One diplomat thus summed up the '•ituation today . "If actual war is not proclaimed by night v e can hope for the best. I.ven . if war is declared there will still be a chance, but a slight one. The powers may have influence enough to prevent hostilities it they act in unison."

WASHINGTON. Oct. s.—That the long expected battle between American marines and Nicaraguan rebels was fought yesterday at Barranca hill was the information received at the state department today in a cablegram from Minister Weitzel, at Managua. This stated that American marines charged up Barranca hill and dislodged the forces of General Zeledon, the rebel leader, which were intrenched at that point. The minister reported that several Ameiican marines were killed and that General Zeledon had been fatally wotunded. The battle lasted for 37 minuses and was fiercely fought. An earlier dispatch received by Min ister Castrillo, of Nicaragua, from the minister of foreign affairs at Managua, stated that four American marines had i been killed and six wounded in the fighting. Barranca hill is located near the town of Coyotepa, which was afterward occupied by the American forces. Rebels Ordered to Vacate. Previous dispatches to the state de partment said that the American com mander in Nicaragua, Admiral South erland. had given General Zeledon 24 hours" notice to vacate Barranca hill and allow the passage of the American forces. The time limit of this ulti matum expired at 10 a. m. yesterday, but nothing had been heard as to the outcome until the receipt of today's dispatches. A later cablegram to the Nicaraguan legation here says that 100 Nicaraguan government troops were killed and 200 wounded. General Zeledon was fatally wounded and captured eight miles from Masaya, while retreating from Barranca hill, and died shortly afterward. Rapid Fire Guns Effective. Tile use of rapid fire guns on both sides of the hill is supposed to have done fearful execution among the reb els at the top. According to the re ports received, the marines opened up yvith their rapid fire guns for fifteen minutes and during that time silenced the fire of the rebels. Five hundred men were stationed on one side and 400 opposite them. The reports state that the marines soon got the range of the intrenchments and swept the hill with a terrific cross fire. There was no opposition of a serious nature when the charge up the hill was i begun. “The Kind That Mother Makes” |BAK-£NGPOWDER. makes the lightest, most wholesome and delicious biscuits, cakes and pastry.
