Washington Valentina, of New York,
appears to be having serious trouble
In securing a confirmation of his lease
of the Honduras Railroad, which he
effected with President Davtlla during

It seems that the statesmen of Hon

withheld Its approval, taking the po
sition that the President had no right
to enter Into the agreement under the
laws of he country.
Valentine Is undsrstood to have ad
vanced the Government quite a large
stim of money at the time the road was
turned oer to him. In order to enable
the Government to meet certain emer

Unless the) Valentine contract Is af

made whereby private parties can un
