Washington (Special) The United
States Vice e-Consul-General at Bogota,
Mr.. Zalamea, who has just arrived III
the United States from Colombia, called
at the State Department bearing upon
his person dispatches from Mr.. Hart
the United States Minister to Colom'
bia. According to the Vice-Consu'
there has been a coup d'etat in Co
lombia, and the Vice-President, Mar
roguin has seized the reins of power
imprisoning the President, San Gle
mente, and the Minister for Foreign
Affairs, General Palacio
Gereat confusion exists in Govern
ment affairs, several branches Of the
Government refusing to extend recog-
milton to Marroguin The diplomatic
body at Bogota is said to have adopted
a similar course. A rigid censorship
makes 1t difficult to get the truth out
of the capital, and this was one Of the
reasons why Mr.. Harts dispatches
were brought to Washington by the
Vice-Consul instead of being intrusted
to the ordinary mailbags.
The State Department is not yet pre-
pared to extend recognition Of the new
government in Colombia and will be
guided entirely by the reports made
by Mr. Hart upon conditions in Co
lombia.

The Country's Enormous Agricultural
Resources.

The COuntry's Enormous Agricultural
Resources.
Washington (SpeciaD Probably no
portion of the work of the Census Bu-
reau is Of so much interest to the
South as the agricultural division, "
said Chief Statistican Powers, who is
in charge II this branch of the bureau.
"The enumerators' sheets are not all
in as yet, but it is already known
that the returns will show that
there are in the country between
$500 900 and 100000 separate farms.
Our inquiries regarding the conditions
existing on these properties include
the tenure, live stock and general
equipment. The enumerators' returns
have been a little complicated, owing
to the number and Importance of the
questions, and we have been Obliged
to send out about $500 letters so far
in order to get reliable data to complete
our schedules. But when this infor-
nation IS all tabulated it will furnish
the country with some very valuable
facts.
"An effort is being made in the pres
ent census to get reliable data on the
subject of tenure OF farms in general,
with a view of showing to what extent
the land of the country Is being held
by landed proprietors and whether or
not farm tenancy is likely to become
the established policy In this country.
These inquiries h6ye developed no end
Of difficulties, as it has been developed
that negroes and ignorant whites have
apparently no idea Of their own affairs
Another phase OF the situation is the
difficulty of separting the partial ten
ures, which means farms operated on
shares, from those for which yearly
rent is paid
This is specially so In the South
Some OF the large plantations in that
section have been divided up into hun
dreds Of plots Of a few acres each
which are worked by the blacks on
shares. Among these people the emu
meratOrs have experienced great diff
Guilty in getting any accurate informa-
tion as to the value Of the land or pro-
ducts
Another very interesting exhibit
will be the figures on live stock. These
schedules are nearly complete, and
expect very son to be able to furnish
the statistics for the cities In these
schedules, as in the others, we have
made no arbitrary decisions, but have
endeavored to get only exact informa-
tlon. One OF the most interesting fea-
tlrcs Of this exhibit will be the dairy

figures, Every person who keeps three
or more cows and disposes of the milk
we have classified as a dairy
"The live stock question In the West
presented some difficulties, but we be.
lieve that they have been successfully
disposed Of For instance, you can sec
that cattle on the range might be in
one State to-day and somewhere else
tomorrow, as they not only travel on
the hoof extensively, but are also
transported from one grazing ground
to the other by the railroads.
"In addition to the above many other
valuable facts regarding the economic
and social position of the cultivators
Of the soil are included in our in
1uries."
