UNHAPPY NICARAGUA IS MENACED BY WEYLERISM WASHINGTON, July 20.—A repeti tion of the Weyler reconcentrado sys tem in Cuba, that caused widespread criticism just before the opening of the war with Spain, has been inau gurated in Nicaragua by the govern ment authorities, according to advices to the state department today. Prob ably 5000 people in the vicinity of the city of Granada are ordered to con centrate at Uranada under an order is sued by Sebastian Salinas, the polit ical chief and commandant of the forces of the department of Granada, Nicaragua. . This order, published in the Com mercio, a Managua newspaper, and transmitted to the state department here, reads as follows, translated: 1. "Within twenty-four hours from the present moment al! the inhabitants of the Mombaeho Ridge shall assemble at Granada, without distinction of sex or ago. 2. Persons not complying with this regulation shall be treated as revolutionists and dealt with as such. According to the view here, this order would give the Granada military regime sufficient pretext to go up into the Mombaeho RHlge, where a recent spontaneous revolt was put down, and shoot or kill any one who refused to obey the concentration edict. It Is regarded here as obvious that the Madriz government la spending money to control certain Central American newspapers. This belief was expressed today by officials. The United Slates delegation to the Pan-American conference at Buenos Ayres, Argentine Republic, was due to arrive at Its destination today, and contemporaneously a newspaper reached here containing a threat of a Latin-American coalition to counter balance this government's influence at the coming conference. The editorial was In a Managua paper and was quoted from the Informaca of San Jose, Costa Rica. So far the state department has re ceived no official indication of any such movement, according to statements to day, but expressions have been re ceived at the department through the Venezuelan legation here as well as the American legation at Caracas In dicating official concern and annoyance over remarks adverse to this govern ment's attitude attributed to the Ven ezuelan delegation to the conference. The official view here is that there would be no justification for airing the United States-Nicaragua case in the coming conference, any more than there would be in threshing over tha Peru-Ecuador boundary dispute.

BACK TO THE FARM IS BECOMING A REALITY Chief Powderly Notes Increasing Tendency of Immigrants WASHINGTON, July 20.—Terence V. Powderly, chief of the division of in formation of the department of com merce and labor, says: "There is now a let up in the de mand for men for work on the rail roads, on construction and the like, but the demand for farm labor is on the increase. "When we began this bureau two and a half years ago," said Mr. Pow derly, "wo heard a great deal of the en', 'Back to the farm!' But most of the men who were talking about going back to the farm did not go. They had never been on the farm, in the first place. "Today a change has taken place. I returned last night from Now York. Mr. Green, who is in charge of the station there, says the interest of aliens and of immigrants already in this country in farm work is increas ing. Men on construction work and other work in the city are registering in the hope of being sent to the farms. "Immigration is brought about largely by the fact that people here write home to their friends and advise them to come. In the past letters sent to Europe have been from men working in the mines or from men In the crUea. But the division of Infor mation has boon sending aliens to tlif farms in large numbers in the last two yours and a half." No fewer than 8000 persons have boon sent to-permanent positions on farms. Of these only twenty have failed to stay. Those who have gone to the farms havo been writing to their friends abroad or to their friend! em ployed in the cities, and the result is a gradually growing tendency to go to the land. The demand for farm work comes from all over the country.
