VICTORY OF EoUADoRIAN IN
sURGENTs.

BY Clever Strategic Military Opera
tions They Captured the Capital
of an Important Province.
PANAMA, Dec. 28.-Ecuadorian po-
litical exiles here have received
telegram through the Columbian
frontier saying that Tulcan was
taken recently by invading revolu-
tionary forces under General Riva-
denevia, defeating the government
troops.
The Call. Herald correspondent at
Guayaquil confirms this news. The
invaders pretended to march on
Ibarra with the intention of inter-
cepting the artillery on the way
from Quito for General Arellano's
forces in Tulcan.
To Illustrate the revolutions
strategic plans General Arellano
abandoned his military positions
around Tulcan, marching out all his
forces to prevent the artillery falling
into the enemy's hands, Immedi-
ately after the rebels had occupied
the town General Arellano returned,
trying to reoccupy his lost positions,
which at last accounts were still
held by the invaders.
Important details of the signific-
ant battle are momentarily expected.
The invading army is said to be
largely composed of Colombian
contingent. Tulcan is situated on
the Colombian frontier. 1t is the
capital of Carchi province and is
we'll fortified. Ibarra is situated be-
tween Quito and Tulcan.
New YORK, Dec. 2S.-A recent spe-
cial cable to the Call and Herald
from Panama stated that owing to
attempts Of the revolutionists to in
wade the country simultaneously
from the Colombian and Peruvian
frontiers the Council of State had
conceded extraordinary powers to
President Alfaro, who had assumed
dict atorship over the country.

How President Dole Abandoned
Neutrality.
How

Neutrality.
A severe attack upon President
Dole and his Cabinet has been for
some time in progress, on the
ground that in their abandon ment
of neutrality last May, in favor of
the United States, they acted with
great reluctance and hesitation,
showed cowardice, and were finally
driven to it by the force of public
sentiment. In their defense, an Ella
borate historical statement has been
published in the p. G. Advertiser.
So much emphasis and publicity
has been given to this matter, that
it seems due to the Government for
The Friend to express it's clear con-
viction that the imputation of
cowardice and unpatriotic conduct
is wholly groundless, and that Mr..
Dole and his associates acted in the
affair with great promptness and the
most loyal regard towards the
United States.
The sentiment of leading men in
Honolulu was greatly divided, and
rather preponderated towards main.
tanning neutrality and observing our
treoty with Spain. Immediately
upon learning of the declaration OF
war, Mr.. Dole offered to Washing
ton the unreserved alliance of Ha-
waii. This was on May 10th, one
day before the surprising news of
Dewey's victory at Manila. But for
that destruction of the Spanish fleet
in the Pacific, Hawaii would have
remained exposed to Spanish rep.
risals for violation of treaty. 1t ia

show more hesitation in acting
