Pole heaped his pieces Of pine against
a rock and added to them the chunks

You see that rock behind you, Mr..

The old man stared hesitatingly for

In his tense hand.

That man you've robbed of every dol

France Recognizes Repub1ic.

Paris, Nov. 1.-THE French gov
eminent has recognized the de facto
government of the Republic of PAN
ANA. The instructions forwarded by
Foreign Minister Delcasse to the
French consul at Panama authorize
him to have relations with the new
government. The instructions. are
substantially the same as those sent
from Washington to the United States
consul at Panama, and will have the
effect of giving the same recognition
of the new regime as the United States
has already given. A formal recog-
milton will follow later when the new
government is fully organized, but the
instructions of the consul definitely es-
tablish the attitude of France toward
the new republic The action of M.
Delcasse is not vet publicly known.

No Clash Expected.
With the exception of a brief cable
gram from Admiral Glass announcing
his arrival at Panama, no cablegrams
were received over night by the state
and navy departments. So it is pre-
sumed that the statu quo is being main
!; tanned there. There is no oxpecta-
ton here of hostile clash on the
isthmus in the immediate future, for it
is believed that the Colombian gov
eminent, When fully advised of what
has happened, will accept the inev-
table, and not attempt to send troops
to attack Panama in the face of the
United States naval vessels guarding,
the approaches.
The state department was notified
Tuesday that the Colombian govern
ment had established a censorship over
cablegrams destined for the interior
of Colombia reaching Buena Ventura.

; nication between Bogota, the capital
of Colombia, and the outside world
