MASSING OF REBELS
Situation at Panama and Colon
Said to Be Critical in the
Extreme.

Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 1.-The
British steamer La Plata arrived here
today from Colon, bringing a large
number of refugees from the isthmus.
II is reported that owing TO the fear
OF rebel attacks a great many people
are leaving Colon and Panama. The
lColOmbian government is still sending
reinfOrcements TO the isthmus and the
Plata carried 1000 government troops
from SaVanilla to Colon. The COlom-
bian revOlutionists are said to be mass
ing in the neighborhood of the isthmus.
The refugees declare the situation at
Panama and Colon TO be extremely
critical.
The officers of the Plata say they
were Informed while at Colon that sew
eral liberal sympathizers had been inn
prisOned at Panama because they ViO-
lated the order recently issued by the
government and appeared on the streets
of that city. Business at Colon is en-
tirely suspended.
The plan of the revolutiOnists would
seem to be to attack the government
forces without interfering with railroad
traffic over the isthmus

EVERYTHING Is
CUT AND DRIED
New York Republican Convention
Will Be lane Affair.
ODELL TO BE REN0MINATED
PLATFORM WILL GO EASY ON
THE TARIFF QUESTION.
ODELL TO BE REN0MINATEr

Q ARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. 21.-Not in
, many years has there been, two
nights before the assembling Of
New York state Republican convention,
such placidity as exists tonight. I'm
doubtedly this is because by far the
majority Of selections for the state tick
ct have been practically agreed upon.
Governor Odell win be renominated.
The contest for lieutenant governor
ended tonight, when it was announced
that the delegations from New York,
Westchester and Erie counties had de-
cided TO go into convention pledged for
George r. Sheldon.
Platform Talk.
There is little or no platform talk to-
day. The planks on trusts. the tariff
and canals are the only ones that cause
any discussion. the tax question having
been generally outlined in the speeches
of Governor Odell. There has not yet
been anything definitely decided on the
trust plank except that while con-
demning certain combinations of CAPT
tai there will be no appeal to congress
for drastic legislation. This statement
is on the authority of Mr.. Plat, who
added that the draft Of the plank was
not complete on the tariff question. The
indications are that a definite stand will
be taken against revision. on the
ground that the benefit TO be gained
viii be small as compared with the in
jury that will be to American indus
tries and workingmen by an opening. OF
the question Of revision.
All Framed Up.
Nearly all the party leaders are here.
A great deal of the detail of the con-
vention has been arranged Lemuel
Eli Quigg, who is TO be temporary
chairman win not be here before to-
morrow morning, and Edward Lauter-
bach, who is said TO be framing the
platform, is not yet here. Governor
OdeL will be put in nomination. by for
mer Senator LexoW Of New York. Mr..
Sheldon will be nominated for lieu
tenant governor by Senator Depew and
Assistant Secrtary Of State David j..
Hill will nominate Judge Werner for
the court of appeals.
n. n. Stranahan, collector Of the port
of New York. said tonight:
THE plank in the platform endorsing
President Roosevelt's administration
and his candidacy to succeed himself
will be as strong as any close adherent
OF the president can wish for"
Governor Odell sent word here to-
night that he positively would not come
to Saratoga during the convention. IL
had been planned that he should come
on Wednesday. the last day Of the con-
vention, so that he might be the per-
sonal recipient of the nomination. He
SAYS positively tonight he believes it
would be undignified for the governor
of New York 10 attend the convention
for any purpose.
