The Troubles in Panama.

New YORK. August lS.-Late Panama
papers are received, containing the follow
ing:
A heavy storm of wind and rain visited
the isthmus on the twenty fifth of July.
Much property was destroyed.
The steamer Vile de st. Nazaire, while
entering the harbor of Callac on the twen-
tieth of July, ran into the floating dock,
cutting it down on one side from top 10
bottom and causing heavy damage
The sanitary condition of Panama is good.
The Uni,ed States steamer Benicia,
which left Mazatlan, Mexico, on June IA,
for Panama, has not been heard from.
Panama still suffers from political m.
easiness. Several prominent persons have
been arrested on suspicion of being con
cerned in revolutionary plots.
In Guatemala, in view of the Threatened
invasion of the republic by Enrique Palacois,
all the city municipalities in the name of
the people have sent in their adhesion to
the government Opposition between the
government and church authorities con.
tinues.
Sickness on the Canandaigua.
The Panama Star says the sickness which
compelled the gunboat Canandaigua to
leave Aspinwall for Jamaica with over
sixty men down with the isthmus fever was
caused by keeping the men confined in un.
healthy quarters below deck, which led
many of them to seek the decks and open
air IN which to sleep, the result being they
caught the malarial fever, SO prevalent
there in hot weather. None of her officers
are sick, they having comfortable quar-
ters. The Star says the men have not had
shore liberty for nine months.
The Isthmus Route.
A Lima, Peru, letter states that the com
mission which explored the isthmus for a
canal route has returned. and report the
route surveyed impracticable. but favor
that surveyed by the Americans under Cap
tain Seltridge.

A EaOiish Cannrd.

4 special dispatch to the Times from
Washington. dated August Ii, says:
The sensational story to the effect that
there is deficit of ten millions in the cash
in the treasury has been current here for
some days. but no attention has been paid
to ii until to-day. when it was revived by
its reiteration from Wall street, whittier it
had been pertinaciously sent by interested
parties here. Of course it has no founda
tion in truth, and the report arises wholly
from the operations of the treasury in the
redemption of the called tive-twenty bonds.
The Secretary of the Treasury tonight de-
nounced it as canard, manufactured out
of whole cloth, and significantly added
that to make a deficiency of O,0O0, 900 in
the treasury coin would require the carting
off OF fifteen tons of gold. The story has
been thoroughly used by the sick "bulls'
in gold to-day. who hadn't stomach enough
to take more than half the amount offered
by the treasury thing which has not
happened before in four years-and who
have been appealing by telegraph to par
ties here to invoke some influence to.stiffen
their backbone.

Mullan, everything thatwas done to release
the unfortunates from the wreck and al
leviate the sutferings of the scalded vic.
Tins had to be done by the uninjured pas
sengers. The conductor, they say, left the
wreck before single person was extricated
and went to Lemont to telegraph to the
superintendent, while the passengers carried
the wounded and dying from the wreck
and with such appliances as they had; min
istered TO their wants, tearing up pillow
cases from the sleeping cars for bandages
and inprOvising beds for them.
Two physicians came from Lemont soon
after the collision occurred, but, il is said,
brought nothing in the way of medicines or
Instruments, and were, therefore. of little
use.
Miss Tracy, the daughter of the editor OF
the Houston Enion. who was with her
father on the train, IS spoken of in terms o.
the highest praise for her noble attentions
to the wounded.
When the relief train from Chicago ar
rived it brought everything necessary for
the comfort OF the victims, several of whom.
however, had by this time found relief in
death. Some OF the passengers say 1t was
$50 A. NJ. before the relief train arrived.
and one gentleman says it was 3 A. NJ.

Harvey Brown, of Cleveland, who won
the Lorillard medal at the recent contest at
Saratoga for the championship of the United
States in trap shooting, has returned the
medal to the donor, accompanied by let
ter. in which he says:
deem it proper to return the medal to
you, as the original owner, to be disposed
of as may best suit your views and wishes.
The reason for this action is, that my recent
experience at Saratoga Springs satisfied me
that the contest in defending the badges is
likely to be of such character that no gen
tleman can consistently enter into them. l
regret that the initiatory stepin your praise
worthy effort 70 encourage trap shooting in
field sports in this country should have de-
veloped the gamblers greed for gain, rather
than an honest desire to test the comparative
merits of contestants. trust our second
sweepstakes for this medal will start out
under such auspices that future contests in
its defense would be all you and other true
sporstmen could desire.
Mr.. Brown fairly won the medal by su.
perlor skill in shooting, but he does not
choose to compromise his position as gen.
tleman by continuing to compete in con-
test which, as shown at Saratoga, involves
all the base acts of pool stand,

For Grand Isle.

The Bossier. under command Of Captain
Gus Richards, leaves Harvey's canal this

from Harvey's canal to Grand Isle. Those
who have not yet enjoyed the pleasant ex.
cursion down the bayou. partaken of the
generous hospitality Of B. Margot. who
runs a hotel as it should be run, and
plunged into the surf. are reminded that
the season is now half over. Saturday
morning you can have another chance. Go
down and spend Sunday, and when you
get back Monday night you will feel as if
ten years of new life had been gained by

The announcement that an entertain

amateurs were engaged.
The Hibernia cornet band enlivened the
moments before the exercises commenced
with its melody.
The entertainment opened with the read
Ing of "Mercutio's Death" by Mrs. V. D.

great talent for rendering Dutch peculiari-

lie Preaux Clercs' excelleutly well. Mr..
Van Huffiens rich bass has lost none of its
power and fexibility. Mrs. Natali was
real favorite with the audience. Her
sweet yet powerful voice was exercised to
great advantage in this duet. 1--WE No

OF the Home. So touchingly did they sing
it that many Of the iair ones in the audience
shed tears.

MADRID, August l8.-There is no truth in
the dispatch sent to the Carlist Junta at
Bayonne. The attack was gallantly re-

severe contest, defeated the insurgents and
drove them from the town.

Several persons have been condemned

Proposed French Recognition Of Carlos.
A Herald special, dated Carlist headquar
ters. Sanguesa. August IL, says the French
government has taken initiatory steps to-
ward recognizing the Carlists as belliger-
ents, having issued orders permitting
the transit of arms and munitions of war
between the two customhOuse lines in the
south of France.
The decree, dated in March, 1905, which
prohibited such transportation on the bor-
ders is now rescinded by the Paris govern
ment. The border authorities have been
notified by circular, thus enabling the
Carlists to dispense with the use of a
steamer and the risk of her capture.
