Admiral Coghlan Keeping a Vigilant Watch on Their Movements. Not only is Colombia rushing troops to the border of Panama and maintaining there an ‘attitude of de- termination to undertake to regain the isthmus, but the savage tribes of Indians in the wild region between the canal strip and the Atrato river have been allied with the Colombian cause. The American naval force on the isthmus is watching the situation at every possible point. Even though initiation of hostilities by Colombia is not immediately retaliated by the United States, Rear Admiral Cogh- lan will not be caught napping by the Colombian army. “Joe” Howten, a chief of the San Blas Indians arrived at Colon and said that 4,000 Colombians are en- camped beyond Acanti. The cruiser Mayflower and the gunboats Bancroft and Castine have left the harbor to resume the patrol of the San Blas coast as far as the Gulf of Darien. Admiral Coghlan cables from Colon: “Report from Cartagena now about to transport troops to Gulf of Darien. Troops are arriving at Barranquilla quite rapidly. Four thousand men now there. Castine, from Caledonia harbor, reports Indians unfriendly. Chief of Sasardi now wears uniform of a colonel of Colombian force. No large landing of Colombian force made on the coast; merely parties of two and three in canoes. No Colom- bian forces were seen at any time or place in Panama territory. No Ameri- can vessels have been able to buy stores from Indians, even before Co- lombian forces went to Titumati. Everything quiet and no excitement at Boras del Toro; Nashville will re- main there.” It can be stated on authority that the administration does not contem- plate paying one dollar out of the United States Treasury to Colombia on account of the seccession of Pana- ma, nor will it go before The Hague tribunal as a party to any proceed- ings growing out of that seccession. It is again* announced that the United States stands ready to do every- thing in its power to bring about an amicable understanding between Co- lombia and Panama. EIGHT MEN KILLED. Mad Rush of Workmen to Get Out of Building. Eight men were killed and two probably fatally hurt by falling down an elevator shaft from the sixth floor cof the Brown Shoe Company building in Washington avenue, St. Louis. They were members of a crowd of employes that massed about the elevator gate to catch the first car down after 6 p. m. The dead are Joseph Provaznik, George Rothman, Frank Weinberger, died in hospital; Antonio Giacoma, died in hospita'; Lorenz Giacoma, a son; three unidentified. The employes had assembled at the close of work in the corridors on the different floors, waiting for the ‘elevator to take them to the street rotunda. The elevator was at the seventh floor and those on the sixth floor in their eagerness to get upon the car, began to push forward to the gate. ward into the shaft. until 10 of the employes had disap- shaft and started on a shaft, they found the mangled broken other and twisted about the machin- ery. Korean Ports Opened. The Emperor of Korea has order- ed the opening of Wiju, subject to the acquiescence of Chima by telegraph. The American, English, Russian, Ital- ian and Japanese legations at Seoul are under guard. It is stated that sweeping changes will be made soon in the personnel of the Korean Gov- ernment favorable to Japan interests. WARNING WAS NEGLECTED. Building Commissioner Reported All Chicago Theaters Defective. Mayor Harrison was on the stand in the Ircquois theatre fire inquest. Fis evidence related to a report sub- mitted to him by Commissioner Wil- liams, which declared that none of the theaters in Chicago fully complied with the building ordinance. He de- scribed the wanderings of this report from him to the council, from this council to a sub-committee, from this committee back to the council and then to tha printer. He said no action had been taken upon it by the council up to the time of the Iroquois theater fire. Rev. Johnston Myers, pastor of Emanuel Baptist church, has received from a friend in Prescott, Ariz., a fund for the aid of chorus girls stranded by the closing of Chicago theaters since the Ircqucis borror. 1,200 Soldiers Home Again.

IS CALLED LIQUID SUNSHINE. Instrument Applied to Protect Healthy Tissue from the Rays of “Liquid Sunshine.” A new method of treaung deep- seated cancer has been successfully tried in Chicago. The process em- braces the idea of applying radium di- rectly to the affected tissue by using an instrument called a :ystoscope, by means of which the radium can be introduced into the throat or stomach through the mouth. The instrument consists of a piece of tubing supplied with an eyepiece at one end and a tiny screen covered with sulphide of zinc at the other, a small quantity of radium being placed in front of the screen. A number of lenses inside of the tube enable the operating physician to look through it into the stomach, throat or other part of the anatomy where a cancer may be found. When the radium is applied to the affected tissue the light from the radium is increased in brilliancy by the action of sulphide of zine, and thus the phy- sician is enabled to examine closely the condition of the affected tissue. At the same time the treatment is in progress. “Liquid sunshine” is the universal panacea let loose at a symposium on radium in the rooms of Dr. William J. Morton, of New Yory City. The Technology club of New York fath- ered the latest contribution to electro- therapeutics. This liquid sunshine is thas direct result of the influence of radium on medicines known to the physicians of past and present times. When charged with radium rays and then taken internally, it will produce cures that are marvelous. Even the dread cancer has been spirited away by this new sunshine internal bath. Dr. Morton, who is the professor of elec- tro-therapeutics in the New York Post Graduate Medical School and Hos- pital told his eager brethren that he had effected three distinct cures of cancer by these baths of liquid sun- shine. All present applauded. In the first instance these advanced scientists employed the X-ray to lo- cate the diseased tissue. Then with a knowledge of the locality of the cancer such medicines as will absorb the rays emitted from radium are ap- plied internally. The diseased matter is thus discovered directly, and un- der the influence of the radio action the cancer is eaten up. FAMOUS ARTIST DEAD. Received Eight Grand Medals and Cross of Legion of Honor.

Negro Hanged by Colored Men After He Had Been Acquitted. A negro, named Mosely, was lynch- ed in Sussex county, Va. by a mob of colored men. He had been tried and acquitted for the murder of an- other negro. Friends of the murder- ed man went to Mosely’s home, took him out and hanged him. “Jumbo” Clark, a negro, was lynch- ed at High Springs, Fla, He had as- saulted a white girl, about 14 years of age, while she was on her way to school. He was captured and brought to High Springs and confronted with his victim, who identified him. Of- ficers left with the prisoner to bring him to Gainesville, the county seat, then riddled with bullets. The mob and the negro was taken from them and hanged to a tree. His body was then riddled with bullits. The mob consisted of 50 men, who wore no masks, although the lynching occurred in daytime.

Building Commissioner George Williams was the chief witness Tues- day, in the inquest over the victims of the Iroquois theater fire. He said that he personally knew nothing of the construction of the building, save what knowledge he had obtained from an inspector, When he visited the theater to con- sult Architect Marshall regarding some changes he wished to make, he considered the theater to be the most fireproof structure of its kind that he had ever seen. Mr. Williams declared’ that last October he reported to Mayor Harrison that not one of the theaters . in Chicago was complying with the ordinances. The mayor turn- ed over his report to the council which turned it over to a committee and nothing was ever done. William Curran, an inspector of the building department, was called to the stand. He declared on the night of the fire that he had inspected the theater just prior to the fire and had found everything in good shape. ELIMINATION OF NEGRO VOTE. New Governor of Maryland Indorses the Scheme. Edwin Warfield was inaugurated Governor of Maryland on the 13th. In his address he declared that he would be true to the promises made in the Democratic platform, which include further disfranchisement of the mne- groes. Concerning this he said: “The people demand that the State shall be governed by those citi- zens, who, because of their intelli- gence and their interest in the mate- rial welfare of the Commonwealth, are best fitted to patriotically and wisely exercise the high duties of citizenship. This result can only be attained by an amendment to the constitution fixing a higher standard of qualification for the exercise of the elective franchise. I believe that an amendment to the constitution upon the lines which I have suggested, ex- pressed in clear, definite, simple terms, should be submitted to the people of Maryland.” MINERS TO INVEST MONEY. Considering Erection of Skyscraper and Co-Operative Store. The meeting of the miners of dis- trict No. 6, comprising Ohio and part of West Virginia, was held in Colum- bus. The old officers were re-elected as follows: President, W. H. Hau- kins; vice president, John W. Sulli- van; secretary-treasurer, G. Savage; National committeeman, William Morgan. The district is considering the ad- visability of erecting a modern sky- scraper office building as an invest- ment, they having over $200,000 in the treasury. The union is also in- vestigating the advisability of enter- ing into the co-operative storekeeping for benefit of miners in all the differ- ent sections. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES. The strike at the Canonsburg (Pa.) Steel & Iron works has been settled. Frank Kiefer, 18 years old, of Loyal- hanna, Pa. is dead of injuries receiv- en in the Pandora mines. The First English Lutheran church of Butler, Pa., has elected Rev. Rob- ert Roeder of Norristown, Pa. pas- tor. A number of distinguished men, at a conference in Washington, adopted resolutions favoring international ar- bitration. The introduction of the glass blow- ing machine in Indiana resulted in the closing down of 20 plants within the last year.

Trocps of Dominican Government At- tack and Capture Town of Porto Plata. Five persons connected with the con- spiracy headed by General Monplaisir to start a revolt against General Nord, were condemned to death by a military tribunal and were executed in the pres- ence of a vast crowd. Several for- acy probably will be deported. The government troops which dis- embarked recently at Sosua were or- dered to march on Porto Plata. A brisk attack, supported by the guns of a Dominican war vessel began in the evening. Next morning cperations were re- sumed and the government troops en- tered Porto Plata, causing the flight of General Des Champs, who took refuge in the United States consulate. The British cruiser Pallas landed marines to protect the consulate. The United States cruiser Hartford has arrived. The revolutionary general, Navarro, having seized cattle on an estate at La Fe, which is an ‘American property, the agent of the estate applied to United States Minister Powell for pro- tection. ‘The minister was compelled to refuse the request as he has no force at his command sufficient to guard the estate. Flywheel Bursts. By the bursting of a large flywheel at the Pittsburg Plate Glass company plant at Charleroi one man was killed and two others were injured. The wheel burst with such force that large pieces were thrown through the roof and side of the building. One piece weighing 300 pounds was hurled sev- eral hundred feet away. The dead man is Lorry Blackbury, an engineer, whose home is at Millsboro, Pa. Gus Bodson, a machinist, and Frederick Kohl were painfully injured by flying brick and debris. The dynamo had been undergoing some repairs, and it is thought was started too suddenly, giving the large wheel great velocity. St. Louis Gets Convention. By a margin of six votes St. Louis captured the next Democratic Nation- al Convention when the National Com- mittee met in Washington to decide on the place of meeting. On motion of Colonel J. M. Guffey of Pittsburg, July 6 was decided upon as the date for the convention, CAPITAL CULLINGS. The Cabinet decided that the work- ing hours of Government employes shall be from 9 A. M,, to 4:30 P.

A resolution directing the President to negotiate a treaty with Colombia to settle compensation for alleged in- terference, introduced. by Mr. Bacon (Dem., Ga.) caused a lively debate in the Senate. United States Senator Charles H. Dietrich was acquitted in the United States Circuit Court at Omaha, Neb. of bribery, on the ground that the al- leged offense was committed before he was sworn in as Senator. The State Department transmitted to the House a supplemental estimate for third secretaries of embassies at Vienna, Rome and St. Petersburg at $1,200 each. These offices are made necessary by the increased work of the ‘embassies, The Senate confirmed the nomina- tion of William H. Taft to be Secre- tary of War; Gen, Luke E. Wright to succeed Mr. Taft as Governor of the Philippines, and Henry C. Ide’to be vice Governor of the Philippines. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Yerkes has decided that it is per- missible for State prisons to manu- facture tobacco or cigars for its own inmates without paying license. If found outside the institution the to- bacco is liable to seizure. The House passed the bill making available $250,000 to meet the emer- gency growing out of the ravages of the Mexican boll weevil. After a lively debate lasting three hours, the House in committee of the whole by a vote of 78 to 65 struck out of the legislative, executive and judic- ial appropriation bill the paragraph providing for the salaries and ex- penses of the civil service commission and clerks employed under the com- mission.

WwW. & J., Wooster and Western Re serve to Discuss Grave Questions. Arrangements have been completed for a triangular inter-collegiate de- bate to be participated in by Wash- ington & Jefferson College, Wooster University of Wooster, O., and the Western Reserve University of Cleve land, O. The first debate will be held in March between Washington & Jef- ferson and Wooster. The subject chosen is “Resolved, That the Immi- gration Laws of the United States Government Should Be Uniform with Respect to All Foreign Nationalities. Washington & Jefferson will be repre- sented by R. J. Lane, Edward Robb and Herman Hackett. The debate with Western Reserves will take place \u Cleveland later, the subject, “Resolved, That the United States Government Should Ally Itself With Great Britain or Some Adequate Power for the Purpose of Preserving the Integrity of the Chinese Empire.” Washington & Jefferson will be rep- resented in this debate by Ira Greaves, W. S. Walsh and George L, Coyle. DRIGGS GETS THE LIMIT. Must Pay $10,000 and Spend a Day in Jail for Postal Frauds. Ex-Congressman Edmund H. Driggs, of Brooklyn, was sentenced in the United States court to one day’s im- ‘| prisonment in jail and to pay a fine of $10,000. He was convicted last week of having, between the time he was elected to Congress and sworn in, secured for the Brandt-Dent company a contract whereby that concern sold to the Postofiice department 250 of its automatic cashiers. The Company re- ceived $150 for each machine, and Drigg’s share was $50 for each ma- chine, or $12,500 in all. Driggs tes- tified that this $12,500 was paid to him by the Brandt-Dent company not only for selling machines to the Postoffice department, but to the trade generally. He said that he never sold the machines as a member of Con- gress, but thought the company em- ployed him because he was an ener- getic salesman. The defense set up that Driggs did not know he was violating any law. COULDN'T STAND CRITICISM. College Professor Gives It as Reason for Ending His Life. Prof. Lyman E. Smith, aged 35 years, committed suicide at the Glen- wood hotel in Kenova, W. Va. by shooting. He left a note giving as a reason for his act that he had been severely criticised by certain newspa- pers and that after spending years fitting himself for literary work he could not stand the comment directed to him. From papers found on the man’s person, it is inferred that he had taught in various Pennsylvania institutions. He had just returned from-a trip through France and Ger- many, Chinese Tortured. Missionaries of the American Board of Foreign Missions complained strong- ly recently to United States Minister Conger that their converts in the dis- trict of Pao Ting Fu were being looted by bandits, who claimed to be Catholics and that a reign of terror prevailed in the district. The Chi- nese officials feared to act, and several Christians who refused to pay black- mail were tortured: Their legs were broken and some died from their in- juries. Secretary Williams effected an arrangement with the officials of the district, who promised to protect the people. Henry Herbert Pigott Caught. Henry Herbert Pigott, who achieved notriety in 1901 by eloping from Phil- adelphia to Denver with Mrs. Char- lotte Garsed, his wife’s niece, and disappearing with funds estimated at more than $500,000, has been arrested with the woman in British Columbia. The capture was effected only after a long hard chase on dogsleds, through a wild, mountaincus country. Maryland Treasurer Re-Elected. State Treasurer Murray Vandiver was re-elected by the legislature of Maryland for the ensuing two years. He received all the Democratic votes. Republican members voted for Thomas J. Shryock, who was state treasurer in 1898-99. : BUSINESS ERIEFS. It is estimated that municipal bond issues in the United States during 1903 aggregated ~~ $151,000,000, the largest on record.
