MARINES FOR COLON.
Il Battalion To Be Sent to Guanta-
namO Ne1t Week.
[FRoM THE TRIBUNE BUREAU. ]

Washington, Nov. 6-The Navy Department
has arranged for the mobilization at League
Island Navy Yard of a battalion of marines to
be in readiness for service in Caribbean waters.
The battalion will consist of 10 officers and
216 men, divided in four companies all under
the command of Major L. c. Lucas. Provision
has been made for the armament of the force to
include four automatic field guns and the usual
supply of tents and equipage for shore service.
The present plan is to have this battalion en-
bark on the Prairie on Tuesday and proceed to
Guantanamo, the new naval depot in Cuba, for
further orders. The situation in Panama may
not justify the dispatch of the marines in that
direction, but the force will be in readiness for
service at Colon if required. In any event, and
pending further developments, the marines will
remain at Guantanamo, where, of course, they
will be encamped, the naval depot is only on
paper. with no accommodation for troops
The situation at Colon and the chance that
where have added force to the advocacy of
naval war base at Guantanamo. The naval
general board has prepared plans in detail for
such an establishment. 1t is probable that
special recommendation for an emergency an
preparation by Congress will be made at an
early day The plans include dock and usual
repair plants, pumping station, power house
commandantS and officers quarters barracks
storehouses and fortifcations. The project If
carried out in its entirety, will require $4,000

SENATOR MORGAN PREDICTS WAR

Washington Nov. Ex-senator Morgan said
to-day that soon after Congress meets in extra
session he will introduce resolution calling on
the Foreign Relations Committee OF the Senate to
obtain from the State Department detailed re-
port of the relations between the United States
and Colombia under the treaty of 1916. Senator
Morgan believes that the attitude of this coun-
try is not justified by a careful construction OF
the provisions of the treaty and is at variance
with precedents laid down by the United States
In discussing the situation to-day he said:
This is the fourth time the United States has
landed troops the isthmus under cloak of the
treaty. Heretofore it has been for the suppress
sion of riotiug and for the protection Of Colom-
bia. Now that IL is against the wish OF Colom-
bia 1T undoubtedly will provoke q just protest.

CABINETS DECISION.
Recognition of Panama Considered
NecesSary.
Try TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSE.l

Washington. Nov. 6.-The decision to recog-
nize the de facto government of Panama was
reached after a protracted session of the Cab
met to-day, at which every member was present
except Secretaries Root and Wilson. No other
subject was considered. The President empha-
sized the Importance of recognizing the de facto
government. With the withdrawal of the Co
lombian officials, the isthmus left entirely
without government unless that established by
the revolutionists should be recognized, and this
step seemed necessary for the transaction of the
routine business of the United States the
isthmus.
The developments of the day relative to the
situation on the isthmus were the receipt of
dispatches from Commander Hubbard. of the
Nashville the arrival in Washington of Consul
General Gudger of Panama, and the issue of or
ders to Admiral Coghlan to proceed forthwith
to the isthmus with the consul general
IN FULL CONTROL OF IsTHMUs
Commander Hubbard said that the Colombian
government troops. under Generals Torres and
Tovar $50 strong, at Colon, had departed on
merchant vessel. He said that the isthmus
from one side to the other was in the hands of
the revoutionists. This statement is of the
greatest Importance for the United States gov

order and preserve free traffic across the 18TH

hostile collisions either along the line of the
Panama RAILWAY or at the terminals, Panama
and Colon Thus the future attitude of the
Colombian government toward the new Repub-
lie of Panama becomes of little Importance. for
it is practically impossible for " to go TO war
with Panama Officials here familiar with the
country declare that it is impossible to move a
Colombian army overland to the isthmus. owing
to the character of the country. On the other
hand, if attempt should be made to bring
troops either to Colon PanaI by water
the United States naval officers at those points
would interfere Thus, Uy force of treaty obli-
cations. requiring the maintenance of order

ticaly has been placed in the position of a pro-
tector to the Republic of Panama, and
that, too REGARDLESS of anv bias the part Of
the United States government toward either
party the strife in Colombia.
POLITICAL RECOGNITION TO FOLLOW.
It was authoritatively said to-day that, al
though the recognition of the new republic is of
a business character at first, consisting of an
authorization Of American consular officials on
the isthmus to do business with the new gov
ernment, they did with the Colombian Gov
erEment this will in due time be followed by
full political recognition.

The coming OF the great Adam Fore

Looping the Loop" on an ordinary
bicycle. Wheelman have done all
sorts Of tricks that seem impossible un-
til one sees them displayed, but for a
rider to speed with his bicycle path
over his head is something that has
not been tried before.
The loop is the track.
It's diameter is 25 feet and the in
cline from which the rider gets his
start is lilo feet long and slants about
i5 degrees. Mounting his wheel at the
top of ths incline, Dlavolo, Tor such is
the riders circus name, glides down to
the beginning Of the loop at such a
speed that he strikes the upward
curve with a pressure Of 900 pounds,
nine times his w weight. The
track is a tritle owe three feet wide,
Diavolo circles the inner periphery
of the huge circle and is consequently
upside down at the top and going at
tine rate of about 100 miles per hour.
The time it takes to make the loop,
il the rider is not killed in the try, is
about three and one-half seconds by
actual count.

The Fourth at Achen's

The threatening weather on the
morning Of the Fourth almost dis
%couraged those who had planned on
the Catin,lic picnic and celebration at
Achen's grove south of town-but by
noon the sun came out and it was
thought best by those in charge to go
ahead with the affair and try and
make expenses anyway. Ofcourse the
program was knocked silly and the
thing to do was to make the best Of it.
DR.. Duncan was probably scared out
by the rain and failed to arrive from
Chamberlain to deliver the address,
but J.. NJ. Brady made his talk, and it.
was a good one-though but few had
arrived at the grounds by that time.
Along toward three o'clock the crowd
began to thicken up and by nightfall
there were a good many present and
everybody enjoying themselves. A
base ball game vas had and Billy o.
Neal and old Mr.. McPhellips ran a

Catarrh of tine stomach

When the stomach is overloaded;
when food is taken into it that fails
to digest, it decays and inflames the
mucous membrane, exposing the
nerves., and causes the glands to
secret mucin. instead OF the natural

Catarrll Of the Stomach. For years I

Water Meters ordered In

Water Meters Ordered In
by the proceedings Of the council,
published in another column. and the
ordinance also, it will be seer that the
council have decided to measure out
the water to consumers. In theory
the meter system is all right, but in
practice it does not always prove so.
For n thing, the meters are not
easily kept in order; it's no easier to
collect the water tax with a meter
than without, and they will not stop
the waste from. leaky service pipes
and mains.
There is a question also If the action
OF the council isn't a bit retroactive
in compelling consumers who have gone
to the expense OF tapping the mains
under certain conditions to incur an
additional expense of something like
$l2 Or SIS or cut off from further SER
vice. 1t would seem that under such
circumstances the city itself should
put IN the meters. Some towns and
cities do this and some do not. In
fact, there are about as NAM ways Of
running the water systems as there are
!; towns operating them. AS a rule,
when a system is put in, some other
town is made a guide to 20 by without
reference to the practicability of the
rates and regulations.
On general principles the meter
system is the fairest and only just way
to deliver water to consumers, and as
such has much to commend it with tn
GRAPHIC. But when one must be put
to the expense Of putting ina meter
he ought to have a service commensu-
rate with that outlay-and that is
something impossible with Kimball's
water system-which is a make-shift
at the best.
If we had a pressure system here
same as other towns where meters are
used-we would favor putting in
meters-lf for no other reason than to
save reckless waste of water. AS it is,
we think the council would have show
ed wisdom in posCponing their action
until Kimball can have something OF
that kind.
II the meters are put in the council
Will learn n thing and that is that
they have been badly off in their cal
culations as to the amount of water
used by those who use it through
their own service pipes. They will
find the revenue materially reduced
and the expense of operating the
system about the same.
We believe that with a maximum
rate of $40 and a minimum rate Of
say Sl-together with what the city
picks up in other ways from selling
water-that enough money can be col
lected every year TO pay fully one half
the cost OF running the plant-wear
and tear included-and that is all the
consumer should be obliged to Day.
Sioux City charges itself with s25,o 600
annually for fire protection alone-al-
most n half the cost of running the
plant.
The GRAPHIC believes that the
council are actuated by the best of
motives and are trying to do the
square thing by both the consumer and
the city and as such have the Ora
PHIC's confidence and good will. But
suggestions are oppdrtune always from
the >press when offered in a kindly
spirit-and the foregoing is so intend
