OOftL I SHE WAS INDUCED TO GIVE TWO HEN HER MONEY. Half Million Dollar Claim Made They Were Arrested and the Money A dispatch from Managua, Nlca- raugua, says another rictory over the revolutionists has been announced by Gen. Toledo, the Nicaraguan Min ister of War. The announcement v»*e based on an official dispatch re ceived from Oen. Rivas, in command of the Government forces, who en- g-ged the revolutionists under Gen CUamorro at Tisma, which is twelve miles from Masua. General Toledo alto made known the fact that the losses on both sides had been very heavy, and that the battle had last ed seven hours, resulting In the bloodiest lighting of the war. The revolutionists were compelled to abandon their positions. The Government asserts that the enemy were under the personal com mand of Chamiorro, and admits that the engagement was fought with varying fortune until late in the af ternoon, when the lOrcea under G*n Lara, a Government commander, were In a disordered condition. A request was then sent out for rein forcements, and these, arriving an hour later, turned the tide of bat tle. The dispatch reads: “The battle began at 8 a. m., Feb ruary 22, Lara attacking the enemy when they occupying Tisma. Masts, of the provisional forces, wi‘h two Maxims, Inflicted serious losses, and the advantage was with him untii 2 p. m., when Chavarria, and later Valdes and then Garrtda, Zelodon.

A dispatch from Washington says complete denial of the' report of a Government victory In Nlcarauga Is given out in the shape of dispatches from Gen. Estrada, commanding the revolutionists, and addressed to Sen or Balvotore Castrlllo, the represen tative of the Provisional Government of the Central American State. The dispatches announce an overwhelm ing victory, after a battle lasting for three days, Tu which two of the gen erals of the government side were killed. A significant feature of the cable gram, which Senor Castrlllo turned over, after translation, to the Asso ciated Press, was found In the state ment that Gen. Chamorro is within striking distance of the capital, and In the opinion of Central American diplomats, practically holds its fate in his hands. The cablegram, as translated, follows: "Following three days of fierce lighting Gens. Mena and Zeledon ab solutely destroyed the army of Mad- rlf In Chontales, which was under the conimand of Gens. Vasquez, God- oy, Mata and Gonzales. The two latter w>ere killed. One hundred of the en^my were killed, and 200 wounded.
