Barranca by the Nlcamguan (iovoin

After the capture cf tho Kirrnticn yes
terday morning the NlcaiuRunn Govein
ment troops, to the number f mote tliwi
2,000, took possei-sion of it. A pan if
the Government force, pursued the llceing
rebels. The Americans, howuver, did
not join in the pursuit.
When the Darranca was captured
neither Gen. Zeledon nor nny of his chief
oflicrrs was to bo found. Quito by acci
dent a body of Government cavalr re
turning from Jinotope, where they had
Just defeated another rebel force, met
Zeledon and his staff and other officers
to the number of twenty-five, h"twcen
Jlnote and Granada. Xeledon and his
party had evidently not waited for Houth
erland to attack tho liarranca, had left
their command to light by themselves
and were making toward the Costa Ktcan
border as fast as their horses could carry
them. In the skirmish that followed Gen
Zeledon was wounded and died within
un hour. Tho ret-t of his party were
either shot or taken prisoners by the
Government troops.
The death of Gen. Zeledon and the vol
untary exilo of Gen. Mena, who started
the present trouble in Nicaragua, leaves
only Juan Irias, a Costa Itican exile and
a well known revolutionist, still in the
field in Nicaragua. Admiral Southerland
already has reported that a force of
1,100 men, consisting of tho first and
Hucoml battalions of marines ami the
bluejacket companies from the California
and tho Colorado, will advance upon I.eon
nt once. I.ieut.-Col. I.ong of the Marine
Corps will command.
At I'on Irias is practising the same
methods as used by Mena and Xeledou.
He is interfering with railroud communi
cation between Managua and Corinto,
ha confiscated the food mpplies of tho
town, imprisoning tho.e favorable to tho
Government and excrclsim; the ineatesc,
cruelties upon his prisoners Appeals lor
lielp and relief have been received at the
American legation from mhubl''inu of
I.eon, including many residents of foreign
citizenship. Irias will be called tion lo
evaciuto tils position or be driven out by
the American forces. It is believed he
will (leu rather than face the overwhelm
ing lorco of Americans whkh Col I,ong
will have.
'ihrt clearing of Hin wav lo Mnsaya for
icllef measures and the opening tip of
Leon will finish tho revolution. Inas's
force has already been defeated by the
Government troops and is reported to
have dwindled to a mere handful. All
lines of communication in Nicaragua will
then le open and the pi iucipal task of lliu
Americans in Mcsrugua will be ended
Irias was exiled in Costa lllcii and the
Gosla t'.lcun Government wii" pledged to
keep him under surveillance in order
i hat he might not join the Menu revolt
in Nicaragua, lie eluded Ills watchcis,

The candidate was met at Cornwall,
five miles below here by Dr I,yman Abbott
and his sons Ijiwrencn and Ernest. Mr.
Straus hurried down the steps from the
car platform as soon as he had finished
speaking to .1tl ersons and grasped Dr.
Abbott's two hands.
"I was with T J. this morning; he made
a great showing in Washington," were
almost tho first words the Outlook editor
had to say to the candidate.
Mr, Straus spoke of his satisfaction
with the result of his week's campaigning,
and Dr. Abbott replied:
yes. the people are at last beginning
to understand the Progressive move
ment." Miss Alice R. ReHamy, the first woman
to be named on a committee at the Syra
cuse convention and who was known there
as "Tho Prettiest Delegate," boarded
tho campaigning special at Kingston
in the morning and was thereafter the
centre of attraction In the candidate's
party. She brought with her a special
silk campaign banner which she had made
in one day and which bore the legend
"The Progressive Party of Ulster County."
With her came her flancA Capt. Lucius
C. Tuckorman, Progressive county chair
man in Ulster. Miss Pollamy herself
admitted that she was engaged to the
captain, but declared that she was too
busy working for the Progressive cause
to think of getting married.

The candidate spoke feelingly to 1,200
Kingston folk at noon of evidence of.
intimidation of voters by the bosses,
which he said he had noticed in his travels
throughout the State. He said:

It is here, but In several sections of the
