Will Not Aneot nr,,,sn Attitude.

London, Nov. 14.-From inquiries
made here it is believed that President
Roosevelts reception of Philippe Bu-
nau-Varilla, as minister of the republic
of Panama, will not affect the attitude
Of Great Britain towards Panama.
While the British government is quite
willing to leave the arrangement of
affairs at the isthmus to the United
States. 1t does not desire to commit
itself to recognizing Panama's inde-
pendence until assured that it has been
established. Thus far Colombia has
made no protest here against the new
oder of things.

TURKEYS SCARCE.
High Prices the Thanksgiving Dny
Prediction by Chicago Deal
ers in Poultry.

Chicago, Nov. 16.-Thanksgiving
turkeys will cost consumers much more
than they did last year, according to
South Water street dealers. The opin-
ion is based on reports from reliable
dealers throughout the sections which
supply the Chicago market. In some
parts of Indiana, Missouri and Tennes-
see the turkey crop almost has been
failure, owing TO the wet weather pre-
vailing when the birds were young,
which is fatal to a large percentage Of
the hatch. In parts OF Illinois, Wiscon-
sin and Iowa there is similarity of
conditions, and conservative dealers es-
innate the shortage of the present crop,
as compared with that of last year, at
fully 40 per cent. Altogether the situa-
ton indicates an advance of from rs to
80 per cent. over the prices last year.

ASKS FOR ASSISTANCE.
Presidents for Support in War
to Retukc Panama.

Bogota, Nov. 12.-Oelayed in trans
mission.)-President Marroquin has
made strong appeal to the Latin
American presidents for support in a
war to retake Panama. He declares
Colombia will resist by all possible
means in her power the separation of
the isthmus, and adds that the plentiful
resources and patriotic blood of the
nation will be used, if necessary, TO pre-
vent the independence Of Panama The
publication of the presidents message
has caused intense feeling at the cap
ltal. On every side the government has
been assured of financial support and
banks have offered their capital to aid
in reconquering the rebellious prov
ince. Patriotic individuals have ten
dered their wealth and services and
many committees have been formed
to raise funds to prosecute the cam
paign. There is great confidence, how
ever, that Gen. Reyes mission will
meet with success. President Marro-
quin is also hopeful of favorable re-
plies from his message to the neighbor-
ing presidents.
London, Nov. 1.-THE Colombian
authorities have cabled to London a
lengthy protest against the United
States action towards Panama, in
which they claim that the main re-
sponsibility for the secession of Pana-
ma lies with the United States govern
ment, firstly, by fomenting the sep
aratist spirit, of which there seems to
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"
Colon, Nov. 1S.-The Panamanian
commission, composed of Seniors Arias,
Morales and Arosemona, which left Pa
mama Monday to meet the peace commits
sion from the department of Bolivar,
boarded the Mayflower Tuesday and held
a short conference with the Colombo
ans, who only represent the department
of Bolivar and the governor OF that de-
partment, and who have no credentials
from Bogota. The Colombians asked
the Panamanians if they would return
to the republic of Colombia, assuring
them concessions and considerations on
the passage of canal treaty.
The Panamanians replied that they
would not return to the republic of Co.
lombia, and declared the assurances
came too late, as Panama's position was
so advantageous and strong that they
could see no reason for changing.
Senior Insignares, in answer, expressed
his deep sorrow at finding that the hopes
of reconciliation were impossible of
realization and that the actions of the
people of the Isthmus of Panama were
irrevocable. He declared that all the
people of Colombia would unite in an
effort to enforce the rights of the repub-
lie on the Isthmus of Panama, even at
the cost of great sacrifices.
