MANAGUA , Nicaragua , Sept. 17.-Presld nt
Zelaya of Nicaragua has just ' appointed General -
eral Santago Calejas , his present mlnIter of ,
the trea8ury and acting minister of the Interior -
tenor , to go to luefe1ls , Hama enl other
Atlantic poilts of Nicaragua with full power
ti Inorce , I he cal , such order and decres
os he may nn,1 , neceSRry In an effort to try
to regulate RtstactorlY , to the government
of Nicaragua the political , nnanclal ! and
Judicial systems there. In other words an at-
ten'pt to cause the people on the easter
coast of Nicaragua , who all have grown up
under a civi and criminal Jurisprudence
copied or , moeled by one of their former
"suprcme court Judges , " Judge Jackson ,
from the New York state code , to adopt cud
comply with the unimproved Spanish laws
and Napoleonic code that has been used ,
abused and evaded . as conditions suited , by
the lethargic western Nicaraguans for many
years past.
President Zelaya oC Nlargua hu Issued a
decree granting free transportation of corn , !
rice , plalntnlns and vegetables over the
national railroads In an effort to reduce the
prevaing high prIces In western Nicaragua
of articles of food. The long continued , unseasonable -
seasonable dry weather has largely decreased
the crop the demand for labor and the wages
to all kinds of laborers Consequently a
majorIty or the middle and lower class ,
which constitute about 80 per cent of the en-
tire population of about 3GO.000 Nicaraguans ,
are reduced to living In the closest economy
I on such will fruits and berrIes as they can

they can buy from day to day with their
small earnings.
The coffee plantations of the district of
volcanic formed sols , the largest cofeo producing .
duclng area In this country , Is not expected
to yield this year over one-half of an average
crop , and wi require not one-half the num-
her or laborer usualy employed to gather
through the three months when ripened , and
then the competition of the unorganized
laborers wi reduce most l'robably ' their
heretofore very low prices paid for this worl
The season Is too dry to clear more lands
, f and plant more coffee trees. Thus the pros-
pects arc that the present striened condi-
ton of the laboring classes wi become more

The E Pueblo , a governmlnt subsIdized
daily In the city of Managua , announces the
discovery of "Trlchlnla apirails" In quantities -
ties ot the fresh pork sold In the cites In
wester Nicaragua. This Is not surprIsing
In view of the fact that hogs like buzzards
are permitted as scavenger In the streets
and In many of _ , tho'iiouses . and yards
of those cities. The EI Pueblo cantons the
people against the too free use of hog meat

who have been ; arrested In connection with
the riots since Monday.
Tie ambassadors of the power held a con-
ferenco today and drew up a collective note ,
which will lIe Ilreente 1 to the Porte tomor- I
row. Afterwards Ihey went to the Porte per-I
sonaly and made verbal representations on I

war which are acting as guardship have !
been ordered to moor In the harbor fur the I
winter , In order to Ilroicct . foreigners In case ,
of need. !
Sir Phip Currie has asked leave of the '

and aPPEal for hcll to the snltau of Morocco ,
the ameer of Afghanistan , the Ihedlve of
Egypt , all the shah of l'ersla.
"The Christian world , " he said "Is per-

great expense "

say In part :
\Vhercas. The Turkish government seems
dpI'rmlnell to solve the Armenian queston
by extermination . anti
\'hel'as. The gUlopean powers have not
been determined enough In their efforts to
make tii . , Porte put In force the proposed
reforms : therefore be It
nettolved That we express our sympathY
for the revolutionary measures anti con-
shIer the atrocities In Constantinople as a
signal for a general uprising throiihout the
Turkish emptro anti although the deaths
anti tortures In Turkish prisons thal have

WAShINGTON , Oct. G.-The government
has taken steps to test the Bannock Indians'
right 'under theIr treaty to bunt on unoc-
cupIed public lands In the state of WyomIng ,
the governor of Wyoming , the secretary of
the interior and the attorney general havIng
agreed to submit ( lie questions to the courts
for determInation. To establish a basis for
a test case , Indian Agent Teter at Fort Hal
reservatIon , with two Dannock Indians went
upon unoccupied government lands In
II Wyo-
ming to hunt , and , according to the require-
monte ot the test t1i . Indlns wprn nrnmntv

were charged with vIolations of Ihe game
Jaws of the state In further pursuance of
the agreement , Attorney General Harmon to-
day telegraphed the United States district
attorney to apply at once for a wrIt of habeas
corpus for thl release or the prisoners Thus
the question will be squarely brought before
the court. I Is the contention of the govern.
gover.
mont that the tr. ' aty of July 3 , 18G8. with
these Indians secures to them the right to
hunt upon unoccupied government lands In
the state of Wyomln . anti that this treaty
Is SUIJerior to the laws enacted by the state

Its guidance and government In the hands
ot the undersigned for the ensuing two
underslgnel
years. The purpose ot the alliance has oh-
really been proclaimed-to obtain the com-
pIe to Independence or Ireland from England
by any means clnslstent with the laws of
nations . Organizations . like governmetits .
have to depend upon their venue for the
successful accomplishment of their ohjects.
"The sInews ot war" for both are absolutely
-ecessar ) ' . both for organization and proIJt-
gatlon. England the arch-enemy or Ire-
aton has at her disposal Immcnse re-
sources-tho accumulation or centuries of
conquest and piracy. She has It In her
power to control or mould public opinIon
In her own Interests. Even In free America
she possesses hat power to an astounding
extent. Her stile 0 rower Irish question has
filled the American mind for a quarter or n
century , ever since Ireland's friends at
home and abroad committed lie costly
fault of ( rusting to Parliamentary agia-
raul ton to achieve the liberty of their molher-
tand.
Now however , a totally different policy
has been tnaugurated. The absolute claim
or Ireland to a distinct national life has
been placed forcibly before the world by the
unanimous voice ot the reeen IrIsh national
congress held In Chicago. Provincialism has
been cast aside antI the national demand of
Ireland . which slumbered hut did not die , ts
again In the ascendant. We are determined
that It shall so remain antI that no effort
ot ours no sacrIfice on our part wl he
left untried or unperformed until victor
crowns our sacred cause. \Ve appeal , there-
fore to all friends of the Indeplllencc of
Irllnnll to ail us tn this good work Iy rlnc-
lag at our dlpposal the means required for
its accomplishment. You arc asked to sub-
