A PANIC IN PANAMA
Attempt to Arrest Governor
 Mutis and Senor Guerra.
COBOS MAY ASSUME COMMAND.
Soldiers Surrounded the Governors Residence While Trying to Cap ture Him-ORce of Ell Laptz
 Was Raided.

PANAMA, Colombia, July 27. - Not since the days of the last revolution, when at attack upon the city by, the Liberals was feared, has there been such panic in Panama as has just oc- curred. The office of El Lapiz, the or gan of the Liberal party on the isth- mus, was visited by some officers of the general staff of the army, who de- stroyad the days edition of the news paper. One of the directors was slight ty wounded, but managed to escape.
 AS the office of the newspaper is sit uated in very populous district, the news spread rapidly. In the Santa Anas neighborhood, where most of the Liberals reside, sentiment rose to high pitch, and few of. the prominent people counseled retaliation. They took no action, however. F.
 The next event came like a bomb shell. A company of soldiers, apparent ly under the orders of General Vasquez Cobos, commander of the national forces, surrounded the residence of Governor Mutis, but the governor and his wife, who is an American lady, hay ing been warned few minutes before the arrival of the troops, succeeded in escaping. .- H'
 General Huertas, commander of the battalion of Colombia, when he learned of the El Lapiz incident repaired to headquarters, where he found General Cobos, and, according to current re- ports, the latter ordered General Huer- tas to remain in quarters. Exactly what has taken place is unknown, but it is said that Dr. Aristides Arjona, sec retary of the government: Fernando Arango, chief of police, and Efraim Ma via, "a member of the departmental su- perior tribunal. of justice, are under ar rest, the latter for trying to argue with General Cobos the illegality of his ac- ton. ..
 An attempt is also said to have been made to arrest Senor Guerra, secretary of finance, but he refused to accompany the officer who went to his house to ar rest him, and when the officer returned with soldiers to effect his capture Gu erra had departed.
 The only civil official on the street was Mayor Ossa. Governor Mutis spent the night at the British consulate, but it is reported that he will take refuge in the American, consulate. United States Consul Gudger made several un- successful attempts to secure an audi ence with General Cobos, who is a brother of the minister of war.
 It is reported that General Cobos of fered the governorship to different Con- servatives, who refused to accept, and that he himself will assume civil com- mand.
 It is said that Consul Gudger attempt . ed to send cablegram to Arthur M Beaupre, the United States minister at Bogota, but that the agent refused to accept the message, claiming that the lines were interrupted in spite of the fact that it is known that press mes sages were being accepted. It is thought that perhaps orders to refuse messages

President Listens to EuIogy of
 Dead Pope by Dr. Hageman.
 OYSTER BAY, N. Y., July 27.-The president, Mrs. Roosevelt and all their children except the youngest boy at tended service yesterday in Christ church. The Rev. Dr. Washburn was absent, and his place was taken by the Rev. pr. J. Winthrop Hageman.
 During the sermon Dr. Hageman spoke of the death of the pope, which, he said, meant a great deal for the Christian world, for it had brought the various denominations closer together than they had ever been before and had thus marked a step forward in the work for which Pope Leo had so long worked and which he favored so strongly, the reunion of Christians the world over. While the world had suf- fered a severe blow by the death of the great churchman, his very death had worked for good.

to Bogota have been issued to the cable company by the military authorities. It is reported that Dr. Arjona and Judge Navia have been set at liberty, but that Chief of Police Arrange re- mains under arrest.
 The Colombian battalion attended church in a body as usual, but the con dition of affairs is very serious. Gov ernor Mutis is virtually prisoner. Un- doubtedly General Cobos will issue lat CT proclamation giving the reasons for his actions, which up to this time are unknown. 4'*
 The national government in certain quarters is being held responsible for much of what has happened, because the soldiers have not been paid for some time and Governor Mutis declined to give more of the money of the de- pertinent of Panama for national ex- penses,s arguing that the central gov ernment owes the department over $2,- GOO, 900, besides having obligated the department by a recent decree to pay the salaries of all civil national. em- ployees. ..--:..
 The refusal of Governor Mutis is the origin of the discord between the civil and military authorities. Violent arti. cles written in Ill Lapia against what the Liberals call the assassination of General Victoriano Lorenzo, the leader of the guerrillas during the recent revo- lution, who was court martialed and shot May 15, precipitated events. El Lapiz has also been publishing series of articles openly advocating the au- tonomy of the isthmus.
 The effect of what is now going on upon the Colombian congress, it, is be. lieved, will be favorable to the canal treaty, for the enemies of the treaty, it is further believed, will be easily con. vinced of the necessity of certain clauses which it contains in regard to the control of this zone.
 A dispatch from Colon says that the city is perfectly quiet, as the coup on the part of General Cobos against Gov. ernor Mutis of the department of Pan. anna is known only to few here. Fur. ther developments are expected very soon. General Luis Maria Gomez, gov ernor of this province, has been called to Panama.

TEDDY" and GLADSTONE
The President Adds Tree Chopping
to His Other Accom- plishments
Some Good Ax-work.
From Tho Journal Bureau, Room IS, Post Build
ing WASHINGTON.


From The Journal Bureau, Room IS. Post Build
ing, Washington.
Washington, Jan. 22.-President Roose-
welt has added tree chopping to his ac-
complishments. The Dutch Reformed
church, Of which he is a member,
has acquired some valuable prop
erty~ on the Tennallytown Heights
northwest OF Georgetown, which
is wooded. 1t is necessary to remove
some of these trees, and SO the church
officers invited Clifford Pinchett, chief Of
the forestry division Of the department of
agriculture to visit the ground and help
in selecting the trees which were to be
marked for slaughter. One day Mr.. Pin
chett casually mentioned to the president
the fact that he was going to inspect the
property, whereupon the president sug-
gested that he would like to be member
of the party, to which Mr.. Pinchett gladly
assented. Together they walked away to
Tennallytown, viewed the land, marked
the trees and then returned home as they
had gone.
When near the White House the presi-
dent wanted to know why he could not do
little chopping and so then and there
the arrangement was made for them to
gosto the ground the next day armed with
axes. 49, -
Yesterday Mr. Pinchett showed up at
the White House bright and early, where
he found the president awaiting him,
with two bright new axes, which they
shouldered and started on foot for the
heights. The trees were all cut down
before 10 O'clock and the president got
back to the White House in time to attend
to the official business Of the day.
