Washington Advices Are That It Has Been Checked.
WASHINGTON, May 14.—Recent mail advices from Uruguay received here state that the revolution has been checked, after a bloody battle at Tres Arboles, in which a large number of revolutionists were killed and their leader driven to the frontier.
At the same time, the Government has seen fit to allay public discontent by taking into the Ministry several leaders who heretofore have been regarded as leaders in the seditious movement.
The Minister of War, General Diaz, gave way for this purpose to General Perez, who was acting President of the committee officially denounced as seditious and revolutionary.
This is accepted as the first step toward making terms with the revolutionists, although a strict censorship of the press prevents any construction being placed on the course of the Government.
The fighting has been bloody, the deaths reaching into the hundreds. The President has issued a proclamation congratulating General Munoz on his late success in dispersing the revolutionists, and a dress sword is to be presented to him.
The Government forces have been reinforced by the mobilization of the National Guard, made up of 6,000 men and large consignments of arms and ordnance have been received from Belgium.
