lie the following cablegram received
from Commander Mclean, of the Gin

Secretary of the Navy, Washington.
"Have sent following communicaT
lion to both parties:
az have to inform you that the
United States naval forces are guard
ing she railway trains and line OF
trancit across the isthmus Of Panama
from sea to sea; that no person what
ever will be allowed to obstruct, en-
barass or interfere in any manner
with the trains or the route Of transit.
This is without prejudice or any de-
sire to interfere in domestic conOen-
tons Of the Colombians.' 1850
1t was admitted by high Official OF
the navy department yesterday that
this government 10 seriously consid'
ering a further reinforcement OF the
United States marines on the isthmus.
It was stated in an authoritative
quarter yesterday that the iAforma'
ton furnished by Commander NC
Lean to the navy department plainly
showed that the naval force there is
kept constantly on its guard to make
good our treaty guarantee OF free
transit. So whatever additional force
is sent will cooperate with the ma
rines already there and those en- route
on the Panther in a close watch on
the railway.
Colon, Colombia, Sept. 20.-Eighty
bluejackets and two quick-fring guns
were landed at colon yesterday morn
ing from the United States cruiser

cinnati, has sent instructions to the

complaint, yet railway earnings thus

Relief comes slowly to consumers
Of coke, although each week brings
a new high record Of output. Stocks
are becoming burdensome in the Con-
nellsville yards, but facilities for
transportation show little improve
ment, despite numerous promises that
coke shall have precedence over other
freight. The worst effect Is the in
creasing importation Of pig iron.
Great Britain alone sending 10000
tons during August, while arrange
ments are now being made for re-
mote deliveries. Steel Is also coming
in freely, German producers accept
ing orders at gradually advancing
quotations. Estimates of the tonnage
on the book sof the leading domestic
concern fall little short Of 100000
tons, covering deliveries nine months
ahead. while new contracts for rail-
way and structural shapes are con
stantly offered. The abnormal condi
ton of this industry bears testimony
to the unprecedented expansion OF
business in the United States, and ii
is unfortunate that such heavy pur
chases abroad are made necessary by
the inadequate supply of fuel.
