ACTION WILL INSURE CONSTRUC.
 TON OF CANAL
Existence of the New de Faeto Republic on the lsthmus Is Acknowledged by the United States-lnstruction Sent to Consuls

ernment to the de facto government of Panama. It was announced at the state department after the return of Secretary Hay from the cabinet meet ing that instructions have been sent to United States Minister Beaupre, at Bogota, and to MT. Ehrman, the United States vice consul at Pan anna and now acting consul there, to inform the governments of Colombia and Panama, respectively, that the de facto government is recognized.
 Following is the text of the tele- gram sent by the state department to MT. Ehrman, the acting consul-general of the United States at Panama: "The people of Panama have by an apparently unanimous movement dis solved their political relations with the republic of Columbia and assumed their independence. When you are satisfied that de facto government, republican in form and without sub- stantial opposition from it's own peo- pie, has been established in the state of Panama, you will enter into rela- tions with it as the responsible gov ernment of the territory and look to it for all due action to protect the persons and property of the citizens of the United States and to keep open the isthmian transit in accordance with the obligations of existing treat ies governing the relations of the United States to that territory"
 Immediately afterward an instruc- tion was sent by telegraph to Mr. Beaupre, the United States minister at Bogota, in the following terms: "The people of Panama, having by an apparently unanimous movement dis solved their political connection with the republic of Columbia and assumed their independence, and having adopt ed government of their own, repub- lican in form, with which the gov ernment of the United States has en- tered into relations, the present of the United States, in accordance with the ties of friendship which have so long and so happily existed between the respective nations, most earnestly comments to the governments of Co., lombia and of Panama the peaceful and equitable settlement of all ques- tions at issue between them.
 He holds that he is bound not merely by treaty obligations, but by the interests of civilization to see that the peaceful traffic of the world across the isthmus of Panama shall not longer be disturbed by constant succession of unnecessary and waste full civil wars"
 At the navy department a cable gram has been received from Con- mander Delano of the Dixie, announc- ing his arrival at Colon. The cable gram states that the Colombian troops have evacuated and that the situation is quiet. Commander De- lano cables that he has landed an adequate force of marines from the Dixie and that the blue jackets which landed from the Nashville have re-embarked on the Nashville. The Dixie carries 400 marines.
 Rear Admiral Glass, commanding the Pacific squadron has cabled to the navy department announcing the de- parture of the Marblehead, Concord, Wyoming and the collier Nero yester- day from Acapulco, Mexico, for Pan-
