Revolution in Colombia Promises
to Cause Some Delay.
Washington, July 29-The rejection OF
the propositions made by the Colombian
government to Gen. Vargas Santos, the
leader of the Colombian Liberals, who for
thirty-eight months have been waging
war against President Manoguin. has en-
Outraged the ministers from Nicaragua
and Costa Rica to hope that the isthmian
canal ma yet be constructed by the
Nicaragua route.
This government expects to purchase
the Panama canal. and the state depart
ment has practically completed a new
treaty with Minister Concha, represent
Ing Colombia. The success Of the nego-
t~iations depends on the election Of a con-
gress in Colombia to ratify the treaty.
There has been no congress in that coun-
try for three years, and Gen. Gabriel Var
gas Santos says that the Liberals will
keep up the fight for three years more.
Gen. Vargas Santos has rejected the pro-
posal Of Minister Concha for peace. and
1t Is regarded as impossible to have a
congress in Colombo until there is peace.
The Colombian Liberals are receiving aid
from Nicaragua, and 1t Is suspected here
that this aid Is for the purpose Of pre-
venting a congress in Colombia to act on
the canal treaty. 1t will be impossible
to close the negotiations for the transfer
Of the Panama canal concession to the
United States without a Colombian con-
gress to ratify the treaty.
This government Is not willing to wait
three years for Colombia to ratify the
treaty before proceeding with canal con-
struction, and unless some agreement is
reached within the next few months by
which there will be a congress to ratify
the treaty for Colombia the president
may have to drop the Panama PROPOSE
ton and resume negotiations with
Nicaragua and Costa Rica for the con-
cession for the Nicaragua canal.
"he minister of Nicaragua Is still hope
full that he will secure the canal by the
old route, as his government is ready to
close negotiations and grant a concession
on the terms Of the United States.

Roaming ON the Plains in the

After strenuous efforts, lasting two
months or more, all stray horses in
the vast region embracing the coded
Sioux lands, between the Missouri river
and the Black Hills, in Western South
Dakota, have been rounded up. This
was the first thorough horse roundup
for several years. and required the SER
vices of a small army Of men.
The roundup al this time was due
TO the good prices brought by range
horses. A few years 6 they were
valueless, and owners turned them
adrift by thousands, to roam at will
over an area as large al some Of the
Eastern states.
Horses whose present market value
is between $50. 900 and 500, 900 were
re unded up and again placed upon the
range Of the owners. preparatory to
being shipped to the Eastern markets.
All the animals were found in good
condition, showing that they had not
been injured by their several years
abandonment on the great plains Of the
state.

The growth of the latter was very

condition Of the ground, corn is grow

Parts Of the state which last year,

For several years prior to the pres
