TRAFFIC FREE AGAIN.
Danger Of Battle In the isthmus Is
Believed to Be Removed.

Panama. Colombia, September 25-Traf-
fic across the isthmus is free and part Of
the revolutionary army having retreated
to Aqua Dulce, the danger of a battle on
the isthmus is believed to be removed.
In a communication sent to Commander
Mclean of the United States cruiser Gin
einnati Governor Salazar has endeavored
to demonstrate that the Colombian gov
eminent has here all the forces necessary
to protect the lives and property of all
foreigners and to guarantee their rights.
The governor adds that he is DESTROYS
of having pointed out to him a single
case where the lives or property of for
eigners have been menaced. and conse-
quently he holds that the landing of the
United States marines was not justified.
He says he considers 1t an attempt to
assume the sovereignty of Colombia, pro-
tests against it and states that he will
hold Commander Mclean responsible for
whatever may happen as the result OF
the marines landing. In the meantime
$50 American marines remain here to
protect American interests.

WORKING FOR BIG FAIR.
Secretary Hay Instructs All Consular
Officers to Secure Exhibits.

Washington, September 25.-Secretary
Hay has sent urgent Instructions to all
of the United States diplomatic officers
abroad to do everything within their
power to insure displays at the Worlds
Fair exposition at St Louis from the
countries to which they are accredited.
The purpose was not only to insure
considerable individual displays by great
manufacturers and merchants but also
to have the various governments them
selves make national exhibits, as the
features of international fairs usually
have been the most interesting. Encour-
aging reports are coming in now and
one just received from Commissioner
General John Barrett conveys the graft
flying announcement that China, Japan
and Korea will contribute to the fair on
a much more extensive scale than they
have undertaken in any preceding inter-
national exposition.

IRON AND STEEL MARKET.
Movements In the Trade Are Now En-
tirely Consistent.

Cleveland, o.. September 25.-Discussing
market conditions this week the Iron
Trade Review says:
The movements in the iron trade are
not entirely consistent, but there has
been little change in the main factories
in the situation. Conditions in the open
hearth and Bessemer steel markets differ,
the former being firm, while the latter
is yielding. Foreign steel Is higher, COIN
cidentally with the weakness in domes-
tic Bessemer billets. The difference that
has existed for weeks between imported
and domestic billets Is thus reduced to
less than 81 ton. While German basic
Bessemer could be had a week ago at
$2S. Pittsburg district 500 is now quoted
and the eastern quotations is $3.50 as
against $3.50 ten days ago.
Domestic bllets for delivery this year
have sold at $31 Pittsburg, and 1t is
stated that it can now be shaded. There
has been additional buying of foreign
Bessemer iron for the Pittsburg district
In the past week, and It is estimated
that the total bought thus far is about
1000 tons 1t Is the expectation that
little, if any, more foreign Bessemer
will be taken.
Promises of ample locomotive and car
supply to move Connesslville coke have
been better kept in the past week and pig
iron output has been increased. Domes-
tic Bessemer pig output has sold in the
week at s21 at furnace for delivery next
year, for this year $22 at furnace is asked
The foreign iron continues at substantial
" good prices though the British market
has advanced a trif1e.

WILL OPEN THE FRONTIERS.
People of Bremen and Hamburg Want
Foreign Live Stock.

Berlin, September 25.-The legislative
assemblies of Bremen and Hamburg have
voted by large majoritics In favor Of
opening the frontiers to foreign live
stock. A long list of cities previously
took the same action.
The executive committee of the Ma
tional Butchers association, answering
an agrarian circular denying that there
is a meat scarcity, points out that the
swine slaughtered have declined % per
cent in two years and that prices have
risen so per cent.
Facts like these place the government
in an awkward position. They strengthen
the government in resisting the agrarian
demands, but the government is unable
to use the facts to full advantage be-
cause the attitude of the ministry has
been to treat the rise in the price of meat
lightly, Herr Won Poblielski, Prussian
minister of agriculture, saying the high
prices are merely an annual occurrence
while animals are waiting for the potato
crop for fattening purposes.
The socialists are making capital of
the situation.
