Worthless
,
I
should
think
.
But
if
I
must
define
them
,
I
would
say
bad
.
They
are
to
the
effect
that
a
two
days
'
battle
had
been
fought
near
Sta
.
Marta
,
and
that
the
Ribierists
are
defeated
.
It
must
have
happened
a
few
days
ago
--
perhaps
a
week
.
The
rumour
has
just
reached
Cayta
,
and
the
man
in
charge
of
the
cable
station
there
has
telegraphed
the
news
to
his
colleague
here
.
We
might
just
as
well
have
kept
Barrios
in
Sulaco
.
"
"
What
's
to
be
done
now
?
"
murmured
Mrs.
Gould
.
"
Nothing
.
He
's
at
sea
with
the
troops
.
He
will
get
to
Cayta
in
a
couple
of
days
'
time
and
learn
the
news
there
.
What
he
will
do
then
,
who
can
say
?
Hold
Cayta
?
Offer
his
submission
to
Montero
?
Disband
his
army
--
this
last
most
likely
,
and
go
himself
in
one
of
the
O.S.N.
Company
's
steamers
,
north
or
south
--
to
Valparaiso
or
to
San
Francisco
,
no
matter
where
.
Our
Barrios
has
a
great
practice
in
exiles
and
repatriations
,
which
mark
the
points
in
the
political
game
.
"
Decoud
,
exchanging
a
steady
stare
with
Mrs.
Gould
,
added
,
tentatively
,
as
it
were
,
"
And
yet
,
if
we
had
could
have
been
done
.
"
"
Montero
victorious
,
completely
victorious
!
"
Mrs.
Gould
breathed
out
in
a
tone
of
unbelief
.
"
A
canard
,
probably
.
That
sort
of
bird
is
hatched
in
great
numbers
in
such
times
as
these
.
And
even
if
it
were
true
?
Well
,
let
us
put
things
at
their
worst
,
let
us
say
it
is
true
.
"
"
Then
everything
is
lost
,
"
said
Mrs.
Gould
,
with
the
calmness
of
despair
.
Suddenly
she
seemed
to
divine
,
she
seemed
to
see
Decoud
's
tremendous
excitement
under
its
cloak
of
studied
carelessness
.
It
was
,
indeed
,
becoming
visible
in
his
audacious
and
watchful
stare
,
in
the
curve
,
half-reckless
,
half-contemptuous
,
of
his
lips
.
And
a
French
phrase
came
upon
them
as
if
,
for
this
Costaguanero
of
the
Boulevard
,
that
had
been
the
only
forcible
language
