END OF A REVOLUTION
The Colombian Government Thinks
Have Lost.

WASHINGTON, June L. DIR. Cuervo
MARQUEE. charge d'affaires of the Colom-
bian legation. to-day received from Panama
bulletins giving details of the recent bloody
engagement between the government troops
and the ~revolutionists. One of the bulletins
is signed by the general in of The
government troops and reads:
II consider the revolution is ended. The
enemy. after the tight. numbered only f.0co.
and / think they cannot secure reinforce
ments. They have exhausted all their sup
ply of 1.2O0,o0 cartridges. Their loss is
1000 dead, including ten chiefs and many
subordinate officers. They have 1900 wound
ed. These figures are furnished me by the
portance."
The fight occurred near Bucaramanga. in
the district Of Palonegro. and Lebrija, and
the general forwarded his report from
Palongro, showing that the government
forces occupied the field after the night
The government losses are not stated. An
other official bulletin reports that the chief
OF the revolutionary forces, Gen. Vargas
Santos. has been captured. This is con-
frmed in an official dispatch from General
Seranno TO the government, stating that
the steamship Alicia has arrived at one or
the ports held by him with a number OF
prisoners, including Gen. Vargas Santos
Although this seems conclusive. DR. Cueryo
MARQUEE expresses some doubt as 20
whether the revolutionary chief has actu-
ally been captured.

June 14.-With the motorman
dead on the front platform. an Indiana
avenue electric car crowded with assem-
gers shot across the railroad T., ,s at
Fortieth street just ahead of a i-ht
train late last night, and for three locks
ran at full speed. with no one at tho con-
trolling lever. The motorman, II. A. Nor
gan, had fallen helpless of heart disease,
but the passengers did not realize their
danger until after 1t was over and the car
had been stopped by the conductor.
AS the car approached the railroad cross
ing the conductor heard the sound of an
approaching train. Looking ahead he saw
by the signal lights that the gates were
the bell rope and shouted TO the motorman.
He received no answer. The Waterman at
the crossing, thinking that the motorman
had lost control of his car, raised the gates
in the hope that the car would cross the
tracks before the locomotive could dispute
the right of way. His calculations were
right for the car just managed 10 clear the
crossing in safety. The giaring light Of
the engines headlight as IL swept across
the faces of the passengers and the unusual
Earring in crossing the tracks caused a
panic in the car. As soon as the crossing
had been passed the conductor rushed 10
the front OF the car. where he shut of the
electric current and found the motorman
lgkug dad on the platform.

LONDON. June 14.-Joseph II. Choate.
United States ambassador, distributed the
prizes at the twenty-fifth anniversary of
the foundation of the Legs School, Cam
bridge, this afternoon. The American ma
tional anthem was sung, after which the
prize compositions were read. the prizes
were distributed and a vote OF thanks was
EXTENDED to Mr.. Choate.
Mr.. Choate said he was honored by the
distinction conferred on him at to-day's
ceremony. as education had been the chief
industry OF the American people from the
beginning. All their industries were found
ed ON that. and all the material and moral
success they had proceeded from educa-
ton. The educational processes IN Great
Britain and the United States differed. but
the results were the same. The object was
to turn out men whose facilities were de-
veloped to their full strength and capacity
n for every man to turn out a gentle
man. He believed that God had intrusted
TO these two nations, each in its way, to
advance mankin to a better, higher and
nobler civilization.

1t is hoped by most Republicans that the
the injustice and danger which the present
system of representation in such conven-
tons involves. All of the contested seats
in the coming convention are in States in
which the Republicans do not put a ticket
in the field except in years of presidential
elections. If it were not for the offices there
would be no party organization of any scrt.
The delegations of Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana, South Carolina, Florida and a
few other States represent two factions
when the denomination of the President is
assured, no harm can come from these
delegations in the convention, but four
years hence, If the nomination should
cannot give an electoral vote and do not
even try TO do so, there is sure to be much
dissatisfaction On general principles. how
ever, representation should be based upon
the party vote in preceding elections. There
is no justice in a State which casts 100000
Republican votes having no more delegates
in a national convention than another
State which does not poll $4,000 votes. Nc
argument can sustain such an injustice.
Consequently, a convention which shall
make a unanimous nomination is the one
which should deal with the evil of a rep
resentation which represents a faction OF
place-seekers and no votes.

Now that a rival has appeared in the field
for the manufacture of armor plate in the
Midyale steel works, the Bethlehem and
Carnegie companies will not be able to fix
the prices arbitrarily. Doubtless the com
panies named can afford to make plates at
a lower figure than any other company.
consequently a considerably lower bid may
be expected from them than the price they
have demanded. The appearance of a rival

seeming monopoly commands a price in
which there are large profits. goes to con-
firm the opinion that competitors will be in
the field. destroy monopoly and break
