Wounds Nine Others in
Alabama.

Helm, Ala. Aug. 17.-News has just
reached here that four men were killed
and nine wounded in Randolph county
the latter part of last week by a desper-
ate negro named Sledgc. The sheriff and
posse are in pursuit but have not yet
been able TO capture the murderer.
The trouble started over a difficulty
in watermelon patch. A party OF white
men were working on the public road at
Beaver Creek near Lamar Sledge has a
watermelon patch near the road, and
when the men finished working they
asked permission to eat few melons.
Sledge told them TO help themselves but
requested that they take care not to de-
strOy the vines. AS soon as the men en-
tered the patch they began 20 cut and
slash melons in every direction. The negro
warned them to stop. and then went fter

into the crowd, wounding nine out of
eleven.

Oyster Bay. n. Y. Aug. 17.-Upon the
return of the president to Sycamore Hill
from reviewing the fleet he found await
ing him there information Of the rejection
by the Colombian senate of the Panama
canal treaty
While he naturally is disappointed at
the action of the congress, he does NOT
desire at this time to make any comments
upon it. When it was learned recently
thac the Colombian congress intended TO
amend the treaty it was understood that
an intlmatiOn was conveyed to the Colon
bian government that such amendments

The absolute rejection of the treaty fol-
lowed. It is quite certain that the action
Of Colombia will induce some consulta-
tions of Importance in the Near future and
possibly some action by congress at the

first argued Russian opposition to the
opening Of those ports. He then said
that he was not Informed that Rus

were held by another power When

that such emphatic, OutspOken criticism
is usually reserved for manifestOs issued

as being quite improbable that the memo

PANAMA MAY sECEDE.
Rejection of the Treaty Fraught With

Panama. Colombia. Aug. 1.-THE
unanimous rejection Of the Panama
canal treaty by the senate has caused
a profound impression here in all cir
cles. The question on all lips is what
will become of Panama. The only con-
ISOLATION the isthmians have is that the
rest of the republic, with the exchange
at a very high figure and with an up
ward tendency, viii suffer a great deal
more. 1t seems that the government
never expected the treaty to be ratified.
and it was not supported at all in the
senate.
General ValezzO. an old veteran and
a distinguished army officer. has been
appointed military commander of the
department of Panama. It is thought
that the fears caused by the rumors Of
a secession movement on the isthmUs
may have Influenced the appointment.

T oNDON. Aug. 17.-According to
information in the possession
of diplomats here in London,
there is no reason at this mo-

between the powers in respect to
Macedonia or that the trouble will
spread beyond the confines of Turkey.
One of these, who is participating in
the exchange of notes regarding the
situation said to a repre- sentative Of
the Associated Press today:
THE powers are acting harmonious
~. Nothing has developed to indicate
any suspicion or cause for. suspicion
of the motives underlying the demands
made by Russia on the porte. A full
exchange of views has occurred be
tween the powers interested. Mr.. Bal
tours statement in commons Outiin-
ing Great Britain's attitude and the
warnings of Austria and Russia to Bull
garia prove that these three nations
are in accord and the advices received
at my embassy show that France and
Germany approve the policy of Russia
and Austria. War between Turkey anC
Bulgaria might lead to a general con-
Migration. 1t is to prevent cOmplica-
tons of such grave character that
every effort is being made by the pow
crs to maintain peace between those
countries.
Within forty-eight hours the Rus
sian squadron viii reach whatever
point has been selected. There is no
doubt that the sole object of this move
ment is to make Turkey understand
that Russia's demands must be com
piled with without delay.
