Mr.. Macfarland's Invitation to Board
of Trade, Business Mems Asso-
citation and Others.

Commissioner Henry b. F. Macfarland
has received a telegram from Architect
Albert NJ. Kelsey OF Philadelphia, who Is
the superintendent OF the municipal i'm
proyement section for the st. Louis EXPOSE
ton stating that Mr.. Kelsey will arrive
in Washington Friday morning of next
week, to confer with the Commissioner rel
alive to matters pertaining to the exhibit
of the city OF Washington at the Louisiana

informally invited the officers and directors
Of the Board of Trade. and of the Bust
ness Mems Association, to meet him at the
District building next Friday morning at IL

Washingtons exhibit in the model city,
which IS to be feature of the exposition.

st. Louis that 1t was well to reserve one.
If it is decided to have Washington repre-
sented In the model city, Commissioner
Macfarland thinks that the Washington
Public Library building, which is consid-
cred as our most beautiful municipal build
ing. and especially representative of the
national capital, would be good one to Sc
Iect, and upon being informed by the st.
Louis management that library build ng,
a court house and post Office were among
the units which had not been taken by any
OF the cities, the Commissioner asked that
the privilege of selecting the library build
ing be reserved for Washington until a de-
cision could be reached as to whether the
CITY OF washington would be represented.
The worlds fair management estimates
that 1t Will take about three months TO
construct one of the buildings in the model
city, so that there Is ample time to make
all the arrangements for Washington if II
Is concluded that it should be represented.

movement for independence. which the


success of Panama will stimulate.
1.-THE government OF Colombia is receiv-
ing the sympathy Of all South America,
which is fearful of further American ter
ritortal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT in this direction.
II may propose when in Washington a
plan contemplating the re-entrance of Pan
anna into the Colombian union, and the
moving of the Colombian capital to Panama
City. I am sure that this idea will receive
the support of all Colombians.
Il do not just know what my course of
action will be, but I am going to Wash
ington in the interests Of Colombia and Of
civilization
Asked whether Colombian troops could
reach the isthmus by land, General Reyes
answered.:
Yes, l can get q hundred thousand men,
build roads, and, If 1t were not for the
Americans, could subdue the isthmus in q
fortnight / would rather die for the honor
ana In the defense of the integrity of my
country than sit with hands folded and
see her lose the -isthmus. 1 will do all L
can at Washington to effect diplomatic
arrangement, If such be possible 1 know
the sentiments of my countrymen."
Gen. Reyes today sent cablegram to
Bcgota advising his government that it was
impossible to reach any agreement with
the government of Panama, and hence,
that Colombia's relations with that govern
ment Were severed, and that he, accom-
panied by the other commissioners was
proceeding to Washington to fulfill his
ms Sion.

ject. and following this conference Com
missioner Mcfarland expects to be in a
position to make a recommendation to the
board of Commissioners relative to the Sc
lection of typical building, municipal In
character, to represent Washington in the
model city exhibit.
Last summer the Commissioners receiv ed
from the st. Louis worlds fair manage

for the celebration of the District Of CO.
lumbia, with appropriate exercises, and
the other to make an exhibit on behalf of
the city of Washington in the model city

first invitation. and designated October 90
1904. as District of Columbia day, and this
was accepted by the worlds fair manage

deferred by the Commissioners because so
