ney refused to discuss the matter , saying that
ho could hot do so until ho had further con-
suIted his superiors. Duslamente was rounll
after much difculy hIding under tim coal
hunkers. Though hI knew ice was golug to
his denthi whel ho left the steamer , ho never
uttered a reproach. He dEclarcd that ho
should remain Ezc.ta'a frIend to the last.
The steamer company halt 10 other re-
eOl'rse than to turn over Bustamente , for war-
rants charging him with crime were pe
senled and the govcrnment or Salvador , one
1f thc countries which gives a subsidy 10 the
Pacific Mail company , made a formal dem3II
for his surrendce' .
ConcernIng the fact that a consular agent 01
the United States was on the steamer when
Bustlmenlo was formaly @elzcd there Is little
to say The consular agent was : lr , Cooper ,
