rluu Trouble May Kullnw.
Managua, Nicaragua, Jan. 4. With
j little beating of drum or blowing of
trumpet, a warlike move upon the part
of the republio of Coluuiiba ia now bu-
licived to nave been checkmated by the
' republio of Nicaragua, although further
1 new from the objective poiul, Corn
ialand, ia anxioualy eijiected here.
I About a mouth ago tiie government
of Nicaragua waa Informed unofficially
that Colombia bad plinned to make a
lauding ou Coru ialuud, a valuable
trategio point aitu.itud about thirty
an mile off the MoauitJ coaat, bo
longing to Nicaragua, whoae fUg waa
to be hauled down aud the euaign of
Colombia ubtituted for it. It waa
alleged that Nicaragua waa overtaxing
Corn ialuud, aud that tbe inhabitant,
numbering a few hundred, bad appealed
to Colombia for redren, on the grouud
that territory aouiu five milea long,
which formerly belonged to Colombia,
i waa unlawfully held by Nicaragua.
, It waa further atatod that the pre ect
: ;if r-itu Andnz, Colombia, had aaaeiu
blud a military force, ami waa only
1 waiting for tho arrival of a Colombian
gunboat in order to embark troop and
to proceed to Corn inland and aeouro
aud fortify it agaiuat the poaaibility of
recapture. That auch a plan wai (In-
cuaaed there ia no reaaou to doubt, but
I'reaident Zelaya, of Nicaragua, took
prompt atep to meet thia move upou
the part of tho neighboring republio.
Very quietly detachment of Nicara-
guan troop were aaaemblcd here and
at (irannda, and when all wa ready
they were aeut iu amall partiea through
l.nko Nicaragua and down tbe Sail
.luuii river to (ircytown aud llluefluldi.
lly thia time tho loldiera of Nicaragua
are believed to bu in poaaeaaion of lilg
aud Little Cum island, for there aro
two of them, and tliu work of erecting
a lining fort should bo progressing,
Tbu troop took all tho beat gun avail
able, and a mpply of ammunition and
other aopplie. Storehouse aro to be
constructed at Coru island.
Of course, if tho Colombia expedition
started earlier thau expected inn)
reached Cor;: island before tho Nica
ragua troops, fiwhtliiir iniiv bavo oo-
curreil before thia, and, it ao, tho mat
ter may Lad to a general upheaval in
Central America, for Colombia waa
warned, diplomatically aud through
i llu) preaa, last luoiitn that Her eel.iiro
of Coru laland might lead to a warlike
combination of the republica ot Salva
dor and llonduraa in aupport of Nlca
I ragua against her. Colombia waa also
; advised, if alio still maintained that
: aim bad right over Corn island, to sub
I in 1 1 them to tho arbitratlou of a diaiu
i tcrcHtcd republio.
To thi'Mi threat! aud suggestions Hp
i patently no attention wa paid, for it
; wa announced tloit the Colombia gun
boat were being fitted out for tho
transporting of Colombian troop to
Corn island. It la hoped hero tlu.t
the Nicaragua force reached there in
advanco of the Colombiau detachments,
j Somo year ago, when work wa be
gluing ou the maritime canal, it wa
reported that Ureal llritniu waa con
i teinpliiting laying hand on Corn
. Island, which, situated at a convenient
distance fioni the Atluiilij entrance to
tbe canal, would have been ronverted
into another chain of Uritiab fottsotr
tbu American coast, mid would have
enabled her to bu practically m com
mand of tbu eastern entrance of the
waterway which is iu time to join tho
Atlantic and the Taenia. Therefore,
Nicaragua, acting upon the suggestion
of the president of the United States,
took possession of both llig und Little
Corn Islands, hoisting tho Nicaragua!!
Mag over thciu with much cercmonv,
and giving diplomatic notice of the
n.i in ii.
The Itiitish claim to Corn island ia
understood t bu bused on her former
pretension, amen given up, to a pro
tectorato over the Mosointo territory
and because Colombia, which originally
owned Corn island, ceded the island to
iviiiir itiioikie. i iii.il i i,i i.u-..
chieftain, under Hiitish auspice, of
the Mosquito reservation. Colombia,
however, insist that Corn island wa
only ceded to King (icorge ou llie con
dition that it was to be returned when
ever renin sted.

collector of customs at Jackouvillu
for a clearance to a Cuban port with a
tarjio of urins, but tho oath required
