Concessions to British Capitalists
In Peru and Columbia.
PANAMA, August 1.-The Peruvian
Congress is progressing with admirable
activity in the discussion of the Donough-
more contract. Five articles have been
approved. By the first the bondholders
declare that the foreign debt of Peru is
finally cancelled. The second gives
them the railways of the State for sixty
five years. Perpetual possession did not
meet with appreciation. The third
accords to them 1000, 900 tons of guano,
although the entire amount now ex.
ported does not reach over 900, 900 tons.
The fourth gives use of the road and ap-
purtenances thereof, of the Arequipa
railway, and the fifth, the navigation of
Lake Titicaca, under the national flag
and in national vessels, with Peruvian
officers in uniform. All these have been
passed instead of the annual payment
OF ESQ, 900 for every new kilometer of the
3OS kilometers of road to be fin
ished there, the discussion on
the contract is expected to be-
soon concluded, and since the more i'm
portant features have been approved
there is no doubt concerning the fate of
the remainder. No opposition is expected
in the Senate, only five Senators being
known to be disaffected. The majority
will be sweeping.
An agreement has been signed in Bo-
gotta between representatives of British
holders of the bonds of the Columbia
debt and the Columbian Government.
This debt amounts to e2,S7S, 205, repre-
sented by bonds of different classes.
These bonds are now to be called in and
exchanged for new iesue.

official paper engraved for the use OF the
various branches of the city govern
ment. 1t contains at the right-hand cor
ner very good picture of the new City
Hall. In the center of the head there is
a scroll, on which Councilman Brown
proposed to put the names of his col
leagues and himself. There is another
blank place where the title of the office
using the paper is to be inserted.
When Mr.. Brown took the paper
around to the different city officers yes
terday they were none of them very en-
thusiastic about the way the head
was arranged. None of them ap-
peared to have any use for the
fine display of Councilmen's names
which was spread across the top of the
paper. The Police Commission wanted
to have their own names put there, and

reason why their departments, which
we're independent of the Council, should

at the way his design failed to receive

that certain members OF the city govern
ment did not cherish that admiration fol
