Frightful State OF Affairs on the
ISthmus,

PANAMA, May 14.-Never in its his
tory has the isthmus presented the
scene it offers to-day. Thousands of
people out of work, busy centers of
activity along the canal abandoned and
many hundreds of houses deserted by
their former residents. The smaller
villages are almost uninhabited. Colom-
bian interior papers have been pub
fishing extensive articles respecting the
probability of assistance being obtained
in the United States for the completion
of the canal. and they are most unani-
nous in expressing the opinion that it
is absolutely requisite not to withdraw
from the United States. but rather to
take advantage of its immense power
and gigantic Influence to conclude with
its assistance the perfection of the
isthmus, to trade and advance under its
shadow, and always to remember that
the road for the future advancement of
Spanish America does not lie in the
direction of Europe, but in the direc-
ton of the states Of the North.

PANAMA, May 4.-The following is a
translation from an article headed
''War," which lately appeared in the

lence-whieh is the most eloquent proef
of the probabilities of an Immediate war.
The question is a serious one, and we
pray that God will not allow the gov
ernment to throw US into war which
will cost much money, and, what is
worse, the blood of our brothers. Ru-
mors assert that the Brazilian govern
ment can do nothing to prevent con-
flict between Bolivia and Paraguay
since our government has suffered
check from the first power. which will
seize the territory in dispute. 1t is also
evident that treaty of alliance exists
between Brazil and Paraguay, and one
which, whilst strengthening the repub-
lie, guarantees the interests of Brazil.
There is 10 doubt that we
are preparing for war, since
everything indicates that one is
imminent. The government is the only
responsible party in this matter. and it
will have to give an answer to the coun-
try, but what this answer will be God
only knows. Now that the honor of the
Brazilian flag can only be sustained by
bathing it in the blood of our brothers

Brute.

Special to the Globe.
LA CROSSE, Wis, May 13.-The fa-
nous gallows tree in the court house
yard would have borne fruit again last
night had the sheriff be en- little less
cautious. As the farmers of the town
of Campbell learned all the facts about
the assault on Mrs. Arthur Tripp by
!. Paul Koss-sO much worse than has
Ubeen reported-they became enraged
beyond endurance. and spent all day
Sunday devising plans for vengeance.
In the evening party of so
or 100 gathered at Hawkins
Corners, and at 10 o'clock started for
town in dozen or more farm wagons.
An officer was watching and drove rap
idly TO the city, so that the sheriff had
time to remove his prisoner from the
Jail. About II O'Clock the party arrived.
surrounded the Jail and demanded the
prisoner. The sheriff assured them that
he was not there, and allowed a COM
mittee to search the premises. When
they were convinced that Koss was gone
they went quietly home. They were
nearly all substantial farmers and re-
sponsible men. 1t is now known
that Koss succeeded in outraging Mrs.
Trip while she was insensble. What
makes matters Still more outrageous is
the fact-that the last legislature in try
ing to amend the law furnishing that
crime, bungled it so that the act pun
ishing this crime on woman above the
age of consent is entirely repealed. The
best lawyers here say Koss cannot be
convicted of anything worse than simple
assault, for which the extreme penalty
is six months. There is probably not a
man in La Crosse except the sheriff's
officers but would betray the where
abOuts of kOSs il they knew.
