COLOMBIAN PROTEST
Against Our Course on lsthmus Hand.
ed in by Dr.. Herran.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Secretary Hay,
during call at the White House, today,
placed in the hands of the President the
pursued by the Washington government
on the isthmus and its attitude toward
the new government of Panama.
n,r. Thomas Herran. the Colombian
charge. and was duly acknowledged in {,
brief. formal note. The protest is short
and to the point. 1t follows the usual
kind. In view of the authorized an
nouncement by the Colombian charge that
he has not been in communication with
his government since Nov. ., it is aSSum-
ed that he protested on his own reSpon-
sibility. The action to be taken regarding
the present probably will be decided at a
conference between the President and
Secretary Hay. today No cablegrams
over night. from isthman lands or wa
tiers, nor has the state department heard
from Bogota since cabling to the Ameri-
can legation there, for presentation to the
Colombian government, an announcement
of the action of the United States in rec
ognizing the de facto government of Pan
ANA.
Dr. Herran's protest was called forth
by a letter from Secretary Hay sent at
the same time. last week. that instrUc-
tons We're forwarded to Minister Beaupre
and Acting Consul Ehrman. DR.. Herran
states that he has not heard from his
past, but he feels sure from his knowl-
edge of the sentiments of that govern
ment that he is justified in entering
firm protest against the action of the
United States ir recognizing the revoIu>
tionists in Panama and in preventing the
Colombian forces from asserting the ma
tional authority over the isthmus.
Secretary Hays response. which will be
delivered. today. probably is mere for,
NAL acknowledgment of the receipt of the
protest with q promise that it shall be
considered; but it is intimafed that moth
ing is likely to be done justnowr -
The apparent inability sof the Colom-
bians to realize the facts that the canal
treaty is dead and fhatsvthe~ revolution
is a success is furnished by the fact that
cable message was received, today: at
the state department from. Minister Beau,
pre-. dated at Bogota, Nov.@6. in which the.
minister states that. a. great change of
feeling has come about in Bogota and
with the United States are growing great
ly in strength. So

Tickets Printed at Lynn Will Not Draw
Many Prizes!

Lynn, Mass, Nov. 9.-United States
postal authorities will take action OH
the bogus lottery ticket swindle dis
covered in Lynn through the raid on
the Wells printing Office. Sunday. Will
liam F. Wells, who did the printing.
was arraigned in police court, Monday
morning, and pleaded not guilty to 4
charge Of aiding and promoting lot
terry. He was held in $4,000 bonds Tor
hearing on Tuesday His attorneys
Starr Parsons, city solicitor, and W..
Bennett Murphy, asked for reduction
Of bail. but Judge Berry said that the
case was one Of gigantic fraud and that
hundreds of thousands had been sw1n-
died. Not only was Wells apparently
engaged in printing lottery tickets, in
itself a violation Of the law, but the
tickets were bogus. and further the
United States postal regulations had
been violated, if what he understood OF
the case proved true.
Further examination of the books
seized at the printing office show that
the tickets were sent to all parts OF
the United States. Most of the dis
tributing was done direct from Dayton,
Ohio. where the tickets were shipped
nv express, and some was done from
New York. Further shipments Of tick
cts were made according to instructions
from Dayton Ohio, where the head
quarters of the swindlers appear to be
located, although there is reason I"
believe that some direct shipping to
customers was done from the Lynn
printing office, as letters have been
found from agents asking for more
tickets. One Worcester man writes
that he has been looking for just such
a scheme for years.
Among the printed tickets and draw
ing announcements seized Is one OF the
Honduras lottery printed for the draw
ing of Nov. IA, and announcing tae
name Of the man who drew the capital
prize of 100000 on that date. The
ticket that bears the number printed
against this name on the announce
ment was found in an envelope IN
Wells desk with other lucky numbers,
showing that the prizes were never
given out.
Wells still insists that nothing WIS
done by him other than to print the
tickets and send them by express Is
ordered from Dayton. The postal au-
thorities have not noticed any large
amount of mail for Wells and believe
that the express companies did most
of the forwarding of slips. Since Wells
arrest the police have received mfor-
nation that indicates another gang has
been acting in Lynn printing bogus lot
terry tickets and selling them through
New England. and there are rumors OF
still another man engaged as whole
sale agent and doing his own printing
on q small hand press at his own home
for a lottery that is never drawn
