CAN'T FIGHT PANAMA.
United States Will Not Permit
 Bloodshed.

Washington, Nov. H.-The state De- partment has no knowledge of the march, ing of any army from Colombia upon the isthmus and the officials state that were any such movement in progress it would certainly be informed by its agents in the south, the cables being still open.
 These officials scout the idea that any such march is in progress, as the presi- dent of Colombia Is reported to have de- scrioed to the president of Ecuador.
 It is assumed here that the army said to be marching on Panama was nothing more than the few men. perhaps 800 all told. that were about to embark at Buena Venture a few days ago when they were turned back from the isthmus by notice of the determination of the United States naval commanders to allow no landings in that quarter. These troops cannot reach the isthmus by water and the of- ficials here are positive that they cannot do so by land.
 The character of the country is such that there is no subsistence for any army on the route of the wild mountain trails and the passages through the morasses that lie between Colombia proper and the isthmus. Even If there were subsistence the trails are so rough that it would re- quire many weeks or even months for even a small army to make the journey.
  stacles in the way of the approach of an army upon Panama. The officials do not care to express publicly their plans. but enough has been gleaned from the in- structions given to our naval commanders to make 1t evident that never again will the isthmus become the seat of warfare so long as the United States Government can prevent 1t.
 The difference between the present sit- uation of the isthmus and that which ex- isted last year when Commander Mo- Lean prevented armed troops from cross- ing the isthmus by rail Is just this; the authorities have now determined to ex- tend the lines of protection to the rail road.
 They will not allow hostile forces, no matter whether they are Colombian or Panama troops. to come into collision anywhere near the railroad and to prevent such collisions 1t will be necessary to ex- tend the neutral zone clear to the north and south boundaries of the republic of Panama. Officials here will not make such a statement publicly; they simply say:
 Wait till the emergency arises" but 1t Is known that such were the plans of the naval commanders and as there is no indication of a change in the plans not the slightest apprehension is felt here of the encroachment of any Columbian army upon Panama.

New York, Nov. 14.-Cabling from Pan- anna, the correspondent of The Herald says that district communication has been maintained with Bogota, capital Of Co., lombia. He forwards the following dis match from there under date of Novem- Der 10th:
 Acting President George Holguin said to-day that Colombia never will recog- nize the independence of Panama.
 My government will exhaust It's last drop of blood and it's last cent in put ting down the rebellion he said. I wish to make the announcement to the world that we will not submit to isthmian inde- pendence.'
 General Rafael Reyes, who has been appointed geenralissimo-in-chief of Co., lomuia's fighting forces, and who left to-day for the coast. has a large and well equipped army. He said he had left behind a force of 100000 men, ready for any emergency.

 All departments and parties have prom ised unconditional support and financial aid to the government. The people are furious over the revolution
 Bogota continues in state of siege, but the United States legation is well protected in Bogota, as the revolution movement lS uOt AhO 8ON- ernment knows that it has assurances from the interior provinces of Panama that they are not in sympathy with the reoellion, and can be relied upon to put down the rebellion.
 The Colombian government and the peo- ple are satisfied that patriotic sentiments win prevail. and before long "the isth- mus will realize the error of it's course and will return to the mother country before Colombian blood shall flow in tor rents"
 From reports rece. ed here the govern ment is counting upon the sincere sym pathy of all the South and Central Amer ican republics.
 . Arrival of the Wyoming.
 The only news received over night from the Isthnnus of Panama was brief dis patch from Rear Admiral Glass, ar- nouncing the arrival at Panama yester- day of the monitor Wyoming. There are now seven vessels guarding the interests of the United States on the isthmus. Of these four are on the Pacific side.

 Rear Admiral Coghlan, commanding the Caribbean squadron, Rear Admiral Walk CT, president of the isthmian canal com mission, and Consul General Gudger, who is expected will be given diplomatic pow CTS at Colon, are on the Mayfiower due at Panama Monday.
 The Maine should arrive there about the same time. It Is expected that the cruiser Baltimore, now in Dominican wa ters, and the training ship Prairie also will be added to the fleet on the east coast of the isthmus.

ment today to see what information the officials had regarding the situation on the isthmus. He said he had no anxiety over the dispatches from Guayaquil that a Colombian expedition would endeavor to reach the isthrnus.
 'Tt were easier" said the minister. "to march from Capetown to London than from Bogota to Panama. For the strait of Gibraltar and the English channel are at least swimmable, but the marshes be- tween the new republic and Colombia are impenetrable."
 The Minister counts on the American naval force todeal with any expedition by sea that Colombia may attempt.
 pr. Thomas Herran, the Colombian Charge d'Aairs, continues to be without advices from Bogota. Despite this fact, Dr. Herran is keeping Bogota closely in- formed of every action of the Washing ton government bearing upon the isth- milan situation.
 In order that the contemplated peace mission of General Reyes of the Colom- bian Government to Panama may not be accompanied by any unpleasant incidents, due to the possibility of his coming with out being officially accredited. Secretary Hay late today determined to accord Gen eral Reyes the courtesies of a warship upon arrival at the isthmus, should he desire to go aboard.
 It was also arranged with Secretary Hay that warship would be assigned especially to the government of Panama aboard which its officials may hold con ferences with the Colombian republic, should they desire to do so. Following his visit to Secretary Hay Minister Buena varilla called at the Rus sian Embassy and had a long interview with Count Cassini, dean of the diplomatic corps, who was asked to lend his assist ance in securing recognition of the new republic. To simplify the efforts in this direction, Minister Buena varilIe today urged his government to clothe the com mission now on it's way to Washington with special powers to take such repre- sentations to the foreign representatives here as will effect speedy recognition of the new republic. By this means, 1t Is stated. the necessity for sending repre- sentative of Panama to each of the foreign capitals charged with the duty of securing recognition will be obviated.
 Rear Admiral Glass cabied the Navy Department today under date of Panama November 12, that the British ships Quito and ManaW sailed from Buena Ventura on their regular voyage unmolested and that their captains on arrival at Panama reported there were few Colombian troops at Buena Ventura and that the Bogota, the Colombian warship. was without coal.
