It will benefit them all, but we believe | it will benefit us still more. “Your shipping men know that if two vessels started from Liverpool for San Francisco, one by the Suez canal and one by Cape Horn, they would both beat a vessel sailing from New York to San Francisco around the Horn. That’s only one reason why we must have the | canal.” ADVERTISEMENTS. Economy |Is a strong point with “Hood's Sarsaparilla.

The Tres No- viembre, a gunboat of Panama, | played the Americ# flag, answering | the salute. The shore batteries also |fired a salute of twenty-one guns, | which the Marblehead answered. At 10 o'clock Rear Admiral Glass, | Consul Gudger and Commander Phelps, | accompanied by Lieutenants Philip An- {drews and Trellinwinder, officlally ! called upon the Junta. A military band i played “The Star-Spangled Banner” on | the Americans’ arrival at’ the palace | and on their departure from that build- | ing. They were received by the mem- | bers of the Junta, the Cabinet Minis- | ters and Generals Huertas, Jeffries, | Diaz and Varon and their staffs. Ad- | miral Glass said he was glad to officlal- |1y call upon the Government of Pan- ama. It had been a great pleasure for him to salute this morning the flag of | the new republic, for whose prosperity and greatness he made the best wishes. | Senor Arango, a member of the junta, answered, saying that in the namé of the junta and of the people of Panama he expressed sincere pleasure at the presence of the gallant fleet in Panama Bay, representing the noble people and Government of the United States, “‘to | whom the isthmus is deeply grateful for the hand of fellowship so gener- | ously and promptly extended to them | by its great President.” Gudger proposed a toast to a new Panama canal treaty, which was an- wered by General Varona, who toasted | President Roosevelt and the United States army with great cordiality. The people of Panama are happy over | the official recognition of the flag and the event is being celebrated enthusi- astically. During the ceremonies to- day large crowds surrourided the pal- ace of the Governor. The flag of the republic of Panama which was saluted by the Marblehead | this morning was made on board that vessel. At L e PEACE MISSION FAILS. Colombian Proposals Coldly Received by the Panamaians. COLON, Nov. 17.—The Panamaian Commission, composed of Senors Arias, Morales and Arosemena, which left Panama yesterday to meet the Peace Commission from the Depart- ment of Bolivar, boarded the Mayflower to-day and held a short conference with Colombians, who represent only the Department of Bolivar and the Governor of that departmenty and who have no credentials from Bogota. The Colombians asked the Panamaians if they would return to the republic of Colombia, assuring them' céncessions | and considerations on the passage of a canal treaty. The Panamaians replied that they would not return to the republic of Colombia and declared that the assur- ances came too late, as Panama’s posi- tion was so advantageous that they | could not see any reason for changing. During the conference Nikano Insig- nares, a brother of the Governor of the State of Bolivar and who was the spokesman of the Colombians, made a strong appeal to the Panamans not to disrupt the republic of Colombia, ‘and he supplemented his appeal by the golemn assurance that Colombia would grant all the rights demanded by the isthmians and eventually carry out their grand project of building the canal. Replying to Senor Insignares, Tomas on the isthmus. The revolution, Senor Arias said, was born absolutely of the unanimous desire of the people of Panama and was irrevocablé. Con- | tinuing, Senor Arias said: “Colombia will always find in_ this country the most sincere brotherly | feeling. The political ties binding the | isthmus to Colombia have been broken, | but the fault is not that of the isth- mus. THE ties of affection, however, | can never be broken.” | Senor Insignares, in answer, ex- pressed his deep sorrow at finding that the hopes of reconciliation were im- possible of realization and that the ac-/ tions of the people of the isthmus of Panama were irrevocable. He de- clared that all the people of Colombia | would unite in an effort to enforce the | rights of the republic on the isthmus | of Panama even at the cost of great sacrifices. Senors Arosamona and Morales then delivered addresses in which they ex- pressed views similar to those enun- ciated by Senor Arias. The threat of Senor Insignares that the republic of Colombia would en- force its alleged rights in isthmian ter- ritory did not cause apprehension to the Panaman commissioners, who re-' celved it with equanimity and did not give it any serlous consideration, It was unofficially announ by the Colombian commissioners ti General Reyes, representing the Bogota Gov- ernment, was coming, to the isthmus | to confer with the provisional Govern- | ment of Panama. A dozen marines from the United States steamship Dixie have been or- dered to remain ashore to act as sig- nal men for the communication of rou- tine messages between the shore and the United States fleet. P The Peace Commibsioners left the Mayflower at 2 o'clock in the after- noon, accompanied by a number of of- ficers of the vessel. On reaching the landing of the Royal Mail dock the Commissioners walked by the side of the officials to the steamer Trente, only a few yards distant. They presented the appearance of being prisoners, dis- | | though it was understood they were not in any way to be considered such. | Panama soldiers guarded the dock en- | trance. - Soon after the Commissioners | embarked the Trente sailed. | _Eleven irreconecilables of the common | class were arrested on the streets of Colon to-day and shipped on the steam- er Trente to Cartagena without being given time to go home for thelr clpth- ing or to say farewell to thelr families. The steamer Segurancia is the first ship to leave the harbor ot Colon with the flag of the new republic at its head. Commander Delano of the United States steamship Dixie safled for New York on the Segurancia. The cruiser Atlanta has returned to Colon. Lk v Mt AMADOR AND BOYD ARRIVE. Panama Junta’s Commissioners Land at New York. NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—From the foremast "head of the steamer City of ‘Washington, which arrived to-day from Colon, flew the flag of the republic of Panama and on board were the speclal Commissioners sent by the new repub- lic to the United States. The Commis- sioners-are Dr) Manuel E. Amador and Federico Boyd, and with them are Car- los Arozmena, secretary, and Archibald Boyd, attache. The City of Washington was in the center of the trouble at Colon and re- ceived on board a large number of women and children because: of the general fear of a clash between the in- surrectionists and the Colombian troops. There were 500 of these troops in Colon who demandéd transportation by rail to Panama, but the railway au- thorities refused to take them. They marched down to the railroad terminal and were stopped by United States ma- rines from the United States cruiser Nashville. The marines had run flat cars laden with cotton bales in front of the depot and filled the windows with bales of cotton, forming barricades which were manned by marines. After some parley the troops went down on the pier to the British Royal Mail steamer Atrato to embark for Cartagena. The commanding officers in the meantime had gone to Panama and the troops were without comman- ders. Colonel Black, with the marines, taking advantage of the fact that the troops had all passed down the pler, changed the cotton bale barricades un- til they blocked the pier and refused to allow the troops to come back to shore. A fund of $8000 was collected and the troops were sent, passage prepaid, by the Atrato to Cartagena. For two Gays, November 4 and 5, great excitement prevailed in Colon and many of the foreign residents sought shelter with their families aboard the City of Washington. The Commissioners, on arrival here, did not know their exact status and de- clined to talk until they had 1‘(’(‘6‘\'(‘d the latest intelligence from Washing- ton. They could not say whether they would go direct to Washington or not. Dr. Manuel Echeverri of New York met the Commissioners at quarantine. - SOMETHING ABOUT PANAMA. Population and Resources of the ) Little Republic. * WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.—The com- merce of Panama amounts to about $3,000,000 per annum, its population to about 300,000 and its area to 31571 square miles, or nearly equal to that of the State of Indiana. These figures are supplied by the Department of Commerce and Labor through its Bu- reau of Statistics, and are the latest available data on commerce, popula- tion and area. . The principal ports are Panama, on the Pacific Coast, and Colon, on the Atlantic side, and these ports are vis- ited annually by more than 1000 ves- sels, which land more than 1,000,000 tons of merchandise and neayly 100,000 passengers, chiefly for transfer over the Panama Railway, forty-seven miles in length, connecting the Pacific port of Panama with the Atlantic port of Colon. Colon, or Aspinwall, as it is some- times called, has a population of about 3000 persons. The city of Panama has a population of about 25000. It was founded in 1519, burned in 1671 and re- built in 1673, while Colon is of much more recent date, having been founded in 1855. The population of the new republic is composed of - various elements—Span- ish, Indian, negro and-a limited num- ber of persons from the KEuropean countries and the United States, espe- cially those engaged in commerce and transportation and the operation of the Panama Railway. A considerable num- ber of the population is composed of persons brought to the isthmus as la- borers for the construction of the ca- nal, and of their descendants. Since the abolition of slavery in Jamaica a considerable number of blacks and mu- lattoes have settled on the isthmus as small dealers and farmers, and in some villages on the Atlantic side they are said to be in the majority. Some of the native population have retained their customs, speech and physical type, es- pecially those in the western part of the province, and claim to be descend- ants of the natives found in that sec- tion by the Spaniards when they dis- covered and conquered the country. Of the commerce of Panama, the United States supplies a larger share than any other country. The importa- tions at the port of Colon during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1903, as shown by the report of the TUnited States Consul, amounted to $952,684, of which $614,179 was from the United States, $119,086 from France, $118,322 from England, $76,386 from Germany. From the port of Panama the exports to the United States in the fiscal year 1903 amounted to $193,342, of which $56,- 767 was hides, $49,974 india rubber, $27,- 805 cocobolo nuts, $16,598 ivory nuts, B e 2 2 2 o Canal Negotiations Progressing. e Continued From Page 1, Columns 5 and 6.

'The Consul at Panama says that the im- ported articles come mostly from Eng- land, Germany, France, Italy and the United States, but gives no statistics of the imports. Panama is connected with San Fran- cisco by a weekly steamer schedule, operated by the Pacific Mall Steamship Company, and with Valparaiso by a weekly steamer schedule operated by the Pacific Steam Navigation = Com- pany and South American Steamship Company. Two passenger and two freight trains leave Panama daily for Colon and Colon daily for Panama. The time for passenger trains over the forty-seven miles of railway is three hours. From Panama there is one cable line north to American ports and one to the south. The actual time consumed in communicating with the United States and recelving an answer is stated by the Consul to be usually about four hours. There also are cable lines from Colon to the United States and Europe. The money of the country is silver, the rate of exchange having averaged during the past year about 150 per éent. b s L MORGAN NOT TO WITHDRAW. WASHINGTON, Nov. 17,—The Sen- ate committee appointed by the Re- publcan caucus to fill vacancies on standing committees held its firet meet- ing to-day. Senator Hawley, ranking Republican member of the Inter- Oceanic Canal Committee, has asked | to be relieved from duty on the com- mittee because of ill-health. The report that Senator Morgan will withdraw from the committee when he is deposed from the chairmanship, which it has been decided shall go to Senator Hanna, is not credited by either Republicans or Democrats. - s 3 Marroquin Not at Galveston. NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 17.—A special from Galveston, Tex., says: Three travelers on the steamship Cuban, in quarantine, one of whom was believed | to be President Marroquin of Colombia, are merchants en route to New York | on business.

I LONDON, Nov. 17.—King Victor Em- manuel and Queen Helena of Italy reached Portsmouth on the royal yacht Victorla and Albert this morning amid salutes from the ships and land bat- teries In the barbor. Upon the arrival of the yacht at the jetty the Prince of | Wales went aboard and welcomed the | King and Queen in the name of King | Edward and of the nation. A torpedo flotilla met the royal vessel and formed { an escort for the royal yacht through | the home fleet lying at Spithead. All the ships were dressed and manned, and the cheers of the crews mingled with the reports of the guns in giving the Itallan King and Queen a welcome | to England. Great crowds lined every | vantage point, and bluejackets and ma- rines lined the jetty. A band played | the Italian national anthem as the yacht steamed alongside. The Prince {of Wales was met at the top jof the| | sangway by King Victor Emmanuel | and Queen Helena. After greetings had | | been exchanged between the royal per- | sonages the naval and military com | manders were introduced to the King and Queen, and the Mayor of Ports- | mouth ‘presented an address to King| Victor Emmanuel, who briefly ex-| pressed his thanks for the message of good will. After lunch- on board the yacht the | King and Queen and the Prince of | Wales disembarked and King Victor | Emmanuel inspected the guards of honor and the naval cadets from the | college at Osborne, after which the party entered a train and started for Windsor amid another salute from the guns of the fleet. It rained heavily as the royal party left Portsmouth. The royal visitors received an en- thusiastic welcome at Windsor. The station was handsomely draped with the Italian colors. King Edward, Queen Alexandra and other members | ian sovereigns on the platform and the greetings between the hdsts and guests ‘were most cordial. After the presentation of an address from the Mayor and corporation of Windsor to King Victor Emmanuel a procession was formed. The two Kings, | the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Connaught occupied the first carriage | and the two Queens and Princess Vic- toria were seated in the second vehicle. These were followed by six state car- riages, containing the suites, all drawn by white horses with postilions in red and gold liveries. The starting of the procession was signal for renewed shouting by the crowds of people. The procession, which moved slowly along the troop-lined route, entered the castle by the famous$ sovereigns’ gate- way. Department has declined the recogni- tion, informing Giordan that it has been the unbroken policy of the State | Department to recognize only de facto governments, and that if Minister| Powell, who is on the spot, finds that | the revolutionists have actualy estab- | lished a capital and opened ports and | are able to protect life and property | he will recognize them. ————— OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST‘ Several Changes Are Made in the| Postal Service and More | Patents Issued.

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.—While ' per~ sistent reperts that the shipyard scan- dal would be hushed up have been cur- rent since the last hearing before H. D. Oliphant, the special United States examiner appointed by Judge Kirkpat- rick to hear testimony on the applica~ tion to make permanent the temporary receivership, it is now known that the scandal will be sifted to the bottom. Even if the complainant group of first mortgage bondholders should agree to some reorganization compromise and cease examining officers of the collapsed United States Shipbuilding Company, alleged promoters, expert accountants and others presumed to have Intimate knowledge of the inception and flota- tion of the enterprise, other interested persons will probe the scheme. From beginning of revelations it has been understood that in due time an Inquiry would be instituted regarding the circumstances leading to the listing of the United States Shipbuilding se- curities on the New York Stock Ex- change. It is now known that a sub- committee of the exchange already has this matter under advisement. Severe punishment may be visited upen any person or group of men who imposed upon the men charged with maintain- ing the integrity of the Stock Ex- change.
