ARMIES IN THE FIELD
TIRE REVOLUTION IN COLOMBIA Al
IMPORTANT NATTER.
Conflict in Statements Received Here
Both Sides Have Men and
Modern Arms.

Although there is much conflict as to the
status Of the revolution in Colombia. all
advices agree that armies aggregating some
$1,000 or 10000 men have been facing each
other with sanguinary results. The Colom-
bian charge d'affaires here. Dr. Luis Cuer-
vo-Marquez. said today that the official In
formation coming from the Colombian cap
ftal, showed that the revolutionists had
been forced back to the Venezuelan from
tier. and that contrary adyices received by
the Navy Department here yesterday re-
ferred to local conditions around Panama,
unconnected with the main theater OF war
He says the government has an army of
10000 men at various points, and that the
main body Of about $4,000 men has borne
the brunt OF recent engagements. They are
armed with Mauser rifles. with Remington
smokeiess powder and have Maxim rapid
fire guns and heavier field guns Of the
Creusot make. The revolutionists also have
Mausers and MaNims, 30 that the two large
bodies have modern weapons for effective
fighting. The revoutionists have a gun
boat and another vessel used for transport
and fighting purposes. The government has
four gunboats. three on the Atlantic and
one on the Pacific side.
The revolutionists are well organized, not
only on the field but abroad with infiuen-
tial friends in this city, and two representa-
tives, Messrs. Restrepo and Guerra in New
York. According to their side of the case
stated by one of their adherents today
the conflicting claims of success are due
largely to negotiations recently carried on
as to the Panama canal. DESTROYS of Sc
curing additional war funds, the govern
ment proposed an extension of the canal
concession. whereupon the revolutioniSt
agents abroad gave notice that If the war
funds We're advanced the extension would
not be recognized in case of the success of
the revolution. DR. Cuervo- Marquee says
as to this. however, that his government
would ri a ar
news in order to advance its financial
conditions. and evidence of the re-
liability of the government claims he points
out that sthe dispatches come from his
brother. who Is minister of foreign affairs
at Bogota, andJa to IL certain extern. per-
sonal and non-political. He expresses every
confidence that the government will main
tain its control of affairs.
In some: official quarters it Is stated that
the countries adjacent to Colombia. notably
Venezuela, Ecquador and Nicaragua. are
lending assistance to the revolution and
that its effect may be more far-reaching on
that account.

OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS
SUBJECT OF SENATOR DAVIS
SPEECH TO GRADUATES.
Result of War with Spain Makes for
Peace Of the Whole
World.

PHILADELPHIA. June 12.-Alumni day
was observed at the University of Pennsyl-
vania today. the feature of the occasion be-
ing an address by Senator Cushman K.
Davis of Minnesota The program incl,ded
business meeting and an elaborate lunch
con, at which Senator Davis was the guest
of honor. Toasts were responded to by DR..
George NJ. Sternberg, surgeon general. U.
s. A; Representative Robert Adams and
others.
Senator Davis, who Is regarded as high
authority on international law. spoke on
The Foreign Relations Of the United
States" He said In part:
1.-The foreign policy of this country has
been usually of that formal character which
consists in negotiating those conventions
states. We have followed, with very few
exceptions, the wise advice Of Washington.
not to involve ourselves in entangling alli-
ances with European states. and to preserve
our peculiar and powerful isolation from
their political concerns has been the line
upon which our foreign relations have been
conducted. We have been too remote and
our latent power has been too great to be
attacked or even made the subject of seri-
GUS diplomatic aggression by European
states. sngly or in combination.
LAS to any expansion Of our domfnions,
1t has never been asserted by the most
adverse critic of our institutions that the
cause of civilization and human freedom
would not be thereby promoted.
Il think 1t can be safely said that they
who once threatened Intervention between
the United States and Spain abandoned
that desire very quickly after the momen-
tous event Of Manila and Santiago and will
never again entertain the design of a SIM
liar intrusion under any circumst ances that
we can now imagine.
Il believe that those victories have done
more to assure the peace of the world
than all of the alliances and international
concerts which have been effected during
the last fifty years"
With regard to the partition of China
Senator Davis said the United States will
command the great part Of the commerce
with the Chinese orient.

While your bells, sweet pealing from

Breathe the anthem of the free?

Fighting like beasts, as in centuries

And cruel Staying and strife goes on.

With bullets We slaughter the great

While here, as there-mald, wife, and

Are crying and praying alike for all.

In corries of one great continent,
While in another your fever-smitten
Perish in millions, famine-spent?

Shake it to all the maddened skies,
And show the nation, to ruin drifting,
How dear life is in heavens eyes!
Ye Anglo Saxons, in time take warning
Ii by the sword ye would not fall,
Let Peace shine here, as shines the morn
