' : ' ' ' ' ' '. ' NJCARAGUA MAKES PROTEST. American Minister Interfering in Cen J : tral American War. ! WasjUngton'Aptil ' .3V Mr. Corea, the Nicaragua Minister, called atvthe State Department today: and inoiuired as to 'hat authority PhlHp I. Brown, secretary of the American LegatIon to Gutamala and Honduras,' had for his interference with the bombardment of Amapala, Honduras, by the Nicaragua forces.' Mr. Corea's advices" from his home, government show that - Mr. Brown went to Amapala by. the cour tesy of the Nicaraguan officers,! assur ing . them that he hoped to , persuade President Bonilla, of Honduras, to sur render, thus ending the" bombardment of th.e city. The Ntcaraguams consent ed to cease firing for twenty-four hours. Before that time, Mr.' Brown I w cut. tu -i ia, j uiuu, ou v auui , auu u jtbere he directed a protest on behalf J of Salvador against the renewal oi the bombardment of Amapala, saying that Salvador would regard such ac tion as a declaration of war, by Nicara gua against HJhe Salvadorean ' republic. It Is the desire of thev Nicaraguan government to learn by what right Mr. Brown is acting , for' Salvador. Such -interference co ihtf part Is a radical step and all Central American republics .are much -interested' in the outcome. State Department officials? have re - fused to disclose what Mr. Brown's in structions lhave been. ' President Bonilla 4s still surrounded at' Amapala so far as the State De partment knows, but the bombardment of the town by Nicaraguan gunboats has ceased, according to dispatches re ceived . today from Philip I. Brown, secretary-to the American legation to GuatajoyUa aridHonduras ' The united States cruiser Chicago and the : gunboat Princeton are both known to he lying near .the1 Islamd on which Amapala Is situated and the presence of. these two American war ships Js supposed to be largely, respon sible for the halt. in the bombardment.

SNIPES TRIAL BEGUN vf --v ; (Cpijftinlied from flrst,page.) Officer C;VT.,' Croom : as he ;ran from the house. Officer Croom testinea taat as SnlDes 'ran'fromithe :house, "he in pursuit, -that Snipes turned on him. and fired back at Him. - as oniy one ball .was missing from his revolver later.lrer could, not' have fired the shot ini'the ;house "and at - Croom In the street.V This it Is certain, ;will be a strong.1 point )tOi be developed :by the attorneys for. the' defence But, strange to say, ; the vplstol taken - from Snipes is not now able, to. be locate'd,' There are1! a r number, ' however, who ; testify What- they ; saw the; revolver, Immedi ately after the shooting, and: that only one cartridge in the cylirider had been fired. From the fact that Snipes was wounded ; - from ' .the " front Officer Croom's story of Snipes' having fired upon "him in the street is substanti ated, in which event he could not have fired from his own pistol into Williams in , the chouse, Officer Croom says that he fired three times' at Snipe3 in the street and three cartridges ,were missing from his revolver when It was taken the night of the shooting. These are ' points to , which the defence - was cledrly leading up to yesterday after noon. V ' ' ' ;' J. J.'Watters, the young man sum moned by the defence from' Pender county, is riot a boyhood friend of the defendant, as was erroneously., stated In the papeT' yesterday; in fact young Snipes had, known him only eight days. Furthermore, the family is not from Pender county, but from Ander son, S. C. He has been livlng withhls mother, brother , and sisters in this city for eight or ten - years. "His f fa ther died In Wilmington- shortly after removing, here some years ago. Mr. Watters, it Js-said, .'-will be an impor tant witness for the defence. The taking of testimony will be resumed-immediately on the convening of court this morning. Former Officer C. T.vCToom, who was in the house at the time of the shooting, will be the main witness for the State, and every effort possible will be made by the defence to discredit his testimony. .' Before the calling of the Snipes case yesterday the following matters were disposed of: nenry Myers, colored, carrying con cealed weapons; pleaded guilty; four months on the roads. Annie-, Blocker, " Hannah ' Blocker, Missouri Pollock and- John Henry, as sault -with a deadly, weapon; verdict of , guilty as tor Annie Blocker and Hannah Blocker; not guilty as to the others. v Charles Wilson, housebreaking and larceny;' three years on public roads. The grand jury during the day re turned true bills in the county prima ry election complications against Reg istrar C. T. Smaw, in the Second ward, andv Messrs. C. H. Ieen ad J.VH. Hewlett, who were . present in the count in. the Fourth Ward where it was alleged more ballots . were found in the box thaii there were, ballots cast. ... The . violation. In the.- Second Ward at'leastjs technical! one; and was over the registration . of the name of Mr. G. J. Boney, whose name.' was placed .on the books after the -hour ; of closing, a mistake having been made before In 'telling -him that "-his - name was on the book, when, -'as a matter of fact, it was not, or at least couldmot be found. .These cases will come up. afc the next term; perhaps, and are not expected to amount to much.
