A Protest from Colombia.

Washington. Sept, ls.-A cableeram was received at the Colombian legation today from Governor Salazar at Panama regard ing the railroad situation on the isthmus' It is said there was no interruptloh |" traffic over the railroad and arrange rnents have been made with the railroad company to inspect their trains as they approach Colon and Panama. this step being taken to avoid sending any surrep- titious revolutionists to either of these cities. The Governor expressed the opinion that the American guards placed on the trains by direction of the com manding naval officers were not ncces- sary.
 At the legation the officials say the situation is more promising than for some time. as with the gradual addition of endorsements of Colombian troops the danger of an attack by the revolution Ists becomes less probably than before.

NO WAR CONTEMPLATED
NICARAGUA WILL NOT BE AT
 PACKED BY COLOMBIA.
Officials Contradict the Reports That President zelaya Will Be Disciplined for Aiding the
 Colombian Insurgents.

Panama, Sept. 1S.-Thc report which mas been current lately that Colombia in- tended to declare war upon Nicaragua because of the help President ZeIaya is alleged to have given the Coombian rev. olutionists, is discredited and contradicted by Colombian officials here.
 Referring to the alleged attitude of Me aragua with regard to Colombia's s internal strife. Government officials here said to- day to the representative of the Asso- ciated Press that they consider President Zelaya's reported interference in Colom- bias revolution aa @ dangerous policy for him to pursue, but that they did not blame Nicaragua for the faults of it's President. whose conduct, they declared Was disapproycd by all sensible persons in h.s country.
 Tt is believed" said one of these of- fcials, that the Nicaragua Canal sydicate has had much to do with the help General Herrera has received from Nicaragua; the syndicates idea being, of course, that the prolongation of the war in Colombia would make impossible the completion of the Panary eanal.'
 The Panama oHieiaIs declare that the Colombian Government has not intention of fighting Nicaragua; that Colombia as soon as her present revolution ended, de- sired a period of rest from warfare.
 The Government has declared that peace has been restored in the departments of Bovaca and Cundinamaroa. This decla- ration is believed to indicate the inten- ton of the Government soon to call a meeting of Congress to discuss the canal question.
 When the steamer LaPlata, which brought 1000 Government troops to Co., lon. left Savanilla. ther were nearly 1000 Government soldiers at that port await ing transportation to Panama. News was received by the LaPlata that General Palacia had arrived at Honda on the Magdaena River after seventeen days travel overland from Buena Ventura. on the Pacific coast. with 5000 men. These troops are the same which the Pacific Steam Navigation Company refused to transport for the Government from Buena Ventura to Panama.
 The arrival of endorsements on the isthmus and the presence of other troops at Savanill aae believed to have aeduced General Hesreras chances of capturing Panama or Colon to a minimum.

seems to consider the United states action as simply chivalrous and as not likely to result in practical measures ne Vossische Zeitung says that Wniie thinking Germany will do nothing. 1t still believes the United States note cannot fall to have a strong moral effect, ad- ding: That, perhaps is it's purpose. The United States does not need the pro- lection of Europe against pauper imml- grafton as it already has legislation sur ficlent to keep out undesirable immi- grants What the United States aimed at therefore, was an expression of It's reel tngs of humanity, and which notwith- standing its novelty, is an agreeble thing to see."
 The Vossische Zeitung publishes let ter from Bucharest. Roumania, saying that emigration continued and that the Roumanian Government In passing the law on the subject promised to adopt administrative regulations that would mitigate harshness. but these expecta- tions, they affirm were not fulfilled.
 The Post says: "The Roumanian Jews have mighty protectors. It Is not iohs ago that certain financial circles tnIeal- ened to depress Roumanian securities unless the government was more pliart towards the Jews. This failed ana now the Jews have the support of the Unlteo States. We do not know what attitude the signers of the Berlin treaty VIII take toward the note, but we know that all talk of the persecution of the Jews comes from incorrect suppositions as to what the new law is"
 The Post also asserts that this applies equally to all sects and races
 The Boersen Courier says: 'The pus'- ness of the Ronmanian Government now Is to reply to the accusations and bring proof that in It's treatment of the Jews 1t acts within the provisions of the Ser lin treaty and will continue to do SO.
 The Neuste Nachrtchten doubts wheth- CT the United States note Is based on ac- curate information or whether 1t will lead to any tangible result.

ENGLAND ALSO ACT.
The Roumanian Jews Subject Of
 Note.

Berlin. Sept. 1S.-The German foreign office has received a note from the British Government inviting some action on the part of the signatories of the treaty of Berlin of 1878 regarding Roumania s treatment of Jews. The British note IS shorter than that of the United States on the same subject but it pursues the same end 1t is assumed here that Great Britain knew of the United States step beforehand and acted in support thereof
 The United States action is regarded as being quite within her rights. in seek ing assistance of the signatOries in pre- venting an intuex of indlgen timmiprants, which is recognized as substantial grievance. These two notes will result in an interchange of views between the powers as to what action is feasible lA the meantime it is expected that Rou- mania will take cognizance of the nlted States protest and defend her case upon her own initiative before the signatorles.
 The foregoing represents the views or the German Government, but the press knowing nothing of the British note,

The Roumanians Compelled to Elm
 ploy Bulgarian Laborers.


 London, Sept 1S.-A dispatch from Bucharest Roumania dated Sunday. September IA, correspondent of The Daily Express says the emmigration fever among the Jews of Roumania still continued and that within the last three months 4,000 Jews have left the country. Tonight the correspondent goes on, a party of $50 left forCanada and the United States and small parties of Jews leave the largest towns of the country almost daily. Although the reason given by the immigrants for leaving is their inability to obtain work. the Jews steadily refuse to take up farm labor. Proof of this is found in the fact that within the last three years Roumania has paid for out side Bulgarian labor something like S,- 100000 which might have gone to the Jews If they would turn the hands to the light labor of Investing.
 Bulgarian laborers. the correspondent concludes. are we'll housed and excel lently fed while working on Roumanian farms.
