COLOMBIA urrER> A PROTEST


London. Nov 1.-THE expected pro
test Of Colombia against the proceed
ingS OF the United States on the 18TH
mus of Panama has arrived here. The
salient point of the document. which
as quite long. * that the main re-
sponsiblity for the secession of Pana-
ana lies with the United States gov
eminent, firstly. by fomenting the sep
aratist spirit. of which there seems 10
be clear evidence; secondly, by hastily
acknowledging the independence of the
revolted province. and finally. by pre-
venting the Colombian government
from using proper means to repress
the rebellion"
The paper says that the Colombian
government has protested TO the Unit
ed States and sends the protest to Eu-
rope that the reasons therefor may
be known TO the civilized world. 1t
declares that the United States have
ignored article 81 of the treaty of 1916,
which provides that the United States
shall guarantee the sovereignty Of Co
lombia over the isthmus Of Panama.
and also that the Colombian govern
ment denies the assumption that il has
stood in the way of an isthmian canal.
On the contrary it points out that
since 1885 Colombia has granted canal
privileges TO different people no less
than nine times. The protest also says:
'"Thc hastiness i'm recognizing the new
government which sprung mp is under
these circumstances all the more sur
prising to the Colombian government.
as they recollect the energetic opposi-
ton of Washington to the acknowl-
edgmcnt Of the belligerency of the Con
fedcrates Ivy the powers during the
civil war"

FEDERATION OF LABOR
Brief of the Proceedings at the National
Convention Now i'm Session
at Boston.

Boston. Nov. 1.-Two spirited de-
bates enlivened what would otherwise
have been a dull session at the con
vention of the American Federation of
Labor. The first was upon the ques-
ton of whether the Federation should
grant a charter TO the insurance agents
of the country, and after a somewhat
acrimonious discussion the matter was
referred to the executive council.
The second debate was upon the sub
ject Of industrial depression. Sever
al delegates expressed their 'opinion
that GOmperS forecast was true. They
urged as a possible preventive not only
organization on trades union lines. but
also the formation of a political organ
ization by labor workers. Fifty or more
resolutions were disposed of during the
day, many calling for the appointment
of organizers for western and southern
states being referred.

Paine'S
Compound
CURES RHEUMATISM.

Rheumatism, which does its terrible work
in the muscles, joints, and tissues, is caused by
uric acid which gathers in the blood. To get
rid of this poisonous acid which produces the
irritations, pains, agonies, infammations, and
swellings peculiar to rheumatism, Palne's
Celery Compound should be used without
delay. No other medicine gives such prompt,
cheering, and happy results. Ii IS the only
medicine that prevents a return OF the dreaded
disease. Paine's Celery Compound braces
the nerves, the blood is quickly cleared OF all
irritating poisons, tissue and muscle are built
up, and the digestive organs perfectly toned.
Do not treat with indifference the slightest
rheumatic symptoms; the early use OF Paine r
Celery Compound will save you weeks aiv
months of suffering. Mr.. ). ID. Conway,
St. Louis, Mo-, was permanently cured by
Paines Celery Compound after repeated iall-
ures with other medicines and physicians; he
says:-
u am o. years of age. and have lived IN
St. Louis 81 years, and all this time with the
exception of three years, have served in the
Engineers Department as Inspector. Last
winter | contracted rheumatism and was laid
up | tried all remedies and doctors, but all
failed until struck Paine's Celery Compound,
which has made a permanent cure in my case.

have used il with the same result"

There is much speculation as to what
the defense VIII do; whether any of
the jurors who sat in the case will
be called 10 testify, OF whether the
several men who have been mentioned
by Sutton as being employed by llol-
brook Will bc sworn in regard to the
testimony Sutton has given about
them. Ever since Holbrook had his
first hearing, when the names Of 9th

been an open question whether other
