THE TROUBLES ON THE ISTHMUS.

WASHINGTON, April 5.-The Secretary
of the Navy, in view of the later dispatch
es regarding the troubles at Panama, and
especially one from Commander Zane, of
the Galena, has decided to send further
force to the isthmus by the Acapulco. The
dispatches indicate a continued condition
of disorder. the following is Commander
Kane's dispatch referred to above:
"CoLoN, April 4, 1S85.-Secretary Navy,
Washington: Vessels now on way to AS
pinwall, together with force on the Para,
will be sufficient to open and guard transit
if supported by two ships at Panama.
Without such support extra force of 500
men will be required. Everything quiet in
Aspinwall, and all American property as
well protected as my force will permit. l

command is safe and well. Only one for
eigner killed SO far as known, There are
about 100 Columbian government troops
here holding large number of prisoners,
and are rendering no assistance ia preserv-
ing order Railroad CO npany is affordng
all possible relief to refugees, and have
sent many out on line of road. Trausit re-
mains closed. One relief train reached
Panama last night at great risk, having
been stopped by insurg ants and one person
forclbly removed. Wires to Panama con-
tinualy being CUT
Secretary Whitney has sent the folio wing
dispatch to President Houston, of She Pa

Later dispatches indie tie such condi-
ton of things that | conclude to send $50

tain how long he will maintain power, as
the Buenaventura forces are expected to at
tack him. The isthmus is the battle
ground for the government, revolutionists
and anarchists, and the end is probably yet
far off.
Much excitement is caused by the news
of the movement of United States forces
