Iirttlah minister, to extend a annum
pardon to Jlr. Hatch, and that 1* one
cf die real causes of Oreat .Britain’s
t resent -attitude. Mri Hatch owned
p-operty at BluetlWds, wnieli was cun-
Itscated. The question of the right of
Mc.ir.igua to refuse to recognise Mr.
Hatch as a British consular ofllctal is
also said to be Involved. For several
»■>*« pfltclats of the state department
f ive been aware of the serious turn
the Hunch aftalr had taken, auH it is
known that Mlnlater Baker was un
der Instructions to exercise his good

meanwhile to gTvc en Implied guaran
tee that Mr. Hatth would 1 not be nctlve
In further conspiracies to restore tho
ruic of young Clarence. The United
Hate* could well undertake this re
sponsibility on account of the interest
she hid to take In securing the sue-
ceeeful accomplishment of Gen. Bar
rios' mission In England, which could
hot fall to result In giving the United
State* an Incontestable title to any In-
oceanft:' canal that might bo built over
the bake Nicaragua route.
It Is probable that with the appearance
of I he Columbia and the British warships
at niueflelds the Nl -araguan government
sill be Impressed with the advantage
that would accrue from Implicitly follow
ing Secretary Greshams' advice and that
Mr. Hitch will be promptly Included In
the terms of amnesty which were granted
to latmpton and NVIltbank. Those Ameri
cans, It Is known, were pardoned only
at the peremptory lnslstance of Secretary
Gresham, who demanded that tho sum
mer, proceeding* wh,vb characterised
their arrest and banishment should be
followed by a fair trial and what had
been done without duo process of law
should be accomplished in a deliberate
legal way. The request that similar Jus
tice be done in the caee of Mr. Hatch, U
h understood, was ignored by Nicara
gua, and Oreat Britain haa resented tho
apparent discrimination. Secretary Gres-
b-eu is comment that serious trouble wilt
be avoided.
Nevertheless, the United Stales hue
been preparing for emergencies. It Is
stated that Admiral Walker. Hince his re
turn from Hawaii, haa been constantly
