE Declares Different Phase of Matter Mould Be Taken if Grace and Cannon Really Tried to Blow Vp Ships. WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. The delay on the part of the United States In taking action with respect to the killing, by or der of President Zelaya, of Nicaragua, of two Americans, Groce and Cannon, it developed today, is occasioned by the ina bility of the Government to fix the exact status in Nicaragua of the slain men. It was explained that every effort was being made to determine whether the men were. In fact, members of th revolution ary army or whether they were acting on their own responsibility when they were captured. If It can be proved, as seems doubtful. that they were really responsible for placing mines to blow up troopships of the Nlcaraguan government and were act ing in this matter on their own responsi bility, their status would be different from what It would be were they act ing aa a part of the revolutionary forces. It is this point that the State Depart ment is trying to clear up before it takes any aggressive action against Zelaya. The American Vice-Consul at Managua has been Instructed to obtain all possible information. Until this Is received it Is doubtful if the United States will take any steps leading to the chastisement of Zmaya, beyond putting Itself In a post tlon to act promptly should occasion re Culre. It Is believed that plans for the con centration of warships and marines on the Nlcaraguan coast will continue and possibly this show of force will stimulate the energies of the revolutionists and re suit In large accessions to. their army from disaffected portions of the country now held by Zelaya.

He has held that office since 1906. and his term would expire in 1912; but it is more than likely he will lose his Job through the revolution now In progress under General Estrada and through the influence of the. United States. It has been reported in Navy circles that the United States was disposed to favor the revolutionists, though the origin of this rumor cannot be traced. It is not going to make General Zelaya's position any more secure that he has aroused the Government of the United States to bitter resentment by the killing of two Americans. General Zelaya has his official residence In Mana gua. There is also the training school for military cadets which is supposed to produce officers for the ragged army of the republic This army consists of 4000 men none too well drilled.
