THE CANTEEN QUESTION
General Funston's Report Calls
Forth a Statement From Anti
Saloon League.

Springfield. O.. Oct 5-Edwin Dinwid-
die. president of the American Anti-Sa-
loon league. gave out the following state
ment TODAY with reference TO the attitude
of the league on the army canteen:
If such reports as that published from
General Funston are correct. two things
are apparent First. the canteen or beer
selling army saloons so debauched the
men in the service that these conditions
of drunkenness and disorder exist. not
bv reason of its abolition. but because
its presence during twelve years has had
demoraiizing effect on officers and
men. second. when generals and COM
handing officers are ready to state that
they cannot maintain discipline without
a beer saloon. il is certain proof of their
incomDetency.
I'VE demand a fair trial of the post ex-
change system with the canteen elini-
mated. Congress- appropriated $4,000 10
improve the mems condition and added
5 cents daily TO their rations. a laudable
change in the governments policy. The
people will never consent 10 the return
OF the canteen without trial OF this
system"

THE TREATYNOT RESPECTED
Rear Admiral Casey Acting Under ORDERS Refuses Colombia
Rights Guaranteed by the Convention Of IS46
With That Country

II ANAMA. Oct. s.-After the con-
ference held last week by Cen
eral Salazar. governor Of Pan
anna: Colonel Nader. of the Colombian
forces on the isthmus, and Commander
Mclean of the United States cruiser
Cincinnati, no further difficulties were
feared, for IL was believed that Gen
eral Salazar was satisfied that the
landing of American marines on the
isthmus had for its only object the
maintenance OF free railroad transit
between Panama and Colon. The ar
rival at Colon of Rear Admiral Casey
on the battleship Wisconsin. however.
has quite changed the situation. II
now appears that the instructions
brought by Rear Admiral Casey, TO
the effect that the transportation Of
arms, of unarmed military employees
of the government or of war material
OF any kind, by the Panama railroad,
may result in serious complications.
Conference With Casey.
At a conference with Admiral Casey
yesterday on board the Wisconsin. Gen
eral Salazar said that the United
States according to the convention of
1886, had contracted two inseparable
obligations. namely, TO guarantee pos
itlvely and effectively free transit
across the isthmus. and to guarantee
in the same manner the rights of SOW
ereignty and property which Colombia
possesses over the isthmian territory.
He said further that if the Colombian
government is not allowed TO trans
port its troops and war material by
rail over the isthmus. not only does
the United States not fulfill its obli-
CATION, but 1t attacks Colombia's rights
of sovereignty and violates all prin-
ciples of morality and justice; that he,
as the representative of the nation and

government, could not accept such an
Interpretation OF the conveRtioa. and
against which he must energetically
protest
Violation of Treaty.
Governor Salazar said that an in
depreciation of the convention of 1876
which did not permit Colombia to
transport its troops and war materials
over the isthmian railroad. constructed
on its own territory. while allowing
other nations and even those openly
In rebellion to transport war material
over the road under the protection of
American marines. must necessarily be
entirely erroneous.
To General SalaZar Admiral Casey
answered that he was complying with
instructions received. He also said
that he would consult with Washing
ton and see what could be done in
the matter 1t Is the general impress
sion in Colombian circles here that
Admiral Casey has fnisinterpreted his
instructions.
viii Affect Canal.
It is considered fortunate that Cen
eraI Salazar has acted prudently in
this matter. and that cordial personal
relations exist between him and Ad-
miral Casey, as these facts may do
much toward preventing the very seri-
Gus complications which are now
thought TO be imminent. 1t is believed
by COlombians here that unless the
Washington authorities send instruc-
lions TO their representatives on the
isthmus which do not have the ap-
pearanee of attacking the sovereign
rights of Colombia, the manner of
handling the isthmian question which
does attack Colombia's sovereignty
may decide the vote of the Colombian
congress on the canal bill.
