Cronista, Tegucigalpa daily, editorially expressed great surprise at declaration telegraphed through Salvador that Secretary Stimson has announced that the present movement in Honduras is of a political nature distinct from that in Nicaragua and that the United States is disposed to observe a conduct of strict neutrality with respect to Honduras.
