STORY OF THE FIGHT.
Gen. Patino, of the Attacking Force,
Is Killed at the Start

COLON, Colombia, Nov. 20.-On receipt
Of the news that Gen. AIban, the military
commander of the Isthmus had started
to attack the Liberals at Chorrera, near
Panama, the latter detached $50 men, un-
der Gen. 'Patino, to attack Colon. This
force embarked on board a train bound
from Panama to Colon yesterday evening
at Las Cascades station, previously cut
ting off telegraphic communication
across the Isthmus. On arriving at the
outskirts Of Colon, where the government
usually maintained small guard. the
Liberals left the train, and in the initial
skirmish, which began soon afterwards.
Patio was killed.
The command of the Liberals then de-
vofyed on Col. FREDERICK Barrera, and
they continued their march on Colon, ar
irving there few minutes after the train,
thus surprising the whole town. The gov
eminent troops at Colon were outnumber-
ed by the Liberals.
Fighting Immediately began at the
Quartet (barracks), which was soon taken.
There Senior Jaen, judge of the crim-
inal court, was killed, and Senior Muskus,
the district representative of the depart
ment of the interior, was mortally wound
ed Fighting subsequently occurred at
the town hall, which was also taken by
the Liberals. Among the prisoners cap
tured by the Liberals were the project,
guardia and the cOmmandante of police.
Senior Paroles. the mayor. managed to
reach the gunboat Gen. Pinzon, which
sailed last night for a destination un-
known, probably Carthagena The whole
affair was over In less than three hours.
Communication with Panama was re-
stored today. This revealed that no fight
ing had occurred there, that everything
was quiet and the city still In the hand
of the government. News of the capture
of Colon reached Panama when commune
cation was restored this morning, and
was great surprise to the inhabitants of
that city.
The issue now depends upon the result
of the fight which Is now doubtless oc-
curing at Chorrera, news of which is
anxiously awaited here. The Liberals are
busy raising re-enforcements locally.
They are reported to have several hun
dred men at different railroad stations be-
tween here and Panama. The United
States gunboat Machias landed a detach-
ment of marines here this morning. They
are now guarding the railroad station and
other property of the road.

IOWA CITY, Iowa, Nov. 20.-These are
troublous times for the University OF
Minnesota. The entire football West
could be raked with fine tooth comb to
find football coach who would be will
ing to be in Coach Williams position
under any circumstances. For a great
many things are about to happen. They
center around the playing of Quarter
back Dobie in the Wisconsin Minnesota
game against the formal protest Of the
University of Wisconsin. Minnesota had
all the Benefit of the example of the UNI
versity of Iowa in not playing Williams,
though he was protested but five minutes
before the game. In the face of this ex-
ample Minnesota played her protested
player The action subjects Minnesota to
the action of the conference which meets
in Chicago after the Thanksgiving day
games The conference will at least
censure the University of Minnesota. and
lucky will Minnesota be If she is able
to make her peace as easily as old Prof.
Stagg, Of Chicago last year for playing
Atwood against Iowa's protest. Mime
sofas case is aggravated, and, In the
opinion of some, it will be difficult FOR
Minnesota to obtain any more big games
on her schedule because of her action in
playing Dobie This is the most usual
method for the members of the confer
ence to indicate their opinions toward a
recalcitrant member.
Should Minnesota be able to make her
peace with the conference; it will prob
ably only be done after she has had the
pleasure Of drawing up in binding Ian
guage the opinion of the conference on
one or two points which should govern
amateur athletics in the West One is
that protests should not be made five
minutes before the game and the other
is that players on professional teams like
the Carlisle Indian team be not allow I'd
in games played under the conference
rules.
Minnesota's act in protesting Williams
at the last moment was particularly felt
by the Iowa authorities to be an unjust
blow, but Iowa did not play Williams
Iowa goes to the conference meeting
with clean hands, said an Iowa man to-
day, land she will push that Dobie mat
ter and a few other things. She has the
best right of any conference member to
bring in long howl and l guess she will
come pretty near doing it.. The constant
protesting of the best men of both the
Wisconsin and Minnesota teams raised
a storm of protest that will inevitably
bear it's fruit in the conference meeting.

TRAP LAID FOR ALBAN.

NEW YORK, Nov 2O-Dr. Restrepo,
head of the Colombian junta in this city,
gave out statement in which he says:
Gen. Alban. with LOO men and six
field pieces. started to attack our forces
at Chorrera fifteen miles from Panama.
We have 5000 men there, and according
to numbers we might be expected to de-
feat Gen. Alban. Yet he is confident he
can route US. His confidence IS based
on the belief that our force under Gen.
BENJAMIN Herrera, with Gen. Lugo in
immediate command, is poorly armed and
equipped. Therein lies the trap. We
have 5000 stands of arms, which have
been sent from New York within the last
three months. We have artillery also.
Gen. Alban will find that he has made
the mistake Of his life in attacking us,
for that is what we have tried for
months to tempt him into doing.

NEW YORK, Nov 2O.-Two dispatches

said that the town had been captured by
the Liberals; that men from the Machias

The later message was that the wires be-
tween Panama and Colon, which had
been down, were in working order: that
everything was quiet and that work was
going on as usual on the piers.
In the office Of the secretary of the
company it was said that no interruption
of traffic was expected. as both sides had
