During the summer . Kentucky
mountaineer got into Q difficulty at
Big Stone Gap, where the Wentz inter
ests have two miles Of coke ovens.
Police Officer King was shot by him
and died almost instantly, the noun
tsineer being badly wounded. The
Wentz interests have q Big Stone Gap
hospital for the use of their employ es,
and for humanity's sake the injured
man was taken there. He remained
in the hospital for some days and dis
appeared. No one inside the hospital
or out could tell anything about him,
when he had gone, why or where.
| Friends OF the missing man came
to learn how he was getting along
When TOLD he was gone they asked for
his body. of course, il could not be
given, They asked why, and received
no answer satisfactory to them. Then
they jumped to conclusion, entirely
absurd. that the people in charge Of
the hospital had put their friend in q

to have found young Wentz at lone

COLOMBIAN PROTESTS.

Senior PRsRdo Says Panama's Action
Means Annexation to United States.
PARIS, Nov. 1O.-"Beyond making
protests to the governments of Europe
and to the republics of South America,
Colombia" said Senior Pasado, the Co.
lombian consul here, II do not believe
my government will take action against
the United States. I do not believe the
protests will be effective here, but the
republics Of South America may well
ask themselves If the United States
will not, when her interests demand it,
take possession of them or encourage
revolutions in their territory.
ANY one can see that the independ-
ence of Panama is but long step to-
ward American annexation. Reports
are current that the states of Cauca
and Antioquia are also In revolt; but,
while Colombia perhaps will not resist
separation from Panama, she certainly
will oppose by force of arms the with
drawal of the states Of Cauca, which
comprises almost half Of Colombia, and
Antioquia, probably the richest in the
confederation. We have $4,000 men
available, and large quantities of arms
and ammunition have been gathered
together to suppress the revolution"

%. Green have been sent here, and two
warrants Of, arrest were issued by
United States Commissioner Hail. Ar
rangements were made to serve them
on Senator Green at the office of the
commissioner, but Senator Green did
not appear. The reason for the sena-
tors nonappearance is undoubtedly ow-
ing to misunderstanding OF the stu
alton. He presumed that the case
would be adjourned until the Goth Of
November. Word was received that Sen
ator Green would reach the city some
time today.

NEW CANAL TREATY.
Republic Of Panama Sends a Commits
sion to Negotiate.

Republic Of Panama Sends Commits
sion to Negotiate.
WASHINGTON, NOV. IO.-Embark-
ing of Colombian troops from Buena
Ventura or any other Colombian port
for the isthmus will not be permitted
by the Washington government, and
American war ships will be ordered to
any port upon receipt Of an intimation
that Colombian troops will attempt to
sail for the isthmus. The Washington
government holds that this policy Is in
the interest of the general good.
The state department has been in
formed by an agent of the Panama Ca
nal company that the provisional gov
eminent Of Panama has designated a
commission of three members, one Of
whom is Federico Boyd, a member Of
the junta, who will leave Panama to-
day for Washington to begin immedi-
ately the negotiation of a new canal
treaty. The commission, 1t Is stated, IL
clothed with full powers to conclude
that instrument.
A coasting vessel has left Colon for
Porto Bello carrying few troops, who
will hoist the flag of the new republic
of Panama there.
Local exchange at Colon is dropping
rapidly. Five dollars in gold, which
last week was worth $3.50 in local
currency, has a value now equivalent
to only 81. Many persons will no
doubt lose heavily, while 1t Is proba BILE
that others will make.
Reports were current here to the eff
feet that an effort was being made
whereby negotiations for Panama ca
nal treaty might yet be resumed with
Colombia notwithstanding the defec-
ton of the department of Panama and
the establishment. of an independent
government there. These had as their
basis the restoration by the United
States of the status quo on the isthmus
as affairs existed ten days ago, follow
ing which Colombia would Immediately
take up the question Of canal treaty
with a view to a speedy ratification Of
such convention.
1t is stated positively by a cabinet
officer that no official overtures Of the
character referred to have been made.
AS has been stated heretofore repeat
eddy. the Hay-Herran convention is
dead, irretrievably SO, and any negoti-
atoms for a canal treaty must be on
the basis Of q new convention.
1t was made very plain by the official
above referred to that the United States
does not intend to and will not annex
Panama nor dominate it by force, but
that it is open to and anxious for ne
gotiation of treaty providing for an
isthmian water way.
Mr.. Herran, the Colombian charge,
says he was still without any advices
from his government, although he
keeps the officials at Bogota promptly
advised Of everything that is transpir-
ing. AS yet he has not received any re-
ply to his protest against the attitude
of the United States government in
isthmian affairs

CONTEMPT OF COURT
<ttorney Thoms After Detective
O'Gorman and w. r. s. Wakes

Nttorney Thoms After Detective
O'Gorman and w. r. s. Wakes
In the city court this morning before
Judge Burpee, Attorney Thoms pre-
sented motion declaring Detective
DGorman and w. II. s. Wake of the
Boston Furniture Go in contempt of
court This matter was continued a
week. At the same time a complaint
against e. G. Ia kai d + selling house
hold goods. a quantity of linoleum. to
Attorney Thoms, which he had bought
on lease from the Boston Furniture
Co, was nolled. The circumstances of
this rather peculiar proceeding are
substantially these:
Packard bought five or six yards Of
hnoleum on lease. it was claimed,
from the Boston Furniture Co, and
sold 1t before 1t was paid for by him.
There is law making 1t a criminal Of
tense to sell "household" goods bought
in this manner to another party. The
furniture company in this instance
brought civil proceedings against
Packard and the case was decided yes
terday afternoon in the city court by
Judge Burpee. he declaring that the
hno1eum in this case was not house
hold goods" That is to say, he de-
Sided the case for the defendant.
After leaving court, Packard pro-
ceeded to the Highland division depot
TO go to his home in South Manches-
ter. and was arrested by Detective
O'Gorman on the way. There is
law protecting persons while on their
way to and from court and Attorney
Thoms claims the arrest Of his client
was a contempt of court on the part
of the detective and the furniture COM
pany and he desired them to be so de-
elared by Judge Burpee this morning.
But the Judge had not time to hear
the case and AS 1t was of the kind
that could wait without injuring any
body it was adjourned to Monday
morning.

CUTTING UP CITY HALL
Opinions Differ as to ACCESSIBILITY o
Doing It

Doing It.
The public is very much interested
to know whether or not the PROPOSE
will meet with the approval OF the al
dermen. Many claim that it would
be unwise to leave the city without a
place where a few hundred can get
together without being obliged to rent
from private individuals, while others
consider the hall a sort Of elephant
and say that it ought to be put to
some use. 1t is admitted that the
present police station is far too small
and that public necessity and conven-
fence require that it be enlarged.
There is a lot Of merit in this conten-
ton. 1t Is hard for a person to walk
into an office where as rule there Is
somebody besides the officer in charge.
There should be private Office for the
chief and another for the detectives,
but whether 1t Is necessary to put the
City hall out of business to do this Is
another matter. There is also strong
demand for renovations in the old an
mex where the water board and the
bureau of engineering are housed. The
place has a tuInbled-down, unsanitary
appearance and Is sadly in need OF
touching up. The city should provide
quarters for the sanitary inspector
apart from all the other offices. Peo-
pie who keep an eve upon city affairs
say that neat brick structure be-
tween the City hall and the annex
would be the proper thing.
