Nr:w VoitK, Feb. 7. A letter dated
San Jose, Costa Kica, a week ago, states
that there will soon be a revolution in
Nicaragua, and asserting that CostaKica
is backing the movement, says the Pan
ama correpondunt of thu Herald. The
revolution in Nicaragua will be a great
setback to the work of thu United States
canal commission. Nicaragua exiles in
this city aro jubilant at the outbreak,
and piudict that Prusident Zelaya, al
though successful in crushing in his four
years of ollicu many revolutions, will
have to fall.
Tnis movement is a result of a fusion
of the couieivativo party with the dis
sident conservative element. It ie
learned here that Dr. Adams Cardeuas,
who was president of N'iearagua from
1SS3 to 1887, Is at the head of a band
which invaded Sun Juan del Hur from
thu Costa Rica frontier. Thu junta re
fuses at present to discloso jts plans, but
says that thu rebels are well supplied
with arms and money. Members of thu
junta will probably leave hero for Sal
vador on February 10th.
Even this country is favorable to thu
catiee of thu rubels. A largu number of
Nicaragua exiles .'n Salvador are ready
to join thu revolution. Honduras in
return for Nicaragua's aid in putting
down the Puerto Cortez uprising, head
ed by Enrique Solo, recently, will sup
port President Zelaya, but he ie not
expected to get auy comfort from Salvador.
