OOOOOQOOOOOOOOOOOOOOQOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DELAY ACTION ON ZELAYA AFFAIR Uncle Sam Trying to Fix Status Washington, Nov. 24.

The delay on the part of the United Stalei in taking any action with respect to the killing by order of President Zelaya of Nica-I ragua of tho two Americans, Grace I and Cannon, it developed, "is caused by the inability of the government up to this time to fix the exact status In Nicaragua of the slain men. It was explained that every effort was being made through government agencies to determine whether the men were fact members of the revolutionary army or whether they were acting on their own responsibility at tho time they were captured. If it can be proven, as seems very doubtful, that they were responsible for the planting of mines for the purpose of blowing up troopships of the Nicaragnan government nnd were acting in this matter on their own respon sibility, their status would bo very i different from what It would be were I they acting as part of the revolution-1 ary forces. It is that point that the I state department Is trying to clear up before it takes any aggressive action. The Anieriran vice consul at Managua, Henry Calder, has been instructed to obtain all possible information on this subject aniHT'ls believed that other agencies have also been employed for the same purpose and until this information is received it is extremely doubtful if the United States will take any steps looking to the chastisement of the president.
