Washi.voton Miyr 11. Flvo Central
American republics will join In a com-
mercial boycott of Great ltrltaln ac-
cording to information received hero
through diplomatic channols. This is
one result of tho recent bulldozing of
Nicaragua. Representatives of tho
Central American republics In this city
while possessing no official Information
ns to tho proposed boycott are never-
theless of tho opinion that a commer-
cial alliance will result from the recent
International complications. Tho ro
suit cannot fall to bu of great benefit to
citizens of the United Statos engaged in
competing for cpntrol of tho Central
American markets. Tho business
transaction between tho flvo republics
of Central America and tho outside

covers every branch of Industry. Tho
United States and Great ltrltaln have
heretofore been close rlvnls for a divi-
slou of this trade with Germany not

Its being steadily and materially aug-
mented. A dm. Meade's Retirement.
Washington May 11. Probably tho
most Interesting nows of tho day
is tho coming retirement of Rear
Admiral Meade of tho navy. Ho has
just been detached from tho command
of tho North Atlantic squadron at his
own request nnd has now applied for
retirement next month. Adm. Meade's
retirement is wholly voluntary nnd
comes to him under that clause of tho
naval law which permits retirement
after forty years of service. It is
true that his health has for sev-
eral years been unsatisfactory tho
wounds which ho received dur-
ing tho civil war giving Itlm a
great deal of trouble but his relations
to tho navy dopartment during his
command of tho squadron of less than
a year's duration havo been very un-
pleasant and are no doubt tho pre-
eminent causes pf his voluntary retire-
ment. To these wounds his friends
attributo his great excitability and
nervousness which have kept him con-
tinually in hot water with tho navy
department since he was placed In com-
mand of the homo fleet last August a
mouth beforo ha was promoted to tho
highest naval rink.

rant In favor of Charles Hull for 575

as stated to him by tho reporter ho
would not order a warrant. Ho said
tho vouchers signed by tho governor
plainly showed that thoy wero for
services rondorod by Brlstow and Hull
before ho (Morrill) was governor and
that such being tho case there was no
falso pretense In tho transaction nnd
