from Colon to Panama.
Colon, Nov. 1.-THE new Panama
republic now controls the isthmus
from the city of Panama to Colon. All
the Colombian troops, which have been
holding ont against the revolutionists,
were embarked on the Royal Mail
steamer Orinoco, bound for Cartagena.
Included In the evacuation were not
only Torres troops here, but Tovar's
battalion stationed nj Panama, which
was brought over on the railroad to
take the same steamer.
The withdrawal was brought about
at a conference. Commander Hubbard
of the United States gunboat Nash
Vile and Superintendent Shnler and
Assistant Superintendent Prescott Of
the Panama railroad were the moving
spirits and guaranteed observance Of
the agreement as to no violence in the
departure. Colonel Torres saw the sit
uations,sas hopeless and agreed to EN-.
bark his soldiers.
The Panama leaders think now they
have footing they can hold. The
people of Colon are jubilant. The flag
of the new republic flies from the rail-
way stations at Gatun and Bohlo
Soldado, near Colon. Troops from
Panama will doubtless take charge of
the city tomorrow. The municipal
council OF Colon has Just notified the
provisional government at Panama Of
its adherence to the new republic.

TC PRISON FOR LIFE
Is the Sentence Awarded in
Cases of Jett and White.
NO FEAR OF GALLOWS
Verdict Of Jury Was no Surprise and
is Considered a Victory for the
Defense-MotoH for New
Trial to Be Made.

At Cynthiana, KY, Saturday morn
ing, the jury in the case of Curtis Jet
and Thomas White, charged with the
assassination of James B. Marcum at
Jackson, returned a verdict of guilty,
fixing the punishment of each at life
Imprisonment. The verdict was re-
turned when there were but few per
sons in the court room.
Jett received the verdict with COM
paratiye Indifference and calmness.
White, who has been apparently under
a severe strain during the trial, flush.
ed up and his eyes filled with tears.
Attorney Golden, for the defense,
stated that motion for a new trial
will be made as soon as possible. The
general opinion seems to be that the
motion will be overrulcd by the court
of appeals. The verdict occasioned lit
tie essurprise in Cynthiana after the de-
liberation of the jury had been so pro-
longed. The only question which
caused the delay, it is said, was that
of punishment-death or life imprison-
ment.
The verdict on the whole is regarded
as "a victory for the defense, as the
prosecution asked that no middle
ground be taken and that the men
either 90 clear or be hanged.
The case has been on trial almost
three weeks, having been begun July
81. At the first trial at Jackson, the
jury disagreed and it is believed the
final verdict was a compromise with
a juror opposed to capital punishment.
The friends of Captain B. L. Even
and other witnesses for the common
wealth who have suffered greatly and
were living in fear of their lives are
greatly relieved. They expected the
death penalty which they were conf
dent would have been followed By con-
fessions from the condemned men, ex-
posing parties high in authority in
Breathitt county who are considered
to be back of the conspiracies. There
have been twenty-seven lives lost
within the past two years in the Hac'
gis-C -Cockrill feud in Breathitt county,
and this is the first conviction. No ar.
rests or indictments had Leen made
until last May, when the troops were
ordered to Jackson to- protect the
grand jury and afterward the trial jury
and witnesses.
Jett is still under indictment for
first degree murder for killing Town
Marshal .cockrill. Jett said Friday
night the rope had never been made
with which to hang him, but he made
no remarks. His friends say he will
have a new trial, and even if he fails
in that effort, he might be pardoned in
the course of time. The friends of the
defendants showed such relief as 10
leave no doubt of their previous appre-
tensions Of the death penalty.
