FOREIGN INTERESTS IN PANAMA SAFE.

Senior Julio z. Cordovez, Inspector-GeneraI of
Telegraphs in the Republic OF Colombia who is al
present in this city, has received word from Panama
in regard to the rebellion. He informed that
after bloody battle which lasted for three days
between the Government troops and the insurgents
the latter surrendered. Their action, which
some surprise was directly due to the arrival of Gen
eral CampOS Serrano, Governor of Panama, who
came from BaTapquilla with renforcements. The
rebels signed treaty of peace with General Alban,
who is Secretary of the Government of Panama. and
was in charge of the city during the Governors
absence. No damage done any of the build
ings in Panama and foreign interests have not
suffered

A cable message was received yesterday at the
Colombia Consulate in this city from General
Losada who was in command Of the Government
forces at Panama. He wounded in the battle
which was fought last Tuesday at that place and
his dispatch sent partly to relieve the anxiety
OF relative in this city, DR., NJ. A. Losada who
lives at No los West Fortieth-st. The message
said that the Generals wound was healing and
that the victory complete.
The clerks of the Consulate in this CITY said that
the Colombian Consul-General to Paris had Just
reached this city from Colombia. Through him
they learned that General Chuax one of the rebel
leaders had left TumaCo island in the Pa
ciic, and joined forces with the rebels at Panama
So the surrender of the insurgents at Panama
meant that the island of Tumaco was now under
control of the Government.
Communication with Bogota, which had been in
terrupted for several weeks has lust been re-
stored As Bogota is hundreds of miles inland
from Buenaventura the cable port 1t is contended
at the Colombian Consulate here that the two de-
partments, Cauca and Tolima. through which the
telegraph lines pass. are in the control of the

ference adjourned to-day without ordering all
the mills in the country to be shut down bring
ing about any Of the other dire results predicted.
The members were in session only about three
hours. and when the meeting over Judge
Gary. as spokesman for the conference, gave out
the following statement:
Undue prominence has been given to the meeting
of representatives of The iron and steel interests.
The presidents and managers of the leading produc
ers of iron have been in consultation concerning
the general situation, and have been frank In eX-
pressing opinions N regard to the policy which
each intends to apply TO the business of his com
pany There has been Is agreement dis
agreement concerning future action However, 1t Is
tory the demand is not equal TO the production the
should be curtailed until conditions change.
This statement does not furnish a detailed report
of all that talked about in the conference of
course. and the language of the last sentence is
such that 1t may be regarded covering a tacit
understanding that all the blast furnaces and
steel mills are TO be closed down if any wants
TO read it that way. The statement does not
specifically deny the rumors that the mills are TO
be closed. 1t takes notice of them, but 1t rep
resents the sentiment of the conference, and may
be accepted a guarantee that the sensational
advance rumors concerning the meeting will not be
realized.
Judge Gary declined to add anything TO the writ
ten statement he gave out, but other members
of the conference said that 1t fully represented all
that done. One of them said:
We did not make any agreements. and did not
attempt to do The sentence regarding the cur
tanent of production in districts where it hap
common sense. 1t does not pay to produce more
steel and iron than can be sold, any more than it
