Arrival of American Marines
Restores Confidence in
Nicaraguan Capital.
MANY CITIZENS KILLED
Women and Children Among Victims
or Battle Fury Government Is
nesting, Making Xo Effort
to Pursue Enemy.
MANAGUA. Friday. Aug. 16. (De
layed In Transmission.) In the four
days' battle bteween Insurgents under
Generals Mena and Zeledon and gov
ernment troops commanded by General
Emilio Chamorro for the possession of
Managua. the Nicaraguan capital,
which began with a bombardment on
Sunday and ended In a victory for the
defenders, the government forces lost
14 men killed and 125 wounded. The
Insurgent casualties are estimated at
between 400 and 500 men killed or
wounded.
In addition several non-combatants.
Including women and children, lost
their lives. The hospitals are filled
with wounded. Many citizens who were
wounded by the bursting missiles have
since died in the Improvised In
firmaries. Marines Restore Confidence.
. The battle ended Wednesday night,
when, after a brief repulse, the rebels
retired in some disorder to Massayu,
capital of a department of the same
name to the south of Managua. The
government has made no effort to pur
sue the Insurgents and is allowing Its
forces to recuperate.
The battalion composed of three com
panies of American marines, under
command of Major Sraedley I). Butler,
which arrived here Thursday by way
of Corlnto to reinforce the smaller de
tachment of American bluejackets,
landed previously to protetct the lives
and property of Americans, was tho
cause of great relief to the Nicaraguan
government and to Americans and
other foreign residents aa well as to
citiiens.
The situation at the capital on Tues
day and Wednesday was horrible, and
the arrival of American reinforcements
ra.rnrDyi cnnnnVnce and turned the
despondency of the populace into re
joicing. Inhabitants In Panic.
Inhabitants of the town were In a
veritable nervous panic Wednesday fol
lowing the desperate attack made by
the insurgents Tuesday and early
Wednesday morning, when they nearly
broke through the line of government
troops, the dread of the natives being
increased by the hall of shells with
which the rebels showered the city all
Tuesday and all day Wednesday. Two
thousand or more of the population
fled, as many as possible to the trains,
the poorer class taking to the .fields
north of the town out of range of the
bursting missiles.
During the bombardment shells
struck the residence of an American
official and the building in which are
the offices of an American commercial
company, and also penetrated the,
dwelling of the British Vice-Consul,
Albert J. Martin, and the offices of an
English banking concern. The occu
pants of these structures were not ln
1 ired, though their escape was almost
miraculous.
All the Americans and other foreign
residents of the city are safe. The
Americans In charge of the customs
house, railroads and banks remained
at their posts while the fighting was
in progress.
The uprising yesterday of Liberals in
Leon, a department to the north of
Managua, has been suppressed.

LOS ANGELES. Aug. 17. (Special.)
Nat Goodwin is resting easy at his
home today. Drs. Alderson and Thom
as, who are attending him, say that
his Injuries consist of a severe back
strain, shock and bruises, the latter
chiefly on the back, abdomen and right
leg. No Internal injuries have devel
oped, as was at first feared, and none
are expected. The physicians say that
without unforeseen complications he
will be able to walk about In three or
four weeks. It will probably be neces
sary, however, to cancel his engage
ments In local playhouses which were
to have commenced shortly.
Miss Marjorie Moreland. formerly the
actor's leading woman and his compan
ion on the trip on which he was hurt.
Is almost constantly with him. She in
sists on maintaining her vigil in spite

from this county to the state conven

part of those who opposed Taft before
the primaries, and who threatened to
, v. a nAmnpmtfe nominee if
Taft were nominated, to get back into
the Republican tola, aiany 01 mcc
persons favor Roosevelt, but as one
man remarked today: "A vote for
Roosevelt merely strengthens Wilson,
and we are not ready for a Democratic
President yet.
The candidates for county and dis
trict offices nominated at the recent
Republican primaries have expressed

they were chosen to represent, and ev
ery one of them will remain regular.
