TOKYO, Dec 10. Mira Asghar
Khan, the former grand vizier of Per.
STA. has arrived here OH his way to the
United States. The reason Of his Jour
ney Is said to be that the governor of
the province of Ratch received a golden
cup containing coffee which was poi
soned and which the shah sends to Off
cials whom he wishes to Danish from
the world. The governor drank the
coffee and of course died. II was dis
covered later that the golden cup was
not sent by the shah, and the grand
vizier was accused Of the act where
upon he was dismissed Expecting
soon to receive the fatal cup in his
turn, he asked for and obtained leave
to go on a pilgrimage some miles from
Teheran, whence he fed to the coast
and then sailed for the United States.

ADDRESS ROOSEVELT
British Bondholders Send an
Unofficial Request.
PAElMES PORTION OF OLD DEBTS
ssmiOmcial Statement Says For the
Present Force of Marines win
Protect the Isthmus and
Keep Order There.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The coun-
ell Of foreign bondholders has ad.
dressed letter to President Roosevelt
setting forth the British bOndholders
position anent Panama and Colombia,
which has been forwarded by the for
eign office 20 Ambassador Durand, who
has been instructed to hand 1t unoffi-
cially to the president The letter re-
cites the history OF the Colombian debt
and asks the president to use his good
offices to secure an. equitable assump-
ton Of portion thereof by the Pana-
ma leaders.
The statement telegraphed from The
Hague to a newspaper of this city that
both Holland and Great Britain insist
that Panama shall assume liability for
$15,000000 of the Colombian debt is
emphatically denied by the council,
which points out that no such large
sum was ever dreamed of as Pana-
mas share.
Arbitration at The Hague or the per-
sonal decision Of President Roosevelt
would be quite satisfactory to the coun-
Gil.
Regarding the various reports about
the dispatch Of troops to the isthmus
Of Panama 1t is semiofficially stated
that until the senate shall have ratified
the Hay-Bunau-Yarllla treaty the adj
ministration will look to the marines to
protect the isthmus and keep order
there unless in the meantime It is learn
ed that a considerable force of Colon
bian troops Is to attack Panama. In
the latter event the protection Of the re-
public could be best accomplished by
the army, and troops would supplant
the marines. 1t may be stated, how
ever, that this government does not
expect such an emergency to arise Mt
present and is prepared TO retain the
present force OF marines in isthmian
waters until after the ratification Of
the canal treaty.
