ANxI0USLY AWAIT BATTLE.
Victory For Government Forces
Would End Revolution.

Panama. Colombia. Aug 2-Since yes
terday the battle at Aqua Dulce has been
the sole topic of conversation here. Both
liberals and conservatives anxiously await
the result of the. engagement. which Will
go into history as one of the bloodieEr
ever foUGht in Colombia. General Nor
ales Berti is among the braVest and most
experienced generals of the conservatives
lie has from 5000 to $500 fine soldiers,
and his forces are strongly entrenched.
General Herrera is undoubtedly the best
military leader the reVOlutiOnistS have
u is believed he has 1900 men. but the
terrific charges upon the entrenchments
by his troops prove that they are OAR
ingly valiant.
The result of the battle at Aqua Dulce
cannot be predicted. but all agree that
if General Herrera wins. the scene will
be repeated here. for General Salazar,
governor Of Panama. says he has 1000
men strongly entrenched. and says he
will fight as long as his ammunition and
soldiers last.
A government victory at Aqua Dulce,
II is believed. means the end of the rev.
Olution.

Englishmen Dispute Duffey's Record.

Arthur F. Duffey's record of 9 So
seconds for the 10e-yard dash, which
was made at the intercollegiate cham
pionship on May 81. is not credited by
the English athletic authorities, by "a
single athlete, athletic authority or of
fetal. Some say that it is not in Duff
fey: others say that the climatic con-
ditiOns are different. The majority of
them hold. however. that the Yankee
watches run fast; or, in other words,
the American timekeepers don't know
their business. This is rather a hard
knock when il is taken into considera-
ton that the best timers of the coun-
try were at the intercollegiate meeting
when DHffey made his record. 1t must
be said in justice to the EngIishmen
that their methods differ from the
Americans in timing.
In stopping the watch the Yankee
clicks the hand when the tape is
, reached. while here they wait for the
tape to break. These differences might
be of practically no Importance in long
races, but account for nearly a fifth
of second in a 100-yard dash. How
ever the fact remains, with all theiI
explanations, much to<the satisfaction
of all the Americans on the island
that Duffey had not had to- extend
himself for the best men they could
produce
