the Caftagena story.
Washington, Dec. S.-The dispatch

Darien, announced in kilograms from
Colon. is of great Importance and in
terest i'm connection with the rumor
from Colon of the departure of Colon
bian soldiers for the isthmus of Pan
ANA. This is about $50 miles east of
Colon, and the cruise in those waters
will enable her commander to keep in
close touch with developments in the
Colombian situation originating In and
about the vicinity of Cartagena, from
which place it is rumored the soldiers
are to march on the isthmus.
To the C0lombians in Washington
the reports from Colon produced a
mystifying effect. They will not say
whether they believe the rumors or
not. Perhaps it is so. do not know"
said one Of them, as he shrugged his
shoulders. The Colombians believe
there are 1900 or more soldiers at
Cartagena and at the various points
along the sea coast available for such
a purpose as that stated in the dis
patch from Colon, should the govern
ment desire to use them.
The commissioners from the depart
ment of Bolivar who have been In
Washington for some time with a view
to learning the United States attitude
respecting the isthmus of Panama will
leave New York on their return Jour-
ney for Colombia on Saturday. They
have secured from DIR. Herran and
General Reyes full statement of the
condition Of affairs as they exist here
and at Panama, and will carry this
news back to their government The
commissioners had no diplomatic
status; their quest was simply one of
inquiry. General Reyes is still await
ing further instructions from his gov
ernment pending any further move in
connection with his mission here.

employed detectives not connected
with the army to shadow Cert sin army
officers and report their Actions.

Commander Young testified that he
was captain of the port of Havana and
commander Of the naval station. In
the first position he was subordinate
to General Wood, but in the latter was
in no way amenable to Woods or
