Reports from Washington state that a settlement of the trouble is likely to take place within two days. Immediately on payment of the indemnity, the British troops will evacuate the country, and the whole matter will then be referred to arbitration. New York, May 2. The British have arrested a Nicaraguan official for attempting to prevent supplies being sent to the fleet.
