Note XXIII-26 — Chapter XXIII · POLITICAL AFFAIRS IN NICARAGUA. 1867-1885.
Reading edition
It was insinuated that the Pan. R. R. Co. might be underhandedly promoting discord, to throw obstacles in the way of an interoceanic canal being made in Nic. The company had been also suspected of doing so in the late war between Salv. and Hond., to prevent, or at least retard, the construction of an interoceanic railway in the latter state. Such reports probably had no foundation in fact.
