More War.

WASHINGTON, December 17.-Semi-
official advices received here indi.
cate that active hostilities are about
to begin between Colombia and
Venezuela. The delay in proceed
ing to extremes has been largely
caused by the lack OF a suitable
stock of arms aud ammunition by
the Colombian Government. This
is about to be remedied.
The news that comes today is to
the effect that the Britain steamer
Ban Righ, which recently excited
suspicion by loading large cargo
OF arms in European waters, sup
posedly intended for the Beers in
South Africa, was really charter, d
by the Colombian Government.
She is now nesr Colon, and the ad-
vice is to the effect: that when her
cargo is distributed among the
Colombian troops hostilities will
begin between Colombia and Vene-
zuela.
Colon (Colombia), December II.
--Generall Carlos Alban, Governor
OF Panama and military commander
OF this district, explains Colombia's
refusal to accept the conditions OF
arbitration demanded by Venezuela
in the following statement:
General Castro, President OF
Venezuela, is the principal factor in
the Colombian revolution. Since
the beginning of the war he has
furnished the revolutionists with
arms and ammunition. Castro
cancelled the exequateurs of several
Colombian Consuls 10 Venezuela
and insultingly treated Senior Rico,
the Colombian Minister at Caracas
Castro now pretends to demand
satisfaction from Colombia, asking
her to accept Chile's offer Of media
ton. For the above expressed
reasons Colombia severed diploma
tic relations with Venezuela"

dsnce 10 the report of the capture
of Rio Hacha by General Tribe
