Upon entering Panama on the
2ith instant, Commander McCaua is-
sued small fly sheet in
the French the Spanish and tho English
languages, giving his reasonsfor enter
ing the city. He directed all bars and
drinking saloons TO be closed; stated
mat no armed force would be allowed bO
enter the city and that the United States
forces would do police duty. McCalla
| further Explained through the fly-Aheet
that by allowing disturbances in PanR-
ma the United States would greatly
endanger their guarantee of an open
transit; that events at Colon had proved
that this action was prudent and advisa-
ole. Tne disinterested services OF Amer
ican troops was aprlauded and appreci-
ated greatly by the better element OF cit
liens. The city was turned over TO Gep.
Aizpuru upon his signing treaty that
no barricades would be erected, that no
fighting should take place In the streets,
and upon his guarantee To protect for
eign lives and property.
AIzPURU AND ARMANBo.

has given prompt information -
the American commanders Of
Gen, Aizpuru's warlike preparations
and has received some strange treat
ment at the hands of tho French consul,
ArmandO, who claims TO have caused
the withdrawal of the United States
forces. Armando had nothing 10 do
with the withdrawal. Consul Adamson
and Commander McCalla have uncOubt-
edly saved Panama.

volunteers from Cauca, under COM
mand of Gen, Montoya, who has sent
Gen. Aizpuru notice TO quit the city
within Is hours. Aizpuru now says he

Panama the Natlonalists will no doubt
try To dislodgo him, and unless the Uni

stand poor chance. Ii AiEpuru re-
mains in the city tho matter will DO in.

sANoTHER RESURRECTION FEARED.
BuENA VENTURA, April l2S.--Yoster-
day afternoon the firing Of guns was
heard at Calls, hear here. IL is rumorod
an instruction has again broko out
ihore.
A DENIAL FROM ARMANDo.
The French consul Armando pub
fishes lottor to-day, denying that he
has telegraphed his government pro-
testing against the action Of the Ameri-
can forces on the isthmus. He did
nothing except draw the attention of
the consular corps To the necessity Of
taking everv possible preoaution topre-
vent "a catastrophe, having in view a
statement made by the rebel
general SandoVal OF threaten
Ing nature. Even thiq he
declares was ex-ofiicio and as private
individual. Armando says he has
nevor communicated one WORD OF the
political situation here TO his govern
mont.
AGzPURu's ATTITUDE.
Ala o'clock this afternoon the various
oonsuls held meeting with Aizpuru,
who undertook 10 have him give UP the
city TO the government troops upon
their arrival, but as yet he shows no
signs OF carrying out this undertaking.
The rebels still occupy the towers, and
are ready 10 defend the cuartels. The
national troops remain aboard the hulk.
Iflas BOW appears probable) Aizpuru
refuses TO vacato the city, he can only
DO disturbed by an attack by govern
meut troops. No one can predict the
e fioct OF such au attack. IL may result
in terrible disaster.
