comment is heard about the tow of
10 harges and two Philadelphia tugs

many watermen yesterday, for any
light tugs to break the heavy ice now

ed is a warm rain to rot the ice be-
fore navigation can be opened to Phil
adelphia. Conditions down the bay

EUROPE WANTS CANAL
Diplomatic Pressure by European Pow
ers Brought Upon Colombia.
GENERAL REYES DISCOURAGED.
No Phase OF The Matter Can be Brought
Before The Hague Tribunal. An
Isthmian Canal is the Desire OF all
the Great Powers of Europe.

Washington, Dec. 20. - Diplomatic
pressure will be brought to bear upon
Colombia by several European powers
to prevent war between that country
and the United States. Through the
representatives here General Rafael
Reeves has been informed of the futility
of any attempt by Colombia to re-take
Panama, declaring that it will result
only in precipitating Bogota into war
with the United States, and have said
to him that the result of such catas-
trophe Colombia herself cannot realize.
If this is not sufficient the represen-
tatives of these countries at Bogota
will be instructed to inform President
Marroouin that Colombia can expect
no sympathy from the European pow
ers in any movement she may make on
Panama which would inevitably in
volye her in war with the United
States.
The members of the diplomatic corps
have been informed by General Reyes
himself that he fears he can with diff
Guilty check his people much longer.
European diplomats have told General
Reyes that it is expecting TOO much to
expect this government to submit any
phase of the Panama matter to The
Hague. Several ambassadors have
earnestly advised the general to i'm
press upon his people the fact that
Europe wants the Isthmian canal and
that Colombia can expect no sympathy
from that quarter. 1t has been fur
Their pointed out by these diplomats
that the proffered sympathy of several
Southern American republics can avail
Colombia nothing in the event of war
with the United States.

A HORRIBLE STORY.
Scenes ct Chicago Funerals When
Union Pickeis Interfered.

Chicago, Dec "a. - Shrinking from
the espionage of union pickets and
fearful that funeral parties would be
attacked by the striking livery drivers,
many Chicago families have refrained
from announcing their bereavement
publicly.
In the vaults of several undertakers
lie the bodies of persons about whose
death the utmost secrecy is maintained,
and whose funerals will be postponed
until after the settlement of the
strike.
In other cases the stricken relatives
have arranged for evening funerals and
private burials of which no announce
ment is made.
The disgraceful scenes that attended
several funerals when union pickets
attempted to interfere with the re-
moval of bodies, have led health de-
pertinent officials to sanction the
secrecy.
The undertalxers have been informed
that unless public sasety demands it
burial will not be insisted on until
funeral parties shall be safe from mo-
lestation.
Practically no attempt was made by
funeral parties to reach the cemeteries.
