THE PARIsBANKERs KEEP THE


 If a story (which comes on such ex- cellent authority that it can hardly be doubted1 be true, the Columbians, not long ago, were "done out of" what they thought was a very nice little deal on the Panama canal. During the recent war. when the government was partic- ularly hard pressed for funds. certain members of the government remem- bered that the Panama concession had nearly terminated, and arranged, on their own responsibility, to renew it to the company for a very moderate sum. As the Colombian constitution renders a renewal of the concession valid only af- ter the sanction os congress. this was an act of doubtful legality, but the members of government concerned were prepared to take good deal of risk for a small sum of ready money. Unfortunately for them, the whole amount was paid to certain bankers representing Colombia in Paris, who, when asked to pay over the funds re- piled hat they would be pleased to cred- x 1t the amount to the government ac- count. but as the Government was still in their debt, they, much to their regret, could not see their way to further ad- yancest Whether this is entirely &C., curate or not, it is certain that the gov- ernment got little or none of the money. ---Archibald k. Colauhoun in the Out look.
