THE ATLANTA RETURNED
War Vessel Leave Coiom.

Colon. By Cable.-The United States
cruiser Atlanta, Commander William
Fl. Turner returned Friday night
from the Gulf OF Darien. She discoV-
cred December Is detachment OF Co.
lombian troops, numbering apparently
about 500 men, but, according to their
statements. tot2lling 1,500 Or 1000 men
at T!tumati. on the western side OF the
gulf. just north OF the mouth OF the
Atrato river. The commander Of the
Atlanta sent ashore an officer, who
conversed with the Colombian COM
marder. The latter protested energet-
ically against the presence OF American
warships in Colombian waters, in-so-
much as war between Colombia and the
United States had not been declared,
and politely requested the Atlanta to
leave the gulf because it belonged to
Colombia. Commander Turner ignored
the request, and the Atlanta returned
to Colon to report to Rear Admiral
Coghlan.
The Colombiars are clearly busy with
protective and strengthening measures.
Although they treated the Americans
courteously, they decidedly resented
the presence OF the Atlanta's landing
party. The Colombian force was COM
posed partly of the men landed recent
" at the Atrato river by the Colom-
bian cruisers Cartagena and General
Pinzon.
Early in the morning Of December
IS. the Atlanta sighted small schoon-
er in the centre of the Gulf OF Darien,
and followed her to the western shore,
where the schooner attempted to hide
behind an islet. Lieut.. Harlan P. Per-
riil was ordered to board her, and
thereupon whale-boat was lowered
and pulled towards the schooner.
Through the courtesy of the naval OIL
fcers the correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press accompanied the party. IT
was found that the schooner had on
hoard 100 armed Colombian soldiers,
commanded by General Rafael NoVo,
who said General Daniel Ortiz, COM
mander-in-chlef OF the COLOMBIAN
forces OF the Atlantic and Paclhc, nao
a large camp a mile away, on the main
land. General Novo requested Lieut.
Perrill to land and confer with Gen.

moments the situation appeared dan

Defends General Wood,

Washington, Special.-The Senate
committee on military affairs con-
cluded its investigation OF the
charges against General Leonard
Wood. Secretary Root was the only
witness today. He was on the stand
for two and a half hours at the fore
noon session, and occupied the atten-
ton Of the committee "Wednesday
night from 8 o'clock until 11:2S
o'clock. The committee will meet
again to prepare its report. 1t IL un-
derstood that confirmation will be
recommended by a vote OF 8 to 2. A
minority report will be made by the
opposing members of the committee.
The testimony Of Secretary Root Is
practically the only defense that has
been made Of General Wood. The
testimony, however, covered the en-
tire range of evidence produced
against General Wood and was sup
ported in many instances with cor
respondence and other data taken
from records at the War Department
covering the period of General WOODS
administration as Governor Generai
Of Cuba. Secretary Root undertook
to assume the whole responsibility
for the orders issued by General wood
affecting the judicial system in Cuba
and concerning the concession granted
to the Jai Alai Company at Havana.
He justified the acceptance by General
Wood of the present Of silver set
from the Jai Alai Company.
