JOHN mediately organized and has proved himself to be a wise and just ruler. Published statecfents that "bowling mobs" were parading the streets of Managua, the capital, shouting "Death to Zelaya" appear to have no foundation in fact. Zelaya is not the man to tolerate demonstrations of that kind. He himself headed a revolution two years ago, which overthrew an obnoxious government in fifteen days. Within that time he fought three battles and captured the capital. He was chosen president by the constitutional convention which was im- In this manner Nicaragua was spared any appearance of humiliation and friction was avoided. Nicaragua will pay the indemnity in London within the two weeks stipulated and the remaining terms of the ultimatum will be satisfactorily arranged. The Nicaraguan people appear to thoroughly understand President Zelaya, who is a man of gTeat pluck and determination and they have approved his course in the matter. Zelaya a Just Rnler.

JAPAN AND THE POWERS Stated That She Will Concede Russia's Demands. Tho theological seminary question, which has beeii before the church for three years, will probably bo continued in its present 'condition undisturbed. Union seminary students and their relation to the Presbyteries will come up for discussion under a memorial from the New York presbytery. Such studentsat present come before the presbyteries asking for their care or for ordination. Although Union seminary is under a formal ban of the church the presbyteries have no rule to guide them when the question of endorsing these students comes up. So the assembly has been asked by overture to determine upon tha policy to be pursued by presbyteries in such cases. Briggs now unflef suspension, and the year for which this sentence runs expired shortly after the adjournment of thelast general assembly. During that year Dr. Briggs continued to occupy a position in the Union seminary, which can be held only by a regularly ordained Presbyterian minister, aud ho has repeatedly appeared in pulpits as a lecturer. Moraover, tho conservatives are of the opinion that Dr. Briggs intends to turn his baok on the Presbyterian church, and it ia their intention to make his humiliation complete before this event takes place. Other Questions oi Importance. Situation at Pocahontas.

Washington, May 6. — The Marine hospital service has just received a report relative to the outbreak of cholera atCamaran, the island in the Red sea where pilgrims crossing from India, Persia, Java, etc., to the Hejnz have to undergo ten or more dayB quarantine. Cholera broke out there March 24, and sinca then, up to the time this report was dispatched, there had been forty-nine cases, of which thirty-nine wero fatal. The fact is commented upon in this report that these pilgrims, among whom cholera broke out, arrived from liombay where, according to the official bulletins, cholera cases are very rare. Forty-nine Cases Reported of Which Twenty-nine Are Fatal. CHOLERA AT CAMARAN. The interminable Briggs case is one of the subjects to be passed upon. Then there is the relationship of the theological seminaries to the general assembly, which is a business question. But more important still is the future attitude of the Presbyterian church to the graduates of Union Theological seminary, involving the question of the fitness of men who have come under the influence of Dr. Briggs and his coterie to receive ordination to the Presbyterian ministry. Pittsburg is a conservative centse and on all thise questions the crowds which always fill the galleries during sessions of the general assembly will be in sympathy with the anti- Briggs faction. The first business of importance comes up on Thursday after the annual Bermon by retiring Moderator Mutchmore of Philadelphia, being the election of a moderator to succeed him. Business of the Assembly. Interest Pending. Pittsburg, May 0.—This week will see the last of the six hundred commissioners elected for the 107th general assembly of the Presbyterian church in the Uuited States of America, which will convene in the Third Presbyterian church on Thursday, May 16. Unusual prepar rations are being made for this event for the reason that this assembly marks the 25th anniversary of the reunion of the old school and new school churches which took place here with such ceremony in the year 1870. President Francis L. Patten of Princeton, is down on the programme for a public address on the subject of the reunion, and there will be other speakers of national reputation to follow him. But the greatest interest is in the probable business of the general assembly the deliberations of which will continue through three weeks.

They will have a candidate of their own for moderator. The plan is to advance Dr. Beeober, of Auburn, N. Y., but it is possible that Dr. Beecher will not attend. In that event the liberals will muster around Dr. George Alexander, of the University Place church, New York. D*. Alexander has been the head of the Brlggs party in New York for Ove years.

London, May 6. —Dispatches from Hong Kong say that the situation in Formosa is most serious. British and German marines have been landed at Anping to protect the foreigners, and British sailors and armed launches are patrolling Takau harbor. The black flags cause much anxiety. -They seldom have been more threatening in recent years. Considerable apprehension is felt in Hong Kong as regards the differences between Russia and Japan. Amicable Agreement Promised. The Standard's Berlin correspondent says: "Although Japan's first reply to the joint protest was unsatisfactory, the present state of the negotiations promises an amicable agreement. The details are secret, but it seems that Russia will be satisfied if she gets a large slice of southeast Manchuria, containing one or more ice-free harbors, while Japan will be content if she gets an island or more besides an increased indemnity. Should the Japanese war party persist in not altering the treaty, Premier Count I to probably will be sac rifled. The powers certainly will insure China's giving Japan an ample guarantee for the indemity granted in lien of territory. No Edict leaned. The Tlmee oorreepondent In Pekln says: "The fact that the emperor haa ratified the treaty is known only to a few persona No edict haa been toeued. Prinoe Kung urged the ratification, lfiu f Chlneee would hare preferred that the Japanese reach Pekia, aa the government then would have been compelled to Initiate reforma. Now there to small chanoa of any change tor the better." An Amicable Agreement Promised— Russia Will Be Satisfied with a Large Slice of Manchuria, While Japan Will Bo Contented *rith a Larger Indemnity. Paris, May 0 The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Temps says that Japan, in her reply to the joint protest, consented to abandon Liso Tong, excepting Port Arthur. The protesting powers have not reached an agreement regarding the reply, the correspondent asserts, and the exchanges of opinion continues. The European edition of the Herald learns from its Berlin correspondent that Russia has informed Germany she will declare war in case Japan insists upon the Shimonoseki treaty. Lost Control of Soldier* Tha Tlmee oorreepondent in Hong Kong confirms the reports of dtoturbanoe in Ponaosa. The governor saga the eeasion of the Island to the Japaneee would produce rebellion.
