UsuRpATIoN IN COLOMBIA.
Vice President Has Thrown the Presi-
dent Into Prison and Assumed
Control.

NEW YORK. Sept. 6.-Benito Zala-
mea, United states acknowledgement
at Bogota. reached the city last night
with dispatches to Secretary Hay from
Charles Burdett Hart, the minister to
Colombia. Mr.. zalamea brought news
OF the real state Of affairs in the eoun-
try. which has been concealed by or
ders Of the usurping president
Some time ago news was received
that President San Clemente had re-
signed and that Vice President Mario
guin had legally succeeded him. This
news was sent by cable by Marroguin
to the Colombian representatives all
over the world with instructions to
transmit It to the heads Of the various
governments. The latter were suspi-
cious Of Marroguin and delayed recog-
nizing him. Minister Hart was asked
to send fuller information to Washing
ton.
1t now appears that Marroguin did
not peacefully succeed San Clemente
but seized him. together with General
Palacio. the secretary of state. and put
them in prison at vllleta- The actual
coup d'etat took place on July 81 at
midnight.
The present state Of affairs Is an
outcome OF the contest that for the
last ten months mas been fought by the
conservatives against the liberals or
revolutionists. When this contest was
practically ended the historical wing
of the conservatives broke away from
the naturalist wing In an attempt 70
get the upper hand in the government.
The historical wing under Marroguin
6Ccided upon the coup d'etat.
Mr.. Zalamea saw President San Gle
mente in the prison at Villeta. The
president told him that lie would not
give in or recognize the new order Of
things. He was impatient for the true
state Of affairs to be made known.
Since assuming power Marroguin has
overridden the constitution, the laws
and everything else conducting himself
in a manner little short Of that Of a
military dictator. He has succeeded in
keeping the news Of San CIemcnte's m
prisonment from getting abroad ~ to
the present time.
Several Of the governors Of the differ
ent states and other agents Of the le-
gitiInate government have refused TO
recognize MdrrogJia," said Mr.. Zala.
mea. 'They have taken the stand
that San Clementn having been elected

only legitimate president The supreme
court, likewise has refused to recognize
the new go 'ernment The Conseio de
Estaco (the conseil d'etat or cabineD
has taken the same stand toward Mar.
roguin.
I'm fact there is a widespread OPP
position to him and It is not improb-
able that the naturalist wing Of the
conservatives will join forces with their
old enemies the liberals and endeavor
to overthrow him. Personally. Mario
guin is a Llaasant man who has been
driven to his present course Of action
by his party.
Eduardo Espionsa, consul-general Of
the Colombian government in New
York. was astonished to hear Of San
Clemente's Imprisonment and Mario
gums usurpatlon. He has decided not
to recognize Marrogun.

WOlcOtt said he was startled by Bevc.
ridges statement that charity did not
begin AT home. but was filtered in from
the outside. With the municipal cor
ruption that all admitted existed ii
was ridiculous To talk of appointing 2
lot of Indiana politicians in the Philip
pines and letting the reflected glory of
our republic shine across the seas to
make their administration pure and
holy. If that was so. then the islands
would Ice worth millions. though they
only consisted of lava beds and the

growing richer and the poorer classes
richer too. the time will come if we

try will shed its refulgent rays upon

Another phase of the Philippine con-
troverSy is shown in an attack made
at Chicago last week on Senator Hoar
by eX-Minister John Barrett. HOar IS
greatly wrought up over the indictment
brought against him hy the eX-minister.
Full reports of the speech are printed
in several eastern papers. with Sensa-
tional headlines and all the emhellsh-
ment that go to attract attention. HOar
bitterly reSentS charges or statements
that he is in any way responsible for the
inSurrection in the Philippines. or that he
has given encOura cement To the rebels.
He also reSentS being clasSed with the

warrant exists for calling his name
with them.
What Barrett said was that Hoars
anti-eXpansion speech. delivered in the
United States senate and Cabled to

eliminating influence that brought
about the insurrectiOn against this gov
