GENERAL BER77 HOLDS out.
LATEST WAR NEWS FROM THE ISTHAIUS
OF PANAMA

Panama. Aug. 23-Information has been OBJ
tanned here from revolutionary sources, that up
TO August II the government General Morales
Beril, who has been fighting the insurgents at
Aqua Dulce. had not surrendered Fighting IN
the Aqua Dulce district continues Gaily, but
there have been no big engagements since the
battle of July 80
The complications caused by the refusal OF
the Pacific Steam Navigation Company, OF
Liverpool, to transport troops from Buenaveh-
tura the isthnus on board the steamer Eeua-
dor are not yet ended. General Salazar. Gov
er1or of Panama, has received communication
from the Acting British Consul here, Mr.. Hud-
son. saying that his majesty's government had
instructed him to ask what protection Coiolnola
could give British vessels against destruction
by insursent forces in the event of their trans
porting troops of the Colombian Government
To this communication General Salazar replied
that the Pacific Steam Navigation Company was
obliged TO transport government troops by the
terms Of a contract made in 1879 between the
company and the national government; that this
contract should be fulfilled by the company
without the necessity of the government giving
previous guarantee of protection, and that the
insurgents could not oppose the transportation
of Colombian troops in a British vessel. be-
cause any intimation of violence or act OF Nlp-
lence on their part would expose them 20 pe
been recognized as helligerents. General Sala-
gar said further that in the event OF an IN
surgent attack upon British vessel CARVING
government troops the government "oulu oe
ready to protect this vessel with all the forces
at its command, and that the British men-of-
war now in Colombian waters had oeen sent
there with the object of protecting the interests
guaranteed by the British flag.
The Colombian Government has assembled two
thousand troops under General Nelazco at buena-
T. tran
It endeavored to compel the agents of the British
steamer Ecuador, owned by the Pacihc steam
Navigation Company, to perform this service 1hls
the companys agents refused to do, and the matter
was placed before the British Consul at Panama
Ar ,he request of the Pacific Steam Navigation
COMPANY the British cruiser Phaeton was sent to
Blenaventura to protect British interests
There is clause in the contract of 1873. referred
10 in the above dispatch, which provides that the
company shall transport Colombian civil and mill
tary employees, prisoners. mails and soldiers at
special rates.
