Panama Nov. IS An American tray.
cling man who has just arrived here
from Buenayentura on the steamer Ma
navi after a stay Of twenty days in the
department of Canca reports that the
feeling Of unrest in Cauea and Anti
oaula continues and that the secession
movement there has the support Of
many prominent men, including a num-
Der Of high officials.
An outbreak was recently started in
Cali. the business center Of the Cauca
department, but the authorities quick
" suppressed it and arrested the ring
leaders, who suffered no harm, proba-
bly, because of the sympathies of the
officials with the movement.
The secession movement. this man
says, is serious, but 1t is impossible to
foretell what will be done or when any
step viii be undertaken. He also says
there is no evidence Of any warlilxe or
aggressive movements against Pana-
ma. There is plenty Of threatening
talk, but no action.
The Americans at Cali have not been
molested The authorities at Buena-
ventura, the traveller says, were in
clined to be annoying when he left
there, but nothing serious had happen
ed. The discomfort IA Cauca and Anti
oquia arises from the same causes that
led to the movement for independence
on the isthmus.
Men from the crews Of the warships
in Panama bay held rowing and small
boat sailing races in celebration Of
Thanksgiving day The climbing Of
creased masts and other sports were
also INDUCED in, Members of the
crew Of the British cruiser Amphion
won the sailing race and also the cut
te. race, which they rowed In a cutter

and then the hurdles were brought out and
the troops were taken over the hurdles in
sets. of fours. Following this the column
was formed in single file and the men were
ordered to mount and dismount while the
horses were moving at a trot and a gal
lop. Then they were required to dismount,
vault over the horse and mount from the
opposite side. The troop was then formed
In a column of twoS and the men took
turns in diSmounting and vaulting over
their own horses to the backs of those rid
den by their partners. They would vault
and mount with their backs to the other
riders and in the usual method. At the
conclusion of this exercise the hurdles were
again brought into use and the men were
required to dismount and vault over their
horses as they were going over the hurdles.
This is a difficult feat from the spectators
point of view and was performed in fault
less style by the cavalrymen. With the
horses still in pairs and one man managing
both, the odd rider vaulted to the back
of his horse and rode standing over the
hurdles. Three horses were then substi-
tuted for two and the rider standing, man
aged the three horses himself and jumped
the hurdles. Then four men from the troop
were selected to take four horses over the
hurdles while the riders stood erect on their
backs. This feat was performed again
and again. The troops were then put
through a variety Of exercises which in
cluded lying down with the horses, rising,
vaulting over two, three. four and five
horses standing together and two men erect
riding three horses over the hurdles.
The exercises Of the afternoon were
brought to a close with exhibition by
