Troops Are Now Fraternizing.
A dispatch from Colon says that Saturday
and Sunday passed uneventfully at Colon
and Panama Both liberals and conserva-
tives are gradually resuming their custom
airy intercourse and fraternizing the one
with the other. There is no undue Boosting
on the part of the yictors nor nl-concealed
hatred on the part OF those who sympathize
with the yanquished- Consequently there
have been no disturbances nor unseemly be-
havior.
The vicinity Of Chorrera (where the lib
erals had their headquarters before the at
tack on COLON offers many facilities for in
surgent campaigns, as cattle and other food
requisites are there plentiful
A few dead bodies still remain along the
railroad line. These bodies are being
burned.
The British cruiser Tribune sailed from
Colon this afternoon for Bocas del Toro
(seyenty miles west Of Colon), where il Is
surmised the liberal forces are rising, be-
ing ignorant OF the recapture OF Colon. The
Colombian gunboat General Pinzon will
also shortly sail for Bocas del Toro.
Owing to the loss last week OF the United
Fruit Company's steamer Sunrise, commu-
nication between Colon and Bocas del Toro
is discontinued.

PORTO RLcAN LMPERLALIsTs.

Poor Porto Rico is again the victim of inJus-
tice. The critics Of the Republican Legislation
for the island should not yet retire from busi-
ness. If any of them on the proclamation of
free trade thought that their occupation was
gone and that they had got TO hunt up other
sufferers from impcrialist oppression TO weep
over, they should at once realize their mistake
and again denounce the wicked Foraker law.
1t seems that the Porto Rican coffee industry
Is threatened. The poor Porto Ricans, whose
desperate wrongs so appealed to theoretical free
traders in the months when nominal duties were
paid on commerce between the island and the
United States, find that the American tariff
does not in all respects suit their condition.
They were taught with fervid appeals to the
principles Of human liberty by the opponents OF
the administration that unless they had identi-
cally the same tariff laws as we had they were
being enslaved taxed without representation,
exploited and impoverished. Now they have
the same customs duties and absolute free trade
with the continent and yet they are in trouble.
Is 1t because our protective tariff is found TO be
A barbarOus and stupid system? Do these
unspoiled children of nature at their first expe
rience OF the evil show their hatred of IL and
protest against the ChiLese wall which shuts
them off from Spain and England and South
America and makes them, like ourselves,
prey 10 the trustsE Not a bit of il. II is not
more free trade they want, but more prOtec-
ton. The United States some years ago put
coffee on the free list. With the extension OF
our tariff laws 10 Porto Rico, coffee can be
imported there free Of duty, and the Porto
Rican planters are threatened with the extinc-
zion OF one OF their staple industries. AS a
temporary measure merchants have been forced
under threat Of boycott 10 make nOn-importa-
tiOn agreements and TO turn back cargoes OF
Brazilian coffee much our ancestors did the
tea ships though for different reason. The
Americans objected 10 taxed tea, and the Porto
Ricans desire taxed coffee. This measure is TO
be followed up by an appeal 10 Washington for
a changed Interpretation or early amendment
OF the law so as 10 levy duties coffee
imported from foreign countries or from the
United States.
Free importation Of cheap Brazilian cOffees
would doubtless be a serious injury 10 the Porto
RIcans and their interests should certainly be
considered But will our free traders who have
wept so over their hardships come 10 their res
cue now? Granting the request OF Porto Rico
would mean another step in Imperialism. IL
would mean giving the island once more a
tariff different from our own. II would run
counter 10 all the eternal principles proclaimed
Ia denuncistion Of the Foraker act. to the effect

BISSERT AND DIAMOND.

The Indictment cf Captain Diamond is the
natural sequel of the conviction of his ward
man Bissert The latter will. of course. go 10
the Court of Appeals, and has already secured
n tt,n,,orarv stay from Justice Hooker, holding
court in the far end of the State The Justice
exercised an ndoubted statutory right IN act
ing and his temporary stay means no more
than that he will hear the question of reason
able doubt raised by Bisserts counsel. and there
is no reason TO suppose that he will continue the
stay after hearing any more than that he VIII
refuse to do so. The preliminary action does
not imply any prejudgment of the case. IN
deed it is not to be expected that the justice
will Interfere. without the most convincing
proofs 20 free Bssert pending his appeal Ap-
plications of this kind are frequently made in
behalf of powerful criminals. but judges, while
always willing TO hear. are rightly slow TO stay
execution particularly when such stay as IN
this case cannot fail to encourage a notorious
gang of criminals who are with difficulty
brought TO book. Any technical errors which
NAV have been made in the trial of Bissert Will
surely receive due attention from the Court OF
Appeals. and unless errors so gigantic that a
Judge cannot question the certainty of reversal
appear. there is no reason why the courts and
the District Attorney of this county should be
checked and discouraged in their pursuit of evil
dent but strongly intrenched crime when hun
dreds Of other convicted criminals are sent to
prison pending appeals which often result in
their favor without their wrongs arousing the
conscience of any justice of the Supreme Court
There is as yet no reason TO believe that JUS
tice Hooker has any disposition TO make Bssert
an exception to the rule followed with respect
to other criminals.
Captain Diamonds case apparently is not de-
pendent on the future disposition of Bissert's.
There seems to be no question that the woman
from whom Bissert took tribute kept a dis
orderly house. Captain Diamond swOre that
she was persistent lawbreaker. Whether she
paid for protection or not, she was permitted
to run her house, and no report was made of 1t
by Captain Diamond. Failure TO report a house
of which he had knowledge was criminal neg
lect of duty, and in view of his own testimony
at the Bissert trial concerning this house it is
difficult TO see how he escape responsibility.
His indictment places Commissioner Murphy
in embarrassing position. The general dis
position has been to regard Murphy
nOnentity rather than a deliberate rascal.
In failing to suspend Diamond or put him on
trial he is subjecting his own character to sus-
piclOn He knows that the captain swore to
his knowledge of the Stuyvesant-st. house He
knows that the captain did not report on it. He
admits that such failure TO report a known or
suspected place was a violation of the depart
ment rules. When asked why he does not take
the action such a state of facts logically de-
mands he makes no answer. He knows he is
doing wrong. He dare not defend his cowardly
inaction. Yet by it he makes himself the part
ner in Diamonds offences.
